Default Re: The \"$20 trick\" - trip report requests, does it work?

I checked in very late once, got the VIP room. I always thought she did it because she thought I was cute.

When I lived in Vegas, my wife's parents visited a lot. They would stay at a different hotel each time. My father-in-law would ALWAYS tip the front desk girl $20, and ask for a nice room.

He never got a suite or anything, but he always had a nice view.

EDIT: I should note that he was usually staying 5-7 days, and wasn't tipping 5-7 Andrew Jacksons.
