Terrible experience first night

My husband called a day before to request a rollaway bed. They told him its first come fitst serve. He called again the day of when we were at airport before we flew from Chicago to south carolina. Our flight ended up being late we got in around 11pm at night tbe hotel employee said he would have someone bring a rollaway bed there were 2 available. He went down an hour later to check because we were waiting in room. Employee was sitting down and said oh housekeeping went home for the night. And that him or the other employee had dont have keys to the closet to get us one. He also didnt apologize or try to do anything. Nor did he bother to tell us. Very unprofessional and terrible experience. The next day different staff member said we will call around and have one sent. 2 hours goes by nothing 2 more hours nothing. Finally they just switched our room to a double bed. I am requesting first nights charges to be refunded to the card ending in 1514 for this.
