Worked like a charm! Wonderful Hotel, Great Service. We will be back next year!

Well check in was quick and easy, not to many people. I walked up to the front desk with my girlfriend and I already had my money in place. Greeted by the guy at the front desk i said hello and with a little small talk. I handed him my card and DL with 40 dollars in it and even before i could finish my sentence he had told me that they were booked up and he wasnt able to help me out. It was a very busy weekend though, and I spoke with some guy that checked in on sunday and they upgraded him for free, he said he never offered any money……I guess the best time for upgrades would be during the week or a slow weekend and i will try it again.

We were booked for South Tower, 3 nights with a buy 2, get 3rd night free promo. Checked in early about 11:30 AM. I slipped her the $20 in the license/credit card sandwich and politely asked if any complimentary upgrades were available. We got upgraded to a North Tower with not much of a view but we didn’t care. Nice room, the Nugget rules.

North Tower rooms are closer to the casino than the South Tower rooms. The rooms are bigger and comes with a 42″ Plasma TV and goose down pillows and comforters! Way more than 20 bucks worth, and a Royal Flush on top of that!

Had 2 rooms booked for 3 nights in the South Tower. My wife laid down the sandwich and asked for any upgrades. We got North Tower with no view. I dont care about a view, im not going to vegas to look out a window.

Stayed 3 nights total with 2 rooms connected. Thought it be better to give $40 instead of regular $20 since of 2 rooms. Young lady said they were pretty much booked, but asked if we wait for her to call upstairs. 5-10 mins of wait, but she got us the upgrade!

We thought we’d DOUBLE the trick to 40 to ensure an upgrade! We had at check in three people, and thought we might be able to score a room or suite with just a little more space. No such luck. Trick was presented correctly, but she just said “sorry we’re booked up, and the only other thing we have is luxury suites [or something to that effect] and we don’t comp those.” So we got a standard South Tower room. We retained the 40 bucks, and she seemed pretty unhappy about that, but so it goes.

Clerk said I didn’t have to do that – said the North Tower was booked full – so maybe that is why it didn’t work.

Did the usual routine. Transaction was very discreet with no problems at all.
