MGM is a nice place, we like the Monte Carlo or Luxor, they tend to be less expensive, but still decent rooms. From the MGM. you'll be able to see plenty of casinos there on the South strip. For transportation up/down the strip, you can't beat the monorail. Taxis are expensive, I avoid them unless I know I'm going to be ripping drunk upon leaving.
Downtown (Freemont St.) is maybe worth going to at night for the free street show. Otherwise, I'd stick to the strip. Downtown is definitely old school, pretty dirty and somewhat scary.
Have fun, and always bet on red.

Obviously you should listen to the guy with "Coaster" in his name re: roller coasters. I honestly just use it for stress relief when the absolute MORONS in the poker games there suck out on me. Those poker games were the juiciest in town 3 and 4 years ago and very profitable but juicy means big swings, baby. Haven't been there since then though.
NEVER bet on red. NEVER bet on black. Green is RIGHT OUT. (Advice void if you find a "single zero" roulette table downtown, then go nuts following a good strategy, make sure you get your comps)
For the best bang for your buck, learn how to play BlackJack, Craps and video poker. Craps is quite possibly the most fun you can have on the casino floor.

That guy is really honest and offers every bit of knowledge for free. If you want to sign up for any of the casinos you might consider giving him your affiliate click. If you want to actually make money playing online blackjack, seek out "blackjack whoring". I won't post any more unless everyone is convinced I'm not a shill or an affiliate (I'm not, I made my money blackjack whoring and got out)
