text: Great experience My bf and I stayed at MGM for nights and had a blast I had stayed at the MGM years ago as a kid and expected the rooms to be outdated but on the contrary the rooms gaming floors and restaurants were very contemporary and exceeded expectations nnMGM has a large pool facility including a lazy river for only guests to use The pools are adjacent to the Wet Republic Day Club and while I was using the pool Steve Aoki was at Wet Republic spinning away The music could be heard but at a distant level providing background music to to the area Once I got up to leave I walked around the facility which was when I discovered the lazy river If I did not have dinner plans I would have definitely tried it outnnHakkasan for my favorite dutch duo WW My bf and I were both on the guestlist but were told that we had to be at the venue by PM when the club opens at PM We decided to just get tickets which were for female and for male and these tickets guaranteed our entrance without having to deal with a rowdy crowd to get in After arriving at around AM there was no line at the door and we were in within minutes The club and decor is pretty standard the sound system was average but definitely still a great time nnMGM also has a large gaming space comparatively to newer hotels which is perhaps one of the aspects to how they maintain their competitive advantage With a wide variety of gaming tables and slots I would not hesitate to recommend this place to a friend who enjoyed a good round of blackjack or crapsnnThe only con about this hotel is that the location is a bit further from the center of the strip and would require more walking which I am normally fine with But in degree weather walking in the heat may become tiresome and exhausting nnI would definitely come back to MGM for another stay and would also recommend this hotel to a friend
