Wow this place is humongous.  It's iconic.  You really can't miss the large green hotel and the large MGM Lion.  The location is on the corner with 3 other large and iconic casinos as well: Tropicana, Excalibur and NY NY.  And I don't like it.  It's sterile.  Big is not always better.  You have to walk miles just to get around here, and that's just inside.  A nice shopping complex is here, but doesn't compare to the Caesars Forum and the Venetian Grand Canal Shoppes.  Your hotel room, all towers are a million miles from the casino.  It's a shorter walk to California than it is to your room.  The large lobby is impersonal and crowded always moving slowly.  The car valet is among the slowest in Vegas.  The casino rewards programs, linked to many great Vegas casinos doesn't seem to reward you.  It's just like their slot machines; they think your money.  The only nice walking distance casino is NY NY, so even if it seems there is a lot to do, there really isn't.  Stay mid strip where there is more action and more choices of gambling and activities.
