Between the time of my booking (several months in advance) and our reservation, this hotel rented out all the suites to the government to house refugees (this part I don’t take issue with, just the customer service). Apparently an email notification was sent out, but because I booked through CF1 (a 3rd party booking system through a military discount plan) our email went to a no reply address that was sent to them by the online booking system. We arrived around 10pm with a very sleepy 4 year old in tow, and were told we were in another hotel 20 minutes away, and instead of a 2-bedroom suite, in a standard room. Because we were sharing a rental car with our in-laws who were staying at a nearby hotel (selected for proximity to ours), that solution didn’t work, plus after booking and paying for a suite, we weren’t happy about a standard room. It was too late to sort it out, so they just put us in the same hotel as the in-laws for the night. It was not very suitable, so the next day we called and asked them to find us something more similar to what we had booked. They said they would try to at least get two adjoining hotel rooms somewhere, since clearly a 4 year old won’t be staying in a completely separate space on his own. Around 2pm or so we got a call from Tanya (a manager or supervisor) saying she had booked us a comparable suite at another hotel. Great! She would text us the details. 8pm rolls around and still no text, but we had the name of the hotel so we planned to just go there when we finished supper. Before we were done eating I got an email from another hotel employee saying she had booked us at a different place entirely! So I call for an explanation. She had no idea Tanya had booked anything and was upset that she had spent so much time looking for something for us. By this point our son is sound asleep in the back of the car, and we have no clue where to go. So I call both of these hotels and NEITHER ONE has a reservation in our names! At this point it’s after 10pm, and we have nowhere to sleep, so while we waited in the car in a Wendy’s Parking lot we are searching for a room on our own thinking we would just have to pay twice and try for a refund later. Finally (after screening my calls) my husband called from his phone and got an answer and they said they were working on something. Around 11pm or so they finally booked us into a suite at an extended stay. Unfortunately, it was a good 20 minutes from our in-laws so every time we went anywhere we had to drive an extra 20 minutes to pick them up and drop them off. The final suite itself was lovely. But the end result was a kid who was asleep in the car, on hotel lobby benches, in our arms, etc and spent hours more in the car during what was supposed to be a fun family vacation than needed. The cancelled reservation without notice was bad enough, but an honest mistake (although there was one email communication with Tanya before arrival, so if they had to have gone digging they cou
