I arrived for a conference at the SD Central Library , upon arrival I had requested 1) I asked to confirm the rate I was quoted on Expedia was $275.00 per night 2) not to be overlooking the pool or by the Ice Machine, I was told that the room rate confirmed and not a pool view because of the pool party and not near the ice machine! All three were off, when I showed upon checkout the rate had doubled and advised that I was not happy but because I had not used Hard Rock directly they weee unable to afford me the rate that I booked and to take it up with Expedia. The front desk staff said that I should have asked to be moved when I found out that me 635 was overlooking the pool and next to the ice machine. Needless to say I will be writing to the GM of Hard Rock and advising all I know that Hard Rock is not a place to stay if you value yourself and sleep.

Our hotel room was OK. The girl in the front was upset because we didn’t upgrade to a balcony room. So she didn’t treat us very well after that. We didn’t get any explanation of the amenities or anything. So for me, this is just a standard hotel
