Over the last few years, I've really overlooked the Venetian. The bars weren't as good as other resorts and the table games aren't the cheapest so I never really ventured there very much - which is surprising for the amount of Vegas trips I've taken over the years! \n\nI'm officially a fan. We stayed here for two nights in a comped suite. It was either the nicest or second nicest room I've stayed in in Vegas (other is West Wing room at MGM). When you walk in, there are two french doors to the side leading to the bathroom which has a separate restroom (strangely with no lock on the door...), big bathtub, separate shower, double sinks, flat screen TV, and sitting area with a big mirror and vanity mirror. The only real downside here was the toiletries - bitter orange scented? Yes, it smelled as rank as it sounds. Gross. \n\nPast the bathroom is a nice fluffy king bed and big flat screen TV. There is a nice big closet with my favorite...comfy robes! Then you walk past the bed and go down a few steps into the living area with a big sectional couch, yet another flat screen TV, DVD player, desk with internet access, and another favorite...remote-powered curtains! Beware - the mini bar is weight sensored, so no funny business. Also, there are a lot of lamps and whatnot in the room, but the lighting isn't very bright - it's nice most of the time, but sometimes you just need to see a lil' better. \n\nWe had one gigantic issue with the main entrance valet - estimated car in 30 minutes and didn't get it for and hour and ten minutes and they were jerks about it and we were crazy late to our Valentine's dinner reservation. What a bunch of bitches! The valet by the guest rooms was always fast and courteous. All of the staff (besides aforementioned valet guys) were very nice and made it a pleasure to stay there. They also happen to have one of the better poker rooms on the strip. \n\nIf they keep offering the free stays, I'll keep takin' 'em.
