Will NEVER stay here again !!!

I liked the location of the hotel. The decor was nice & the room was clean. The cleaning staff was also very friendly . However it ENDS there. I called the hotel directly to book our reservations however the reservations were messed up from the very beginning. To make the long story short they gave us 5 different reservations for different dates, it was a mess. I called & it was suppose to be fixed. After arriving at the hotel the employee was closing out his drawer for the night & would not except cash so I gave my credit card to hold room & would pay cash to next employee on shift. This was a BIG mistake. In the end they ended up charging my card for the full time of my stay which should have been 2 nights. Plus they charged almost an extra $100.00. They could not explain the charges and I paid cash for my stay. The staff was rude, inconsiderate & they didn't know what they were doing. If they couldn't make reservations correctly & attempt to fix the problem & be courteous at the same time then they shouldn't be working there. We were given several different stories as to what the charges were for & lied to several different times from different staff members when questioning to speak with the manager. I really wanted to leave the hotel & look for another one but we were with other family members visiting in syracuse to attend the monster jam at the carrier dome. It was an exciting vacation for all of our children & we were trying not to let this hotel issue effect them. But through out our stay all of hotel staff at the front desk were rude, giving dirty looks & disrespectful including the manager himself. The actual hotel its self was nice but it can not make up for their behavior. Above all they did not release our money charged on our card until a week later. After I had contacted my bank, put a watch on my account & spoke with the other manager at the hotel. In my email to her I told her that I have seen people treat dogs better then they treated us & she should be ashamed of her staff. I will NEVER EVER stay at this hotel again. We all felt so uncomfortable there.
Unfortunetly there were other guests having problems as well with the hotel reservations & staff during our visit. It's a shame the staff give this hotel a BAD NAME!
There are plenty of hotels in the syracuse area & I will go to a different hotel if I am ever in the area again. Other hotels couldn't be any worse then the comfort inn carrier circle. I have stayed at many choice hotels over the years for family vacation & business travel & have not had any problems to this extent. I could have over looked the reservation & money issue as being a simple mistake but the way the staff handled the situation, lied, & acted with such disrespect is what made this a TERRIBLE stay. This was by far the WORST hotel stay EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
I would NOT recommend this hotel to anyone.
