We knew what we were getting into when we decided to stay here, but it was a holiday weekend and the prices seemed to be much lower at the Luxor than any place else on the strip. We stayed in one of the Tower suites.\n\nThe good:\nThe room was clean, spacious and totally silent. Either we had the quietest neighbors ever or the walls are pretty thick. We literally never heard another human being while we were in the room (although we did hear one or two sirens from the street). The bed and pillows were also pretty comfy, given that it's a low-end hotel.\n\nThe bad:\nEverything is old, outdated and sad-looking. Both TVs in the suite were ancient and very small (maybe 19\"), plus the picture quality was bad (black lines across the screen) and the channels were limited. As a lot of other reviewers mention, finding the correct elevator bank was surprisingly difficult and there were a lot of people trying to talk you into \"great discounts!\" everywhere in the casino. Also, there is a $15/per night resort fee.\n\nThe weird:\nWhen we were coming back to our suite Saturday night (well, technically Sunday morning) security guys were shutting down the elevator bank and told us they had a \"big crime scene\" and we couldn't go up that way. I pointed out that there didn't seem to be any other way to get up to our room and there was no way I was doing 14 flights of stairs in heels, and one of them grudgingly took us up in the elevator himself. No word on what the crime was, but it did not inspire a lot of confidence.
