BEWARE OF SCAM! I booked a room here for 2 nights through the hotel itself (not a 3rd party site) 9 days before I planned to stay. Since I paid, in full, ahead of time, I got a good rate. Fast forward to the day of the booking, I drive 8 hours from Iowa and arrive at 3 p.m. which is the earliest you can check in. I am told that the hotel cancelled my reservation because they were overbooked. The front desk staff said this often happens with 3rd party sites, but I did NOT book through a 3rd party site even though the desk staff claimed I did. I am dumbfounded at this point because I checked the morning of to make sure the payment went through and the booking was still confirmed. I received no email of a cancelation, nor a refund at the time I tried to check in. I ask why this would happen without an email and what I'm supposed to do. I ask for a print out showing proof that they refunded my stay which is when I saw that the stay was cancelled 30 minutes before I arrived. Yes, THIRTY minutes before I walked in to check into my room, they cancelled it without notifying me. It is over 24 hours later and I still have yet to receive an email or other notice signaling that they cancelled my stay. Now here's the kicker...the desk staff told me that if I made a new booking and came back at 5 p.m., then they would have a room ready for me. I asked how that's possible if she just told me they cancelled my booking 30 minutes before this interaction because they were overbooked. The desk staff said that I need to lose the attitude just because I am utterly stupefied by this interaction at this point. I did not raise my voice, nor use foul language. I simply asked questions to understand the situation because it did not make sense to me. Now, since I just spent all day driving, have a concert to go to in a few hours in Denver, and have a dog with me, I just take what I could get and accepted the offer to rebook with them. The desk staff tells me to do it on my phone, I ask her if she can just do it on her side since I am already here. She tells me that I will get a better rate by booking online and told me to do that. So I go ahead and do so while I am in front of her. While the new rate showed it was 5 dollars cheaper per night than my original booking, when I went through with the order, I noticed it totaled 70 dollars more than the original booking. I bring this up and she said that she can't do anything since I booked originally with a cheap rate for advanced purchase. I said I technically did but now you made me rebook at the time of check in. She says there's nothing she can do and I don't have to stay here if I don't like it. So I ask for her manager's contact info and she gives me a business card, but when I get to my car, I notice the number is just the national extended stay call line amd I have no way to use that to get I touch with the manager. I spent the next 2 hours on the phone trying to lodge a complaint and get a refund for the new booking
