I've stayed at Excalibur quite a few times. If you are going to pay extra to upgrade your room to a contemporary it's great. However, if you are just looking for a basic room (because after all you are just sleeping and showering in it) below basic is what you will get. My bed skirt had  a HUGE stain on it. My mom pointed it out. We even laughed about what kind of activity could possibly cause a stain that huge. And my comforter had a cigarette burn on it. Well not a comforter, but a blanket that would be suited for an animal shelter. Check in is slow, long lines. Rude bell hop that had a major attitude and was short with us. Then he stared at us and wondered why he didn't get a tip. The coupon book is nice, but they have to find a way to get you to patronize their hotel/casino because you won't do it for the rooms. We love the location, the variety of food, the staff. Just beware that if you are looking for bottom of the barrel that is what you will get!!!
