Front desk confusion

Front desk was very unorganized. They seemed to have booked rooms before arrivals. If you came earlier than your room was ready they gave you someone else’s room. They were confused. We even went to our room and they called the room for us to come back down as they gave us a room that was paid for. Then when we went back to lobby they apologized and said they’d just give them another room when they show up.
