"Hmmm. Stayed at a couple Ibis before, in Toulouse and Nice. Liked them. Nice places, great breakfast, clean etc. This place was the same. Efficient. The fitness centre is a small room that needs booking. Weights, couple cardio machines, mats. Clean and pleasant. I was a long stay at this Ibis, 6 nights, and emailed ahead about the possibility of a harbour view. The staff who checked me in said I was eligible for an upgrade - not sure why - but occupancy meant none was available. I didn’t argue or force the issue because that’s not me. I did get a quiet room, good. That night I checked on Expedia.ca this same hotel, out of curiosity, for a harbour view. One was available until Friday, 4 days into my stay. Why not, out of simply courtesy and respect, offer this to me, a solo traveller, with the proviso that I’d have to move come Friday night? Yes, it’s a little administrative and housekeeping work, and yet as a solo traveller I usually book doubles or twins, meant for two people, who split costs, while I, solo, absorb the full cost, despite the fact I require half the cleaning, half the towels and linen, half the breakfast costs. Why not occasionally, just once in a while, do a small favour for the solo traveller. It can be and often is stressful, and a little kindness goes a long way. And I’m not picking on Ibis here, simply all the hotels, mainly chains, which are thrilled to book solos into rooms meant for more, accept the charges, then do little to reciprocate. Soapbox over"
