After checking in we went out and came back to find someone else entering our hotel room. The hotel gave them keys to our room that we were already checked into. Some kind of mix up that should never happen. All of our belongings could have been stolen. Poor people that got into our room were scared and did not have a place to stay for the night even though they had a reservation
