I made a reservation for 2 rooms and requested early check in if possible. I understand if it is not. However we were checked in by 2 different agents and my friend was told her room was vacant and would have priority when cleaned while I would need to wait until 2 pm. My friend headed out but after a rest room visit I spoke up politely that I made the reservation and requested early check in, not her (she doesn t care so much about showering ). We did not need rooms near each other which I said. After I spoke up agent said ok both rooms available at 11:30. I went down to breakfast and when I came up the bellman said he was looking for me as my room was ready. So it worked out but I’d read such good things about the hotel and this left a bad taste in my mouth over their preference for my friend when I booked the hotel for both. Otherwise the stay was great.
