My friend and I stayed at this hotel and on our second day decided to visit the hotel pool. We borrowed towels from the room, ensuring that this was okay by first asking a young male staff member. We of course did this with the intention of returning them, because who on earth would want to keep a communal hotel towel? During this time, housekeeping came to clean - replenishing the missing towels. The next morning was check out and we decided to visit the pool before our evening flight. I was cornered by a male and female staff member accusing my friend and I of stealing towels and leaving them at the beach. They told me that the cleaner counted missing towels, I told them the accusation was straight up ridiculous. We had literally RETURNED the used towels and were currently in a basket in the room. Feeling humiliated, I completed the check out and joined my friend at the pool. Not ten minutes later, the same man comes over with the most hostile attitude, alerting us that we had to pay a fine for missing towels or leave. He was determined to push this narrative that we were thieves and was extremely accusatory in doing so. After quite the heated interaction with this man, the staff finally decided to CHECK the room… as in, they literally didn’t even check to see if we had returned the towels before. This idea had strangely never crossed their minds before. I mean, I am more than understanding of a hotels frustration with constantly needing to replenish missing towels but come on, straight up accusing someone of stealing is ridiculous and humiliating. Once they realised their mistake, they were fairly apologetic and brought us a basket of snacks to apologise. For the lack of professionalism, hostility, and poor communication between staff members, I strongly urge you to find somewhere else to stay in San Antonio. But if you have to, save yourself the aneurysm and bring your own bloody towel.
