The price was different than my Expedia reservations. The room I booked was different than the room we were given due to our pet. Although it said pet friendly, the room I booked apparently was not. If I wanted an ocean view my pet fee would be $75 nightly, as opposed to $40 parking lot view. The second night of our stay had a huge price hike compared to the first night. The room served our purpose but I was disappointed by the extra fees and pet fee increase for looking at the ocean. We went for business and it was over $1000 for two nights. The restaurant was closed for renovation. The staff was kind and friendly but I was not happy about the hidden fees. I would definitely call and ask all of those questions if you’re considering a stay. We were also charged to park in front of our room.
