Preferences on record (aisle seat, king bed, full-size rental car) get scrambled or go undelivered all the time; they are called "preferences," not "requirements" or "promises," for good reasons.

A jerk of a desk clerk is a different story and while I would not walk out over such a thing, I would have a word with the manager, make clear why I'm not bringing future business to the property, and blow up the post-stay corporate survey.
