Wait, there's not a resort fee at Rincon, is there?

Or are you saying that your daughter earns 10x RCs and then uses it to pay the resort fees in Vegas?

I always felt mandatory resort fees should be illegal. They exist in order to trick the consumer into believing he's getting a lower price than he really is, especially when using tools like Kayak or Orbitz to list hotels by price.

CET hotels charged no resort fees for awhile (and promoted this heavily), but then abruptly reversed course when they realized they were showing up below comparable properties in Vegas with resort fees, simply because they rolled the resort fees into their basic price. So they started charging resort fees, too.

The whole thing is a bunch of crap.

Resort fees also screw travel agents out of commission.

There needs to be a law that the posted hotel rate is the only mandatory price to stay at the hotel, aside from government taxes.
