text: The big secret construction project nnFirst of all I want to say I have stayed at the property a dozen times in the past and it had been wonderful but in my opinion the ownership has ruined this property When I showed up to The Hotel at Mandalay Bay I had my st surprise pulling in the parking deck The hotel at Mandalay Bay is in the middle of a name change new hotel name Delano its having a identity crisis plus its going through a complete remodel the lobby is torn up god forbid if you want a drink in Vegas because surprise there is no bar no lobby furniture no restaurant no gift shop no coffee or snack bar the place is in giant construction mode you cannot even sit down in the lobby not even a chair to sit on or a couch to sit on I am in the lobby watching hotel guests sitting on the floor like there in a fine Japanese restaurant on the floor As much fun as that sounds not today Do not you think the hotel should have said something during booking How about an email prior to arrival This would at least have given you a chance to move to a different hotel Here the most insulting part they offered a credit on a room bill for the inconvenience And to this day they still do not mention the construction on their website Do yourself a favor STAY AWAY nWhile in my remodeled room in the new Delano my surprises just keep comingn The complementary high speed internet is really not high speed at all its MBPS but for dollars a day you can upgrade n The in room coffee is gone Cannot find it n The pillows were new and felt like left over walls of the old hotel like bricks I thought that went with the new earthy feel of Delano n And if you are looking for some place to hang your clothes after a long day of travel surprise there is no closet n Towels I called times to get more towels Surprise still waiting n Bedding in Vegas outside the temperature was degrees so surprise they had used goose down comforters on the beds let us heat up everything n Water in the shower this is the place you want hot the water ran for minutes and never got hot I will give the engineering people credit by the th day and I did check out they got the wait time for hot water down to minutes nIf you decide you want to bet in Las Vegas make the best bet you can and this would not be one of them Stay away
