I booked my room through Hotels.com. Paid the total that I was supposed to pay. It was supposed to be fully paid upon arrival. I proceeded to the hotel to check in and I’m informed that there is a mandatory cash deposit required for anybody that’s paid with a card or cash. I travel every day for work and I stay in a different hotel every night of the week. I’ve stayed in hundreds of hotels possibly even thousands and have never been told some monkey crap like this. Come to find out they have people that live in this hotel, and it is known for its riff raff. The girl workin the front desk, who I’ve met through other hotel stays as she works at a couple different hotels, was able to lower my deposit, but she was not able to avoid the deposit all together. Don’t get me wrong if it’s advertised and I know about it then I don’t mind paying it. However, when it’s sprung on me after working a 14 hour day and it’s 11o’clock at night, I have to go to an ATM and get charged fees from my credit card as well as the atm owner to withdraw cash. All so I could give them for a cash deposit for a room that is supposed to be fully paid. One that I get back in 6 hours. All jus a huge inconvenience.They have tried to remodel and update their rooms, but whoever they had doing it did a very very poor job. Shawty tile work, uncomfortable beds, garbage for furniture. I will never stay there again and I will highly recommend anybody. I know not stay there either.
