I have received it through IHG Guest relations and was not aware of it until this morning. I have copied the email to go over with the executive housekeeper. While we have been challenged with very large sports groups, staying one week or longer, it is no excuse for poor service. I was not aware that the complimentary room was not a direct benefit to you. In lieu of the issues you encountered I will add 10,000 priority club points to your account. The description of your stay, by no means, represents the type of service we strive to present to all guests. Thank you for taking the time to let me know. If I may be of any further service please do not hesitate to contact me directly my cell phone number is 317-640-2708.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely<br \/>\nGary W Miller<\/p>\n<p>General Manager<br \/>\nStaybridge Suites<br \/>\nIndianapolis\/ Fishers<br \/>\n317-577-9500<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And from the other manager (quoted as sent, including any typos):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Hi Warren,<\/p>\n<p>I was reading over your comments in regards to your recent stay with us. I want to sincerely apologize for the problems that you encountered. I understand that the company was paying for your stay and that the comp night was not an actual benefit to you. I have included a free night certificate for you to use in the future. While it doesn\u2019t make up for the problems you had, I hope that you and your family can use it for personal use next time you are in the area. I have also upgraded the room type to a one bedroom suite for you. I will be sure to address these items with housekeeping and the front desk, so that the same mistakes doe not incur. Again, please accept my sincerest apologies.<\/p>\n<p>Natalie Page<br \/>\nGuest Services Manager<br \/>\nStaybridge Suites Fishers-Indianapolis<br \/>\n317-712-5101 direct dial<br \/>\n317-577-9500 front desk<br \/>\n317-712-5200 fax<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>When I emailed <a href=\"mailto:gmiller@imd1.com\">Gary<\/a> this morning asking why he had not replied to the emails I sent him <em><strong>directly<\/strong><\/em>, this was his reply:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Mr. Meyers<\/p>\n<p>That is the correct email address.
