This hotel, room wise, is basic but what more do you want when you have all the other hotels around to explore, after all you only need the hotel to put your head down, if you get to bed at all.
We have stayed in this hotel now twice, cannot fault anything, all the facilities that you want, they are in the middle of refurbishments at the moment and the new rooms look bright and cheerful, they are also in the middle of doing up the pool area, which is looking good.
We have eaten in the Round Table Resturant which was excellent, the Sherwood Forest Cafe was very good and value for money, the only other places we have eaten in was in the food court, which again was a quick on the go breakfast etc... and again good.
Would consider staying here again, next year hopefully, ideal hotel right at the beginning of the Strip, 3 hotels in, and all within easy reach to other attractions, if you do not fell like walking you can always catch the monorail from the MGM Grand (Opposite Excalibur) right upto the Stratosphere all for $9 per day.
My last word, don't knock it until you have tried it.
