Our stay at Crown Towers started off well, but that quickly changed when we checked into our room. As soon as we entered the bathroom, we were greeted by a large ball of hair in the shower—an unexpected sight for a supposedly 5-star hotel. It was clear that housekeeping had rushed through the job, doing little more than making the beds and restocking essentials without proper cleaning. When we raised the issue, we were offered a room change or a housekeeping visit. We chose the latter, but after 30 minutes of waiting, no one showed up, and we had to leave. It felt like these oversights were just “business as usual.” Fortunately, the bathroom was cleaned by the time we returned. The service issues didn’t stop there. Our luggage, which we had dropped off at the bell desk six hours earlier, was still not in our room upon arrival as promised. While not a big deal, it added to the growing impression that guest experience was not a priority. The room’s tablet system also had errors—our welcome message was addressed to a different guest, and some service options, including spa bookings, resulted in error messages. Despite the hotel’s great location, good amenities, and comfortable rooms, the attention to detail and service quality fell far short of expectations. I’ve had cleaner rooms and better hospitality at 3-star hotels. Crown Towers may look the part of a luxury hotel, but the experience left much to be desired.
