Funny TripAdvisor review responses

Unsatisfied with his experience, Tripadvisor user Shoaib H. took to the review site to list everything that upset them, from a damaged jetty to the lack of an iron and an ironing board in the room. Not a clean hotel, not cheap, drinks not included, they wrote, saying that even water wasnt included in the half-board they paid for and that staff were constantly trying to sell extra experiences.

The general manager of the hotel responded with an admirable calmness and explained that ironing boards are available on request, the water is complimentary, available in the rooms and on the beach, and the jetty was damaged during a recent storm. He finished his response by writing: As per your Tripadvisor profile, I understand that you are not an easy person to please as 10 of the 13 reviews are classified as terrible. However, I am pleased that our banana bread was appreciated and left some positive impact on what seems to be a bad experience at Shanti. Touché.

For Andrew E. and his partner the last leg of a trip to Scotland turned out to be so disastrous he decided to take to Tripadvisor to express his feelings: The bed had a dip in the mattress supported by some wood on the floor, the toilet when flushed made a sound akin to a Spitfire engine starting up and overall it was very cramped. We both looked at each other, made our excuses and left leaving behind the deposit which, on reflection, was a wise move.

In what might be one of the most surprising guest-management exchanges on Tripadvisor, user Gracie L described hers and a friends stay at the Franchise One Hotel as more than disappointing.

In a review titled Looks like a building from Chernobyl on the outside, Tripadvisor user NoneOFYobizness said Clayton Hotel Silver Springs in Ireland looked like it was decorated when a former Hollywood actor was president of the USA. They also complained about a bath that didnt drain and the lack of air conditioning in the room. Their experience didnt get any better come morning: I asked for coffee with my breakfast. I waited. I ate. The same person cleared a table beside me. They served 2 tables opposite me. I finished. I left minus coffee.

Tripadvisor user Guest55334 described this hotel as loud, overpriced and smoky and claimed she and her husband were given the worst room in the hotel. She said it was close to the parking lot and the hotels office, so there was constant noise outside that kept them up all night, and the air conditioning sounded like a little kid banging on a steel kettle.

After a less-than satisfying Easter Sunday dinner, one Tripadvisor user took to the review site to express his disappointment, writing: The beef was good, the lamb was terrible and over cooked and felt like eating a old flip flop, the chicken was not roast and turned out to be pan fried chicken strips that had been overcooked and dry to the point of nearly choking on it absorbing any moisture you had in your mouth.

After a visit to Cafe 52 in Aberdeen, Tripadvisor user injured2015 complained about his colleague being cut by broken glass as well as the restaurants lack of first aid kit essentials, and their failure to offer any form of compensation. We are in the business of training managers and customer service and what we experienced would not have made the grade, he said.

In a response, that was widely circulated in many Scottish newspapers, the owner of Cafe 52 refused to accept that the guests account of the events was true: Your colleagues leg suffered a half-inch scratch from a broken glass that hit the floor. [..] Your colleague was tended to immediately and a drum of antiseptic wipes [contents 200] were put on the table [..], The alleged victim was offered a choice of plasters, however we were out of Does this plaster match my outfit variety, so it was either skin coloured plasters or those bright blue ones. He finished his side of the story by claiming that the reviewer started feeling my back side after having too much wine.

In this one-star Tripadvisor review, user John K. complained about the rude staff at Brunos 7 to 7 American Diner in Edinburgh: We heard yelling from one of the chefs, while on the phone, saying things like; bull**it, fu**, cu*t, etc. The owners need to choose better staff. He also said that the food didnt have any taste and was low quality.

The couple who wrote a review titled FILTHY, DIRTY ROTTEN STINKING HOVEL RUN BY MUPPETS! decided to stay at this hotel because it was advertised to have ample parking space, which apparently wasnt available at the time of their arrival. They said nothing in the room worked, from hot water taps to the kettle, and when hotel staff said it would be taken care of in the morning, it wasnt.

Oliver Beales letter addressed directly to Sir Richard Branson went viral in 2009. After flying from Mumbai to Heathrow in 2008, Beale took to pen and paper to creatively express his disappointment. Ironically, by the end of the flight I would have gladly paid over a thousand rupees for a single biscuit following the culinary journey of hell I was subjected to at the hands of your corporation, he wrote.

Describing his in-flight meal as having "more mustard than any man could consume in a month, and claiming thatthe potato masher was obviously broken and so it was decided the next best thing would be to pass the potatoes through the digestive tract of a bird led to a surprising result. His clever writingis said to have impressed Branson so much that Oliver was offered a job. It has also been suggested by competitorsthat the whole thing was a media stunt. Will we ever know the truth? Probably, not.
