TMCEC will pay for your hotel room, but be prepared to post a deposit or present a credit card upon check-in for incidentals (movies, telephone calls, or room service). You will be responsible for paying any costs incurred for bringing additional family members. Do not contact the hotel directly unless you plan to arrive early or
