PROBLEM: Okay, stayed here Mon., Oct. 21st - Fri., Oct. 25th. OMG! What a nightmare! I will never stay here until renovations are done. There is two major PROs...price (it's so cheap!) and location, location, location. Seriously, you're dab smack in the middle of the strip. Half my stay was on my boss' dime and the other half was comped because I have a players card. Bear in mind that this used to be the old Imperial Palace until Caesar Properties bought it. It's like the forgotten child of all their hotels.

Mon., October 21st: I checked in really late because I had a late flight into Vegas. For late check-in, that was sure a LONG line. Around 11pm-ish I begin the check-in process, when I asked the lady at the front desk helping me...What kind of room did my boss book me in? She replies Classic. Eww, I know that means the cheap room! My players card for my half had me for a Deluxe room. She then proceeds to tell me that they also don't have anymore non-smoking rooms that are Classic unless I wanna upgrade to Deluxe which is $10 more per night. (Seriously, imagine if I was asthmatic!) I declined because I still had to pay for the resort fees ($15/night for two nights) and said that I'll deal with the smoking room and change to a non-smoking, if I needed to. That's not the bad part yet! First of all I couldn't find the room! I went around and around looking for lower level elevators. MANAGEMENT: YOU NEED TO PROVIDE MAPS! It took me more than 30 mins to try to find it and then I found a house phone and they sent security to where I was because the room is below the casino level. Yah, that is weird! When I get to the room, it looked like the 80's decor threw up in there and stayed there. I would've taken a picture but I was so horrified I wasn't thinking. Stained carpeting, ugly stained wall paper, and dingy yellow bathroom. I didn't smell like cigarette smoke until I turned on the air conditioning and was disgusted. I turned off the AC and then bolted for upstairs.

Tues, October 22nd: Past 12am. I told them to just upgrade me because I didn't want to deal with a smoking room anymore. I told her it was NASTY! She tells me they no longer have king sized beds, just 2 queens. (Roll my eyes) She tells me that I can exchange the room tomorrow. Ugh! Fine! So she puts me on the 10th floor. I enter my room which is so much more easier to find and was happy with what I saw until through investigation. It freaked the hell out of me that my balcony door was wide open. I slowly approached with my purse in case I needed to clobber someone. Now here's another thing that sucked...the sliding door would not close. I pulled, pushed, and tried to lift the door. Ugh! I had to call down stairs and they had to send maintenance up. Finally after 15-20mins someone shows up and finally gets my door closed. Trust me at this point I'm still not happy but the room was a lot more better than the basement. LOL

In the morning, I went to the gym since it came with my resort fee. I also didn't really unpack my stuff because I had the intention of changing rooms. After my endorphins were up, I had breakfast at Hash House a Go Go and vented my troubles to a coworker who apparently didn't have the as much trouble as me. His girlfriend did agree that the carpet in the rooms were icky and the place was really outdated. Around 1pm I packed up my stuff, left my luggage in my room, and went downstairs to change my room. OMG! That check-in line is ridiculous until...I spied a glimmer of hope. WHAT?!?! There's a check-in line for Gold Card Player members?!?! That's me! :) OMG! And there's not a single person in line. Thank God! I explain my whole story and the situation, the woman sympathizes with me. I ask her is there any way to just combine my reservations so I don't have to move half way thorough my stay and she does it. (BTW, she told me they are not going to start any room renovations until JANUARY 2014. What?!?! Yah, crazy!) On top of that...I didn't pay anymore resort fees for the rest of my stay and she credited the $20+ I spent upgrading my room. She put me on the 18th floor...yup it's below penthouse. :) Not bad! I got everything I wanted for the most part in a room. After all the moves, my only complaint was the bed wasn't as fluffy with a down comforter like my 10th floor bed. Oh well!

Wed., Oct 23rd - Fri., Oct 25th: Another complaint. I don't think there are enough maids there. Or they just don't know which rooms are being used because I had to call housekeeping each day to come clean my room. :/

Would I stay here again? ONLY in desperation. There are so many other hotels to stay at the same price but in my situation I didn't have a car (like I normally do) so this location is ideal if you don't have one. Walking everywhere and taking the deuce (bus) was easy! Hmm...re-review maybe 2014...LATE 2014! LOL

PROBLEM: 7/6/13

The Pyramid appeal stops at the lobby here. We were stuck in Las Vegas for an extra day because of a plane crash in San Francisco. Being an upper-tier member of United, the airline offers us a crashpad at Luxor, which, to me, is a dump.

*Pyramid room 13011. Piping hot even the curtains were drawn---the gurgling air condition unit is barely working. We decided to drop off the bags and luggage, go out to grab food and come back to see if the room had cooled down. About two hours later we returned, the room hardly cooled, and the hallway outside was way cooler than the room No refrigerator. No ice bucket. No bottled water. WTF?!

*Called front desk and got the response that they were completely full house. The clerk said she would send an engineer to examine the a/c but could not say how soon the engineer will be there. After the airport delay and cancellation, we were not in the mood to be out and about in the heat. We just wanted to rest so we asked for a new room. The request was denied by Shelley.

*She did offer a room on the 2nd floor in the Pyramid, but only if the engineer came to confirm a/c unit is not working. *SIGH* Later they relented to give us the room so we packed up again and went down to front desk again to exchange room. Another clerk, who was way more sympathetic with our situation, offered us free upgrade to a room on 7th floor in the West Floor. So much better, and cooler, with much better fixtures and amenity.

*New room (West Tower 7212) is nice enough, but nothing like what I'm used to. They have NO IN-ROOM WIFI despite the mandatory $18 resort fee. No complimentary bottled water. No refrigerator. No rain shower.

Overall this is not my kind of hotel. Poor choices of restaurants, more catering toward the chain-restaurant/fastfood crowds. Hallways reek of cigarette. Poor noise insulation. It is no wonder this is offered as a free crashpad. Luxor is definitely on the low end of the Strip. Tropicana across the street has a makeover so spare yourself from this horrible hotel if you prefer a room in the $30-$60 price range. We didn't even bother to hang around here, spent most of the next 32 hours in Mandalay Bay.
