I see many reviews on here from happy travellers (not all though) and good for them - sadly I will now tell you a tale of today's total disaster at Brockport Best Western which after a lifetime of global travel ranks as the worst hotel experience I have ever had the misfortune to endure. We traveled to Brockport today from the UK via Tampa Florida so we were rather tired on arrival at this fairly new Best Western. Sadly, on arrival, the sole member of staff in the building tried to check us in, but despite being able to issue key cards quickly she was not permitted to allow us into our room until she processed our credit card for $50 for 'incidentals', but the computer system crashed and it couldn't be done. In her shoes I would have said, go to your room sir and come back in 30 minutes - I am sure it will all be sorted by then BUT NO!! Instead we had to stand and wait for over 20 minutes waiting for the system that would not work to start working. Despite having paid in advance the major part of $1000 for the booking, the fear that we might abscond having taken a bag of chips from the display gripped the girl which then dictated the next 15 minutes of paralysis. Despite any appeals for logic and reason, all my efforts to move the thing along were met with Lexi (receptionist) insisting that she would lose her job if she let us into the room without the card being processed! SERIOUSLY???? Eventually the manager was contacted (off site) but she refused to speak with me to try to smooth an escalating frustration. Not interested. I have never in a lifetime of travel been so ignored by any manager who's primary job should be to ensure customers have a great experience but clearly Alexandra Agostinelli (for that is her name) didn't get that memo or attend the Customer Service training day. Having got no-where in house I called customer services in national head office to make a formal complaint. I must assume the manager didn't like that because shortly after I was instructed to leave the hotel immediately. They were cancelling my reservation and if I didn't go straight away the Police would be called AND they were still going to charge me for one night too!!! No justification - no explanation. In my view this is theft. They cancelled my reservation - not me. Neither my wife nor I did anything wrong, criminal, crooked or offensive - we simply grew frustrated at being kept waiting almost half an hour in the end so they could take $50 for things I hadn't purchased. Our family owned our own airline in the past and we have always believed that customers matter. The arrogant, off hand way in which this manager and this company treated us by throwing us out at 7.30 in the evening with nowhere to go and still holding on to perhaps $200 for nothing leaves me horrified at this corporate ineptitude and ignorance. Stay there if you must though I really advise you not to.
