Orleans or Gold Coast Comp Stays?

If you get a two or three night comped stay there do you still pay the resort fee? I was hoping if you had a comped stay the fitness center was inclusive?
I booked (online) two comp nights at the Orleans in July. It said right on my reservation confirmation a $6/night resort fee will be charged. I've read recent posts, however, that state when you book comps online they waive the resort fee at checkout.
I've never paid a Resort Fee when staying on a Comp offer at the Orleans.
I guess the next question is....Did you use the fitness Center? I am wondering if I use it would they charge it. I called but they were not real clear.

From what I could gather, the Gold Coast fitness center is not manned with any staff, so I would guess there is no additional charge. (Now, you do have to swipe your card to get in and perhaps that is how they could regulate that).
WE just got back from Vegas. Our comp stays at Gold Coast, Orleans, Mss, Suncoast and Sam's Town were all without resort fees. We have never paid a resort fee when being comped at a Boyd Hotel.

I've had comped stays at the Orleans and Gold Coast. I did not pay the resort fee and I was able to use the fitness center with no problems.

If the quality of the fitness center is going to be part of your decision making process, the Orleans fitness center is nicer than the Gold Coast center.
