I’m writing to express my disappointment regarding my recent experience at this hotel.
I arrived at the hotel early around 8:30 AM after a long 4.5-hour flight with my young son. I asked about an early check-in but was told it would require a half-day charge. Since that wasn’t ideal, I decided to wait in the lobby until the usual check-in time around 12–1 PM.
My son was very tired and sleepy, so he lay down briefly on the sofa while we waited. His feet were clean (no shoes or sock). About 30 minutes later, a staff member came over and told us my son should not lie down. I explained the situation, and he said he would try to find a solution but, in the meantime, asked him to sit properly.
My son, despite being tired, followed the instructions and sat up. However, no one followed up with us or offered any assistance after that. We ended up leaving the hotel around 10.30-11.00 AM to wait elsewhere.
I noticed that before the staff member approached us, an older male staff member possibly a manager kept walking by and glaring us giving us unfriendly looks, as if we were doing something wrong. His behavior felt judgmental and made us feel very unwelcome
This is not the level of service I expect from a hotel that claims to be 4 stars. I’ve stayed at many hotels in this category or higher, and most are much more accommodating, especially when guests are traveling with children.
I hope your team reflects on this experience and offers better support and understanding to families in the future. A little empathy would have made a big difference.
