After I booked our stay at the Luxor I came to Yelp to see the reviews. After reading some I got a little discouraged to stay there. BUT, you shouldn't believe EVERYTHING till you've encountered it yourself. Everyone has their OWN opinions, these are mine.
We (my fiance, my 16mon old daughter, & I) stayed from Dec. 2nd-6th 2012 (Yes, it took me THIS long to review it. So sue me).
PROS:
-Free parking
-Upper level parking has entrance right into the casino.
-Fast check-in (especially for a Friday)
-Starbucks at practically every corner
-Buffet was decent (different review)
-Decent room (good enough to sleep in)
-Monorail between Mandalay and Excalibur
CONS:
-Those DAMN timeshare people
-Just 2 elevators! (Luckily our room was near one)
-Layout of the casino is kinda scattered for my taste
-FAR end of the strip (then again that can be a Pro for some people)
-Getting a drink took almost an hr, according to the mister (then again, they WANT you to spend more on gambling)
All in all, it was ok especially for the price. Although the room was a little dark, it didn't really matter cuz who wants bright lights after drinking all night? Lol! For the price alone...I'd stay there again.
