Expected to pay for Wi-Fi! Really?

Catch up with the modern age, Marriott! Free Wi-Fi is simply expected.

Sehr geehrter Gast, vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. Leider müssen wir feststellen, dass Sie sich nicht 100% mit unserer Vorstellung von gutem Service identifizieren konnten. Fragen Sie beim nächsten Mal gerne nach einem barrierefreien Zimmer, damit wir dies für Sie vor blocken können. Mit herzlichen Grüßen

Gutes Hotel in der Nähe der Arena von Schalke04. Falls kein Heimspiel ansteht hat es viele Gratisparkplätze direkt vor dem Hotel. Gut ausgewogenes Frühstücksbuffet und sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal.

Frühstück

Frühstückschaos, erst heisst es ich habe kein Frühstück gebucht, was richtig ist. Ich habe nur ein Omelett bestellt. Plötzlich habe ich laut MA doch Frühstück drin. Bezahlen musste ich dann 19 €. Finde ich echt frech und unhöflich war die Dame auch noch. Nicht Courtyard like.
