Section 4 — Quick Reference: LLM Decision Rules

Use this table as a fast lookup for any incoming guest message. Find the request type, confirm whether the LLM handles it or escalates, and identify the specific trigger that activates the escalation.

Request / Scenario	LLM Response	Escalation Trigger
Early Check-In	Share $60 + tax fee, explain availability	Guest confirms they want to pay — then escalate
Late Check-Out	Share fee schedule, explain availability option	Guest confirms fee + desired time — then escalate
Connecting Rooms	Explain $20/room/night fee, request names & conf #s	Guest confirms fee + provides all names & conf #s — then escalate
Room Upgrade / Extend Stay (incl. adding a night or a later checkout)	Ask for best contact phone number; do not route to the booking channel	Guest provides phone number — then escalate
Fee / Charge Confirmation (any)	Thank guest, acknowledge the accepted fee; do not apply the charge or guarantee the add-on	Guest accepts/authorizes any fee or surcharge — always escalate (CONFIRM-FEE)
Name Addition / Alt Check-In	Collect name, explain ID/card requirements	Primary name change, billing auth, identity mismatch
Stay Modification / Cancel (shorten, cancel, date shift, room change, primary-name change — not adding nights or an additional guest name)	Explain 3rd-party policy, direct to booking channel	3rd party cannot process; complex booking changes
Invoice / Folio / Receipt (incl. itemized)	Send the self-service folio response (emailed after checkout; check spam; else caesars.com folio-request link)	Billing dispute / correction / refund; business-invoice format; incidentals hold past timeframe
Room Issue / Housekeeping	Apologize, gather details, direct to front desk first	Front desk unresponsive; safety impact; comp requested

General Complaint / Comp	Empathize, document thoroughly	Compensation requested; multiple failures; emotional guest
Post-Stay Review — Negative	Acknowledge publicly with empathy template	Safety, discrimination, viral-risk — escalate within 12h
Post-Stay Review — Positive	Respond with standard thank-you template	No escalation required

RAG Context: Escalation guideline for Paris Las Vegas Resort Casino guest messages where the guest confirms, accepts, authorizes, agrees to, or approves a fee or charge — as opposed to disputing one. Covers acceptance of a quoted surcharge or add-on cost: connecting / adjoining room fees, room upgrades, early check-in or late check-out fees, resort fees, parking, pet fees, rollaway bed or extra-guest charges, extra-night charges, and any "per room / per night" or "extra fee" the guest agrees to pay (e.g. "Yes, we'd like to confirm the adjoining rooms for the extra fee of $20 per room, per night."). The LLM cannot process payments, apply charges, or guarantee paid add-ons or availability, so every confirmation is ALWAYS escalated to a human Concierge to action. Maps to tag CONFIRM-FEE; this is the catch-all backing the Section 1 upsell rules in paris-las-vegas-resort-casino-upsell-escalations.md. Part of the master framework in paris-las-vegas-resort-casino-escalations.md.

Confirmation of a Fee or Charge

Guest asks / says:

• "Yes, we'd like to confirm the adjoining rooms for the extra fee of $20 per room, per night."
• "Yes, please go ahead and add the [resort fee / early check-in / late check-out / upgrade] charge."
• "We accept the $X fee — please confirm."
• "Go ahead and charge me for the [rollaway bed / pet fee / parking / connecting rooms / extra guest]."
• "That's fine, please add it to my bill / room."
• "Confirmed — please proceed with the upgrade at the quoted price."
• "Yes, we agree to the additional cost / surcharge."
• "Please charge my card for the extra night."

Disambiguation: This tag is for a guest accepting / authorizing a new or quoted charge (a forward-looking action a human must execute). A guest disputing, questioning, or asking to remove an existing charge is a billing issue — see Section 2 General Escalation Rules (Billing). Apply both tags when a message does both.

TAG as confirm-fee

Respond with

Thank the guest and acknowledge the specific fee/charge they accepted, then send a holding reply that a team member is arranging it (e.g. "Thank you for confirming! We're arranging this now and will follow up to confirm."). Do not state the charge has been applied or the room / upgrade / add-on is secured, and do not quote, adjust, or negotiate the amount.

Before escalating

This is ALWAYS escalated. Do not apply, process, or confirm the charge, and do not guarantee the booking change. Capture the guest's exact wording — the specific charge accepted, the amount, the unit (per room / per night / one-time), what it is for (connecting / adjoining rooms, upgrade, pet, parking, late check-out, extra guest, rollaway, extra night), and full reservation details — so the Concierge can apply the charge and confirm the arrangement.

Do not claim (unless actually verified and a real escalation has been created and routed)

• That the charge has been applied, processed, or posted to the folio
• That the room, upgrade, connecting rooms, or any paid add-on is secured, guaranteed, or booked
• That payment has been taken or the card has been charged
• That availability has been confirmed

Escalate when:

• Always. Any guest message that accepts, authorizes, agrees to, or confirms a fee, surcharge, add-on, or paid request is an immediate escalation so a human Concierge can apply the charge and confirm the arrangement — regardless of amount, tone, or whether the guest asks for confirmation. The LLM has no authority to process payments, apply charges, or guarantee paid add-ons or availability.
• If the confirmed fee is tied to a booking change controlled by a 3rd-party channel (Expedia, Booking.com), still escalate and capture the booking channel.
• This rule backstops the Section 1 upsell flows (Early Check-In, Late Check-Out, Connecting Rooms, Upgrade) — when a guest confirms any of those fees, escalate here.

J — Noise, Neighbor & Safety Complaints

Trigger Phrases

• "The room next door is too loud / there's a party."
• "I don't feel safe."
• "There's suspicious activity on my floor."
• "I had an accident / there was an incident in my room."

Security Team — available 24/7: Guests with immediate safety concerns should be directed to the Security Team, reachable from the in-room phone (Security or Guest Services button) or by calling the property at (702) 946-7000. The property has EMTs on staff and can contact EMS for transport if needed. All safety, medical, and injury incidents must also be escalated to the hotel team regardless of whether the guest has already contacted Security.

✓ LLM Responds Directly	⚠ Escalate to Human Concierge
Acknowledge the seriousness of the concern immediately. Direct guest to the front desk or Security (via the in-room phone or (702) 946-7000) for immediate help. Express empathy and reassure the guest.	Any safety, medical, or injury incident — always escalate. Noise/security issue where front desk intervention is needed. Front desk or Security unreachable or issue unresolved. Any message mentioning injury, theft, or property damage.

K — Billing Issues & Charge Disputes

Trigger Phrases

• "I was charged incorrectly / I don't recognize this charge."
• "Can you remove this fee?"
• "I want a refund."
• "My deposit hasn't been returned."

Rule — always escalate billing disputes: The LLM does not have authority to adjust charges, issue refunds, or confirm billing corrections. Any billing-related complaint must be escalated to the hotel team.

✓ LLM Responds Directly	⚠ Escalate to Human Concierge
Acknowledge the concern professionally. Gather relevant billing details and document them. Remind the guest that debit holds take several business days to release.	Any billing correction, dispute, or refund — always escalate. Unrecognized charges or request to remove a fee. Incidentals deposit not returned within the expected timeframe.

L — General Complaints & Compensation Requests

Trigger Phrases

• "This stay has been terrible."
• "I'm unhappy with the service."
• "No one is helping me."
• "I want compensation / points / a refund for this experience."

✓ LLM Responds Directly	⚠ Escalate to Human Concierge
Empathize sincerely with the guest's experience. Apologize without assigning fault or making promises. Document the issue thoroughly.	Compensation of any kind is requested. Multiple service failures are described. Guest is emotionally escalating or expressing distress. Guest threatens to leave a public review about the issue.
