Was At Bill's Gambling Hall and Casino, but there is no choice for that in the drop down. I asked for a strip view room, which would have been a extra $20 a night, then tapped the Andrew Jackson on the counter, and was given a corner room that had the best view of the south strip in the hotel. Great view of the Bellagio fountains, and the Jublie marquee with that great bum staring at me in the window!

Gave $40 with cc and id and asked for a comp upgrade. We were staying for 3 nights. The gentleman apologized for not being able to give us a suite (harrahs has tightened their policies he said) but could give us a deluxe room in the new tower on the floor reserved for diamond level players.

I was a little nervous about this trick that I saw online but figured I would lose $20 just as fast in the slots. We stayed at Planet Hollywood Feb 2008. I asked the girl what my chances were for a free upgrade with my $20 in hand, very obvious. She said that they only had queen deluxe rooms but she might be able to get me in the renovated area. Then she asked for a credit card for incidentals and I handed her the $20 with my card. She seemed a little surprised but then said "wait let me see what else I can do". She then proceeded to show me she was moving me to a suite that was normally $80 a night extra. I told her she was very helpful. The room overlooked the strip and it was the coolest room we ever stayed in with 2 completely separate sinks and a soaking tub. The king size bed and flat screen tv were also wonderful additions, not that we were actually in the room that much it is Vegas after all. Definitely worth the extra $5 a night that it cost.
