Guest denied check-in due to system error and lack of staff

Business reply on Google

Dear Robert, We're truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you encountered during check-in due to an unforeseen system error linking your name to a blacklisted individual. It's hugely unfortunate that the mix-up left you unable to access your booking, especially as our team could not rectify the issue immediately. The inconvenience and frustration caused, along with the unplanned expense of having to secure alternative accommodation at the DoubleTree hotel, is regrettable. Your comparison with the support system at Airbnb underlines a key aspect we need to improve upon. Prioritizing guest satisfaction through implementing contingency measures and an efficient support system is indeed crucial. Your feedback drives home the need to strike a balance between embracing new technologies and keeping a human touch for instances like yours. This incident is a valuable learning opportunity, and we assure you we'll make every effort to avoid such instances and improve our guest experience. We sincerely apologize again for the unfortunate incident and hope you'll give us another chance to serve you better in the future. Thank you for your feedback.

excessive fees and inflexible check-in and check-out policies

Business reply on Google

Dear George, Thank you for sharing your experience and allowing us to clarify the issues you encountered during your visit to our property. A pre-authorization amount was automatically processed on your account at the time of booking. This is customary for all reservations and is not deducted from your account until your trip has concluded. Unless there are add-on services you wish to purchase for TV entertainment, we do not charge fees for using the TV in our guest rooms. On the subject of customer service, we acknowledge how, based on your experience and interaction with our team, we've had hits and misses. Your comments allowed us to reflect on what we could have done better. George, we offer our sincerest apologies for failing to deliver a memorable experience during your first visit to The Row. You provided valuable points, and we are grateful for your feedback. We hope you can give us another chance to serve you better on your future travels to San Jose.
