Dear guest; Thank you for your feedback. You WERE initially directed to a room that housekeeping had not yet cleaned. We apologize for the human error that we made there. In my experience while travelling, when I have been mistakenly directed to the wrong room, I have returned to the front desk and simply been handed the key to another room. I am very surprised to learn that a personal apology from the general manager, him paying for your glasses of wine, and then a free room upgrade to a suite larger than the style you initially booked -- and you were given two upgraded room styles to choose from -- was met with complaint. The room you chose was not older than the room you were first sent to. In fact, it is a little newer and almost identical to the first room you were sent to, just larger. It seems your main complaint is that you felt that the general manager was not personable enough. Strange, as he usually is very friendly and makes great eye contact. Nonetheless, I have asked him to make sure that in future he greets the guests with a large smile and sustained eye contact. So, should you pass our way again, he will be sure to offer you the warmest of handshakes and hold his direct eye contact. I thank you for your feedback and hope that we shall see you again.
