We are no longer staying here so just a hypothetical as me and DW didn’t agree, For background, myself and DW visited a resort, it was a complimentary stay they offered due to a previous issue which we were very grateful for and consider the issue resolved. In the past we have attended this location many times and always buy to the room a very fancy dairy-free chocolate box, which they sell as we are vegan due to DW’s severe milk allergy. This time we found in our accommodation they had left us a complimentary box of regular chocolates (equal in value) with a kind note welcoming us. DW found the gesture nice (as did I) however I suggested thanking them but asking if we could switch it for the chocolate we normally get (which I know for a fact they have) however she thought this was very rude and ungrateful and thought we should just leave the chocolate in the room. Who is being unreasonable?

YABU: you were right to just leave it, it would be very rude to ask to exchange something that was free anyway

YANBU: it isn’t rude to ask and it means their kind gesture isn’t going to waste

I would have asked to swap, then no waste

And thought it bad service if somewhere they had captured my milk allergy but then ignored it?

(Assuming it's captured each visit and not just expecting them to remember)
