点评:Turned away from the driving range 20 minutes before closing.
I arrived on Friday 25 September at 18:40 and asked to hit a few balls. The range was open until 19:00, but I was told I could not, because they had "already closed the accounts for the day".
When I asked why, given that I was well inside opening hours, the answer came in an extremely rude tone and made no sense at all. I was told that if they allowed this, they "would have to be open 24 hours". I was not asking for special treatment. I was asking to use a facility that was still open for another twenty minutes.
A club that markets itself as premium and five star does not send a customer away inside its own opening hours, and does not speak to that customer the way I was spoken to. If the range really closes at 18:30 for accounting reasons, then publish 18:30.
I left without playing and will not be back. There are plenty of courses in the Algarve where the welcome matches the price list.
翻译:闭馆前20分钟,我被拒之门外,无法使用练习场。
9月25日星期五18点40分我到达现场,请求打几个球。练习场原定营业至19点,但我被告知不行,理由是“当天的账目已经结清”。
当我询问为何如此,毕竟此时仍在营业时间内时,对方以极其粗鲁的语气回应,且理由毫无逻辑可言。他们说我若允许我打球,“那他们就不得不24小时营业了”。我并没有要求特殊待遇。我只是想使用一个在接下来二十分钟内仍对外开放的设施而已。
一家以高端、五星级自诩的俱乐部,绝不应该在营业时间内拒绝对方入内,更不该用那种口气与顾客交谈。如果出于财务结算的需要,场馆确实在18:30关门,那就应该明确标明18:30关门。
我没能打球就离开了,以后也不会再光顾了。在阿尔加维有很多球场,其接待服务与价格相符。
