AIBU to expect a more sincere response to a complaint (DM’s funeral tea) than an AI response?

I've waited weeks for a response to a complaint about the awful communication and service provided by a hotel when providing a room and food for my DM’s funeral tea.
After chasing the complaint I'm told the manager has gone and someone else has taken on the complaint.
I have received the response, AI generated. It turns around my complaint with an apology and a ‘we will address the issue raised’ for each point I made.

I feel a sense of insincerity, disrespect and a ‘get this off the books/tick box’ approach - but I'm not sure if I am being unreasonable?

YABU - AI generated is fine in response to the complaint
YANBU - AI generated response is not ok, especially given the circumstances.

You posted about this the other day? Just phone them.

I haven't posted about this before.

I have phoned them. That prompted the email response.

YANBU, sounds like they're compounding their 'awful communication and service'.

Sounds like they've got staffing issues and no one competent to deal with you properly.

I don’t think you’re unreasonable but I’m not sure what else you can do.

What went wrong on the day?
