The Trop is one of my standby favorites. They are constantly sending me calendars with discounted room rates, and even without those, you can almost always find a good rate online. Their location is pretty good -- you're a short walk via elevated walkways to MGM, NYNY and Excalibur (which has a free monorail to Luxor and Mandalay Bay).My wife and I really dig the kitschy old garden rooms. Some have big bathtubs and we get a kick out of the bamboo-framed mirrors on the ceilings. Another advantage to the back tower is that the elevator takes you directly to the pool. The pool area is large and the indoor portion of it stays open 24 hours.
