My recent stay at the hotel was deeply disappointing due to a lack of professionalism of the the hotel staffing. I booked through Expedia, specifically seeking a pet-friendly hotel, but there was no mention of needing a vaccination card for my dog. After driving for 7 hours and arriving at 9:30 PM, I was informed by the manager on duty that I could not stay without the vaccination card. I explained that this requirement was not disclosed during the booking process, but the manager was unhelpful, dismissive, and offered no solutions.
When I asked for a refund, I was told it was not possible because the reservation was made through Expedia and that I needed to file a complaint with them. Despite several attempts to resolve the issue, the manager showed no willingness to assist or provide alternatives. Only after I requested to escalate the matter to his supervisor was I finally allowed to write a statement attesting to my dog’s vaccination status—a solution that, as I later learned, was standard policy for such situations.
The next morning, the front desk staff confirmed that a written statement was an acceptable alternative to the vaccination card, which made it clear that the entire ordeal could have been avoided. This experience highlights a clear lack of training and professionalism in handling guest concerns. I hope the hotel takes steps to improve its staff training to prevent similar incidents in the future.
