I am always such a paranoid person.... I just can't help it. I always have my host make reservations in The Vegas... but, I always request an email and a confirmation # which I can verify with the property.

Then, I always call the property directly a day or two after I get the confirmation #; just to confirm the details.

Some properties, such as Rio, let you check online [as long as you have a confirm #] -- I really like that... I wish more properties would allow you to double check your reservations online [similar to the way you can w/ airlines].
