- HHHaleyNov 22, 20251.0I came to the store at 1 o'clock for my daughter's birthday party, when we walked in we were told the room we had originally booked, because I had disabled family members who needed more space, was not available and we where given a tiny room . When I went to talk to the manager Keith about it he was disrespectful and rude , was not helpful at all he didn't do anything to help me. He also got in my face and snapped at me . I also heard and saw him being disrespectful and snapping at other staff members in front of a large group of people to the point where he had to be brought over were customers couldn't see him , this is not the first time I have had issues with this manager , or the first time that he has snapped at other employees in front of customers , I honestly think this guy should be fired !!
