Caesar's Palace--Classic Room vs. Forum Deluxe Room

I just got a great offer from Caesar's that we are thinking about booking. We have always wanted to stay at Caesar's, but the price has never been right until now. I have a couple of questions about the rooms that I am hoping somebody can help me out with:

(1) Are the Classic Rooms as worn down and basic as they look? I am assuming that our offer will put us in the most basic room, and from the pictures online, the classic rooms look pretty dated.

(2) How easy is it to get upgraded to a Forum Deluxe Room? Those rooms look night and day better than the classic rooms.

Thanks for any input you can provide!

 

Classic Room

Well I have a classic room booked for July 5th thru the 9th, and I am so hoping the $20 sammich gets us something a little nicer.

I'll let you know how that goes. When is your trip?

 

My experience with Caesars is that unless it is an extremely busy time it is often easy to get upgraded to Forum,Palace,or Augustus towers just by asking nicely a $20 tip will all but assure you of an upgraded room if there is rooms available. You are correct that the classic and roman tower rooms tend to be pretty dated then from there you have in order of quality of room but not necessarily quality of location in caesars from worst to best Forum,Palace,Augustus, then Octavius towers.Good luck and have a great time.
