| - Planet Hollywood makes me LOL.
Want to know why?
-It used to be the Aladdin, and the remodel was done rather half-assedly, you can still see middle eastern/arabesque motifs all throughout the casino and mall.(Hell, the buffet is even still named the Spice Market. Sounds more like something you'd find in Morocco rather than Hollywood)
-If MTV was a building you can go to, this would be it(more so than even The Palms and Hard Rock).
-They're desperately trying to make you feel like you're in South Cali with Pink's Hot Dogs, a mall called the Miracle Mile, the EXTRA lounge(which is named after a celebrity news show which isn't much better than a tabloid), etc....
It tries so, so hard. And it fails. The Miracle Mile is definitely an improvement from what it was originally like so that's a plus. I still want to try the Spice Market Buffet but I've heard way too many stories about long toilet trips resulting from someone eating a Pink's hot dog and every other restaurant just seems overpriced or overhyped. Also, can't lie, but I do want to see Peepshow.
Don't hate the place, but I'm definitely not a fan.
