Many hotels have cut cleaning staff and don't have housekeeping after 1 or 2 pm. That may have been the issue here.

Still, they need to find a way to honor the late checkout.

Could have been sold out, or just no one to clean the room. Staff tend to use "sold out" as an excuse for a variety of issues.
