This hotel has a systemic problem when it comes to their deposit policy, after we had an unresolved and ongoing dispute, their Concierge Manager Afandi agreed that I put this on Google reviews, probably because he couldn’t resolve this, and here it is:
When we checked into the room, we were charged an unreasonably high amount of deposit for the room, how high? I am Canadian, it is the most expensive in my life, significantly more expensive than NY, LV, anywhere in Canada or Europe, even higher than Japan Korea and Taiwan. Fine, I guess it is just the way they do things, we are going to get it back right? So when we checked out, that’s exactly what I said, you need to tell me right now, and have it in writing that I am going to get my full deposit back. He said, it is going to be fine, you will get it back in a few days…. I asked, how can you assure of that if you haven’t looked into the room yet? This exposed that he was just BSing. I tried to reason with him, he finally agreed to personally go look into the room, he came back, and he said everything is going to be fine and I am going to get my deposit back…. I asked for something in writing or my deposit back right away, still no. There is just no way he can have any assurance that I am going to get my full deposit back given that he has already personally checked the room. For that excessive amount of deposit, he was expecting me to do this based on trust? I don’t think so.
So, this is my story here, the dispute is still ongoing and unresolved, and their Concierge Manager agreed that I post it here, probably because he do not have a solution and he was unable to reason with me.
