We stayed at the Aria labor day weekend and we weren't disappointed. The location is perfect! It's right in the middle of the strip and is connected to other hotels by tram. We were seeing a concert at the Cosmo, so it was very convenient. IT was also close to the MGM grand and other hotels with night clubs worth visiting. The casino was nice, but not too crowded and I really enjoyed the pool. It was easy to sit and relax without having to fight people for a lounge chair. The rooms were clean and moderately priced, but I have to take away one star since they did not service our room when we put the light on. After I called and complained, they did the room within half an hour, but I think if they have a light to tell them to "service" the room, they should do it at that time. We were out from 6pm until 3am and our room wasn't serviced. My advice, call housekeeping when you leave the room so that the "rush service" you room. Other than that, our stay was pleasant and the staff was super friendly. Would definitely stay here again!
