The stay at the hotel was o.k..The only screwup was with Expedia. I had booked for 10/25-27, checking out on the 28th.Got a call from the desk as to my intentions with the room on the evening of the 27th because Expedia had booked me for only two days. Luckily my room was still available so I could book it Will know next time to call and confirm even tho Expedia stated that that was not necessary

What made our stay terrible is my 13 year old got sick and the night guy Dominic talked to him roughly and rude and cursed at my child because the vomitted by the exit door. When I talked to him he was rude to me also and didn’t clean it up for about 2 hours kept yelling I’ll be charged and didn’t want to give my husband a fork
