Wyndham Gatineau-Ottawa & Conference Centre

Wyndham Gatineau-Ottawa & Conference Centre

8/10 Good
"Général: Hôtel en rénovation, l’eau avait été coupée et il a fallu faire couler l’eau du robinet pour qu’elle soit claire. Malheureusement il n’y avait pas de bouteille d’eau de disponible dans l’hôtel. Staff: Excellent service au Front Desk, il y avait 6 clients qui attendait pour s’enregistrer et la personne au comptoir était seule. Le préposé a géré la situation avec professionnalisme, calme et gentillesse. Propreté: Il y des couverts et ustensiles de disponible dans la chambre mais il faut les vérifier attentivement, ça un couteau avait seulement été essuyé et non lavé. Il y avait des traces d’un aliment collant dessus."
