During my recent stay at the Hyatt, I had an unfortunate experience where I felt unfairly judged based on my appearance. As a military service member on leave, I was traveling from Colorado Springs and chose Hyatt due to its strong reputation for supporting military personnel. After a long drive, I was eager for a comfortable stay and expected the level of respect and service that the brand is known for. However, upon arrival, I was met with unprofessional treatment. When I inquired about a military discount, I was questioned in a manner that made me feel as if my active-duty status was in doubt. Furthermore, I was treated dismissively, as if my appearance somehow indicated that I couldn’t afford a suite. Only after agreeing to the price was I treated with the level of courtesy I should have received from the start. Customer satisfaction and room quality also fell short of the expectations I had for the price charged. Unfortunately, my experience was a clear reminder that appearances can influence the way guests are treated. I expected better from a brand that prides itself on professionalism, especially toward service members.
Travelers Beware!!! Avoid This Hotel at All Costs We booked through Capital One in advance, with everything fully paid before check-in. However, upon arrival, the hotel charged us twice more for our stay. The issues started as soon as we arrived. The lobby was run-down, with stained drop ceiling tiles and glitter scattered everywhere. Although the website promised express check-in, we waited over an hour. Only one elevator was working, with no inspection papers in sight, and it felt like it could break down any second—definitely not a comforting ride. Once in our room, the problems kept coming: the toilet didn’t work, the A/C was broken, the mattress was stained, and the alarm clock was busted. To top it off, when we tried to connect to the WiFi, the instructions said to dial “0” for the front desk—but the phone didn’t work. We checked out early and are still fighting to get a refund. Stay away from this place—it’s not worth the hassle.
