We had to wait 5-10 minutes for the lady to come back down to the front desk to check in. Then she couldn’t get the cc machine to work so she just checked us in at 9:30 p.m. Then proceeded to call our room at midnight to have us come back down and pay the incidental fee. Didn’t call just once. When we didn’t answer the first time, BECAUSE WERE ASLEEP!, she called back a second time. Then after a terrible night of sleep, I get up to shower and the only options I have for water temperature are ice cold or absolutely scalding hot! Call down tot he front desk and they just say sorry. I just work the front desk. NEVER AGAIN!! And my daughter just transferred to McNeese for college to play volleyball. So we will be here often. We will NEVER stay here again.
