The Mirage was a wonderful hotel!  The location was absolutely perfect!  It was on the side of the Strip that I felt safest and was located by some cheap eats as well.  Right across the street was a 24 hour Walgreens which we visited every night, there was a Denny's and also a McDonalds.  The staff was friendly, the room was very clean.  I loved the Volcano every night.  It was one of the coolest things I've ever experienced.  They had restaurants inside which we didn't dine at. Overall a great experience!  I'd highly recommend it and would love to visit again!
