It was my daughters 8th birthday road trip. Thats all she wanted and I heard great things about the Dallas aquarium, so that was our destination. I wanted a place next to the aquarium. Well, I booked the hotel for 2 days and the total cost was supposed to be 340 including the extra for the balcony room. After the purchase I look at the receipt and I was charged 380 and an extra 20 dollars for another person was added for each night. Well, I get there to check in, they are trying to charge me an extra 75 dollars per night, for just in case charges, plus trying to charge me an extra 56 dollars in taxes, which the 56 dollars in taxes were on the original purchase price. After a lot of disbelief and showing the receipt. I ended up paying 384 which was above the special booking price. Ok... well the ice machines on every floor, but floor 11 were broken, nasty, smelly, moldy. Floor 11 apparently was in good condition because thats the floor the boss stays when they come, the room was so cold. The entire bed frame broke when we sat on it. It was 7 degrees in dallas, and the heater never warmed our room up, and it was impossible to even take a shower. They sent maintenance to fix heater twice, then asked to deal with the bed because it would take too long to fix. We were never offered another room, another bed. After paying almost 200 dollars a night, I was very upset and if I had the money, I would have chosen another hotel and not finish our trip there.
