That's shocking if so.

We didn't leave a review for an adequate though not exceptional stay awhile back. The owner left a snide remark about us, something about how you can't satisfy people no matter what you do. Our exchanges with him on arrival and departure were very pleasant. We hadn't asked for a thing while there. We had his phone number and my husband called. He didn't answer nor did he return the call, but he took down the remark.

I am inundated for reviews - hotels, cars, restaurants, banks, credit cards, Amazon purchases. Life is too short. I rarely leave a review.
