So are you saying that even though I am still here and haven’t checked out I’m SOL?

No you can still add it in. Just go to the front desk and ask. Any competent agent can add it into the system

That’s what I thought but people in the MGM Gold Waived Resorts Fee thread have said they’ve done it post COVID. So I’m not really sure.

Maybe if you physically check in? Or….thoughts?

I would never actually physically check in. Always check in on the app and mark the "House Keeping Exception"

But you just said you can’t ghost an 8 night stay. That’s exactly what you’re saying you’d do here in this post…

I just stayed at the mirage for 5 nights, and I had the black sign hanged by the door, the sign that decline housekeeping, they really didn't come in and check my room (if they did they would clean and make up my bed right ?)

I had previously stayed 5 nights at Excalibur and Luxor respectively, once I hanged the black sign, I really do not see any evidence they had entered my room.


Why not ? That is a completely false statement. You can certainly add it in anytime before you checked out. I had times forgot to check with front desk to make sure it is in the system or not when I checked in, then I went back to the front desk later to check again, it wasn't so I ask them to put it in, points are posted to Hyatt perfectly fine.

How do you even know your Hyatt number wasn't in the reservation when you checked in ? You didn't link your Hyatt and MGM account ? There is no way to know or see anywhere unless you physically check-in and ask, if so why didn't you add it at the time ?

My understanding is this -

At the 3 or 4 day mark even with the sign they will enter the room and look around, if they see no weapons or dead bodies they will leave without cleaning it per your request via the sign on the door. That is my understanding based on what the front desk and a maid have told me is their policy due to the 2018 shooting at Mandalay Bay.

So you wouldn’t see signs they came in, such as room cleaning as you requested no room cleaning.

ORDnHKG

So with that said, anyone can physically check in, mess up the bed and bathroom, hang the black sign then leave, and mobile check out on the last day, so that they wouldn't suspect any inactivity right ?

I mean I haven't done it myself ghosted for the entire stay, usually I would still stay for 1 or 2 nights then mobile check out

Matt4200

I would assume that’s possible yes. I don’t think the hotels would mind you’re booking their publicly available rate and paying it the same as any other guest.

My account is not tied together as far as I know as this is my first time staying at an MGM property trying to credit to Hyatt points. I went back the next day to ask them and then they said they didn't see it so I added it then.

Just completed a stay at Bellagio, noticed that the resort fee was not automatically credited, any luck emailing accounting at MGM to get this credited?

The number on back of folio does not work!

Did you book directly through Mlife or Bellagio? Only waived if you book direct.

I stayed at Bellagio a few weeks ago. I checked in on the MGM app then went down to the front desk a few hours later to make sure my Hyatt number was attached. The desk agent said that my Hyatt number already was attached to the reservation and there was nothing for her to do. This was probably my third or fourth MGM stay this year, all booked direct via MGM. Everything from the stay posted fine to Hyatt. I probably wouldn't rely on it automatically happening in the future though.

Hah - to me it feels like the mere act of checking on whether your Hyatt number is attached makes it attached. Until then it's in a weird quantum state.

The several times I've had my stays not auto-post -- have been using app for check-in & check-out, picking up keys at the iPad kiosk, and not talking to a front desk agent at any time during my stay. :/
