My husband and I stayed here for 1 night due to a work commitment. Upon checking in, we were told our service animal (dog) can’t be on property. After seeing their website said “pet friendly - service animals only”, I called to confirm our dog would be okay if we provided his ID card. I was told that would be no problem - great! We check in and the young man said our dog can’t stay, they brought a manager out who stated the same thing - after asking for the dogs ID card, we were told they needed more proof. I let him know this is all the documentation we brought due to a staff member telling us we’d have no issues. The gentlemen graciously allowed us to check in and enjoy our visit Saturday night! Sunday morning my husband was leaving for his work commitment. The hotel requires you to pay to park in the below ground garage - no biggie, the car was safe. The entrance/exit was so steep we had to put the emergency parking break on to use our key card for entry to the garage. As my husband was leaving, he’s coming out of the garage on the hill and there is a car blocking the exit while parked in a no parking/tow zone. My husband drives a Kia Telluride and it was already a tight fit without another vehicle there. The car blocking the exit was hit by our car, we told hotel staff and informed them that this vehicle was in a no parking zone. After explaining the situation, the young lady at the desk told me they have tried to contact the car owner several times, threatened to tow
