My partner and I arrived at the hotel the evening of November 22nd and checked out the following morning with my partner's dog who is an ESA, as he's disabled and in need of this type of care. After settling in, we decided to do some laundry across the hall but left our dog, his ESA, in the bathroom since we expected it to be a quick ordeal. During that few minutes though, the key entry to our room had stopped working. We got the manager on duty involved and turns out, his master key didn't work either. As he was talking to us, we found out that he had stayed in the room the night before and noticed the entry pad was low in batteries but he didn't replace them or have an order in to do so by the time we arrived. He offered us drinks/snacks, which we didn't accept, and was frantically trying to get this problem addressed. It was well over an hour or so before he was able to get us entry into our room but the door would still be an issue since it was after 1:00 AM by this time. We had mentioned to him that we were supposed to stay overnight the coming Saturday and he assured us it would be fixed at that time. The next morning we woke up and asked for a later checkout so we could finish cleaning up. We piled our towels, sheets and trash nicely so it would be easier for the staff to clean. The Friday after checking out, we received a voicemail stating that our Saturday reservation and any future stays would be canceled and that the explanation was provided in the updated receipt via email. The updated receipt shows a "cleaning fee" of $250. We were extremely caught off guard by this, as we've stayed at that specific hotel countless times before without ever having an issue. The only thing different this round was we had my partner's ESA with us. We were charged $75 for him to stay with us and we were initially told it'd only be $50 for his deposit and stay. My partner called the hotel, to which they informed him the voicemail was correct. He asked for further clarification and the lady on the phone stated it was due to a "smell." Again, we have stayed at this very location previously many times. This specific room is an ADA room and the only thing different for us this round was his dog, who is his ESA. I've sent two different emails to management, as well as called them this week, without any response and am awaiting a call from corporate as well. Unfortunately, we’ve spoken with our attorney regarding discrimination and will be escalating this matter further.
