Ramada Conference Center Warner Robins - Warner Robins

Antwort von Ramada Conference Center Warner Robins Thank you for your review and we always appreciate feedback from our guests. We apologize if you were less than satisfied with your room. I did some research during the month of March for Hotels.com reservations and found that you stayed in one of our deluxe rooms at a very good rate for a 3-day stay. The room is located upstairs in our A building, our deluxe wing and not far from the hotel’s front office. It has an upgraded television, microwave and fridge, (not all of our rooms have this luxury), iron/ironing board, and coffee maker. All our rooms have our distinguished comfortable mattresses. I also checked our “Courtesy Call Log” at the front desk and found no written dissatisfied comments about this room during your stay. Other guests checked in and out of the room since your stay with no complaints or comments. We wished that you would have brought your concerns to us during your stay and that way we could have alleviated any problems immediately! Our hotel is exclusively set off from busy traffic in a safe lighted area with nearby city offices and new Law Enforcement Center located only 7 minutes away. There are many recognized name restaurants within walking and driving distances. Again, we appreciate your valuable feedback. We welcome you back at a very affordable rate for a mid-scale hotel and a pleasant and comfortable guest experience. General Manager Ramada Warner Robins

Antwort von Ramada Conference Center Warner Robins Thank you for sharing your comments with us. We regret that you found our hotel to be not to the standards expected. This property is one of the largest in Warner Robins with 100 guest rooms and 5 meeting rooms and there may be some rooms that are more “challenged” than others. We always give guests the opportunity to preview their room before check-in and our front desk is trained to exchange the room immediately if not completely satisfied. All we require is that guests inform the front desk during their stay. We have made great strides since opening as the Ramada in 2009 when this property was in total disrepair. The landscaping was enhanced and beautified, the Wireless Internet upgraded with 24/7 hour service, older fitness equipment replaced, ergonometric desk chairs added, worn carpeting replaced in pre-function area, older shower fixtures replaced with newer ones, mattresses replaced, and new pool furniture and picnic tables added. Currently we are refreshing the rooms with cleaning carpets, painting, and fixing wallpaper. There is still more work to be done and we have several more projects on our plate to include replacing older TVs in phases, updating furnishings, and replenishing towels and linens. We regret that you found the breakfast to be less than filling. Our complimentary continental breakfast has a variety of food items including mini-muffins, doughnuts and bagels, toast, instant oatmeal, six assorted cold cereals, cranberry and orange juice, coffee, tea, and fruit. We are continually tweaking our food presentation to ensure it meets the needs of our guests. Again we appreciate you taking much time to address your concerns and it helps us to improve our guest services, amenities, and facility. Best Regards,

Antwort von Ramada Conference Center Warner Robins Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I apologize if you found the room to be disappointing we could have offered another room. We always give guests the opportunity to preview their room before check-in and our front desk staff is trained to exchange the room if a guest is not completely satisfied. Granted this is an established and “veteran” hotel in Warner Robins with 100 rooms. There are some rooms that are more “challenged” than others.

Antwort von Ramada Conference Center Warner Robins Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at our hotel. Certainly we did not intend for you buy cleaning supplies to clean your room as that wasn’t necessary. A better solution would have been to contact the front desk and report your dissatisfaction immediately. That way we would have directed our housekeeping team to spot clean, freshen-up and tidy the room. We are very approachable and take time to give personable attention to each guest. Or we could have exchanged your room for another that you found more pleasing. We have a policy of contacting the guest soon after they settle in and ask if they are satisfied with their room--that way we can make immediate corrections if needed. Apparently this was not done and I apologize for this omission. I also conducted an extensive meeting with the entire housekeeping staff to discuss the importance of using the three critical senses of sight, smell, and touch in conjunction with their housekeeping checklists. This will help prevent glaring discrepancies. Ramada Inn is the most established hotel in Warner Robins with 5 ½ acres and 100 guest rooms.

Antwort von Ramada Conference Center Warner Robins I would like to offer my sincerest apologies for your less than stellar experience at our hotel. Since your stay we have brought in our dedicated AC repairman to check and repair the AC units that are not cooling properly. This is an established and respected property and one of the largest in Warner Robins with 100 rooms. Perhaps there are some units that require more attention than others. Our housekeeping manager has been tasked to inspect the appearance of bed skirts and bedding and to ensure rooms have a pleasant fragrance. This has been highlighted on the checklist. Our pool is a very attractive feature for our property--kidney shaped and one of the deepest for a hotel at 9 feet deep. Unfortunately with the hot weather and recent rain we had some clarity challenges and will treat it accordingly to make it crystal clear once again. New pool treatment supplies are on order to rectify this issue. We are sorry and regret the inconvenience it may have caused to you and your family.

We have a dedicated air conditioning maintenance man and also our head housekeeper who is currently checking the AC units in our rooms. I was surprised to hear that our front desk agents advised you to buy a fan! That is surprising to hear as we are very cordial and accommodating to our guests and their requests. We do have fans available to our guests if there are AC inoperable issues and will certainly rooms immediately if it does not meet expectations. I also hope you let our front desk know about the toilet leaking. We have a ticket book for our maintenance man who specializes in plumbing. Nevertheless we have alerted him to leakage in our rooms. Regarding “undesirables” we have many guests from families to business personnel, construction crews, vacationers and extended stays at our property. We are close to the Warner Robins city offices and law enforcement center. So it was not out of the norm for them to be conducting their daily patrols which is a great service to our community.
