"I chose the Excalibur mainly for the location. It is walking distance to T-Mobile Arena and Dolby Live arena. You take the walkway to New York New York, walk thru that casino and both arenas are located right there. Very convenient. It is self checkin at Excalibur. First you go to a kiosk to check in. Then you get a text with a link to go to a second kiosk to get your room number and you actually process your own room key. It was pretty easy. They also have a nice sports bar where you can watch any team so i was also able to watch the Seahawks. There is a tram to Luxor and Mandalay Bay which is also convenient. They do not have USB plugins in the rooms so be sure you bring a power adapter with a regular plugin. There are also no microwaves or mini fridges. They do provide shampoo/conditioner, body wash, body lotion and hand wash. I would stay here again."
