When we checked in I advised that we had free parking and she acknowledged that. We finished check in and went to our room. The next day when we checked out and left the parking garage we had to pay for our parking….we paid as there was no way out if you didn’t and there was a line up behind us. I went back in to the front desk and told them what happened and they told me I should have received a validated parking ticket which I did not. I assumed that I had gotten everything I needed when I checked in. Guest services manager said she would help me and asked for our receipt from the parking garage…guess what? The machine didn’t give us one nor did it give a receipt to the car ahead of us or our friends that paid for parking. They couldn’t refund the money without the parking ticket receipt. So much for being VIP. Our room was clean as was the hotel…having to pay for the parking was our only issue and honestly it’s the hotels responsibility to give us our validated parking ticket especially since I told them we had free parking…not mine to ask for the ticket.

Have stayed a number of times over the last several months. The last few times the lineup for checkin was extremely long and slow. Rooms were not ready when checking in 1hr after the “checkin time”. Hopefully they resolve the checkin issues as hotel is affordable with good parking and an excellent breakfast in the restaurant.
