		<description>We just stayed for the first time at lowes concord in Quebec city. I was very disappointed. We never received our turn down service, no newspaper, no 20 dollar voucher as promised for dinner, no bath robes, a dirty room and no assistance to our room with our luggage. I have been trying unsuccessfully to contact Mr Tisch. I think he should visit this site himself. cleanliness is poor. Would like to have someone address this and get back to me
Thank you</description>

		<description>These two statements stand out for me 
&quot; How myriad options have spoiled the customer, and what your business must do to adjust.
Using customer feedback to improve your business in real time.&quot;
Customers have definitely been spoiled and businesses must ensure that they stay on top of what their competitors are offering to ensure they retain the customers they have as well as promotion for new customers.  Also customers feedback is something that should be encouraged and followed up on.  Of course not every customer comment will be something you can do about but if a customer takes the time to comment then you need to as a business take the time to respond to ensure they know you ARE listening.</description>

		<description>Basic customer service should not come from a book. It should come from common sense.</description>

		<description>The CEO of this company is like so many of the other scum that we all hear so much about.  He should be put in prison for what he thinks he does so wonderful and yet screws over the public.  Do not stay at a Lowes Hotel. It was a nightmare and when I tried to reach him to let him know what happened they DO NOT CARE and only wish to take everyones money and laugh in the end....  We never heard back from our complaint and tell everyone we know how pathetic they are.  We own a fortune 500 company and even announced it to our entire staff.  Hope they fail in the economy.  They deserve it.  He acts like he cares and even wrote a book on customer service.  Again, it must be about what he can get out of it because they certainly don&#039;t care about the consumer.  Shame on you!</description>
