Upon check-in I was told by front desk that my comment request were not conveyed to them by travelocity. We stay ar this hotel all the time. After showing her my confirmation she put the blame on Travelocity, not very good customer service. Finally, she did give us a room we wanted. We should not have to start our vacation this way.
