... there don't seem to be any!
You've heard Rob and Catherine complaining about the lack of slippers in their rooms. Poor things, we don't want their feet to get cold! And if you're ever in the same position, we hope that the tips you learned mean you won't get cold feet either. Remember, if you want to be both polite and firm:

2) Use phrases like seem to and appear to to soften your language

Session Vocabulary
Tips for making complaints
1) Tell a story: Give some background before mentioning your complaint. But keep it short!
- I've just checked into room 401. It's a lovely room, but the problem is that I was really desperate for a drink and the mini-bar's empty.
2) Soften your tone: Use seem to and appear to to make your language softer. They're often used with be. In the negative, you need an auxiliary like can't or don't.
- Sorry, there seems to be a problem with the radio.
- Excuse me, there appears tobe a problem with your ticket.
- I can't seem to get the TV to work.
- There don't appear to be any slippers in the room.
