First time staying at the Mirage, and I was very happy with the experience.  Awesome pool, cabana at Bare on the first day, ridiculously fun bartenders at Kokomo's every night that kept our party going until (gulp!) 6 in the morning...not to mention Carnegie Deli *right there*.  The RhumBar is killer, and the spa will help you \""detox so you can retox\"" right up there with the best of them...We literally had everything that we needed right inside the hotel, and we appreciated that there was no smell of smoke anywhere we went.  \n\nRooms were comfy, and soundproof! Did not hear any of the outside noise that other yelpers here have complained about.  \n\nPool service was great, though I docked one star for the non-hotel guests that seem to make it in.  Club promoters seem to have no problem, though we can't really complain about the club comps that they provided our group.   Still though, makes you wonder.  With the pool that packed, they would do good to make it a bit more exclusive...
