Establishment: Boston Marriott Long Wharf
This person says...I just wanted to say “thanks” to you and your people. Progressive has gone “outside the box” twice this week to help us out. Even in this service-driven business this kind of response is becoming increasingly rare. It’s great to know that there is someone we can count on and who will exceed our expectations each and every time.   You and your customer service people are number one in our book, Theresa and Elyse are especially so!
