Unfortunately, our stay was poor. It started when the suite room we reserved was missing it's furniture - namely the couch shown in the reservation photo. Since we were staying in the room for a week, having no couch was definitely not great. But, not having a working TV for the duration of our stay was crazy.
After the maintenance team came to our room and attempted to get the tv working, they told us to wait about 20 minutes and to let them know if it came back on - it did not. We saw the team in the hallway on our way out and let them know it was still not working. We can only assume that they reported our issue onward, but not one member of the front desk or management staff followed up with us for the duration of our stay. Not one offer to move us to a different room, not an offer to compensate us in some way for our unmet expectations, nothing. I understand it was a busy holiday week and ours were perhaps not the most significant customer service issues the team was facing, however, to not be acknowledged for 5 days in the hospitality industry was mindboggling.
I have been a hotels.com user for a long time, I am a regular traveler and have stayed in a wide variety of places for both business and pleasure. A customer service misstep as blatant as this one was a surprise and a true disappointment. We have family in the Crystal Lake area and will be finding other accommodations for future visits.
