On Sept. 7th, I booked at the Floridian hotel for Sept.14-15 through Expedia. I guaranteed the room with my credit card, like I always do. The day of my arrival (Sept. 14th), my flight was delayed, so I called the hotel to inform that I will be arriving late. The person who took the call said he has my reservation, and that he was going to make a note to front desk regarding my late arrival. When I arrived to the hotel a little after midnight, the person in front desk told me that he was sorry, but they are sold out and he cannot give me any room for the night. I told him that I guaranteed the reservation with my credit card, but he said that there is nothing he can do. I tried to book in another hotel, but since it was after midnight, I could not do it with Expedia. I ended up staying up all night, waiting to attend the convention I had the next day. This is the first time I make a reservation and confirm with my credit card, but when I arrive, I don't get the room. I was notified by Expedia that I will get the guarantee back in my credit card because I was never given the room, but I was not a happy camper the next day, with no sleep the night before. Can the hotel overbook the rooms and keep us without a room in spite of the fact that we garenteed the room with our credit card? What compensation can I get for that terrible experience? Thank you.

The first room smelled so bad of cigarette smoke I couldn't believe it. The second room was only tolerable because I was tired. The TV didn't work, but I was tired. The next morning there were what looked like gang members hanging out near my room and others in the lobby and outside the hotel. I will be asking for a refund!!! Absolutely horrible.

**Review:** I recently stayed at the Floridian, and my experience was extremely disappointing. The hotel was shockingly dirty, with visible dirt and grime in common areas. To make matters worse, the facilities that were supposed to be available, like the pool and laundry, were closed without any prior notice. The room itself was unacceptable. I found hair on both the mattress and pillows, which was beyond disgusting. It made me question the cleanliness and hygiene standards of the entire hotel. The final straw was the broken glass door leading to the backyard. It was not only shattered, but it had clearly been tampered with, making the room feel incredibly unsafe. I felt very vulnerable during my stay, and it's inexcusable that such a serious issue wasn't addressed before allowing guests to stay in that room. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. The lack of cleanliness, closed facilities, and serious safety concerns make it a place to avoid at all costs.
