"I found the receptionist at the Business Club to be somewhat unapproachable. When I approached her for assistance, her tone came across as unfriendly and not particularly welcoming. At times, it felt as though my requests for help were an inconvenience rather than an opportunity to assist a guest. Given that the Business Club is a guest-facing area, I would expect a warmer, more approachable, and service-oriented attitude. A friendlier tone and greater willingness to assist would make the experience considerably more positive."
