Greetings purc77 We are very sorry that we did not make you feel belong - we will address this with the team. We do accept debit card for any other transaction except for pre-authorization upon check in because this will create an issue to release the pre-authorization amount back to the card holder. I will ensure the Front Desk team is properly briefed to explain this to our guests. Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused. Our Engineering team is checking on the plumbing issue and we hoped to resolve this problem as soon as possible. Once again, we thank you for letting us know as we believe we can only improve ourselves through guests' feedback. Last but not least, we hoped you would give us another opportunity to make amends and welcome you back be well Ko van den Hil General Manager
