Why are casino rooms cheap?

The idea behind offering ridiculously discounted or free rooms for travelers is that the property will make back the money on the casino floor. Casinos don't really care about the profits from their hotels, and they're really not interested in whether or not you book an expensive room.

Casinos require that you make your bets in chips or with casino credit. You can change your cash into chips at the table, or visit the cashier's cage. Additionally, try to bring a set amount of cash with you as it will help both keep to your budget and to avoid the high rates for cash withdrawals at on-site ATMs.

If you feel you didn't get your money's worth by paying the resort fee, speak up and ask if it can be waived. You might be surprised at how many hotels are willing to waive the fee, especially if you can make a case for why you didn't use the hotel's amenities. Just be polite, and don't be afraid to ask.
