Mirage has become one of my favorite destinations to stay on the Vegas strip lately. I love the remodel rooms, the classy brown updated look, and the area it is located. JET is not bad either. \n\nHowever, this review is more the the 1 Bedroom Penthouse Suites. Something is serious amiss here. The hotel has been completely remodel so I think these expensive floors would be the same too. Last weekend, the gang of us came to the Mirage and booked 2 Penthouse Suites and where totally excited about it. We cruised up to the Top floors, open elevator door and a draft of smoke hits you like a runaway prius. WOW! I am getting 3rd hand smoke. It's okay considering 7 of the 9 guys smoke. We looked around and the decor was dated, extremely early 90s dated. The wall paper was old and crusty. We open the double door and looked around. It was quite impressive. The room was huge. However, old decor, Jack Griswold from National Lampoons would be proud. They don't have an IPOD jack. They have a 32inch tube TV. So we preparty up watching Lakers take on the Thunder - Victory, split up the rooms and I dedicated 1 non smoking suite. Thank goodness. Then the night came, every other room on this floor had a suite party, the hallway was so loud, it sounded like a Friday night dorm room back in college. Everyone left their doors open, drinks and bottles were on full display. The walls were insulated so it was rather quiet unless you count the base traveling in every direction, but hey, everyone was prepartying. I would not recommend these suites to impress a chick, rather to party it up with a group of people. It is like 1100 sq ft of fun. It is not for the romantic. For the old decor and 2nd 3rd and 4th hand smoke, 3 stars.
