Staffing was absolutely horrible. Five minutes after checking in desk person was gone - waited about 10 minutes and never showed back up. Had explained we made two separate consecutive reservations because of weather and wanted to stay in same room and supposedly was taken care of but the next day we were locked out of our room. Called the phone number on door two times and spoke with a reservation agent who stated she would leave a message (apparently it went to the front desk nobody was manning). After approximately 1/2 hour the maintenance man showed up and contacted someone to help us. So after about 45 minutes we finally made it to our room. The next morning I received another charge on my card for the room we’d already paid for. They stated it was because they hadn’t been paid by Hotels.com and when they got paid the charge would disappear. I have used Hotels.com for many years and have never experienced this before. It’s been three days since we’ve checked out and the charge is still pending on my card. We will definitely stay somewhere else next time we visit Salida."
