The unhelpful and rude staff, along with the dirty, unkept nature of some of the rooms tend to be a common theme. When we arrived, the "suite" given to us was filthy! The tub was black and the shower curtain covered in mold and ripped. After being made feel like the hotel was doing us a HUGE favor, we were given a room in which the air conditioning barely worked and the walls so thin we could here everything that was going on in the room next to us. The spa was closed, even though in two confirmation emails, we were not alerted to this fact and as another traveller notes, construction continued while we were there, distributing the pool area. Not only did the staff treat us with distain, they also gave our room to new guests prior to the noon check out on the day we were leaving. A man entered the room while I was standing in the room just showered with only a towel on. The front staff only laughed. Given the country has a 22% unemployment rate, I believe better more guest friendly staff could be easily found. The ones presently there do not care much for customer or guest service and should be terminated.

The Villagio Hotel Management is not surprised to see a review from the third of the three passengers who stayed at our Hotel and were disappointed, BUT ONLY BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T GET AWAY WITH WHAT THEY WANTED, which was to get two double bedrooms for the price of one, just because they decided they didn’t want to take the triple room that they had booked on-line.
We do recognize their imagination to come up with all these negative comments which are not true, as well as their ability to keep their written comments within the Trip Advisor’s guidelines and proper use of the English language, when they used a completely different and inappropriate language to treat and threaten our Hotel personnel during their stay.
Fortunately, the prospect passengers have the choice to ignore these three reviews and read the reviews which put the Villagio Hotel at a rate of 90% satisfaction, reflecting what really happens at our Hotel. We are not perfect for everybody, but we are not a filthy hotel with horribly rude staff, to the contrary, we have excellent customer service and we are constantly working to improve our facility and our service.
Not much more can be said that we have not already mentioned on our reply to the other reviews, except that we hope our future guests continue to show why the Villagio Hotel is an excellent choice for Mendoza: a great location, friendly service, and value for money
