Dishonest Charges, Poor Customer Service
I rarely leave reviews, but my experience at this hotel compels me to warn others. My daughters stayed in room 308. During their stay, they received a letter claiming that a towel and a sheet were “permanently stained” (with makeup and self-tanner). Without any attempt to properly clean the items, and without our consent, the hotel charged my credit card — even after I asked clearly whether we were being charged and was told no. That turned out to be a lie.
When I asked about the policy, the response was simply: “This is hotel policy.”
Let me be clear: I’ve stayed at luxury hotels all over the world. Not once have I ever been charged for stained linens. Most hotels know how to clean these types of items — especially white towels and sheets — using industrial products. The hotel made no effort to do so and jumped straight to charging us.
Even more frustrating: no dark-colored facial towels were provided, which many high-end hotels offer specifically to avoid this type of issue.
I asked — politely and reasonably — that if we were being charged for the linens, we should be given them. After all, if we’re paying for them, they should be ours. That request was ignored.
The hotel’s behavior was dishonest, petty, and deeply disappointing. If you value fairness, integrity, and real hospitality, I strongly suggest staying somewhere else.
