The conference rate was $199/night and we were in the Spa Tower, he was upgraded to the LakeFront View room for the conference rate for 5 nights. He says they just offered it to him, but I'm sure he did the $20 trick, or complained his way into a free upgrade because that's just his style. He is a cheap type and doesn't go to Vegas very often so he couldn't have had comps from a players card or anything like that.

So, try the $20 trick. You never know, at the least they'll tell you no. I tried for a free upgrade at MGM with the $20 trick a few years back and was told they didn't have anything available.
