We never booked the hotel for Jan. 16 - 19 2026. It should have been March 16 - 19 2026. Now they will not refund my money back to my card. for 01/16/2026. I would like someone to check into this matter. I can be contacted at 863 - 216 9461. I see on Resv. it states 01/15 - 16 which is also wrong.Thank you. Florence Ferrell
