Property staff is very helpful, room carpet is wet

The carpet was washed around 1 hour before we arrived according to the reception desk and they do their best to offer towers and free snacks as a gesture of goodwill. I acknowledged all their efforts to make guests feel better. However, staying in a room with the smell of wet carpet is not your best travel experience.

Don't Take - Don't Break

The Front Desk check-in clerk stated, We need to hold a $75.00 deposit for anything damaged or stolen." Poor choice of words to use towards a guest. For the record, I could afford anything in that room, and certainly not the type to take shabby accessories.! Seems like management should use this guest experience as a Learning Lesson of What Not To Say when asking for a deposit.
