Since it sounds like there is a VIP "check-in" lounge that is separate from the Platinum Lounge so she may have been referring to the former, and not the latter. If so, that seems rather deceptive and disappointing. I hope some specific clarification will be forthcoming.
It is deceptive. Hopefully the poster was given wrong info. VIP lounge access is one of the reasons I chose the Tropicanna for next month.

If they aren't going to give us lounge access, they should give us a full buffet to make up for that. Hopefully they will be generous with suite upgrades, that is one thing I hated about the LVH, I really didn't consider the "upgraded rooms" to be an upgrade.
