With ever trip to Vegas, I've marveled at how gorgeous Bellagio looked from the outside.  On my last Vegas trip, I finally stayed here as a hotel guest and I was disappointed at the room cleanliness and hotel staff service.  With any 5-star hotels, the service at the check-in is crucial because it is the first impression (based on interaction) guests get of the hotel staff.  I felt like I was checking into a Holiday Inn; it was very casual and unimportant.  \n\nWhen I got into the hotel room, there was a red stain on one of the blankets and so they came up to remove it from the room and said that they will replace it tomorrow (why the wait? I have no idea).  It took 3 staff members to take the blanket away and they didn't address the concern of cleanliness at all.  I gotta say that I'm surprised to see this listed as one of the 5-star hotels because it is only a 4-star in my book.  The rates at Bellagio are not competitive with other hotels with similar amenities and class, so I wouldn't choose to stay here again.  For a much better experience, I would recommend the Palazzo, Wynn or Encore resorts.
