Place was ok. Registration unpleasant. First thing, the woman informs me, in quasi-accusatory tone, that my MC had refused payment. I asked her to try same card again, and she did then put on an "I told you so" face. My daughter offered that a US card often texts you for confirmation. I checked, and sure enough... My wife then came forward with a card, and the woman said, matter-of-factly, that'll be 500 or so. I raised the issue that Travelocity had confirmed a 150 US, so, even with exchange, we shouldn't come over 350. Then i was lectured that they naturally went by Canadian numbers (which I'd already acknowledged) and that they tagged on a fee just in case.
A pleasant person would have simply stated, "There seems to be a problem with the credit card," and offered solutions. Then, even before my question of extra fees, she should've explained what added up t what. As it was, I was being judged from the start by this smug person who was only too glad to find me wanting.
And, for the record, I actually am Canadian, living in the US these days - though I held back from joining her sour attitude with an equally judgmental retort.
