Default Nicest Poker Room in the US

I'm curious, any thoughts on what poker room is the nicest in the US? By this, I mean the physical room itself; high ceilings, nice lighting, etc.

Wynn is the nicest I've been in, but I haven't been in very many. I have seen a pic of a new card room back east that was gorgeous, but I don't know what it was.

I think that many objective people would say it's the Venetian, but I find the Wynn to be slightly more comfortable and nicer.

Probably the room where Andy Beal and his buddies play their home game.

As far as public card rooms, I would say Caesars LV.

Venetian by far. Wynn is pretty nice too. Bellagio is great to some extent.

If you want a calm place to play then Caesars is the best but most people find it boring a dull. (They've done a lot to add to the atmosphere of the room though)

Venetian has the most space between tables and has the least torn-up chairs. A lot of Wynn's chairs are trashed.

Planet Hollywood is the newest in Vegas, although the tables are the old ones with the wood racetrack that nobody likes. Stylish (though loud) room with lots of space between most of the tables.

Sry to disagree, but the Bellagio room is disgusting.
I don't know how or why it gets all the love that it does. I understand that at one point it set the standard for what a LV cardroom should be, but that time has come and gone, my friends. I get it: it has Bobby's room, where fanboys galore can kneel before their favorite wannabe-pros, but as for the rest of the room, it's filthy, way too cramped, staff is rude and obnoxious, they can't manage their waiting lists for crap, food service takes eons, and so on.
They seem perfectly content to rest on their laurels, perhaps unaware that they have been long since left in the dust by nearly every other first-rate casino in LV, who have figured out that you need to do more than offer a good selection of games to be an impressive cardroom.

Never having been to LV, how does the Borgata compare to LV card rooms?

Serious question:

Why does it matter? I'd take a room with juicy games over comfort any day of the week, only when the games are equally as good does comfort factor in.
