Title: Pleasant Stay Ruined by Poor Management and Lost Property
For the most part, our stay at Hotel Landy was enjoyable. The rooms were clean, the beds comfortable, and the eighth floor was quiet, ensuring a restful stay. René was exceptional—friendly, attentive, and consistently helpful.
However, several issues tarnished our experience. First, there were no Christmas activities, forcing us to go elsewhere to celebrate. Then, on 27th December, the hotel had a full water outage, leaving us unable to shower. This completely ruined our plans to return to Universal Studios, for which we’d already purchased tickets. Instead, we spent the day at the pool, but even getting towels became a struggle as our repeated requests were ignored. Thankfully, René stepped in and personally delivered them. Reception did compensate us for the inconvenience, but my request to speak with management was never followed up on.
The most upsetting issue came after checkout. On 30th December, I realized at the airport that I’d left two jackets (a black puffer with a fur collar and a green-grey puffer) in our room. I contacted the hotel immediately and followed up repeatedly, but my messages were ignored. A month later, I was informed the jackets were “not found.” This lack of accountability and communication suggests they were either stolen or mishandled by staff.
Despite the positives, these issues, especially the handling of my lost property, mean I would not return. Proceed with caution.
