I booked a double room specifically on floors 10–25 because I have a fear of heights. However, at check-in, I was assigned a room on the 38th floor. When I politely asked to switch to a lower floor, none were available. I then requested a refund since the room did not match what I booked, they said it is not possible and that floor preferences are not guaranteed.
This makes no sense—why offer floor selection during booking if it’s not honored? I was even told that if I wanted a lower floor, I would need to change the room type and pay an additional $200, which is completely unreasonable.
The customer service was extremely disappointing. The male staff member cut me off repeatedly while I was speaking, and a female staff member (possibly named Yazmin) was smirking beside manager. Neither of them wore name tags, even the manager which is very unprofessional for a hotel.
Instead of addressing my concerns, they rushed me aside, saying they needed to help the next guest. There was no apology, no courtesy, and no basic respect.
As a paying guest, I have the right to have my requests at least taken seriously. This was, without a doubt, the worst customer service experience I’ve ever had.
