text: the luxors sortakind ofcoolfromtheoutside pyramid shape wreaks havoc on the hotel rooms within low ceilings angled windows that you have to lean back at a precarious angle to see out of and that even with the dark tint require the curtains to be drawn at all times to keep the room from heating up to uncomfortable degrees and malfunctioning plumbing we thought it was just our room that was cursed with a nonflushing toilet but friends who have stayed at the luxor in the past were quick to mention experiencing the same issue all i can come up with is that this is a HUGE design flaw in the pyramidal structure none of the rooms are directly above one another so it would seem that none of the pipes would be directly lined up in a vertical fashion resulting in poor water flow clearly i am not a physicist or engineer but that is the only thing i can think of to explain the issue since the bathrooms on the main floor of the casino seemed to function properly nnamenities in the hotel were mixed no good food options a minifood court with some nasty fast food about six starbucks and a buffet an ok spa and an ok pool they have systematically removed anything that might cast a shadow from the pool area to make the nonfee area as uncomfortable as possible and encourage use of the private area with umbrellas cabanas and shade to spare best i spent in vegas seriously nnthe location is ok as it is connected to mandalay but you are not extremely close to the rest of the casinos and will end up taking cabs a fair amount
