@Jim : I think when you’re reviewing a complementary stay and you’re doing it as a travel blogger, there’s a lot of mixed feelings. And personally, I’m always a little slow to react to personal affront. This definite taught me a lesson of having stricter parameters.

@KT: ” I just saw bigfoot riding a unicorn”… I love that. =D

@travelinwrite: My thoughts exactly! Good lesson and it made me look at how some businesses might work with bloggers but also see them in a beggarly light? That’s the only explanation for that treatment.

@Neisha: All my thought could grasp was maybe it was confusion or carelessness?

@gayatrikale: I feel the same! Although I understand how challenging it is for those bloggers too. It’s never easy to give less than stellar reviews on a comped stay. Thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment.
