If you want to be closer to the main strip and action, opt for a different location. In the future we would stay in the main MGM grand. Otherwise it was a private residential feel. You will feel safe because it’s gated and need access pass for elevators. It’s nice because you have access to all the amenities, the spa service was excellent and the gym was clean.
Communicated with host well in advance about accommodation for name at check in and the hotel was unaware and refused to allow us to check in, However the host got back to us about 20-25mins later after we reached out and resolved the issue. And room was ready to check in before time which was nice given the circumstance.
