Turn guest complaints into a department action queue

Group recurring issues while keeping urgent individual cases visible.

Approved AI assistantBeginnerOriginal editorial guide

What you’ll produce

An issue register with supporting guest excerpts, department owners, and proposed next steps.

Inputs & connections

  • Redacted complaints or guest-review exports
  • Department ownership and urgency rules

Begin with approved exports or pasted source material. Live access requires separately configured integrations and permissions; this guide does not install them.

Your starting prompt

Replace the bracketed fields. This is our suggested prompt, not a quote from the source.

Analyze [guest feedback] for [property]. Group specific operational issues and preserve a source reference for each. Show frequency within this sample, contradictory feedback, and urgent individual cases separately. Suggest a department owner and a next investigation step. Do not infer guest demographics or decide compensation. Draft no public response unless requested; label any response as requiring staff approval.

How to run it

  1. 01

    Assemble a bounded feedback sample with dates and source IDs.

  2. 02

    Have department heads define urgent issues that must never be hidden in a cluster.

  3. 03

    Review the first issue register against the original messages.

  4. 04

    Assign approved actions to owners and record the resolution outside the model.

KEEP A PERSON IN THE LOOP

Review before you act

Duty managers review safety issues immediately; department heads check that categories reflect the actual complaint.

Limitations & success checks

  • Sentiment classification can misread irony or translation.
  • Repeated comments may refer to one incident, not independent failures.

Measure: Missed urgent issues, useful actions accepted, and recurring unresolved themes.
