Vdara is such a cool hotel! There is no casino here - so it's a lot quieter, and there is no nasty tobacco smell, or the smell of various attempts to mask tobacco odors.\n\nI stayed here three nights. My room was on the 47th floor. When I first walked in to my room, I was surprised by how dim the room lighting was. It's as if it was intentional to form some sort of mood.\n\nMy room had four different rooms - a kitchenette area, a bathroom, a living room, and a bedroom. Both the living room and bed room had large flat panel HD TVs - and with a respectable number of HD channels!\n\nThe kitchenette had a small mini fridge, as well as a minibar stocked with water, soda, beer, booze, and snacks. There is also a two burner stovetop and a microwave.\n\nThe bed was very comfortable. The mattress was nice and firm, not mushy.\n\nThe door has an electronic lock that is activated by a chip in your room card. You wave or move the card close to the sensor on the door and it unlocks. There is also a couple of buttons inside the door that control a light in the hallway right next to the door. The color of the light provides information to the maid/cleaning staff - as to whether the room is available to be cleaned, or if you want privacy (blue light) or if you are specifically requesting maid service (green light).\n\nThe staff are friendly and very accommodating. I had set the light to blue one morning and when I left my room for the day, I forgot to change the light color. When I got back to my room, there was a light flashing on my phone indicating I had a message. When I called to get the message - the message was a query as to whether I needed my room cleaned. Wow! Very thorough!\n\nThe room also has power window shades that are operated by a wall switch. The room also had free internet access - available via ethernet or Wifi.
