New York hotel cancels THIRTY rooms Florida couple booked for wedding guests to make way for migrants
‘It’s upsetting how they’re treating Americans’
A couple’s wedding plans are in chaos after an Upstate New York hotel hosting their guests abruptly cancelled their rooms to make space for a migrant influx.
Gary Moretti, 37, and Deanna Mifsud, 35, slammed The Crossroads Hotel in Newburgh after discovering it had cancelled 30 rooms they had booked just weeks before their nuptials.

‘It was absolutely devastating,’ Moretti told DailyMail.com. ‘It really just hit us hard, despite having contracts and thinking we were locked in – it’s disrespectful.’
Moretti said the move, which comes after the end of Title 42 sparked a rush of migrants across the southern border, could end up costing the couple upwards of $20,000 as they scramble to find new accommodation for their 160 guests.
‘It’s absolutely upsetting how they’re treating American people. How do tax paying people have to deal with this?’ he asked.
