Dear Friends, Greetings.
Yesterday, I had an unusual and unpleasant experience with a hotel, which I feel is important to share. A couple of my friends and I are planning to visit Goa between October 8th and 13th to attend the purple fest. I called a hotel to inquire about the price for two standard rooms. During my first call, they saw my photo through Truecaller and asked about my disability. I honestly explained my situation. They asked me to hold while they checked room availability, but they never called me back. Later, I called them again and was informed that two standard rooms for five nights would cost nearly ₹55,000. Out of curiosity, I called the same hotel from another number. This time, they assumed I was a non-disabled customer and responded immediately, confirming room availability and quoting ₹2,500 (including tax) for five nights and six days. This clear difference in treatment was upsetting. I kindly request the concerned organization to take action regarding this discriminatory Behaviour. Thanks and regards, shankar -- Disclaimer: 1.
