2 'surprises'. 1st was that you HAD to have a 'cash' security deposit. While I did have the cash on me, not everyone would. 2nd, in order to get my 'cash' back, the room was 'checked'. While I understood, we were literally there for 12 hours, only slept there it was basically 3 women (myself and 2 daughters). I'm a Residential/Commercial Property Mgr so I understand the need for security deposits & I MORE than understand what tenants can do to a property so I leave rooms very tidy. I don't leave the place with water everywhere, basically I do NOT leave it a mess and I consider myself a good tipper. I have never, in all of the hotels, motels, inn's, ever had the room have to go back & 'checked' in order to check out.I know the world is changing & I have no problem changing with it, but whomever checks in here specifically, prepare for the requirement that you have to provide a cash security deposit & there is no exception per the signs. Then in order to get it back when you check out, they will check the room first, again, I had no problem with it, as I had nothing to hide & I had no thoughts that I would not get the security deposit back, I just want to make sure people are prepared. I believe people SHOULD take care of other people's property and SHOULD not destroy something that doesn't belong to them so I don't blame the property for this requirement. The room and fixtures etc were beautiful & comfortable.
