Great concert trip
We stayed at the Mandalay Bay because we attended a concert at The House of Blues also located at the hotel. It was a great concert experience. Not all the pools were open but it was winter so this was due to the time of the year. However, the hot tub by the bar was open and we had a good time. Check in and out was easy and fast and we were given a courtesy late check out without any problems. Also loved the shops connecting with the Luxor, got all my shopping done there. We were only there for two nights but it served our trip well.

We had a good time. Hotel very flexible.
The casino was the largest we encountered and didn't have a funky odor like Luxor. Vegas rocks!! Let the good times roll!

Good enough quick weekend
Beware - your reservation for a KING room doesn't stick. Upon check in at midnight (our flight was late) we were told (along with 4 other couples whom we were not with) that reservation is only good as long as the rooms are available! So we were stuck in a double queen. On top of it all - that voucher for 2 Free Buffets - nonexistant! I used to LOVE MBay. Service and attitude have really gone down hill. For some reason cabs were only allowed to drop guests off at the back entrance (near THE HOTEL) - we we got to drag our luggage thru the entire casino before even checking in! No bellman around!!!! Good thing they have great events for guests to attend - otherwise, we will return to the Encore on our next visit.

Mini-Bar and Comp drinks
The good and the bad: Bad - Don't touch anything in the mini-bar. I picked up a can and put it back down, and I was charged for it. Just leave it alone unless you like paying $4 for a can of pop. Good - If you like to drink for free, just go to the sports and race book and bet on the horses. The waitresses will take care of you, and even when my wife came in and sat with me, they gave us both free drinks as long as we wanted.

Always a great place to stay
I have stayed at Mandalay Bay many times since 2005. Each time the resort never disappoints. The rooms are clean, well appointed and very comfortable. The last two trips have had great views of the strip. We are looking forward to our next trip where we will most likely stay at Mandalay Bay.
