| - Stayed here over St. Patty's Day weekend with a girlfriend for a girl's weekend. We normally stay at Harrah's properties for free but decided to switch it up when I got a comp offer for Cosmo which included a free room, $300 in food and $400 in free play. Was not a huge fan of this place, even though the property itself is nice.
We had a resv for a terrace suite with 2 queen beds. The lady who checked us in told me she was "upgrading" me to a terrace suite with a king bed. Well, when I told her I should already have a terrace suite but with two queens (and I showed her the resv on paper from their resv dept) she told me that was impossible because the room didn't exist with queen beds. I was very confused how that could happen and asked lots of questions! A king bed with a pullout bed was not going to work for us ladies (I had just been to the chiropractor for a bad back/neck - wasn't sleeping on a pullout bed!!). She kept insisting that there is not a terrace suite with 2 queen beds and then finally admitted that "ok,...there ARE terrace suites with queen beds, but there are none available right now". Ok, well that's a different story! So we ended up in a "regular" room, no terrace with a city view. That was fine, although we were looking forward to the terrace suite and the experience. Our room overlooked the Bellagio water show and was ok.
Ordered room service on our first AM in the room and the service was spectacular. My friend had a hangover and mentioned it to the woman who set up our room service and she said she would take care of it with the bell desk. Soon after, the bell desk called us and double checked we wanted some aspirin from the gift shop and indeed it was delivered like magic soon thereafter. Very nice!
This place is THE place for the clubbers and those in the 20 something age category, So if this fits your likes, you are going to LOVE Cosmo. I am not a clubber and beyond that age by 20 years now. :-) So on the weekend we saw lots of girls that looked like they had made their way over to this place in their hoochie mama dresses and stripper heels on fake id's. That was interesting to walk through as we made our way to/from the casino and to/from our room. Somewhat entertaining....
We didn't get to experience much of this place, outside of the gift shop, lobby bar and some slot machines. Not enough time during St. Patty's Day weekend. It's definitely a beautiful place but I felt out of my "vibe" there. I'll probably go back to staying elsewhere, upon my Vegas return.
