Dear team, I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding the poor internet connectivity during my stay and the lack of cooperation from the establishment's management in addressing this issue, (Home Out Guest) I contacted the responsible party several times, and their response was that the problem was likely related to my computer rather than the internet connection itself. I had reserved a six-day stay at your establishment, but due to the ongoing internet issue, I had to move to another location. I requested a refund for the days I was unable to stay at your establishment, but the owner firmly refused my request. The connectivity problem persisted for two nights, during which I even sent screenshots showing speed tests to demonstrate the issue. I asked for a refund for the nights I did not stay at your hotel, but I did not request compensation for the workday I lost due to the poor internet connection. Unfortunately, the responsible party has been very uncooperative despite the clear circumstances. I find it disappointing that there was no understanding of the situation or acknowledgment that I lost a workday and the corresponding salary due to an issue with the internet service provided by your establishment. I am officially lodging this complaint due to the lack of cooperation, the poor quality of the internet service, and the failure to understand the financial impact this had on me. I trust this matter will be addressed appropriately, and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, Suhayla

@@REF_ID@f212516d48876a97b9@REF_ID@@ We would like to clarify the following points: 1.⁠ ⁠At no point during her stay did the guest contact us in advance to request or inquire about specific internet speed requirements. 2.⁠ ⁠Multiple speed tests were conducted, both by us and by the guest, confirming a s connection speed of *54 Mbps*, which is sui for regular remote work. 3.⁠ ⁠We contacted other guests who were using the same wifi, and all confirmed that the internet connection was reliable and satisfactory. 4.⁠ ⁠The property is spacious, and we provide a large living room with a dedicated , which is conducive to remote work. Despite suggesting this as an alternative workspace, the guest did not respond to our proposal. We would also like to emphasize that while we ensure the internet connection is reliable for general use, we cannot be held responsible for any network outages, technical difficulties, or the suitability of the connection for specific individual needs. Factors affecting internet performance can sometimes be beyond our control, but real 54 Mbps is generally sufficient for working on a computer, depending on the type of tasks you perform. It’s not the first time that we refund our guests for any trouble, but in this situation the guest didn’t try to make an agreement. We were informed that the guest left, despite the internet was working. Our understanding was that we couldn’t be responsible for any specific task that that guest needed to perform, as he never reached us before requesting that. We have a strong internet quality and speed (as per that speed test provided but us and also by the guest himself). The guest immediately informed that she would go through Booking.com and also raise an official complaint. We are a family business and we understood that this was a retaliate comment as we didn’t agreed with the guest. Thank you No dia 17/12/2024, às 23:45, escreveu:
