Like I said that is no excuse for what this guy did. But the fact of the matter is that many hotels will take advantage of us as we try to move to places we feel safe. It gets expensive at an extra $120 per night for a $130 per night hotel. For 3 to 7 nights?[/QUOTE/]

Forward this to Atty General Ashley Moody.She is going after price gougers after the hurricane.
Charging $30 to $75 per pet is common for pet friendly hotels. While it is a hardship for those who are only traveling due to a hurricane, it doesn’t meet the standard for price gouging. The fact is that some pet owners allow their pets to damage hotel rooms.

When we travel north, we take our small dog with us. Not all hotels that accept pets are really pet friendly.

Check out BringFido: Pet Friendly Hotels & Dog Travel Directory to read reviews, see pet charges, and make reservations for your travel.
