10 Hotel Desk Lies . . .

I will mail this immediately.
I would like to offer you my deepest apologies.
My pleasure.
Of course, I remember you! Welcome back!
I appreciate your feedback.
I’m sorry the bellman made you uncomfortable. I will certainly alert management.
There is nothing I can do.
I didn’t mean to sound so insulting.
We hope to see you again!
