In January I was in Vegas and a friend was staying at the Vdara.  I liked the modern look of the spacious room and their view of the Bellagio fountains so I suggested that my friends and I stay there on our April trip.  Ugh... not worth over $200 a night.  \n\nFirst, through a reservation error, we didn't get a fountain view.  They were booked so we couldn't change and ended up with only a view of the parking garage and delivery trucks.  Gross.  Then, we were charged a $25 resort fee... which would have been fine if the amenities that were included in the charge were nice.  But they weren't.  The internet that's 'included' didn't work with our cell phones, only the laptops... slowly. If the pool would have been a nice one, that would have been cool... but it's not.  And, the 2 'complimentary' waters are about 4oz bottles... if that.  That's almost insulting and definitely laughable since you're in the desert.   So much for a 'resort fee'.  They don't even provide dryers in the bathroom.  \n\nThe rooms look nice but there is nothing open 24 hours so if you get in late, you have to walk over to Aria for food/water/etc.  Also, when we tried to call down for Valet they apparently didn't feel like taking call downs.  Not a crisis but just an inconvenience when you're in a hurry to get to a show and thought you could have your car waiting for you.  \n\nThese things I didn't realize when I was a brief visitor at my friend's room.  I only saw the nice room, bathroom and kitchenette.  \n\nNeedless to say, there are so many other options in Vegas, I won't be back.  \n\nWon't see ya there.
