I really hate to give bad reviews. We had booked this 9 days in advance, I provided with hotel with information that we would be traveling with our cat and dog. I booked a king suite for that reason. There was no indication that the hotel was undergoing MAJOR renovations. When we arrived the covered portico was blocked. There was no front desk reception area, only a table with a computer. There were signs that the elevators were not working. When i walked in I was informed that our king suite was not available as they were on the 4th floor. I was offered a queen double. Upon talking with the front desk clerk, he did mention that IF I had called him an hour earlier he did have my king suite but a couple on their honeymoon came in and he gave it to them! How was I supposed to know that I needed to call to ensure my room was not given away?? We had plans to meet friends for dinner. The clerk did offer to call their “sister” hotel the Hampton Inn, to see if they had king suites available. After 30 minutes I was informed they did. However, I was told I would have to call Hotels.com to cancel this reservation and have them transfer it to Hampton Inn. Upon arriving at Hampton Inn, I was not able to reach Hotels.com on the phone-I was disconnected 2 times. I had to pay for my room, was an hour late to my dinner. I still have not been able to contact Hotels.com to recover my money. I’m very disappointed in the way this was handled.
