This is a two-star hotel, so I'm giving it two stars to be accurate. But I'm also not thrilled with the Excalibur. So the rating can be explained either way. \n\nWe're talking cheeeeeap rooms here, people. I paid $30 a night to stay here for a week; compared with NYNY across the street charging $190 on the same days. When I travel for work, I travel cheap. So this dumpy place works. But no way would I skimp and book this place for a vacation. If you're like me and enjoy luxe and glam accommodations with your travel, stay the hell away from here. \n\nSome irksome things: \n\n- no one at the valet when I rolled up around midnight on a week day\n- no one wanted to help me lug my giant printer up to my room (liability reasons)\n- no one in general to take my luggage (so I had to make two trips)\n- two lights were out when I got to my room\n- cord to the wired internet was broken\n- my door wouldn't auto-lock on closure one night, so I had to slam it multiple times until it decided to wise up...\n- ...this turned out to be a bad idea, because I got back to my room and it wouldn't open T_T\n\nBut this whole review isn't one big downer. Any staff I actually encountered throughout Excalibur, for the most part, really amped up an otherwise lackluster stay. 99% of the people working here are all smiles, all service, all the time. It's nuts.\n\n- David, technician, just awesome. Great personality, super fast, knowledgeable at what he does. Doesn't come on up into your space and leave a mess.\n- Angel, front desk, I actually like you. I know how it is to be exhausted and just wanna go home, and you know what, I'm glad that whole thing we had to deal with worked out.\n- Everyone working at Dick's who would \"compliment\" my blue hair every day. You dudes are funny.\n- People trying to get you to sign up for Mlife. How can you guys be so friggin friendly after hours of getting the shutdown??\n- The security officer in Tower II who was such a gentleman! I'm sure watching a tiny woman carry an industrial sized printer around would worry any chivalrous heart, haha; but he was so courteous and helpful, I'm sad I don't remember his name!\n\nAlas, there are so many more names I can't recall. The first technician who came by to fix my internet. The guys working the valet at 1 am. The security who had to bust me into my room. I could go on and on. Bottom line, know that every one of these awesome blossoms keep the gears of Vegas well oiled and contributed to a work-stay that was far more enjoyable than it should have been. Peace.
