I booked 4 days to be a the LAX Ramada. Check-in was for 3pm, I arrived early hoping for a early checkin at 1, after confirming my reservation and the availability of the king bed, then I was told it would cost an extra $35. WHY, the room is available. I have stayed at this location several times and never been charged extra, but here on Thanksgiving day 2022, Paola no friendly customer service and no holiday spirit. So I was told by Ramada reservation that early check in fee is optional. I could see if the room wasn't ready and they had to have staff rush to make it presentable but that was not the case here. It's available now. But she said she would check me in at 2:40. What! So I have to wait in my car, in the sun, ice cream melting just because someone doesn't about having a happy customer.
Desired outcome: Just check me in early, it should not have been a big deal
