- Check into the hotel immediately upon arrival. (Since your room probably won't be available until 3 pm, the hotel will provide storage for your luggage.)
- Check in with a major credit card (even if you wish to pay your final bill by check). Note: It is recommended that a debit card not be used for hotel check-in as many hotels block your estimated total bill as a guarantee. Credit card check-in allows you to charge all expenses to your room. If you choose not to use a credit card, you must pay cash in advance, and you may not charge anything to your room.
- Settle your final bill with cash, traveler's checks, major credit card, or check (driver's license and major credit card required). Church checks made out to the hotel for the exact amount will be accepted with credit card back up. No third-party checks are accepted.
- Check with the hotel regarding nonprofit exemption.
- Many hotels now have a surcharge if you check out earlier than scheduled. When you check into your hotel, be sure your checkout date is correct.
A credit card is required to guarantee your hotel reservation. Your credit card will not be charged unless cancellations are made after May 8, 2009. All cancellations made after May 8, 2009 will be charged a $100 event cancellation processing fee. All cancellations within 72 hours prior to the day of arrival will be charged the first night's room & tax by the hotel. Early departures are subject to penalty fees set by the hotel. Changes may be made online, via phone or fax prior to June 10, 2009. Changes may be made with the hotel directly after June 10, 2009.
