Was planning to book a stay here with a “save 55%” on 3 nights deal being advertised, but apparently that deal is no longer available, despite the website clearly stating that it is available. I phoned the reservation department to inquire, was told I was speaking with the reservations manager, and that despite the deal still being advertised on their website, it is no longer available, and now they are only offering 25% off, they were working on changing their website, and their terms and conditions state they can change the offer at any time. I realize offers can change, but when something is clearly still being offered on your website, and a customer phones to inquire, one would think that the management would still be willing to offer the deal. Not only was I not offered the deal, I was spoken to by someone incredibly rude, with very poor customer service skills. Will not be staying here now or into the future. Read less
