Acceptable Stay with Some Issues
inflexible policy lack appreciation
The service was excellent.
I encountered a problem . The cancellation policy was inflexible when a medical emergency prevented travel. Despite providing a medical report, the hotel still charged me. This felt quite insensitive and showed a lack of appreciation for loyal customers.
