  I checked in Room 251 at the Delta Marriott Hotel in Racine, WI on 07/27/2022 with my son's. The check-in clerk refused to add my BonVoy number to my stay. Once entering my room, we immediately noticed that the top covers were shredded, and the sheets and curtains had ***** stains on them, which seemed like human soiling. On 07/29/22, I spoke to my assistant and had her to call in about the issues and at 12:47pm, 12:54pm, and 2:15pm she was denied the ability to speak to a supervisor. At 1pm, she reached out to Marriott's *********** at ************** and filed a complaint on my behalf with the following three requests. (1) Clean the room and apply clean bedding (2) Attach my Bonvoy Number to my stay #********* (3) A 3pm Late Check Out because the car service won't arrive until 3:30pm. The representative apologized and stated that he would be requesting some sort of compensation for all of these complications. Complaint Case#********* was filed and sent to the hotel at 1:26pm. We were told to await a response via email. Upon returning back to the hotel on the same evening at about 8:45pm, the room was in absolute shambles, nothing had been cleaned and the trash hadn't even been removed. Both my assistant and I talked to "*********" at the front desk who repeatedly told us both that "She is the person in charge but she is new and there is nothing that she can do". She went on to say that "She reached out to the General Manager" but he is unavailable. This is completely unacceptable for not only a Bonvoy Member but for any child or human to have to endure somewhere where they are paying to stay.

  Mr. *********************** checked in on 7/27 for 3 ngts. He waited for a manager to check him in. He booked rooms through expedia which is a 3rd party and wanted Marriott points. I assisted him,checked him in the room and explained how MB pts. System works and that he will get the credit of his stay but may not get pts.as it is booked through another channel. I also suggested him to use the MB app next time to get points and perks as a member. He also wanted tax exemption on a third party bkg which again was not possible and was explained. He was informed about housekeeping service on request basis only. He was yelling at the female night auditor and wanted her to come and change his sheets at 1am which she refused as she was handling the front desk. She agreed to give him new linens. (Pic attached by guest). There were nonstop demands which we tried to accommodate; He was offered a room change which he refused. Every staff who interacted with him had complaints of being talked rude and yelled at. His sons were professionally asked to change into proper attire instead of swim outfits in order to move in public places and restaurant, which they very loudly made fun of the staff. He is a basic MB member and is entitled for a late check out till 1pm. We are sold out today and cannot offer a late ch.out due to arrivals and we have to clean the rooms. Any such special requests are subject to availability. Post pandemic we as a hotel have our own challenges and as much as we tried ensuring comfort for our guests, we may have fallen short. We can offer a courtesy points deposit of **** pts. This will be done on the next business day.

  I received thus message from them but st ******************************* already has power head kit so what she is talking about is already installed but they told ****** we got to wait on wiring harness and she never mentions it. I message her back and explained this with no response again. But from March till August is ridiculous all the time my batteries are going bad paid $1200 for insurance and no body there seems to care at all. Thank you for any help you can give me. I can get exact dates from ****** if it will help they have seemed to be doing all they can to get me my boat  back.
  Regards,

  Myself and my 3 children stayed at this hotel for 1 night for my cousin's wedding. We checked in, dropped off our bags in the room and quickly took the shuttle to get to the wedding on time. We got back late at night after the wedding and went to sleep. In the morning we had breakfast with extended family in the hotel and checked out. A few days later I noticed a charge on my bank account for the hotel stay $147.12 and another charge for $250. I called this morning and spoke to someone at the front desk. She said she would look into it and call me back. After 5 hours of no call back, I called again. She said that it was for smoking in the room. I explained to her that is impossible because I do not smoke, nor does anyone in my family. She said that the housekeeper could tell someone in the room had been smoking. I explained again that we do not smoke and nobody was smoking in the room. I said that I did notice the room had a smell to it, but did not think much of it. She told me that I should have complained if I thought the room stunk and that they will not be refunding me for smoking in the room. I asked to speak to a manager and she told me the manager is away for the day and the only person I could speak with is her and she is not going to refund me the charge. I explained to her that the charge over drafted my account and she said that is because I was smoking in the room. I have never been treated so disrespectfully. I'm frustrated and don't even know what to do about this. Attached is the receipt for the actual room charge. I do not have a receipt to show the $250 "smoking" charge, but can provide bank statements if necessary.

  [According to the hotel's attachment, they refunded my card. I just talked with my credit union and they advised me that is NOT true. No credit has been to my card, nor has one been attempted. I can provide bank statements if necessary.]

  Hi! Ms. ***************** account details were forwarded to the billing department. Due to security reason, we could not access your full credit card. We should hear back from them soon and update the status of refund. We appreciate your patience.

   

  Thanks
