Disappointed!
Motherzeus Q on Sep 09, 2023
Booked in June for a 5 night stay starting Sept 20 directly from hotel. Checked their website on Sept 8 to see if they offered a airport shuttle and happen to catch a very small print “special announcement “ which said the pool would be closed from September 5 to November 15 for renovation! Immediately called the hotel and asked why I wasn’t notified and was told it on there website.. nice try! Asked why I wasn’t told that when I made a reservation and they had no answer. Can’t believe that in mid June they did not know that was happening . If they really didn’t know the they should have contacted anyone with reservations in that time frame. I then asked if we could be compensated in some way was told that we already received a discounted rate and maybe or maybe not when we checked in the concierge could could give an additional price cut! As an IHG member and a Holiday Inn Vacation Club owner I am very disappointed. Whether you pay 200$ or 2000$ a night you should be told of any think that might alter your stay in anyway. I know emergencies can arise but pretty sure a pool renovation isn’t one! Fortunately we were in our cancellation time frame and that’s exactly what we did and able to book another hotel! Could we have done without a pool, sure we could. But after the way they the hotel handled it acting like no big deal and not willing to do anything we figured we rather give our business to someplace else!
Bad attitude from the front desk.

This was our second time staying here. First time, the staff was very friendly and helpful. This time was different. Kendal, working the night shift front desk, was very rude. She was arrogant and didn't want to do her job. I don't stay at hotels where the staff feels emboldended to lecture me and make snide remarks. Will never stay here again.
