Seeing those cars like that really made my stomach go into knots
From what I hear this is all too common in the Downtown LaCrosse parking ramps; I really wish I would have known about that before picking the hotel.
It also really pisses me off how the hotel reacted when i informed them of the damage done. Not only did the hotel manager immediately become very defensive she also never once said "thats too bad" or "sorry to hear about that", only a "Its not our responsibility, nothing I can do about it" in a VERY nasty tone. Keep in mind I was not asking for the damaged to be paid for, I was asking her to knock the $3 parking fee off of everyone's room charge. I have a call in to the regional manager and if that solves nothing, which i am sure it won't, I encourage everyone to call their credit card company and dispute the $3 charge. $3 isn't much, but its the principle of the matter and how little regard for us and our property the hotel had.
The cop also told me that the city has been trying to get Holiday Inn to split the cost of security cameras for the ramp but the hotel continually refuses even though this is a frequent occurance.
