Got the same offer, 5 nights thru Dec 26. Does the Rio even have poker anymore?

no and their old poker room is gone (replaced by slots).

The Rio is undergoing a bunch of renovations on the casino floor area. idk if they are overhauling the rooms as well though.

The info I was sent said they have renovated some rooms, but not yet finished, so they are charging more for the rooms that haven't been worked on yet.

I imagine the comped rooms offered to us low rollers are the older ones.

This seems correct, since I got booked for the Masquerade Room - hoping some variation of the $20 trick can get me into one of the renovated rooms

The Ipanema Tower have recently been renovated, and the rooms look pretty slick from what I have seen on YouTube.

Masquarade Tower still looks like crap apparently, but there are obviously plans to renovate these ones as well.

No, they are the renovated rooms. They did a fairly good job on them. There's a youtube somewhere, might even be on 2p2.

edit: Well, the room I got was renovated anyway. They mention it in the email, so it's not really a mystery if you're being offered a renovated room.

question for anyone who knows downtown - i am going to a festival at downtown LV events center in october. thinking about where to stay, and considering golden nugget for proximity vs. el cortez for price / character. trying to decide if the extra walk back and forth will be a pain. have also read that you sometimes run into delays coming into GN on weekends because they check ID's - that sounds terrible after a long night of jostling concetergoers etc.

Feels like GN is a much better experience and the price difference shouldn't be much.

El Cortez Rooms are nice... they were redone a few years back. my mom loves to stay there when shes in town with her friends and the rooms are good.
