If you have any changes to your reservations make sure you talk to the supervisor and not just front desk personnel if you call ahead to make changes. Not all employees know the hotel policy so you might not be able to check in when you arrive. It was really inconvenient when I had called ahead to make changes to my reservations to update the check in person and was told there was no issues. I arrived the next day to being told I couldn’t check in because the person I updated for checkin was not on my 3rd party registration and their hotel policy was not to allow it. I told the front desk person that I had already called the day before and was not told this hotel policy. The person asked me who I talked to. I don’t remember who I talked to, I called the hotel directly and talked to who ever was working that day before to answer calls. Then they sent me over to a supervisor who just told me their hotel policy which would not have been a problem is they told me when I had called the day before my check in. It was a big inconvenience that could have not been an issue if I was told the day before. It would be nice if all employees were aware of the hotel policy and not just the supervisor since the supervisor is not answering calls. ##### Dang Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shannon Jul 23, 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our room was comfortable and clean.
