Area hoteliers are advised to be aware of a construction company operating as Spectrum Interiors and/or Specialty Interiors. Jill Jenkins with Continental Inn warns that they have many immigrants working for them and will ask hotels to put all rooms under the foreman's name. Then when you attempt to direct bill them for rooms and services used they contest the charges and refuse to pay. It is advised that you treat them as either cash only, or use a credit card only if the rooms are booked under the individual who is staying in them's name to help prevent credit card charges from also being contested.
