21. CONS: Rooms that have seen better days, very bad perfume cover smell in casino, Phantom of the Opera and Jersey Boys music playing incessantly (I love both these shows and was actually interested in seeing the revamped shorter version of Phantom but quickly got over this idea after being berraged with Phantom music constantly), mold in bathroom shower stall, no fans in bathroom, no usable fridge in room (very annoying), very dim lighting (to hide the wear and tear?).

"OK but there are others for less money " Read full review on TripAdvisor   3/31/2011 Vote      
24. The stench in the toilet room was unbearable, a smell I can only describe as the smell of rotting flesh, such as a dead rat or mouse, and it was coming from a small vent just below the ceiling.
"Venetian Stinks!! " Read full review on TripAdvisor   2/21/2011 Vote      
25. I checked the toilet room, the door was left open and the smell was still present but not as bad, I suspect they just sprayed some air freshener and left the door open.

32. We got off to a bad start- long lines for the two open registration stations, in front of the 10 un-staffed ones, our non-smoking room smelled like cigarette-smoke-covering product so we moved to another, our door's key reader didn't work and had to be replaced.

52. There were many things which made my stay at the Venetian terrible - food poisoning, arrogant staff, endless lines for service, TV not working properly, tired hotel room furniture, horrible smell throughout the hotel, dishonest housekeeping staff - but the one that topped it off was when I returned to my room after a night out and I found my hotel room door open - not just unlocked, but open to all who walked past it.

"Beware the pool " Read full review on TripAdvisor   6/1/2009 Vote      
60. Likes: Needing to show your room key to security before getting to the elevators to the rooms; in-room safe; layout was easy to learn, once you walked it once; casino was well kept and enjoyable; plenty of shopping and restaurants (Grand Lux was wonderful for quick, large, inexpensive meals - run by the same company as the Cheesecake Factory); we didn't mind the floral fragrance, although it was strong at first (can't smell it in the rooms); easy self-parking access; easy strip/'back street' access; overall very secure feel, compared a couple of other places we were.
