I acquired an older unit at Pollard Brook for week 31 annual-free- sight unseen. I found out via the owners Facebook page that the unit was under construction- this from someone who owns in that unit, but week 12. They put her in a different unit this past March. So, the resort concierge, as well as other owners in that building, sent me pics of their other units so I could see what it looked like and some said their units were updated within the past two years. Well, ok, that sounded great. The concierge said the unit should be finished in June. So, my husband and I, since we are staying in North Conway this week, decided today to take a ride over to Lincoln and see if we could see the unit. Front desk tells us "no" since it is under construction. I tell him that it was supposed to be almost finished by now. Well, we walk over to the building, which is very old- the walkways were dirty and there was a big footprint on our unit's door. The shades were drawn. No evidence of any work being done- this in mid afternoon. Got a bad feeling...
Back to front desk- he says he didn't know the unit has been under construction since March. Must be delays. Huh? What could they be doing in there that would take this long, IF they are doing anything? Another snippy young woman hanging at the desk tells me it isn't June yet! Oh, really?- ok- well in two days it will be June- the unit should be at least almost finished...
I have an email to the concierge and a post on Facebook and I will be trying to contact Pollard Brook corporate and VRI when I get back from vacation, but I found this very disturbing and even more so the uncouth front desk personnel did nothing to instill a sense of confidence in us, such as "don't worry Mr. and Mrs. Pumilia- it will be done by the time you get up here week 31. It is coming along very nicely..., etc" No- we got the snippy remark from the young "lady" and a head shaking "Liberty Lodge building needs a lot of work"-But- oh- you can use the pool if you'd like. No I do not like- I want to like my unit!
Any thoughts?
