Obviously this place is pretty Grand. It has everything every other hotel has, but I'd have to say, its pool is the best I've seen so far. The price isn't the cheapest, but we did manage to stay 4 nights for about $760. If you're not here for specific shows, I do recommend coming during the weekday to avoid crowding. We actually got a free upgrade to a Stay Well room because they had extra rooms when we arrived. Definitely take advantage of everything MGM has to offer instead of purely treating the hotel as a place to sleep. As I mentioned, the pool is amazing, they have many different pools, a lazy river, bars, a restaurant, waiters, and plenty of lounging chairs or even day beds and cabanas you can rent. They also have a decent gym with most of the equipment needed for a sweaty workout. Sometime around noon is a good time to go if you don't want to workout around too many people. There are many restaurants within the hotel but they do tend to be pretty expensive. Some of the cheaper "fast-food" is also littered around the hotel. I think MGM is in a pretty good location relative to the rest of the Strip. Across from MGM is the newly opened MGM Park which has Eataly, an Italian food marketplace with a restaurant. I highly recommend it. It's also close to a couple clothing shops. Again, make use of what MGM has to offer.
