We booked a suite in February and when we got there to check in the Hotel said Expedia over booked so they did not have the room we actually paid for. They really did not care and said they only had a double bed or a standard king which one did we want instead. It was my husbands birthday and it was suppose to ne a special weekend and it was disappointing because we got a suite to be able to have friends over and we were not able to celebrate.
