The shower and spa areas were comparable to those in the Pequot Spa area as were the fees for those specific areas. The indoor pool was a lap pool and the whirlpool was large enough for 20 but that was the only one. Unfortunately the room was 'ok' after we moved a few things around and the pool/spa was lacking. We really enjoy room service, spending time in our room, and the pool and spa areas as well as gaming so we were ok with the distance. We knew from the property map online that MGM was a long walk to the casinos, shops, entertainment, and restaurants. We loved the large sliding bathroom door. The bathrooms have large tiled showers with a tiled bench and glass doors. ( I was impressed at how clean it was under the nightstand.) The finishes and appointments in the rooms are nice. We ended up moving one of the large nightstands in front of the window with the office chair and small lounge chair. It was better, but still lacked a table and second chair. I called down to the desk and we were moved down the hall to a regular shaped room. The large screen TV pops up out of a stand at the very foot of the bed, making it even more cramped and awkward. The room layout was horrible! There was a 4ft cement pillar in the middle of the rounded window, the best view was from the beautiful 3/4 bathroom! The pillar made it impossible for us to pull the office chair and the one small lounge style chair together to have room service in the morning, there was no table to set it on either. We were fine with that, thinking it should be a great view. The first room we were given was on the rounded end of the building on the 22 floor. It was 3pm so I insisted on our free day being the following day as we were staying for a couple days. The spa manager did say that we could use the pool/spa area for free that day, the charge is normally $15.00 per person per day.

The lady at Check-In called the spa to investigate and was told there was no recolection of the call. I explained how we called the day before to clarify this specific detail. We arrived only to find out that there was a charge to use any part of the G Spa. We decided to call the G Spa and inquire, we were assured we would have all the same included ammenities available. MGM has a beautiful outdoor pool available on season. We were looking at the web site and trying to figure out if the MGM had the same indoor pool/spa setup as the Grand Pequot, where we normally stay. We stayed at the MGM for the first time this January.

For the past few years we have been taking a January mid-week mini vacation at Foxwoods.
