My stay was impacted by a theft incident. Despite clear communication with the housekeeper & placing a "Do Not Disturb" sign on our door, our room was entered, & money was stolen from my purse during our 1st day. Upon return from a quick errand, we were startled to find our room door open & the housekeeper in our room. She said “they told me you requested a blanket. I knocked & you didn’t answer.” At the moment, we thought it was a simple error & she got the rooms confused.
We left our hotel again to exchange funds. As I took out my bills to exchange, I discovered that funds were missing from my bag. This is when we booked a new hotel, & left our current booking at Hotel Dali.
While management addressed the issue & confirmed our account with security footage, their resolution was unprofessional. They held the housekeeper accountable for the theft, requiring her to return the funds from her personal account. This decision seemed like an act of public embarrassment, but the process of retrieving the fundd from the housekeeper's account took an unreasonably long time, & further added to the frustration of the situation.
While I appreciate their efforts, I can’t overlook their resolution process. While the hotel's management addressed the theft & returned my funds, the experience left me with disappointment & frustration, overshadowing the positive aspects of my stay. We completely wasted a day during our trip, & added an extra expense.
