I have never had such a bad experience while traveling.
I booked a room through Expedia for myself and had my trained and registered service dog with me. This Marriot was, previously, advertised as pet-friendly but in the case of service animals that doesnt matter. These helpful and, often life-saving, animals are allowed anywhere in public including hospitals and restaurants. They undergo more training than many adult humans have had.
Long story short- when I arrived I was informed that they did not let ANY dogs in-service or not- I was told by a rude, young man at the desk. I asked if I could just switch to another Marriott somewhere else. After all Marriott Hotels are known for being universally pet friendly. I found the exception and was not going to make a big deal. The rude adolescent at the desk told me I could not do that.
I am a super easy guy and I didn't want to be "that guy" so I left quietly figuring I would call and between Priceline and Marriot I wouldn't have a problem getting refunded. I even booked my next room through Priceline in a show of good faith. What a waste!!!
The billion dollar Marriott Corporation is unwilling to give me back money on a room that I never spent a single minute in. I will never stay in another Marriott and I will never use Priceline again and I suggest that anyone reading this do the same. By Allowing these huge corporations to bully us, we become complicit in their shady business habits.
