Sexual assault survivor calls failure of Travelodge boss to meet MPs shocking'
"I think if you are the CEO of a company, then you have a responsibility to answer these questions and engage in that situation, and say how you're going to now improve. You're not protecting people and I mean, I personally find it quite shocking."
"If you're really that worried about safeguarding and protecting people and making sure your guests are safe, then why are you not attending these kinds of meetings with MPs?"
"Boydell has previously apologized to the victim, who cannot be named. She said the company had made immediate changes to its door key policy."
"The survivor said suggestions from the chief executive there had been deadbolts on the doors were deflection, and she knew she had locked her door on the night of the attack."
A woman sexually assaulted at a Travelodge expressed shock over the CEO's cancellation of a meeting with MPs addressing security concerns. Over 20 MPs sought to discuss the incident and the hotel's inadequate response, including a mere 30 refund offered to the victim. The survivor criticized the CEO for not engaging with MPs and emphasized the need for accountability and improvements in safety measures. The CEO had previously apologized and stated that changes to the door key policy were made, but the survivor felt the responses were insufficient and evasive.
