Absolutely Horrible Business!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 7/24/08
I am so upset with the ownership and employment of this Motel. I tried to bring business to this Beachwood Motel by sending their hotel information to my guests in my wedding invitations. Then a week before the event the Minister's wife called to tell me that the gentleman who answers the phone for this motel gave her an attitude and said he wants nothing to do with the wedding and denied them a room. So I called the motel myself to see what exactly is going on. A man answered. I said "Hello. I have a question for you?" He sounded disgusted with me and sounded completely out of it (like intoxicated or drugs.. something wasn't right). So I then said, "sir are you ok?" he replied "Just was talkin to the owner SHE was discussing some issue". "Oh ok, I want to know why you denied one of my guests to my wedding a room?" He said "we're not allowing the weeding party to stay at our hotel, too many people and the wedding and receptions is on the beach and that always seems to cause a problem." so then i mentioned "Only four of my guests have booked a room at your place. the wedding isn't anywhere near your hotel and the reception location is over the bridge off the island. So sir, you need to know the facts before you turn away good paying customers." then he said, "Well its never good to have wedding party stay here cause the always want to room hop and make a mess' "Excuse me??" i said. "My guest are mostly older respectable people, how dare you say that and creat bad business". He said " i don't care we're not accepting any guest from the wedding so you can find some place else!" At that point i asked to speak to the owner and he claimed he was the owner. i said "no your not, you just mentioned you were speaking to the owner before i called and that it was a female, so let me speak to her." He told me it seven o'clock and he needs to go. And just like that he hung up on me! Are you kidding me?? never in my life have I ever dealt with such poor business! I cannot believe a hotel manager, owner or any business man would ever think about speaking to a possible customer that way! I do not recommend this place to anyone at all. What goes around comes around and I am a strong believer in that. I cant imagine this place staying in business much longer.
