| - Ever since watching the first Ocean's 11, I've wanted to stay at the Bellagio. The opulence! The glamour! Did we get that during our 3 nights? Yes...but we couldn't help but think the B is a bit...outdated.
Don't get my wrong. From the stunning seasonal displays in the lobby, to the impeccable room service orders, and the famous fountains...the B knows now to treat guests.
However, after spending time in the newer Aria and Cosmopolitan properties, we couldn't help but feel like the Bellagio needed to update itself.
The standard king rooms, still featured tube TV sets. Our shower door was squeaky, and the shower head was caked in green sludge and mineral deposits. The toiletries were in nice bottles but smelled like shampoo ad conditioner from the Double Tree. I for some reason expected Bvlgari or like the W hotels, Bliss products.
Again, don't get me wrong. I appreciate the spacious room, and the marble and granite...and the location can't be beat, smack dab in the middle of the strip. But for the money, I'd rather have something more contemporary, with more "wow" factor.
