| By: mateo it worked! i didn't think it would work. i put the 20 in between my id and my credit card like i had read on this site and handed it to the person checking me in when she asked for it. i asked if there were any complimentary upgrades. i assumed she saw the 20 cuz i gave it to her fanned out w/ my cards. so she said she'd check....and came up with something i could upgrade for "$45/night". feeling defeated i said...no thank you. she then continued checking me in. when she looked down to verify my credit card, she then saw the 20 and looked at me and said...i'll see what i can do. lo and behold, we were updgraded to another suite which was $80/night...total 2 nights....all for 20 bucks. SWEET! | ||||||||||
| By: H & T After scoring a great $139 rate - I decided it wouldn't hurt to try slipping a $20. I went up to the 2nd floor registration because the line was so long. I sandwiched a folded $20 between my DL and CC - and after handing it to the 30yo woman - she asked if I "needed change" - I told her "No, actually, I was hoping for an upgrade - that's for you..." followed by a nice big smile. She typed away and found us a GREAT remodeled suite on the 33rd floor with a amazing view of the strip and pool areas. | ||||||||||
| By: Jerome F Worked like a charm, gave the girl the 20 and she gave me the 2 queens instead of a king (which I wanted) a suite with a strip view, newly renovated, 3 TVS, ridiculous all for $20 plus a 25 dollar match play | ||||||||||
| By: VenetianFan I'm not sure what our room is exactly called, but the descriptions match the Venezia Concierge Bella Suite (but then, we weren't in the Venezia tower but the old Venetian building). The front desk guy (looked like he was around 25-30) put me on the 32nd floor with strip view, and the room was newly remodeled. I don't think I've ever had a room this high before (or used that last bank of elevators to get to my room). Our room had two queen beds, and there were 3 flat-screen tv's in our suite: one 27" in the living room, one 32" for the bedroom, and a tiny 15" (i think) in the bathroom. From my room, we can almost see the top of the Venetian building when looking up sideways (I guess penthouses are all that's left above us?). This was on top of a complimentary 2-night stay...Overall, we were very satisfied with what we got. | ||||||||||
| By: Heidi I was a little nervous to do this as the front desk clerk seemed to be in training and there was a manager by her side. But, what the heck? It's Vegas and its only twenty bucks, right? Slipped the 20 between license and CC and asked the magic question. She looked in the computer for a bit, and then she asked the manager, can I give her this one? He took a peek, and she gave us a newly renovated suite in the 18th floor. Our view was of the pool area, the Mirage and TI. Not sure where we would have been othersise, but we wer satisfied with this room. | ||||||||||
