Room Selection CET...getting what was told

#1

Sorry for the goof about only having half a message....

And, long time no post, but still hoping for help....

Have not been to Vegas in over 2.5 years (had a baby, things change...LOL). However, we have made some day trips to Rincon locally and earned approx 2000 pts on 2 occasions and over 3000 on one. We got DIAD on that 3000 pt trip. (Oh, slot player...yes, yes, I know....)

Anyway, we scheduled a trip for 12/2 at CPLV. Booked online for Palace Tower Deluxe (comped 2 nights). Then some friends decided they wanted to come. We called casino host and asked if we could get a discounted room for friends. They said "well, you are already booked into a 2 bedroom suite. Is that okay?" Um, yeah, that's great (never had a 2 bedroom suite!).

What worries me is that we will show up and they'll say "oops, sorry, only have a twin bed room in the Roman Tower and not sure where your husband or friends will sleep."

I thought they assigned rooms upon arrival based upon pecking order...any experience with this? Should we worry? We love our friends but really would rather have some separation bedroom-wise!

Thanks in advance!

I would always get the name of the host and ask them to send me an e-mail with the details they told me and of course, the confirmation number. I had a 2 bedroom suite in the Roman Tower once (after the rooms were updated) and it was quite nice with multiple bathrooms and multiple jetted tubs, one which was very large and deep. Before the Augustus and Octavian Towers were built, I stayed in the Palace Tower, sometimes with a Junior Suite (2 bathrooms but one bedroom), almost exclusively and I prefer the jetted tubs there over the Augustus Tower ones.
Call back and speak with the same host to verify that's it's imperative that your friends will be accomodated, too, one way or another.

Thanks for you reply...we did get a name, but didn't think about the email. Will call back for that.

Seemed weird to me at all that they were willing to give us a 2 bedroom suite when there were only 2 of us showing...maybe they figure husbands and wives fight a lot in Vegas and need to sleep separately...LOL

I wasn't aware that the Roman Tower had suites...I think that tower is more centrally located (closer to casino) which is nice for me.

I'm really hoping we won't have issues...our confirmation still shows that room I self booked for us (Palace Tower Premium).

Who knows how they do it. A year or so back, when we checked in at RIO, they gave us a C end suite. I was Diamond, but never ever talked to a host before, then or after.
