I really enjoyed this hotel and would recommend anyone stay here. \n\nPositive:\n-  Perfect location on the script.\n-  Brunch at the buffet was delicious and the line moved pretty fast for  \n   a Saturday at 12pm.\n- The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable.\n- The bath towels were big and soft, unlike most hotels where they \n  are thin and rough against your skin.\n- The service was good.\n- We managed to score an awesome room rate at $109 a night from \n  Thursday-Sunday. Sign up on their website for the email deals. \n- At check in we were told there were only smoking rooms available. I \n  understand a non-smoking room is not guaranteed, but the Bellagio\n  worked with us. It took a few minutes of persuasion, and finally we  \n  were upgraded to a lake view room that was non-smoking. Yes!\n- The pools are open year round. I've only stayed at 6 hotels on the \n  strip and every other one is closed in the winter. It was too cold to \n  swim, but it's nice to have the option if you want to. \n\nNegative:\n- One of the bouncers at The Bank was incredibly rude. We asked \n  him a simple question and he gave us the raised eyebrow/sneer \n  combo. He muttered something and then quickly turned away from \n  us. I hate people who feel like they are on a power trip by \n  treating you like dirt. My theory is that men who show no respect are \n  lacking in another area. \n- When you walk out of the lobby to the strip on the sidewalk to the  \n  right, you will cross this street where many cars crossing ignore the \n  stop sign. Be careful here so you don't get run over.
