6. All rooms aren’t created equally
The front desk staff may swear that every king room is the same, but they are deceiving you. Some rooms are truly superior to others, and if you ask nicely (and grease the wheels a little), you might be able to get one of them.
Here’s one of the most common falsehoods told by front desk agents: “All the rooms are practically the same sir,” Bullsh*t! A corner room, a room with a bigger flat screen, a room with… a larger bathroom with two sinks are all common.
Being nice and maybe surreptitiously slipping over a $20 note could earn you one of the better rooms, if not an upgrade.
