This was our first trip to Las Vegas, which we spent lobby-hopping from Mandalay Bay to Circus Circus (sorry, Stratosphere, you are just too far away). My opinion is that this is a comfy room located in an elegant but not over-the-top Tower, in a town where many hotels are uber-flashy. The table faces a floor-to-ceiling window for a great view of sunrise. And a kitchenette stocked with plates, silverware, wine glasses, microwave, stove top, fridge, and coffee maker will help if you want to avoid the often cringe-worthy cost of food on the strip. It's roughly .5 miles to PH's Miracle Mile and .9 miles to the strip if you wander through MGM, which means you've got great access to the noisy crowds and lights and shows, but your pool area is calm (in January, at least) and there's no lingering cigarette smell. Alex is extremely friendly, polite, and responsive. We were able to check in early because he called the front desk within 2 or 3 minutes of us reaching out. Thanks Alex!
