Bellagio. Wynn. Caesar's Palace. Aria. Trump International.\nOne of these does not belong. Can you guess?\n\nIf you guessed Trump, you're somewhat right since they don't have a casino.\nBut if you guessed Aria... DING DING DING DING DING, you're correct! Too bad I can't give you your prize ;)\n\nDon't get me wrong. Aria is a decent hotel... but I just don't get a good vibe while staying there, you know? And I'm all about good vibes. Like Rob P. and Marne S. said already, the place looks like an airport terminal. And that's before you even check out Cafe Vetra, their 24-hour restaurant. The cafe looks like LAX with random weird glass tunnels in various sizes placed around the floor -- what a waste of space. But alas, this review is not of the cafe, but the hotel.\n\nIt's definitely not a luxurious hotel... and I definitely don't feel safe walking around in the casino at night. Why? Because I have never encountered as many pervs as I did while staying here. I am not 21, yet men were approaching me in several interesting ways. One meowed at me, one tried to grab at me while walking by me, and another asked if I like to \"party hard\" at Aria's 24-hour convenience store. I told him I was underage and he quickly stuttered that he was joking and ran off to pay for his drink. I understand this is not the hotel's fault... but I definitely do not get treated like this by others at Wynn, Trump, or Caesar's. Just sayin'.\n\nTo be honest, it's like a MGM or Mirage in disguise... more spruced up if you will, with the modern architecture and advanced technology.\n\nEverything is also more complicated than it has to be. Parking, getting to the hotel, navigating through the casino to get to the guest rooms, finding your actual room since there are several corridors, and it continues on in the room. Everything is remote controlled - sheer & black out curtains, lights, television, bathroom lights, alarm clock, temperature, and so on. It was cool at first but if English isn't your first language, you might get a little confused. Sometimes it's just easier to do things manually, you know?\n\nThe guest room size is very small compared to Wynn, THEhotel, and Trump. Bathroom was of average size... with a great shower since it was connected to the tub. However, the water was weak. The beds were comfy and the morning call which automatically turned on the tv to the channel of your choice and opened the curtains came in handy -- though never actually woke us up.\n\nThank God our stay here was complimentary (over Christmas weekend, so this was probably the highlight of the stay). It's not a terrible hotel, I just don't get good vibes from it. Therefore, I'd probably never stay here again.
