(Some hotels are way overbuilt and that is a HUGE problem) The way the corporations see it is that someone is coming in next week with their friends to trash it again anyways since people who go to Vegas party hard sometimes :-)

    This makes me sad : ( ...I went to Excalibur the week they opened when I was REALLY young and it's one of my first memories. I pretty much grew up with Vegas being my families "vacation spot" as we would got twice a year when I was growing up. When I turned 21, I ended up going once a month (I was manager at Best Buy and could write my own schedule) and it was the best at that time in 2005! I not only got to enjoy going to Vegas 1-3 times a year growing up in the 90's and getting to enjoy all the kid orientated stuff from the "era for kids" in Vegas. There will never be another time like the 90's for going to Vegas as a kid, that is for sure. Like all of the themed hotels that are so big and distinctive are from that era...Excalibur, Luxor, Mandalay Bay, New York, New York, MGM Grand, Treasure Island, etc. I think me and the people born in the 80's REALLY had it good, we got to experience things that have not been and never will be experienced again. I live in Orange County by the way, so that's why it was possible to go there as often as I'm describing. It's only a 3-3.5 hour drive if you haul up the 15 freeway taking the 91. It's pretty much considered Southern California part 2 haha..

    I stayed at the Excalibur for my first time in LV in 2011 for my 21st. Those same chairs were in the room then and apparently now. Even as an extremely inebriated 21 year old guy, I was grossed out by the room. When we got to our room it had a "smell" to it. Went to take a shower later that evening and this black muck started coming up from the drain taking a shower. They sent up maintenance to look, guy took basically a shop vac to the drain and I watched what I could only imagine to be other guests fun days and nights come up from the drain. We left the property that night and went to the Luxor for the rest of the weekend. Never have been back.

    In 1998, my first visit to Vegas, I stayed at the Excalibur. Two things ruined my trip to Vegas, this hotel and my friend I went with. Both were a drag. The food wasn't good the room wasn't clean and we made no arraignments for any entertainment. I intend to visit Vegas soon but it will be by myself and I will have an itinerary.

The older hotels have larger rooms, so that’s a nicer bonus. I always travel with my own bath products, so no issues for me. My only issue was I arrived so late that all the foods places were closed. I ate at America.

      exactly. Another youtuber stayed at excalibur opening day from the pandemic and he had to switch rooms. room was filthy dead roaches in the window. Like What were you guys doing all that time. Then you see the casino and machines and stuff arent blocked off separated. A lot of the casinos I saw. All they did was take the middle chair away at a couple. flamingo bunch people were all close together from june on. I have stayed at excalibur numerous times from 2001 to 2014 and never had a bad room. But since that all I see is bad reviews bad pictures bad videos and lots or rooms with roaches and I will never return there they have a real problem it seems.

What they called a handicap accessible room was basically identical to what you had with a plastic chair that could be put in the shower. My hubby was unable to take a shower the entire time we were there as it was not in any way wheelchair accessible. and 2. Anywhere outside our room was FREEZING cold.

    I stayed at the Excalibur three nights back in 1993. It was a newer hotel which opened in 1990. I enjoyed my stay.
    Glad to see after all these years it still isn’t a bad place to stay. But now there are so many other choices.

    Fair review. So many reviewers are go/no go with everything. You leave some room for the budget traveler. For me, looking at this room for sub-100 vs other options at 160+ I might choose to save some $$.

    I want to review the reviewer... relax it's a good review. I first binged yellow productions... I like him. He specializes in travel tips, hotel values, and cheap eats. He is good at what he does for sure, and a very smart guy. But he does not drink nor gamble... and that leaves him just a bit short for my needs. I then watched plenty of "Pompsie". He is mostly entertaining. He discovered that since he has 97k subs he can negotiate comped rooms and basically make every review a vacation for himself and his GF and family. He is AWLAYS going to get a pristine room with a view, and other goodies. So his takes on the rooms is worthless for us. But his production value is high and he is entertaining. I still learn many things from his wandering about and discovering entertainment. Then I came to Ruby... IMO the best LV reviewer. You work the system to show how we can save money, but you do not take comps based on your YT channel (smart). Your eats and drinks reviews are the BEST. Production value is high and very entertaining... and you guys are having fun and it shows. Keep up the great work!

    I stayed at the Excalibur 20 years ago & it wasn't that great then. Looks like they haven't upgraded anything since I stayed there. Too bad since there was a several month closure during the pandemic; would have been a good time for upgrades, repainting & all carpets shampooed.

My parents myself and my wife and kids and a bunch of us (friends), stayed there for their wedding. We had an unbelievably great time. Everything was so new there. From what I understand, they've taken out a lot of the old things that were there. It's a shame to see things go down hill.
