| - I have stayed here many times and it is the best hotel in Vegas.
On the most recent visit, the TV remote was swapped with a generic one so you cannot access any of the on-screen menus with the remote so you have to use the small touch screen by the bed which is terrible. They ended up giving me a partial credit for this which was nice.
The mattresses and pillows at Aria are BY FAR the best I have ever had, anywhere. It is just amazing.
The room layout is excellent - nice closet space, spacious bathrooms, and the whole automation system with the lights, curtains, tv, audio, is great.
They charge a $25 resort fee per night which includes Wifi, gym, and other services.
The finishes overall are very high-end looking, no complaints. They did forget to leave me soap and shampoo on my last night but I'll let that go as service has always been great besides that.
The restaurants are great and being next to Crystals you have all the shopping you need.
The Casino is pretty standard and dealers are very friendly. I play craps mostly and they have 12 tables and usually most are $10-15 and not too crowded.
One complaint is the limited breakfast options. The Jean Philippe bakery is always packed and fairly expensive with limited seating. One tip is you can go to the other side of the Casio (past Deuce next to the Valet) and they have a small coffee shop with some of the same Jean Philippe pastries with hardly no line.
Room rates are pretty good and usually lower than other high-end properties like MGM or Bellagio. The only downside is if you come here for a trade show, there is no monorail to the convention center.
