Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Upon checking into my room I found that the jacuzzi tub I booked did not work. I only live 2 hours away and the entire reason I booked a hotel at all was to have a relaxing bubble bath after an extremely stressful day. I called the front desk and was told no one could come up to look at the room or troubleshoot the issue. I was told I could downgrade to another room or speak with a manager in the morning. I would not have booked a room at all without a jacuzzi suite so I said I would speak to the supervisor in the morning. I spent 30 minutes searching for a power box and trying to flip every switch in the place. Nothing turned on any of the lamps or the tub. I checked again this morning before leaving the room to ensure I wasn’t crazy. I came down to check out and spoke with the supervisory who was less than friendly when I brought up my concerns. She told me there was nothing she could do until a maintenance man went to confirm I wasn’t lying. I told her I was insulted and regardless, no one came to help troubleshoot and I was unable to do what I came to do. After 10 min the maintenance man returned and told her I was lying and just never turned on the light switch. My jaw was on the floor. I asked her if we could visit the room together and she told me no. She isn’t allowed to leave the front desk. Worst hotel experience I have ever had. Wish I could write more.
