Handling Difficult Guests in Hospitality

Dealing with tough guests can be really challenging. Recently, a guest was upset about a room mix-up during a busy weekend, and I had to think on my feet to resolve it quickly. I offered a complimentary upgrade and a sincere apology, which turned their experience around. I’m curious how others approach similar situations — any tips or techniques that work for you?
