Here is a rundown on my experience with the MGM Grand.\n\nThe good:\n--Arriving/checking in was quite easy with a lot of staff onboard and a very large entranceway for vehicles.\n--Though I am not a fan of Casino restaurants, MGM Grand does offer a wide variety of fine dining, casual dining, and fast food.\n--Proximity.  MGM Grand has its own exit to the Monorail, and the hotel itself is close enough to some of the other major casinos.\n\nThe bad:\n--I stayed in the West Wing, which had pretty below average rooms.  It was a very small room (maybe the smallest I've stayed at).  The mirrors that surrounded the room kind of faked you out in thinking that it was bigger than it was (occasionally running into the mirror isn't fun either).  Plus, the hallways around the West Wing were in bad shape, and they were a little hot as well.\n--I've had better luck at winning at Caesar's.\n--Avoid the Starlane Mall.  It reminds me of CityWalk in Los Angeles--just a bunch of trinkets and trash.  A waste of time.\n\nAll-in-all, MGM Grand is a decent hotel and good enough if you are staying in Vegas (though I would avoid rooms in the West Wing).
