Customer ReviewsforEl Palomino Motel

I am not one to write reviews, in this instance I feel something needs to be said. I am baffled as to how this hotel has a 4+ rating.My son (23) who was supposed to stay there August 21st, (he made a booking on-line with his CC in mid July). He was going to stay there because my daughter goes to ************* Universtiy in GJ and he was helping her move into her 1st apartment for the upcoming school year. He went to check in to this hotel and wanted to use his debit card to pay, the owner of the hotel (whom was working the front desk) told him he would not accept a debit card. My son asked if he could give them mine and my husband's credit card # for the booking and he said "no, only the person staying can pay for the room". We spoke our son on the phone (my husband and I were out of town) he told us this and that he was treated badly and now had no place to stay since all the hotels were booked due to all the students moving in that weekend. We called the hotel just ask if we could give him our credit card # for the room and he told us the same thing. He asked what business it was of ours, was extremely rude and impolite. My husband got on the phone with him and asked to speak to a manager and he hung up on my husband. We called right back and no answer (3x) then he finally answered again and when my husband asked again if he could speak to the manager he said he was the owner! He ended up hanging up on my husband again, it was so frustrating. We finally found another hotel 3x the price of this one, but my son and we were treated very well and they did not have a problem with us charging the room on our credit card. We have read some other reviews of this place and here and there you see the comments on how rude this man and his wife who own it are and the weird things they do. Pay attention, read those reviews and take them to heart. Not sure how he got the good reviews, this man is crazy! Avoid at all costs!
