Bad Breakfast experience: How long to cook a soft boiled egg?

Liked:I was the only person in the restaurant on Monday morning, ordered coffee and eggs+ Coffee arrived OK, 20 minutes later I asked where my breakfast was, and waiter went to kitchen, returned empty handed. Breakfast no where to be seen. I cancelled. VERY POOR MANAGEMENT. People are often in a hurry on a weekday, and breakfast prep should be efficient especially when no competing demands

Average room, terrible customer service and poor event management.

Liked:In short, we stayed three nights, had one business event. The events team and reception are on two different planets, the hotel is average at best and the customer service was reluctant and stingy. First off, there's woeful signage. We were dropped out the front of what looked like a standard pub. Nothing to tell us how to find reception, and we had to just wander around to find it. The staff in the pub didn't help. We had five huge bags with us, no one lifted a finger. When we finally stumbled into reception to an unmanned desk and waited, the manager finally appeared. We were then told he could not find our accommodation reservations, even though he had our event booking. We had to get our laptops out and go through our emails to find 'proof' we'd spoken with the events team to book accommodation. He was so dismissive and rude, he could hardly hold eye contact. He would not apologies or attempt to make us feel better. I was trying to joke around a bit to try and lighten the mood, he wasn't having it. He made a big deal about how he was going to put our accommodation through as no charge, EVEN THOUGH WE HAD PAID up front and had the proof on our laptops. It was rude, unnecessarily so and pointless. We had booked, they had screwed up. We then get no communication about any of this on monday from the events people, clearly the manager on the desk didn't do a thing about anything after we went to our rooms. I had to tell her what had happened. She didn't care much anyway. Then our event was on Tuesday. Everything we'd arranged with them, the food, the lunches, none of it happened. Yes, we had one staff member doing coffees who was terrific, but that was it. We had to try and just manage with nothing for our clients and we ordered lunch because the staff knew nothing of it. At the end of the day I wanted a drink for my exhausted husband and they wouldn't even allow that because it was 'tea and coffee only', even after they didn't deliver on any of our food requests that were supposed to be included in our $1000 room hire for 7 hours. One room. One staff member and 6 coffees. The staff member went to the same manager who'd put us through the drama on the Sunday night and he reluctantly allowed ONE non coffee or tea drink. I felt like a beggar. I would have paid. There's just no reason to behave like this. Also, all the coffees and teas we had the entire time, including IN ROOM DINING were delivered in paper cups with plastic lids. What?? I did mention all of this to the events team. They arranged for an apology note in the room and exactly two 'house wine only' drinks vouchers. Haha. Whatever. The rooms are ok, I would really like to throttle whoever thought that putting glass around a toilet as walls is a good idea. It's revolting. But the bed was comfortable and the room service was quick and hot-ish. I'm so confused. We stayed at the sister hotel the Incholm in Brisbane and did exactly the same thing, stayed and had an event with clients. It went off without a hitch and the staff were all terrific. I don't know what'd going on with this place. The location is good. The building itself if quite lovely. The staff. That's the issue. And a fish rots from the head. The one woman who took our tea and coffee orders was the best part of the entire stay. How silly. I'm sure I'll not hear from them, the manager didn't care on the day he's not going to care now. Especially given how dire the hospo industry is at the moment. I'm stunned they don't make an effort. All my clients are wedding photographers who can recommend venues to their clients, and then you guys behave like this???? Hahah. Ok. Won't return.
