The hotel was great- clean, comfy and close to the Ark experience snd 45 mins from The Creation museum. However I will never go through Expedia again. They made adding a day a nightmare and acted like they didn’t understand that we were just trying to extend our stay. They also own hotels.com so I won’t go through them either.
