Check in where I was charged again even after informing the male person at the desk my reservation is paid in full. He did not take the time to investigate my claim and just stated that the reservation needed to be paid. I thank Hotels for resolving the issue in which they conclude that the male person was rude and did and probably was in training or did know what he was doing. Secondly, no iron in my room and no one follow-up my request for an iron. Thanks to the person that cleans the rooms, he got me an iron.
