We arrived at our hotel, parked the car and wrestled with our bags and clothes on hangers so we could get ready quickly to head to a wedding of one of our team, the lovely Edel and her soon to be husband Dave.
I sour puss greeted us as reception as she saw us approaching “Check-in isn’t until 3” she warmly (not) greeted us!
Deirdre explained that she needed to change quickly to get ready for a wedding close-by, so if there was anything at all she could do, it would be much appreciated.
Without too much bother and a click of her screen we were handed the keys to a room that was ready.
How hard was that?!!
We left our friendly receptionist and went to find our room – we passed a woman who was cleaning rooms who gave us a big friendly hello.
We got to our room and neither of our key cards seemed to work …. here we go, I thought !!
Just as we were about to trundle back to our favourite receptionist, another cleaning lady who had seen us struggling with the door asked if she could help.
“There is a knack to these doors” she explained as she took the key card from us, quickly swiped and presto, success!
With a big smile, she held the door open for us and wished us a lovely stay.
Maybe she was just having a bad day or maybe, just maybe the wrong person is on the reception desk?
Make sure your Manager of First Impressions is doing just that.
