The experience at the hotel left a dirty feeling, with a pervasive sense of being low-rent, perhaps reflective of the $45 nightly rate. Despite a five-night stay, the only redeeming aspect was the friendly and helpful staff, albeit marred by being checked into a room under construction.
Post-checkout, the incessant calls requesting a review were intrusive and annoying. The pressure to leave a glowing, five-star review, coupled with the insistence on being on the phone during the process, felt like coercion. Spending 39 minutes tethered to a call, just to fulfill their demand, is unacceptable.
To OYO Corporate: This review is a result of your relentless pursuit for feedback. Calling repeatedly and then dictating the terms of the review is manipulative. Genuine reviews should come organically, not under duress. Respect your guests' autonomy and let reviews happen naturally.
