I’d like to make it clear that the manager (Emeline) did everything in her power to make up for all the issues I experienced once she was made aware of them. Unfortunately for me, that wasn’t until my last day. This was my first solo trip. The hotel itself is beautiful, and it’s in a great location. It doesn’t have step free access - there is one step up from street level. I waited 10 mins to check in with the host Supriya and eventually found my way to my room (I was not given directions or any information outside of my room number) which turned out to have two single beds instead of the 1 queen bed I booked. When I went back down to politely resolve this, I was met with attitude and told that what I was given was what I booked. After showing proof of my booking, she admitted that I’d been moved because there was some kind of hockey event and they had a last minute group booking that they accommodated instead of me. After some back and forth, Supriya eventually agreed that I could have the cost of my breakfast covered in the morning to compensate for this inconvenience, as they didn’t have any rooms available that night to move me to. The next morning I came down for breakfast as we’d agreed, and after being greeted sat down by another staff member, Supriya decided that this was a good time to publicly humiliate me (breakfast is in a very public dining area and there were a fair amount of people also sat down eating or waiting to order) by telling me that actually, my breakfast wouldn’t be covered because the cost of the room I booked was equal to what I had been given. Please note, I had to walk past the front desk in order to get to the dining area, so she could have relayed this to me privately instead of letting me get sat down. Needless to say I was completely caught off guard by this after a long flight and a restless night of trying to sleep in a single bed for the first time in almost 20 years. I tried to get her to understand my frustration and she just kept saying she could show me screenshots of the cost if I wanted. I asked to speak to the manager repeatedly for the next few days and was told by Supriya that I couldn’t. On the morning of my last day, Supriya must have finally had a day off, because I got a call from Aisha at the front desk who had noticed the room issue on the system. She was so lovely, she apologised and called the manager for me instantly when I mentioned how I had been treated previously. The manager I spoke to (Emeline) is kind, compassionate and a true asset to this hotel. I only wish I could have met and spoken to her earlier in my stay. She apologised profusely and made sure the room issue was corrected as well as covering my dinner that night and giving me a later check out. She even went as far as to give me a ton of recommendations of what to see in the city once she’d understood what my interests were. So honestly my low rating actually has nothing to do with the hotel itself, or 98% of the staff.
