And I just looked at the price for the time frame I already have booked, and it's up to $61 per night. Looks like it fluctuates quite a bit, so definitely continue checking.
Correct always keep checking they change all the time -as I posted in another thread

Specifically what I am paying per night - strictly website -
Tues 20th Wed 21st Thur 22th comped
Fri 23th $91 Sat 24th $91
Sun 25th Mon 26th comped
Tue 27th $63 Wed 28th $63 THUR 29th $63
with sales tax it came to a TOTAL FOR 10 NIGHTS OF $422
I am booking as a Diamond status member but ONLY because of my Comenity Bank(which is part of Bread Financial) VISA usage and Founders Club benefit. My table action is trivial so my Tier score is actually below 15,000. I will say that you can truly crank up your rewards points very easily by getting the Credit Card and at roughly a 100 to 1 ratio reduce the cost you end up paying for the room also. The best advice to anyone is to BOOK EARLY reservations are NOT hard to change and costs you literally nothing ($15 one time fee if you book thru the Hotel no fee for online). In years past I would continue to check rates and if they went down was ALWAYS given the lowest rate I found by calling the Casino direct. If you are patient with the staff on the phone they really try and be as helpful as possible. I have no issues spending thousands on entry fees but see no reason to waste hundreds on a room and incidentals.
Hope this level of details helps get everyone a better deal or at least they can understand better what is impacting the pricing people discuss.
*****FOLLOW UP ON RATE CHANGE OBTAINED**********
Just as a semi public service announcement - by just checking the normal reservations quotes on Caesars Website the above billing has been LOWERED after a phone call to all in total of $373 ($329 room +44 taxes ) I was also able to book an additional 10 nights from July 3rd -13th for $150 TOTAL both reservations are at the Horseshoe( Bally's) always pays to keep checking for the best deals possible.
