Beautiful Hotel.
Do not stay here IF you are planning to go clubbin at XS, Surrender, Tao, MArquee, etc. Even though it is on othe trip, it is still way too far for you ladies to walk, unless you want to spend money ($$$) on the cabs. This hotel is more like a resort.
Nice and clean and new amenities. If you want to come and relax at the resort, this is a great place to stay! They also have many pools, including a lazy river. Just a note: they charge a $15 resort fee.
Check in time is after 3 pm but if there's room available, they will let you check in. Check out time is 11 am but you can request to check out later at noon if desired.
There's also a tram from Mandalay Bay that goes through Luxor and to Excalibur. (save you the walk but it is nice to walk through the hotels and see all the shops and pass by some of the exhibits.
I would definitely stay here again. Next time, I hope to try the pools!
P.S. cheapest CRAPS machine so far ($3)
