text: Vegas is a turd, plain and simple, and the Luxor exemplifies all that Vegas has become since its decline from the golden era. So, the Luxor. The building is rundown, and ill-maintained. Rude, rude, rude staff are everywhere. The notion of service in Las Vegas is a thing of the past, and again, this is typified by just how crappy the Luxor is. The room, while tired in appearance, was acceptable, but very mediocre for a strip \"super hotel\". The bartenders at their in-house bars were the rudest asses, and needed to have their noses bloodied for the snide, snobby comments and smarmy, rude, conceited attitudes. No tips for them. Wankers. Just an all-around bad experience. I couldn't wait to leave the Luxor, and the city, too. The novelty of the shape of their building is their only lure. One really can't help but stand on an indoor balcony a few floors up, and admire the engineering. But as for the hospitality...these people have no concept of guest care or hospitality. It'll be too soon, if I never again visit Las Vegas.
