IS THIS A GOOD PLACE TO STAY(MGM GRAND), AY INSIGHTS PLSAny insights on staying at SIGNATURES at mgm grand, lv?
My wife and I stayed there for a week. First the good things we loved about the hotel. NON SMOKING!!! it was a real pleasure that the rooms and the hotel was non smoking. The rooms are beautiful and spacious. The beds are super comfortable. If you can get a room with a balcony we would suggest it. Nothing like sitting out on the balcony with a drink watching the night passby. The fitness centre was very nice and wasn't too busy when we used it.
The indoor moving walkways were a welcome sight after a long day on the strip. The staff was extremely friendly and very helpful.
Now for the few downfalls as we saw it. One no pop machines on any floor. The little store in the lobby did not keep late hours. It is quite the walk to go through all of MGM but if you don't that it is worth it.
We will stay there again and hopefully the hotel will get the pop machines on the floors LOL
Have a great time there. We did.Any insights on staying at SIGNATURES at mgm grand, lv?
In my opinion no, as when we went in that neighborhood, there were more people soliciting for "other bad stuff". To me, safety was everything.
A thought to consider - if you want points, every casino has the "key card" to get your them. You establish a credit account.
They do a credit check on your, and they have your credit report.
Everyone knows what you owe, and every credit card you have, because when your name pops up for casino ID, they instantly have tons of information about you.
That is their "COMP" PROGRAM, and every casino has one.
If that is what you want, you will get just that.
No thanks, no comp program with my credit report advertised to anyone in any casino for me!
But if you want to have fun: Read on -
There are many deals at expedia.com and travelocity.com
lasvegas.com
There are casinos everywhere - so don't feel you have to lose all of your money at one location.
There are roller coasters on top of tall buildings.
There are white tigers on the first floor side area of the Mirage.
There are outside shows at Treasure Island.
Gambling:
There are many where you can lose $50 without even trying, then win $10, then win another $50.
It's easy to lose $100+ a day minimum, so if you're smart
you'll back away if you lose $20 - and try your luck another time, or another day.
Best location, and I stayed there January 2006, was the Mirage and it's next to Treasure Island, across from Venetian Grand canal, and down the street are Bellagio and the Eiffel tower.
You can walk everywhere, or take the bus when your feet get tired (very cheap).
Don't forget to lunch at the Eiffel tower - pricey but great, great food, and across from the fantastic Bellagio fountains that have themes - yes dancing fountains w/music when you're outside to hear.
Lunch also at the revolving restaurant -where you can see all of Vegas during the day - THE STRATOSPHER. The food was magnificent and you can see if you go at lunchtime - where the people of Las Vegas live and the mountains that surround it.
Las Vegas - I saw Jay Leno and he was non-stop for 1 %26amp; 1/2 hours of jokes, and we got the last 2 seats in the far section, and it was still somewhat close because the entertainment area was well done!
We went to see Mystere show - and the best is called "O" which means water in French. The stage actually opens for people to dive into, and then closes for people to walk on it.
So amazing.
At the end of 7 days, I was ready to come home. It's exciting, but not enough to say, someday I'd ever, ever consider living there. Nah, don't think so.
GOD bless us one and all, always.
