I
made
a
last-minute
booking.
The
hostel
staff
was
friendly
and
very
responsive.
As
the
reception
closes
at
8
pm,
she
told
me
that
I
could
get
the
key
from
a
key
box
when
I
arrive
at
9
pm,
after
prepaying
for
the
stay.
This
worked
very
smoothly.
The
room
was
more
or
less
as
expected
-
not
outstanding
but
I
also
wouldn't
complain.
However,
the
towels
(and
soap)
that
they
were
supposed
to
provide
were
missing.
I
don't
carry
a
towel
when
traveling.
I
immediately
emailed
the
staff
and
started
looking
for
a
towel
in
the
public
areas
in
vain.
The
consequence
was:
I
could
not
take
a
shower
and
was
wiping
my
hands
on
my
t
shirt.
Well,
mistakes
happen.
However,
what
really
disappointed
me:
1.
I
had
to
address
this
issue
up
myself
during
checkout,
even
though
I
emailed
12
hours
earlier
2.
The
staff
said
"sorry"
and
nothing
more.
3.
I
had
to
repeatedly
state
that
I'm
disappointed,
and
that
it
was
a
real
inconvenience
that
there
wasn't
a
towel
provided.
I
found
it
really
disappointing
getting
answers
like:
During
the
current
pandemic,
some
travellers
don't
even
want
a
towel.
I
was
'upgraded'
to
another
room
that
I
did
not
even
ask
for.
4.
I
told
the
staff
that
I'm
disappointed
and
want
to
give
them
a
chance
to
make
up
for
it.
And
that
I
can't
acceptable
being
told
unrelated
arguments.
Finally
she
gave
in
and
told
me
she'd
talk
to
her
manager
a
few
hours
later
to
ask
for
a
refund.
I
asked
her
to
get
back
to
me
by
email,
no
matter
what
is
the
response.
5.
Two
nights
have
passed
since
and
I
haven't
heard
from
them.
I'm
disappointed
by
the
unprofessional
behavior
much
more
than
by
the
fact
that
the
towel
was
missing,
thus
I'm
venting
through
this
review
and
warning
another
travellers.
I
will
be
staying
in
places
where
paying
customers
are
treated
the
way
they
deserve
next
time.
