This review is primarily for the casino itself.\n\nI have to say, I was a complete nay-sayer for Planet Hollywood taking over the Aladdin.  I sort of liked the Aladdin, and have NEVER liked any Planet Hollywood restaurant.  To me they're glorified Applebees, and I couldn't imagine the train wreck they would unleash on the former Aladdin space.\n\nHey, I can admit when I'm wrong.  This is one of those times.\n\nThe casino is slick and hip, done in black, red, and metallics.  It's totally different than most casinos with their crazy carpet and millions of colors (I'm looking at you, Bellagio...you too, Wynn).  PH's casino is almost understated - even the tables look sleek with their black felt tops.\n\nAs for the rest of the hotel, I did stay here when it was the Aladdin and really liked our room - it was enormous for the price, and had a large bathroom to match.  I also enjoyed the pool, but can't comment on how that's changed.  The shopping has remained pretty much the same since the switch, although now it's called the Miracle Mile instead of Dessert Passage.  It's still not as great as the Forum Shops...Miracle Mile has typical stores that can be found in any mall in America.
