Wow, really sorry to hear about this. I can't believe they wouldn't put in security cameras. Definitely contact a regional or higher up for Holiday Inn. They take complaints very serious and usually give the GM's 72 hours to make things right once they receive the complaint or corporate does it for them.

As for deductibles; 1K is tough. You can ask for split deductible for comp/collision. For example $250 comp and $1000 collision. This usually balances out the cost for the lower comp and the less likely collision at 1K if you budget or keep a credit card available usually is a pretty good way to cover things.

Good luck with all this. It just makes me sick to see.
