I got to the room and it turned out to be their basic room, not the contemporary upgrade I was expecting. This was good because I was in a hurry to get to the room, change, and make a family function. My trip was split between NYNY and Excalibur, so I was checking in on a busy Friday. I was given a confirmation email in return, though was never charged for the room.
The email came and I accepted the upgrade. They always send emails a few weeks after the booking. I booked a basic room using a myVegas discount, knowing that I’d have an opportunity to upgrade to a contemporary room later on. There are a few positives to be found on the property, but not many. One place I guarantee I will never stay at again is the castle on the South end of the Strip. This may be a product of staying in less than extravagant resorts. I don’t log many hours in the room, so a place to shower and sleep will suffice. Typically, I’m just looking for a place to lay my head for a few hours a night.
I don’t always need a fancy or high-tech room during my Vegas adventures.
