Was super happy to find a place that allowed me to pay damage deposit in cash as I don't have a credit card. Was also super flexible with extending my stay another night
When we reached to the front office, the lady in the front had attitude and when I asked for a blanket- she was like “why”, unprofessional and need to improve customer service skills for paying customer.
