1. However, when we went back for shuttle to airport we were met by hotel manager who was less than friendly about the shuttle back to airport.

2. Over an hour later, after getting my reservation sorted out with two front desk clerks and a manager who refused to emerge from his cozy office (the desk clerk kept going back to the manager every two minutes because he had no authority), I got into my room.

3. I was so put off by her rudeness that I was about to call a manager over when my traveling companion simply pulled me away and reminded me that the management and front desk really wouldn't care.

6. I nearly forgot, I don't like to complain after the event, so prior to check out I rang to speak to the Duty Manager to let her know what had gone on.

7. Once seeing how bad the room was I did call the Manager who did reduce the rate to my original rate (but frankly, I shouldn't have had to pay for the terrible room without a real bed!) Only good thing I can say is that the shuttle service was timely.

8. The manager told us that they 'randomly' chose which people would be bumped.
