It was all good. I like it there. I extended my stay the day before my supposed to be check out. I called the hotel ahead of time to make sure of availability, gave me an option to book with the front or to book on Expedia. I choose to book through Expedia. And I requested to stay the same room as I had a toddler with me. Was told it was okay and that I can pay in the morning. Next morning I called the front to let them know I’m coming to pay for my room and to make sure they knew I wanted the same room. They said Yes it was okay that I could stay in the same room. Minutes later I got to the front and I was told sorry the room was booked by somebody else. Left me confused cause I always make sure to call ahead. They said Expedia isn’t always accurate with availability even though I called the day before to make sure it was available. I like it there but Expedia and the hotel need better communication.
