We are Vegas veterans and have stayed in many different types of rooms along the Strip. I can say that Mark's place is the best in terms of location, comfort, ease of access, and amenities. The Vdara is on the Strip but does not have the crowd and hassle of a hotel/casino. But it does have everything else including a pool and a well equipped gym. The entire building is smoke free. The unit is more like an apartment and less like a hotel room and is quite comfortable and very clean. It is a very short distance to the big hotels such as the Aria, Cosmo, and Bellagio, and the view of the fountains is memorable. I would not hesitate to recommend this apartment to anyone wishing to visit the LV Strip.
