Hotel Check-In

• Check into the hotel immediately upon arrival. (Since your room probably won't be available until 3 pm, the hotel will provide storage for your luggage.)
• Check in with a major credit card (even if you wish to pay your final bill by check).
  Note: It is recommended that a debit card not be used for hotel check-in as many hotels block your estimated total bill as a guarantee. Credit card check-in allows you to charge all expenses to your room. If you choose not to use a credit card, you must pay cash in advance, and you may not charge anything to your room.
• Settle your final bill with cash, traveler's checks, major credit card, or check (driver's license and major credit card required). Church checks made out to the hotel for the exact amount will be accepted with credit card back up. No third-party checks are accepted.
• Many hotels now have a surcharge if you check out earlier than scheduled. When you check into your hotel, be sure your checkout date is correct.

Changes/Cancellation Policy

No charge will be assessed for room cancellations made prior to 48 hours before your scheduled check in date. Cancellations received within 48 hours of arrival forfeit a one night's room charge and tax. Changes may be made online, by e-mail, fax or phone prior to Sept. 18. Changes may be made by with the hotel directly AFTER Sept. 18 as needed prior to arrival.
