| - Again, I was not a guest here, but simply an admirer. The view of the hotel from the footpath is breathtaking. The hotel is set back from the Strip a bit so there is a visual sense of depth and grandeur. The façade waterfalls that alternated speeds were really quite beautiful. The lobby is very modern and the casino's air didn't seem as smokey as others.
I was nearing my home base at Excalibur and decided to stop here because I felt lucky. I approached the cashier and asked to exchange cash for tokens. Ah, wrong! The cashier kindly says, 'the machines take cash now, sir.' Ah, how embarrassing! It's been ten years since I've been to Vegas and a lot has changed, including no tokens. LMAO!!
Trying not to be unnerved by my experience, I head to the video poker and play a few. Then I move to the 1 cent machines and start having amazing luck. After just $5, I'm winning close to $80. Very nervous that I'm going to lose it all, I slam on the cash out button and head back to the cashier with my voucher and receive my cash. Not a gambler, I hurriedly stuff my winnings into my wallet and head back to Excalibur for a quick dip in their pool to take advantage of my resort fees.
