Very badly flawed
TripAdvisor rating 2.0/5
larryrS9201CA TripAdvisor review
I want to extend my sincerest apologies for the disappointing experiences you encountered during your recent stay with us. It is disheartening to hear that our otherwise well-appointed facilities were marred by service lapses in our dining and housekeeping areas. Regarding your dinner experience, I am truly sorry for the delays and overall poor service you received. This is not reflective of our usual standards, and we had two staff members call in sick for there shift which we were unable to replace on top of a medical emergency in our outside dinning pods we are taking steps to address this with our restaurant team to ensure such incidents are not repeated. Additionally, I apologize for the inconvenience you faced in not being able to book your preferred breakfast times. We appreciate your feedback and will review our reservation procedures to enhance the guest experience in this regard. Regarding the housekeeping issues with your room, I apologize that it was not clear that the water in the bedrooms is complimentary on arrival only and therefore not replenished. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we genuinely appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention. Please know that we are dedicated to addressing these issues promptly to prevent similar occurrences in the future. Kind regards Gavin General Manager
