    I boked a bus pick up service for my husband and son. The driver either did not show up or left before they cleared customs (it took 1.5 hours!). They had to get a taxi but where still charged $20 for the ride they did not take with the hotel taxi. The hotel staff claimed we were warned to call them if there were any problems with arrival. That is NOT TRUE. The only notice I got related to CANCELLATION, NOT DELAY IN CUSTOMS. I understand the driver not wanting to stick around for 90 minutes, but the hotel should not have charged $20. Obviously it's not the amount that's a problem, it's the attitude. We will not stay in this hotel again.

    Staff was rude at check in. I showed up at 3 pm after an intercontinental flight and they told me my room would not be ready for an hour, despite the fact the the hotel was clearly not at full capacity, and they were not in any mood to hear my questions about what to do in the meantime. They also charged me for minibar purchases which were not consumed...
