text: It really breaks my heart to write a three-star review of Vdara. The hotel promises SO much. Cool lobby, no smoking or gambling...bright and light. The problem exists in the rooms themselves:\n\nWhy have kitchens when you don't supply kitchen supplies? We asked three times at the front desk for them, finally called down to get some, and then the housekeeper comes in with plates and glasses. Another trip...then we get a pot and a pan. Oh, and NO wine glasses in the suite. Really? We have to ask for those, too...and then housekeeping takes them the next morning.\n\nThe upholstered chair and couch were dirty. The bed was immaculate, though.\n\nThere wasn't any dishwashing detergent, sponges or towels for cleaning the dishes.\n\nHad to call downstairs to find the blow dryer (immediate thought was that there wasn't one). \n\nI guess we got spoiled with the level of service at Encore, where every need is anticipated. Vdara felt like they were just hoping that no one would ask for things.\n\nOn the good side, the location is great...right next to Aria, close to Cosmopolitan (great happy hours), walkway to Bellagio. \n\nSpecial kudos to the servers in the Marketcafe--service (and food) was amazing.\n\nOne tip--wine in the store connected to the Marketcafe is cheaper than Whole Foods, so save your money and buy there.\n\nWill we be back? Probably not. Too bad because the view in our room was amazing (corner suite facing the Bellagio fountains).
