The main receptionist at this hotel was extremely rude, unwelcoming and crass. She lied about there not being any rooms available for early check-in (11:30 am) and, despite several very polite requests, made us wait in 95 degree weather (no AC) for hours before allowing us into a room. The room she eventually gave us at 3pm hadn't been cleaned when we opened the door. While she had claimed earlier that the entire hotel was fully booked, she was suddenly able to produce another room key immediately. When I asked the chamber maid cleaning the first room at what time the second room had been cleaned, she told us that it had been clean since 10 am that morning. I understand the need for rules, but there was absolutely no real reason for this woman to not have allowed us to check in a little earlier when we were clearly exhausted travelers who were booked to stay for 3 nights. She was unnecessarily rude and inflexible. All other employees were respectful and kind, especially the evening receptionist named Luca.
