The date on this reservation was incorrect. Been trying to correct the problem for a week. Choice Hotels and Expedia just point fingers at each other. Beware!! They are intent on charging me for a room that I could never use.

No elevators! Make sure you read EVERYTHING about the details. I have painful, arthritic knees, primarily with stairs. When I inquired about even a lesser room on the ground level, I was informed I could not because I booked thru a 3rd party. Traveling for business, most expensive night stay of the trip. Even the ice machine is first level.
