Over charged significantly

I was in town for my daughters College Graduation. I did have my dog with me as he was elderly and not able to board him. The hotel was okay as i have stayed here many times before. But this stay cost me a tremendous amount of unnecessary charges. They kept my credit.card charged. They charged my debit card and i also had to pay cash each night for pet fee & incidentials. A week after my.return the charges from credit and debit cards were dropped, but i still was forced to pay $40 per night - $160 total for the pet fee & incidentals. There was no damage or no calls or anything made, but i never received my $10 per night incidental money back. But, they have travelers with pets bent over because there is only 1 other hotel in area that accepts animals and their rates are significantly higher. At this point i am unable to visit my daughter unless i make arrangements for my pet.

I didn’t like the fact that upon arrival, I was charged 30$ a DAY for my dog. This fee was not disclosed whatsoever when checking out. A very unpleasant and ridiculous hidden fee. Another way to screw the customer and get more money. Although the hotel and the stay was nice, because of this ridiculous pet fee, I will never stay here again.

Okay for one night.

Older motel in fair shape. Beds are worn and a bit lumpy. It is quiet and as clean as possible with carpet. Night clerk was fighting a cold but day clerk and breakfast attendant were cheerful and friendly.
