For whatever reason the heat was outrageous. It was very hot. That is my only complaint with the exception of people hanging out by the curb where my car was parked made me a little nervous

I booked through Expedia and when I went to check in and they checked my ID they told me I couldn’t stay because I’m not 21. Which that’s fine, but then when I asked if they could refund my stay they said no and that I would have to call the manager. So I’m very upset they not only let me book my stay but they also charged me when they told me that I could not stay there
