Read this article in the Review Journal, they say the route under the tunnel makes the trip about $26 as opposed to the direct trip of about $16.

We usually rent a car, but the last time was a short stay and we were told to take the buses that go directly to your hotel or 2-3 in the same area. We walked out of the luggage area and the booths were just outside. The cost was only $7 each way. We waited about 5-10 mins and were at our hotel in approx 15-20 mins after dropping after other folks at 2 other closeby casinos. We were told to call 24 hours for a pickup for our return flight, we did and arranged a time. The bus arrived and we paid the driver and were in lots of time for our flight.
Note: Only pay for one-way at a time, (same cost), as a couple on our bus had bought a return ticket from another company and had to pay again and get a refund from the first company.
A bit longer then a taxi but cheaper.

the strip they should take the surface streets up to the mgm then down the strip, but if it is the wrong time of the day this could take an extra 30 minutes, at that time they should cut up towards ellis island and parralel the strip until they get to the street your hotel is on.
Downtown the freeway.
boulder hwy they should go out trop.
Sunset station the 215 away from the strip east towards lake mead.
