Once you step inside the hotel the first thing you will notice is the large bronze lion, the symbolic lion that represents MGM. After a friendly MGM Grand staff at the front desk checked me in I arrived into my room and I was pleasantly surprised and was welcomed with a #iheartMGM dessert tray made from Corner Cakes. In no time I devoured nearly all of the sweets on that tray besides the tallest chocolate centerpiece that reads “Welcome to MGM Grand and the I <3 VEGAS Experience”. The room I stayed in was a comfortable king-sized bed, with a mini fridge filled with alcohol, a safe, a television with enough USB/cable outlets, a clean and large bathroom that was almost about the size as my first apartment on the sand at the beach in Long Beach, C.A. As a budget traveler staying in Airbnb rooms, crashing couches like a couchsurfer or a pull-out bed, staying at a friend’s guest room, or on the floor in sleeping bag in a tent, MGM Grand is luxurious and fabulous.
There was one morning of room service. I ordered the pancakes that come with eggs, ham, and sausages. The portion was bigger than I had expected and if I knew in advance I wouldn’t have also ordered frosted flakes cereal. Delightfully surprised. Overall the room was the cleanest and the biggest hotel room I’ve stayed in so far.
There are endless of activities you can do within MGM Grand Hotel such as shopping, gambling, having a drink at the bars, dining at the restaurants, entertainment, and much more. This made staying at MGM Grand a great choice. Activities and a great room! MGM Grand is definitely recommended for great service, friendly staff, and they ensure you have a pleasant stay.
