City Lodge Lynnwood no longer on the ball

I checked into City Lodge Lynnwood in Pretoria on 8 April 2019 and will check out on 13 April. The safe in my room cannot be locked. When I left my room on the morning of 9 April I placed the two towels that I used on the rail with the two unused towels. The staff then removed all 4 towels ( so they actually wash unused towels) and did not replace any of the towels. At 18:30 on 9 April I phoned reception (99) and asked for a towel. No apology, just we will attend to this. An hour later nothing happened and I phoned again. Two towels were delivered at 20:00, 90 minutes after my first call. Sorry City Lodge Lynnwood, not good enough. We all make mistakes, but then you sort it out as a matter of urgency. Dr P van Breda
