Billing Confusion and Additional Charges

Billing was an absolute mess! Several thousands in hold charges showed pending on our credit card for days against a 3-night stay. Hundreds of dollars billed despite prepaid. $25 Resort Fee with a $25 credit at the Cafe required excessive management of food purchases each day so as to not forfeit the fee. Rate included "free parking" but there was no explanation on how to accomplish resulting in 2 of 3 nights charged for valet parking with zero attempt to resolve the issue from Marriott.
