I am using dial up right now at the NY Hilton on 6th and 54th. You want to know why? Because this hotel treats me like DIRT. I swear that I was treated better before I was Diamond Hilton Honors level. I used to get coupons for free takeout breakfast, now I don't even though lower levels of Hilton Honors get them. I used to get a room on a high floor, now I don't. I used to get rooms with small comforts like, I don't know, shampoo and soap, now I don't. I used to get a free bottle of water in my room, now I don't. My freakin rooms used to have internet access that actually worked, now I get to use dial up after trying to connect for two hours and spending almost all of that time on the phone with technical support. The (expletive deleted) TV used to work and now I have to get up and turn it off manually, the phone on the desk used to work and when my room smelled like smoke and I asked for a new one they USED TO OBLIGE. Oh, they set up a special desk in the lobby for Diamond level guests so that I can get treated more rudely then the regular check in, hell, the computer kiosks have more of a personality. In fact, I should use the kiosks from now on because at least I won’t walk away feeling like I bothered someone. I hate this hotel and I curse the Hilton name, except for Paris Hilton who is strange.
Sorry, I needed to vent. At least my room is not covered in large spiders and there are no snakes under my bed, I think. Plus, the bed is comfortable.
