I made this reservation and later needed to arrive 30 minutes before their 4pm check in. I called and they said it was ok to check in between 2 and 4pm with no early fee but if I needed to arrive before 2 there would be a fee. When I arrived at 3:30 they wanted an early check in fee. I related the info from my phone call and the clerk assured me that I would need to pay more. She said "We can't just take your word for it." so I called their phone number and this time they said there would be an early check in fee but agreed to get a manager involved. They went through their call log and saw that I had in fact called in earlier that day and that the reservation clerk made a mistake so they would waive the early fee "this time". It was a totally frustrating experience that could have been avoided. The process took 15-20 minutes and made me late for my appointment. I will find another hotel on my next trip.
