It seems like a good shot, lots of upgrading available.

lvsigchi Posted July 27, 2011 Author Report Posted July 27, 2011 $20 trick worked - I got upgraded from a standard room to a Spa Villa Suite. I half-way expected them to show up and tell me they gave us the wrong room. Well worth the $20.
AaronJB Posted July 28, 2011 Report Posted July 28, 2011 Glad to hear the $20 trick worked well for you and that you had a nice stay at this property.
Rani Posted July 31, 2011 Report Posted July 31, 2011 Glad to hear the $20 trick worked well for you and that you had a nice stay at this property.What's the $20 trick
Colfax Posted July 31, 2011 Report Posted July 31, 2011 The $20 TrickIt's about offering a tip to the desk clerk to get an upgraded room. Mostly it's a Vegas thing but sometimes works in other cities too.
peakay Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 $20 trick worked - I got upgraded from a standard room to a Spa Villa Suite. I half-way expected them to show up and tell me they gave us the wrong room. Well worth the $20.Congrats - that's a huge upgrade! The standard rooms are pretty crappy and the Spa villas are very nice. I paid about $300 a night for one of those once on my wife's birthday.We have not been going out to La Quinta since Hyatt Grand Champions seems to not be doing Priceline anymore. I would go out in a heartbeat if I thought we could get the spa villa for the PL price. Any tips on the approach there, desk agents, etc.?Thanks.
lvsigchi Posted August 19, 2011 Author Report Posted August 19, 2011 I mentioned we were here for our wedding anniversary and when the front desk clerk asked for my driver
