Unresolved maintenance issues and poor staff communication regarding room reservation

Business reply on Google

Dear Julian, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We sincerely apologize for the frustration, disappointment, and inconvenience you encountered during your stay. We understand how upsetting it must have been to repeatedly report maintenance concerns, be assured they would be addressed, and then find that the issues remained unresolved. We are especially sorry for the confusion surrounding your reservation extension and the unexpected disruption to your stay. Having concerns with your room, including the odor, restroom issues, and noise from appliances, can significantly impact your comfort, and we regret that your experience did not reflect the level of care and attention our guests should receive. Please know that your feedback regarding communication, responsiveness, and room conditions is taken seriously. We are reviewing these concerns with our team to better understand what happened and identify areas where we can improve. Every guest deserves to feel welcomed, valued, and comfortable, and we apologize that we fell short during your visit. Thank you again for bringing these matters to our attention. We appreciate the opportunity to learn from your feedback a

We did wave the pet fee and I am sorry that we couldn’t accommodate the dog and you better.

We are sorry for the issues you had at the hotel. The pool was off limits due to a child accident that we needed to tend to to make sure it was acceptable to be in. But come back on your next visit to the area and I am sure the pool and spa would be available! Thanks Rachel Marchant
