I
booked
the
Titanic
for
a
four-night
stay
over
Valentine’s
Day
with
my
partner.
To
be
plain,
I
won’t
be
staying
again.
We
arrived
at
around
1.45.
We
were
told
that
we
couldn’t
yet
check
in
as
there
was
not
a
double
room
(“with
a
king
size”)
available
for
us.
We
were
told
that
this
was
required
as
we
were
a
couple,
ho
ho
ho.
With
this
in
mind,
we
left
the
bags
and
returned
later
to
check
in.
Person
#2
that
we
encountered
on
reception
was
not
as
helpful
as
the
previous
staff
member.
She
brusquely
checked
us
in
without
providing
any
details
about
breakfast
or
the
spa.
When
we
got
to
the
room,
we
discovered
that
the
room
was
a
twin
room.
Yes,
after
all
that
somewhat
forward
chat
about
needing
to
have
a
double,
we
were
given
a
twin
room.
Confused,
I
rang
reception
and
they
told
me,
without
a
hint
of
apology,
that
this
was
all
they
had
available.
They
could
ask
someone
to
push
the
beds
together
and
if
I
went
to
reception
tomorrow,
we
could
be
moved
to
another
room.
So
I
went
to
reception
the
next
morning
and
was
told
by
Person
#3
to
wait
in
my
room
for
the
next
hour
as
someone
would
contact
me
to
arrange
the
room
swap.
Naturally,
nobody
rang
me
to
arrange
this.
So
I
rang
reception
and
I
was
told
by
Person
#4
that
I
could
leave
my
bags
in
reception
and
someone
would
move
them
into
our
new
double
room.
I
went
downstairs
and
spoke
to
Person
#5
who
was
baffled
when
I
suggested
we
leave
our
bags
to
be
placed
in
a
new
room.
I
explained
again
and
he
verified
that
“your
bags
will
be
in
your
new
room
when
you
return”.
We
went
out
for
the
day
and
returned
to
meet
Person
#6
who
again
was
confused
when
I
asked
if
we
could
have
the
card
for
our
new
room.
I
was
still
listed
in
the
old
room
and
our
bags
were
still
in
reception.
But
she
made
some
enquiries
and
managed
to
find
us
a
double
room
-
one
of
her
colleagues
would
even
bring
our
bags
up
for
us.
Of
course,
if
you’re
becoming
familiar
with
this
narrative,
you’ll
have
already
realised
that
this
room
was
another
twin
room
with
the
beds
pushed
together.
At
this
point,
it
became
clear
that
(whether
through
incompetence
or
bizarre
pettiness)
we
were
never
going
to
be
given
a
double
room
“with
a
king
size
bed”.
I
gave
up.
TL;DR:
too
many
staff
members
+
no
communication
between
them
+
strange
lies
to
cover
up
incompetence
=
poor
service.
I
don’t
want
my
holiday
to
be
taken
up
with
negotiating
over
beds
and
rooms
-
and
I’m
not
sure
anyone
else
does.
