The meeting receptionist gave me a bad impression. When I reported on duty, the receptionist seemed like I had nothing to do with them. They were just playing on their phone until I asked them to register. Then I came to the front table to check in, but the receptionist told me that there were no rooms available at the moment. I asked her how long I would wait. She said she didn’t know and told me just to wait until someone checked out. Because there were few chairs in the hotel lobby, I had to go out of the hotel and get around. But unfortunately, it was raining back then, however it was just a drizzle. A little while later, I returned to the front table. They still didn’t have an available room. It was about lunch time. The meeting receptionist told me that I could eat lunch first, and after lunch, I could recheck if the hotel had a room available. In the end, I waited for a long time after lunch before I checked in.

Not bad! I made some detailed correction to help make your description more precise, but the most important error is actually at the beginning. After reading the whole thing, I realize you're describing the process of checking into a hotel (and being ignored by the receptionist). But in the second sentence, you say "When I reported on duty, the receptionist seemed like I had nothing to do with them." "Reporting for duty" is used usually when one is announcing their presence for some sort of official reasons, usually to do some work. Eg "The soldiers entered the lieutenant's tend and reported for duty." While I understand everything else, the first two sentences completely threw me off, as it sounded like you were describing someone showing up for a meeting at the hotel, or looking to start a shift working at the hotel. Instead you could say "When I arrived at the hotel I had booked and went to reception to check-in, the receptionist completely ignored me and treated me as if I had no business being there." There are of course many ways you could express this but the thing I want you to pay attention to is that while in the rest of the paragraph I understand your meaning (even if there were some grammatical mistakes), the first two sentences did not convey your meaning, so I'd definitely pay attention to understanding your mistake there.
