Dear Mr Smith,
My family and I went to San Antonio on vacation last month. When we got there, we lived in the Jumping Tiger Hotel. We stayed there from May 13th to May 17th.
We had a good time visiting the Alamo, Sea World San Antonio and other places of interest. We liked the restaurant in your hotel, but we were not happy with the room because it was kind of dirty.
We found hairs on the bathroom floor when we arrived, and there was rubbish here and there. On the second day, when we got back, we found that no one made the beds. I asked for the room service (服务), but your workers said they didn’t have enough hands and couldn’t do it on that day.
If you didn’t have enough hands, there would be some problems. Now I don’t want to complain(抱怨) about the bad room service anymore. In fact, we paid for all the service, but no one cleaned our room. So we would like you to give back part of the money we paid. You may talk about this with me at any time. And my phone number is 806-443-2342.Or, when you are free, you can email me at vacationfamily@ gmail.com.
Please write to me soon.
Yours sincerely,
Helen Brown
