poor communicationawful beds

the front desk caused me some real grief upon check-in. i got there way before the official time. they stored my luggage, put my info into the system, said they would call if something opened up early. never got a call and when i came back, they acted like i was speaking a different language. then, they made a big deal about the room i booked with my kid. the beds were awful. the mattress was like it was trying to swallow me whole.
