Entrance amounts to a futuristic welcome mat Vegas-style!
There was a lot of fanfare on the street in front of Bally's Hotel bright-and-early this morning as a posse of smartly-dressed "suits" (top management brass) and staff gathered excitedly to tout their latest promotion.
No resort fees!
That's sure worth cheering about.
In recent months, a scandal has been brewing over resort fees, and the failure of Hotels such as - Hooters, the Artisan, and Terribles Casino - to disclose the surcharges up front on booking sites such as Orbitz, Expedia, and Hot Wire (to name a few).
I reported on the issue a few weeks ago.

Now that Bally's has taken a bold step forward - and has ended the scurrilous practice of charging tourists "resort fees" - maybe other Hoteliers will follow suit.
By the way, Management is also providing $20 free slot play for tourists and locals alike once they've join the Total Awards Club.
A ticket to a show or a $20 dinner credit are offered up as an alternative for individuals who do not gamble.
Looks like Bally's is back in the game on the strip, eh?
Now, if only those room rates would drop a tad, and come with plush bathrobes!
News at 11!
