I just returned from Vegas today and I am bummed about the Monorail system. I have be going to LV for many, many years and I thought the monorail was going to be an improvement over the one between MGM and Balley's. To begin...I used the old one to get halfway down the strip...for free. Now I find out that the new one costs $10. I went to MGM to get on it...and it was shut down for and undetermened amount of time....They said the wheels keep falling off...What does that mean???? It remained shut down the whole time I was there. I guess that was good...I didn't waste $10 like a lot of other people....nor did I waste alot of time walking to any of the monorail stations after that. Then the real bad part...iI found out it dumps you out at the Hilton...2-3 long....long blocks off the strip...oh boy more walking and walking.


Anyway....if you are going to LV in the near future...mark the monorail off as a free or good thing.

Take the city bus and buy the $5 day pass.
