Worst hotel stay we've had
We stayed here on a husker game day. Tried to check-in around 4 and were told we wouldn't be able to check-in until after the game. To make matters worse we also weren't able to park in the garage and had to park 6 blocks away. So, after the game we had to haul our luggage 6 blocks back to the hotel at 11:00 PM and waited in line for over an hour to get checked in as everyone was checking in at the same time since no one could earlier. When I get the email receipt the next morning I saw we were overcharged by $163. The front desk staff said they weren't able to fix this but told me to email the GM.

I love Graduate hotels and how they commit to a theme. The biggest enjoyment of my stays with Graduate are the decor and themes. Upon checking in, staff were helpful, and the room was clean and amazing. Great location, ease to park (paid parking), and great place to stay.

I will be calling first thing Monday morning. We paid almost $500 dollars for a hotel room to go watch the game. We did NOT get an email that we were not able to check in until AFTER the game. Who would pay that?! I was extremely upset. We checked our bags at 4pm. And then we didn't get checked in until around 11. We were hot and extremely exhausted. When asking the lady at the front desk. She goes " yah some people got the email some didn't but this is how it is every game day". Well when you come from out of town, and that isn't said on the listing when you book the room ..it's a bit upsetting and the customer service was awful. You had a lobby of upset people some of which who had been tailgating and drinking all day. I didn't feel super safe either. Forget the fact that you jacked up the price because it was game day, but you didn't even let us check in. Extremely upsetting and honestly doesn't seem legal. I got a notification that said see you at 4 pm ..got there at 4 only to be told sorry not sorry it's game day
