I got a in mail promotion for the rio hotel and Cesar's group for a two night stay for free. I booked to the rio hotel since it was the nicest out of the group. I called reservations and they booked me for a normal room, no upgrade for my stay. \n\nI was wanting a strip view room. If it was available i could pay a upgrade charge for 40 dollars a night. I was in luck, she said there was a samba suite with a strip view room. I decided to upgrade. I go to my room and it was not a strip view room, it was a view of the mountains and freeway. I saw the corner of the strip. Trump to be exact. I was extremely disappointed. I called the front desk and asked to be downgraded. I was on hold for 7 minutes until i got in hold with hotel operations. He said he would lower it to 20 a night.  \n\nEven though i couldn't get the full strip view, i cant beat 40 dollars for two nights. It was before a huge concert and regular rooms were topping 150 a night.
