Holiday Inn-San Diego-Question

[Murphey]

We have booked this hotel because of its proximity to the port for a 1 night pre-cruise stay. I understand that it's not that great, and YES, it's expensive. But the question is...I prebooked, a "non-refundable" reservation, but never saw it on my CC bill. I called and they said it could show up "at any time". My point of prereserving AND prepaying this in early summer, what to help with budgeting. Any one have any experience here???????????????? I don't want to check in and be presented with a bill (the reservation is for late October and I reserved in May.

I work in hotels and while it is possible that it could take some time for a cc charge to show up on a statement there should be no reason for it not to be there now...I would do some double checking so you aren't double charged...they may not have charged you but you would certainly want to be aware of that before you get to the hotel thinking you've already paid
