Deluxe family suites start from $450. May I know for how many people you would need the suite?
We are four. Two adults and two kids.
Great. It would be $500 for the best suite.

Front desk, Hotel La Belle. How may help you?
Yes, I called you an hour earlier. I'm Windy Dakota.
Yes, Miss Dakota. Would you like to book a room now?
Yes. But what are my payment options?
We accept all types of credit cards. There is also a special rebate of 5% on American Express cards.
That's fine, but the problem is I don't have a card! I only have a Visa checking account.
Okay...No problem.
Can I use my checking account?
Yes, certainly. You can use the debit card connected to your checking account.
Thank you!
