    Product Issues
    Status:
    Resolved
    The business charged my family and me $250 for smoking damages to the room during our stay at the hotel in the beginning of June. We do not smoke. We did not smoke in the room. The hotel did not notify us of this fee, but instead attempted to charge us after we checked out. We immediately called ******** to inquiry about the charge and subsequently explained that our family does not smoke, that we had a toddler in the room, and that one occupant was pregnant. Despite this, she notified us that her manager refused to refund the charge.Clearly the hotel made an error by attributing damage from a previous occupant of our room to us. As a guest, it is not my responsibility to report the condition of the room to the staff upon my occupancy. The hotel manager must do a better job tracking damages incurred to the room. Instead, she engaged in predatory business practices that exploit tourists- my family and I who otherwise wouldve enjoyed our stay. If I lived in ****************, I would address the issue with the Magistrate at the *****************. As I live out of town, I am limited as to what I can do. Ultimately, I want other people to know the risks of staying with the Islander Inn in **********, **.

    Have been coming to this facility since 2011. Missed 2014,2018 and 2020. Had always ben ********* with all aspects of the hotel. Once we had problems with manager, about 8 years ago.This time booked 2 ocean front rooms, (our preferred rooms year after year). July 24 thru July 27. We could not use either balcony ( reason I book this type of room), they both were flooded, not just wet, with water dripping from the air conditioner units. This place spent thousands in renovations last year, towels and sheets are not white any longer but beige/greysh color , dirty looking and some of them with spots. Bath tub not clean, found long, black hairs in it in one room and another day they didn't clean bath tub on the other room. These problems were reported to the front desk staff and nothing was done about it. Pool regs and signs not respected by some guests and no one at the hotel supervises and make sure regs are respected ie: Not Diving!!!Hotel instead of getting better is getting worse, going down in quality and comfort!

    Islander Inn, Inc. Response

    08/24/2023

    *******************,I would like to apologize about my lack of response to your deep and valid complaints. I have been working vigorously over the last few weeks to begin correcting our errors during your stay. Due to your less than satisfactory visit to The Islander Inn in July 2023, I would like to personally update you to the following advancements:1) We are working on having the concrete on the balconies refinished during the 2023 off season (September 2023 through April ****). This will prevent the water from puddling on the balconies like you had experienced. 2) I had the chemical system replaced within our laundry room with an updated dispenser to correct the off colors of the linens. I will also be purchasing additional linens to replace the linens that could not be revived back to their white color.3) You are the very first guest to lodge a complaint about that specific Front Desk Agent. I have spoken with all of my Front Desk Agents about proper customer service etiquette and mannerisms to provide satisfactory interactions with our guests in the future. I appreciate you bringing this intense situation to my attention. Your concerns have enabled The Islander Inn to learn from our mistakes and to build a better future for all of our guests. I greatly apologize that you had a less than satisfactory visit this time out of your numerous visits. Please allow me to make this up to you by offering a discounted stay in the future to prove our efforts of listening to our valued guests. It would be our privilege to still have you as a continued returning guest.Do not hesitate to let me know if you may have any additional questions or concerns. I greatly appreciate you sharing your experience at The Islander Inn. Thank you, *******************.
