You don't say what you ended up paying, so I assume it is the $29 rate that I can't tell why you were eligible for in the first place.

You didn't have to take your daughter to a business meeting. You could tell by the manager's tone something was amiss.

I would say $29 for an $89 room isn't bad, cold water and all. I can't figure for the life of me why you presented yourself as a relative of an employee, when that employee no longer worked there. That does sound like fraud, can't you see that?

Did the manager yell at the top of her lungs? If you were at the desk as you say, how could 50-60 people hear?

Free nights? You can't be serious. This entire episode sounds like you wanted something for close to nothing. That's what you got, so just leave it at that.
