So the reason they typically don’t make stay-overs switch rooms is because the housekeeping work for someone mid-stay is a lot less for a checkout. So they don’t want to have a double check out clean for moving someone when they can have a midstay and only one check out.
I think it does stink if they book you into specific rooms and then don’t honor them and don’t give some sort of credit for it. Anymore I haven’t been able to reserve specific rooms though, I can put in a request but it’s not guaranteed.
This is what I was going to say. The hotel had let you reserve 3 specific rooms so they should have told the "stay over" that they would have to change rooms. They didn't because of the extra cleaning of a check out. It was easier on them to move one of your party.
I would write a review- not overly negative, "This is our favorite hotel because of the ..... We were disappointed this trip though that despite confirming our reservation of rooms xxx, the hotel chose to accommodate a stay over and move one of our party."
I depend on reviews so I appreciate those who leave honest ones. I can then evaluate if the negatives are things that would bother me. For instance, the only negatives for our recent Key West rental were about how close it was to a couple of noisy bars. For our group of 6 adults, this was a positive so we went ahead and rented but we had been forewarned of the noise as is anyone looking for a quieter location.
