Our stay was great the only thing was we had a corner room by a door and people kept coming in and out and the door would slam everytime, also an hour before check out the maid came by knocked once we didn't even get a change to get to the door and she was coming in to our room. I really did not appreciate that at all. Before I forget we stayed there two nights and I did ask front desk for more towels, this was earlier in the morning then about noon or so I had to ask again and a gentleman vacuuming brought them right over.

To: Manager, Holiday Inn Express – Hayward/Castro Valley CC: IHG Customer Care Subject: Formal Complaint Regarding Unprofessional and Disruptive Conduct Dear Manager, I am writing to formally express my deep dissatisfaction and disappointment with the way your staff handled my reservation at the Holiday Inn Express in Hayward/Castro Valley. I had a confirmed reservation through Expedia, made well in advance, and yet upon arrival or follow-up, I was informed that my booking had been canceled without notice or consent. The explanation given—that you “closed online bookings hours ago”—was completely unacceptable and irrelevant. The reservation was valid at the time it was made. This behavior reflects an alarming lack of professionalism and responsibility from your team. As a paying guest with a confirmed reservation, I expected to be treated with respect, courtesy, and basic hospitality—none of which were present in this interaction. As a result of your staff’s actions: • I was left stranded without accommodations. • I had to scramble to find a last-minute hotel at a much higher price. • I experienced significant stress, frustration, and discomfort. There was no apology, no help offered, and no ownership of the mistake. This is completely unacceptable from an IHG-branded hotel, and it has made me reconsider trusting Holiday Inn Express in the future. I am demanding the following: A written apology from your management. An internal review of how this was allowed t
