has come under fire after a visually impaired woman was told to leave by a staff member because she had a service dog with her.
"I am being kicked out of the National Hotel, which I have just paid for the accommodation," Whittle said as she filmed the interaction."You didn't state that you had a service animal and if you did we would have refunded it before," an employee said. "Eventually she came back and said that she did it through Policelink so the police will not be attending but I will be getting charged," she said.
The National Hotel in Toowoomba said in a statement the young staff member informed senior management of what happened and was told she had made a mistake.
