Internet no longer free at GVR if resort fee waived

In the past, the internet Wi-Fi and/or ethernet connection was free to comped Stations hotel guests, even if the resort fee was waived.

However, much to our surprise, last weekend at Green Valley Ranch, Internet was no longer free. They wanted $14.99 for each day. (We were there in a comped room with the Resort Fee waived.)

We asked about it, and they confirmed it, saying it was a VERY recent policy change.

So if you had free Internet a month ago, you many not have it now.

Anyone else experience this at any of the other Stations? I'm curious about Sunset or Red Rock.

Maybe it is just GVR? (I hope.) Any other policies changed also (free phone calls, use of fitness center, etc.)?

We DID still get our newspaper on the door.

I just got a reply from one of the Stations' managers. It's system wide. All Station hotels now charge for Internet if the resort fee is waived. The fee is $9.99 for most Stations, and more for GVR and Red Rock.

That is B.S.

It seems to follow in line with the rest of their big change.

They tell us we are getting more, but it is certainly worth less!!!!

+1. And in the middle of unveiling a "new and improved" player rewards system. Makes no sense.

It was $9.99 at Sunset on Monday. Said it was something new.

edited to add. It was more at Harrahs Lake Tahoe for a 24 hour period.

Isn't there a Starbucks at every Stations? if not two? is it free there still??

I haven't seen one at Aliante or GVR.
Sunset has a Starbucks.

They (Sunset) asked if you wanted to have internet, otherwise no charge.

There is a Panera in the District where internet is free

Isn't Red Rock a Stations?
They have 2 Starbucks there
by the lobby and the foodcourt
