LIQUIDITY SCORE

Severe Cash Risk

This is arithmetic, not algorithmic astrology. Higher means more money tied up, fewer usable payment options, slower release, or worse evidence.

No approved report includes a measured release time yet. A published estimate is not the same as somebody getting their money back.

PETS & SERVICE ANIMALS

What bringing an animal may cost.

Not published
Service animals are exempt from pet fees and pet deposits.

A hotel’s no-pets rule, pet fee, pet deposit, and ordinary pet restrictions do not apply to a qualifying service animal under the ADA. A hotel may still charge for damage if it normally charges other guests for the same kind of damage.

$100 · card

Guest said the total already included a $100 deposit and the hotel then processed another $100 deposit transaction, for $200 in reported deposit charges; the credit was still not fully visible almost a week later. Confidence: High. Caveats: The manager response acknowledged a $100 refundable deposit. Reported $100/$200 experience conflicts with the master row's $400 amount; review date was not exposed in the indexed page.
