It pays to be kind to the person who checks you in to your hotel, because they decide in which room you will stay. Granted, there are times when availability is low, so the agent has little choice, but depending on when you check in, you may be able to get a room with a view or possibly an upgrade. Sometimes this can be as simple as just asking. Having worked on the Strip, I can tell you that a smile and good attitude can get you far (and sadly with some agents, greasing their palm helps). With the good folks, you do your best at putting them in a decent room... and with the sour apples... well, you try to put them where they belong.

Local Customs: How to Make a Reservation

There are different ways to book your hotel room... you can book directly through hotel reservations (phone or internet), or you can use a third party such as a travel agent or an internet site (ie Hotels.com) Having been behind the front desk, I have seen how different reservations are handled. Of course, you want to comparison shop, but if at all possible, I would book directly through the hotel. If there is a problem with your reservation, it is easier to deal with internal reservations. Plus, these may be upgraded first in cases of room assignments when overbooked. With third party bookings, these are of a lower priority because, honestly, they are usually the cheapest. If there is a problem with your res, then the third party must be contacted to amend the issue. Other problems arise with requests, like "non-smoking room" or "king size bed". THESE ARE ONLY REQUESTS and are not guaranteed. When you make a reservation, you are ONLY booking a room, that's it.
