So far , so good. Decided to try the $20 tip, and the woman was very accommodating! She upgraded us from a regular club tower room to a junior suite! We have great views of the strip and overlooking the pool and garden area. All I did was put the $20 between my id and credit card and ask if there are any complimentary room upgrades available. However, watch for hidden fees. Resort fees, room deposits, and temporary holds.

Clerk didn’t want us to use his name, but we got a upgrade on a 3 night stay and had a waiver on the Resort fee for 2 of the 3 nights as we were on our 30th Wedding Anniversary. Time of day we checked in was during the Lunch hour and also got a early check in.

Asked any possible upgrade and can we Waive the resort fee as it’s our 30th anniversary and we are from Canada and have to pay $1.30 Canadian for each US dollar….

Noon, crazy busy, escorted to a clerk, full hotel (rates were high), landed high floor with a view upgrade.
