Bad service at the Protea Hotel Bloemfontein

On arrival (19 March 2015) at the Bloemfontein Protea Hotel none of the air conditioners were working. A fan was brought to my room and I was told that the repair people were going to attend to it the following day. I left the hotel on the 23 March 2015 and the air cons were still not fixed.<br> On the night of the 20th, I was the last to dish from the bowl of fruit salad. I discovered that the fruit salad was rancid. This rancid food was served to our learners. The manager's reply to my grievance was ludicrous. Furthermore the whole fruit (bananas and apples) were way past their sell by date. You could purchase better and fresher fruit from your street vendors.<br> The question I beg to ask. Was the rancid and old fruit served to us:<br> 1. These were school kids.<br> 2. These were Black school kids.<br> 3. These were Deaf Black school kids.<br> On the morning of my departure at 6 am I spoke to a lady that stayed for one night only and was booking into another hotel because of the appalling conditions of your Bloemfontein branch.<br> Your intervention must be priority and from our perspective a reimbur*****t and an apology to the Deaf Sports Federation will be in order.
