In that case, I don't understand your statement that you have more trouble getting comped rooms at M-life than Cosmo. It sounds like you get rooms everywhere.

I do find that Cosmo is much more generous with freeplay than M-life, but I think that's intentional on their part. They are well aware that people sign up for multiple offers at multiple hotels and collect the freeplay, and they don't want that. So they give very little (or no) freeplay and very generous tournament entries instead. You get the same (or more) value but you have to actually be there, in the casino.

Cosmo is a very nice hotel (I like it there a lot) and there are gorgeous women everywhere (which I also like a lot) but my main issue with it is that it's only one hotel. The nice thing about M-life is that, when I'm in Vegas, I have a large selection of restaurants, nightclubs, pools and bars to go to, and I can charge it all to my room and get comped. I might go to places at 3 or 4 different hotels in a single trip. If I'm at Cosmo I'm stuck paying ot of pocket if I want to go anywhere else. Sticking to one hotel might be fine for a trip or two but it gets old if you go 10x per year.

Also, I don't think that Cosmo is THAT generous. I went from Sterling, blew past Gold, and all the way to Platinum in a single trip and my offer actually went down from my initial offer. So, sure, I can get free rooms, but I can get that anywhere.
