I
recently
had
an
incredibly
disappointing
experience
during
my
stay
at
Hotel
Gran
Bilbao.
From
the
moment
I
arrived,
it
became
clear
that
the
hotel
fell
far
short
of
my
expectations
in
terms
of
both
comfort
and
customer
service.
First
and
foremost,
the
air
conditioning
in
my
room
was
not
functioning
properly,
and
to
make
matters
worse,
there
was
a
strong
smell
of
smoke
permeating
the
room.
This
was
not
only
unpleasant
but
also
posed
a
health
concern,
as
my
toddler
began
coughing
due
to
the
noxious
odor.
When
I
brought
this
issue
to
the
attention
of
the
receptionist,
Armando,
he
stated
that
there
was
no
maintenance
personnel
on-site
to
address
the
air
conditioning
problem.
Shockingly,
despite
the
discomfort
and
health
issues
caused
by
the
smoke
smell,
Armando
refused
to
accommodate
our
request
to
move
to
another
room,
citing
the
unavailability
of
housekeeping.
In
desperation,
I
had
to
repeatedly
call
Armando
to
emphasize
the
severity
of
the
situation,
particularly
considering
my
asthma
condition.
Eventually,
I
decided
to
go
downstairs
to
speak
with
him
in
person.
Unfortunately,
even
face-to-face,
Armando
remained
uncooperative
and
stubbornly
declined
our
request
to
switch
rooms.
Frustrated
by
the
lack
of
assistance,
I
made
a
point
of
noting
Armando's
name
and
informed
him
that
I
would
be
taking
the
matter
up
with
management.
To
my
surprise,
shortly
after
returning
to
my
room,
Armando
called
to
inform
me
that
we
would
be
moved
to
another
room,
but
we
would
have
to
relocate
once
again
the
following
morning.
Feeling
utterly
disappointed
and
dissatisfied
with
the
overall
experience,
I
informed
Armando
that
I
would
be
canceling
the
remaining
night
of
our
stay.
At
this
point,
he
informed
me
that
cancellation
was
not
possible
due
to
the
hotel's
policy.
Despite
my
insistence
on
discussing
the
matter
with
management,
my
subsequent
conversation
with
Klaulima,
another
staff
member,
yielded
the
same
unhelpful
response.
Desperate
for
a
resolution,
I
spoke
to
Tatiana,
yet
she
echoed
the
same
sentiments,
leaving
me
with
no
other
option
but
to
express
my
extreme
dissatisfaction
and
intention
to
write
to
management
regarding
the
terrible
customer
service
and
unacceptable
conditions
of
the
hotel.
Ironically,
a
few
minutes
after
my
conversation
with
Tatiana,
I
received
a
call
from
the
hotel,
now
stating
that
we
could
indeed
cancel
the
remaining
night
of
our
stay.
By
this
point,
the
damage
had
already
been
done,
and
the
series
of
disappointments
had
left
a
lasting
negative
impression.
Overall,
my
experience
at
Hotel
Gran
Bilbao
was
characterized
by
a
complete
lack
of
customer
service,
with
an
inhospitable
room
that
reeked
of
smoke
and
an
air
conditioning
system
that
failed
to
function.
I
sincerely
hope
that
the
management
takes
my
feedback
seriously
and
addresses
these
issues
to
prevent
other
guests
from
enduring
such
an
unpleasant
stay.
