I did not take a screenshot when reserving since this never happened that they communicate this via FB afterwards. Frankly, we were also in a bad position since bookingi in early May rates were already escalating. There was little hope of finding a hotel to accommodate a family of 4 three weeks ago when they told me. Our room is similar in
size but as the FD stated - this is not a room that has exec Club privileges. So- between that i am a lowly Gold and then getting me I have no access (and their switching rooms for me and not putting exec lounge). We leave Monday so I will ask for the GM then. The weekend staff is not empowered (not that I tried but I can tell by interactions).
This is a different issue. I don't think that you have a significant complaint about issues related to ambience. The product is the breakfast and not really whether the waiters wear white gloves or not.

You would be best to lay out the very specific deficiencies which actually matter. Thus, if breakfast was included in your rate and you were offered breakfast, that is the end of it.
