The people before us had a huge mix up with their rooms. Only one person working the front desk. Had to wait at least a half an hour for them to straighten it out. The front desk clerk had to keep going back to check with the owner of hotel. Owner never came out to straighten it out. Felt bad for front desk worker. Owner should have been more attentive.
