| - Aside from all of the walking it takes to get from your room to the rest of the casino and resort, I would say that it is a pretty good hotel! (And by walking - I mean, prepare to walk a really looooooooong time to reach your room! I rented a car this past trip and stupidly parked it in their parking garage (which is on the opposite side of the casino from check-in)! So after you walk through the entire length of the casino, you arrive at the check-in area and then re-trace about half of your journey to get to the elevators that take you up to your room. Good thing the place is air conditioned!
In terms of our room, it was actually pretty cool with all of the automated controls that are controlled through a tablet - though over our stay, the system became pretty slow and non-respondant at times and the 'wow-factor' soon faded pretty fast. In addition, the layout of our room was kind of weird with the walk-in closets taking up a good amount of living space that could be improved on. Also, there was this one annoying light in the bathroom that would flicker - as it threatening to die out any minute. Calls to the front desk to get it replaced went unnoticed and were almost nonexistent. In addition, I don't know if it was because the cleaning service was lazy because we were at the very end of the hallway in the corner of our floor, but two of the four days we stayed did not get cleaned! Calls to the front desk again were met with empty promises about having someone come up while we were out of the room.
One thing I did enjoy about the Aria was their fitness facility, which was included in their resort fee and not additional! The weights and equipment was new and seemed to be maintained and cleaned regularly. In addition, the bottled water and fruit complementary provided was a nice touch!
While I didn't get to enjoy any of the other amenities at the Aria, I can attest that my room was extremely quiet and I was able to get some quality R&R and prep for my meetings. Additionally, the location was pretty central to the strip and conveniently connected to the Crystals shops.
I have stayed at much better places in Vegas and also stayed in much, much worse places, and thusly would say that it is about the middle of the road for me. The casino was on the smaller side, but I was able to make some decent money at the blackjack tables so I'm not going to complain.
If you were to stay here, one thing I would recommend if you are going to rent or bring a vehicle is to definitely valet your car! It will save you a good 30+ minutes (maybe more if you are a slow walker!) and is definitely worth it!
