If you are disabled, do not stay at a Choice hotel. If you are looking to book for the advertised price for a room, do not stay at a Choice hotel. If you are hoping to be given the room you paid for, do not stay at a Choice hotel. If your family is in mourning, do not stay at a Choice hotel. If you would like to see just how spectacularly a company can fail to meet reasonably acceptable standards in any area, by all means, stay at a Choice hotel. We were traveling for my mother's funeral. I tried to find the bereavement travel rate online, but couldn’t. I contacted the hotel, but no one knew it. So I emailed reservations. I had to ask three times. Each response was from a different person, and each time, instead of answering my question, they responded as though I had asked something else. I contacted customer service who told me that we had to make the reservation FIRST and we had to do it through the reservations phone number, before they could apply the discount. I did so, and the best price they could offer was about $300 more than the advertised price on the hotel website. This has happened every time I have ever booked at a Choice hotel through the hotel directly or the reservations number, and they’ve never been able to explain why they are unable to match their own prices, just that they can’t.

I didn’t realize until afterwards that I had been given instructions to reserve by a method guaranteed to cost more, in order to be eligible for a discount they had no intention of giving. And this sums up how this company sees your suffering: as an opportunity to fleece you. My spouse and I are both mobility impaired, so we reserved an accessible room with a roll in shower on the ground floor. At arrival, they told us that they didn’t have handicapped rooms on the first floor, only the second. This is the second time I have encountered this bizarre phenomenon at a Choice property, and they won’t tell you till you get there. As you can see from the pic, the roll in shower has a wicked curb to jump. A tub-shaped “border”. Front desk told me my only other option was a non-accessible room. In the second pic, you will notice an unusually vacant area for a hotel room layout. It took me a bit to realize there was no easy chair/reading lamp. Apparently, they assume that the wheelchair bound, after popping wheelies in and out of the shower, and rappelling down the side of burning buildings, don’t need anyplace comfortable to sit and relax. On what we thought was the second to last day of our stay, our key cards stopped working. I went to the front desk and informed them. The woman at t
