Grandma's 50th Birthday Trip to Turkey Becomes Nightmare
4 Oct
Summary
- Family of five suffered severe vomiting and diarrhea during their holiday.
- Grandson, aged one, required hospital treatment for dehydration.
- Hotel staff allegedly offered to do laundry if negative reviews were deleted.
A family trip to a five-star hotel in Turkey for a 50th birthday celebration ended in distress for Tammy Turner and her family. What was anticipated as a joyous occasion became a "worst experience ever" due to a widespread sickness bug.
The family, including Turner, her mother, daughter, and one-year-old grandson, Blake, experienced severe vomiting and diarrhea throughout their stay. The youngest member, Blake, fell ill on the second day and required hospitalization for dehydration, necessitating IV treatment and further assessments.
Turner claims hotel staff attempted to mitigate negative feedback by offering to do their laundry in exchange for deleting online comments about their illness. She also reported witnessing unhygienic conditions in the dining area, including a customer handling food and stray cats present.
A spokesperson for the booking company, loveholidays, stated they are investigating the issues urgently and have apologized to Ms. Turner, promising to work towards a resolution.
