Hotel check in age question? -

My best friend and I are planning a college road trip in Georgia during Spring Break. She s seventeen and I m sixteen. The problem is where we ll stay. My dad can use his traveling points to get us free hotel rooms, but will a hotel let us check in? Do you have to be eighteen to check in to a hotel or can you be seventeen? Wil she be able to anyway since her last name is different than his? Or can my dad do it over the phone or something since he s using reward points? If it depends on the hotel, can you give me a list of hotels that will allow us to check in? Thanks!

sorry, but you GIRLS are going to be stuck like chuck. Most decent hotels/motels have a minimum check in age of 21 to stay there. Some of the lower class places, it might be 18, so, good luck with that.
