Casino Spotlight: The Cosmopolitan Las Vegas.
The comments that I found about the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas Vegas are pretty impressive. From TripAdvisor and many others most of the posted reviews are quite good. Here's a sampling of a couple of the more observant and astute of those reviews

"I stayed at the Cosmopolitan January 22-26, 2013 in Room 4613 with a view of the Bellagio fountain.... absolutely gorgeous view. I have been to Vegas several times, and stayed at different hotel from Paris, Luxor, MGM suites, PH. The Cosmo was by far the most modern and beautiful hotel in Vegas  I highly recommend it. Although the restaurants were a... 

"Entering check in area the service was a bit slow but the person at the desk got me a wrap around suite that actually was facing the strip.

Does it really happen? Yes it does. Several years ago I was at the Pioneer Hotel and Gambling Casino in Laughlin NV when a lady hit the quarter Wheel of Fortune for over a million dollars. Many folks don't realize it but each state has it's own wheel of fortune jackpot that's managed by IGT (International Gaming Technology) so the odds might be better than you think.

We played for several years were happy to travel from Phoenix to Las Vegas or Laughlin on weekends. As traveling became more difficult, my wife and I found ourselves frequently visiting local Indian casinos and playing ‘short’ video poker machines. ‘Short’ being games with pay tables that had less than a positive expected return.  That’s frowned upon in the video poker world. One day I compared the
