Me neither, especially because it is the first time I visit LA.

I don't think I'll be going anywhere outside of the hotel unless it's in the evening. Just no time.

Now Twinkle she works hard to call herself Scottish!

As do some whisky bottles I have at home
I'm sorry for all the troubles Twinkle and Shannon went trough. I didn't eat at the hotel's restaurants at all, except for breakfast at the Starbucks booth.
And speaking of the Marriott, it seems they charged me $27 out of nothing! I must check it.

Ahh details, details my dear Geoff! Being Scottish is not something you can just be born into and bugger off and leave :P Now Twinkle she works hard to call herself Scottish!

Jeff, seriously Im sorry to break this to you. I know how much everyone wants to be Scottish, but your English mate. A clear indication of your lack of Scottishness, is the lack of vodka in your pinapple juice.

I've only just discovered this thread, and read about Twinks' ordeal.

I'm wondering if the hotel, by offering free accommodation, wouldn't have been admitting liability and opening itself to legal action.

There must have been many precedents for them to wash their hands so promptly and callously, and I can't believe there weren't any rooms free.

I think I'll just familiarise myself with the proper procedure to follow in case something...

I hope you are feeling better Twinks. That is certainly ridiculous customer service. but please don't dump a convention and meeting up with all your friends because of that. the travelodge i believe was very good and also there is a sheraton just around the corner that was as cheap as the travelodge.

I know, it is too convenient to not stay there for most Xenites, but I can hardly blame you for not wanting to, Twink! I just hope you'll be there next year because I WILL get Leigh and myself there, come hell or high water! (hmmm that is an odd expression, isn't it?)

aww twinks. conventions wont be the same without you. you simply have to be there, especially if i decide to go next time!

Oh my goodness, twinks. I'd hate to think of you missing out on the convention because of this! You know, you could stay at a different hotel (the Travelodge just down the street is quite good). That way you don't have to put any money in the hotel's pockets.

maybe just inform them that you won't be staying there for the next convention, and that you will be advising all your Xenite friends not to, either Twink. That's just horrible customer service.

Ouch, twinks! You know, I actually saw you leaving in the ambulance Monday (I came back to the hotel around 3:30 after my speaking engagement and then hung around the lobby working on my laptop until almost 9 pm). I saw Shen running around looking worried and then I saw an ambulance arrive and you being led to the front...
