text: YELP I really wish I could give stars on this one Let me start by saying that for the time period I was staying for work Previous years for the same trip I had stayed at the Luxor feel free to check out my review of that dump but this year the Luxor was about more than the Excalibur so I had no choice I have stayed at various Vegas hotels and the clientele here is interesting dirty smokey not my type Some great people watching for sure but where in Vegas is notnnOf all the casinos I have stayed in walked through gambled at this was the smokiest I would ever encountered Grossed me out Thankfully I got a non smoking room and the rooms were QUIET This was a welcome surprise considering the walls were so thin at the Luxor I could hear EVERYTHING going on in the neighbors place I got stuck with a queen room rather than a king so that was also a bummer Oh and the viewor lack of a view I guess I was looking right out into the rooftop airconditioning units there was an old beat up chair on the rooftop that moved every night I started to wonder if they were filming the next installment of the Hangover there nnMostly everything in the hotel is outdated rooms games carpet and not anything that truly appealed to me restaurant wise I did spend time at the pool which was fine It was day of pool season so might have been cold for some people but I was ready to feel some sun after a harsh midwest winter so I enjoyed a beer or out there nnOverall though I mean I got decent sleep the hotel was easy to navigate the staff was nice when I encountered them and I had no true problems so I cannot give less than stars on this one
