Every time I see a post about Samsara I cringe. I've stayed there quite a few times over the years and used to be a big fan. That was before I was rudely kicked out while walking up to the bar with my wife. It seemed Maurice didn't like the fact we weren't staying there. We were down there for a couple of months so were staying someplace more economical. At the time he had a big sign painted on the wall outside that said " public welcome". I also had a room booked for my parents there for a two week stay in my name booked on my credit card. He shouted and cursed at me and my wife. This was the first day of our trip. I've spent a lot of money there over the years and was really offended with the way we were treated. You my think you know Maurice but if you deal with him you are taking the chance of finding yourselves on the receiving end of one of his phsycotic episodes. I would avoid any dealings with him. I've had many conversations with locals in the neighborhood about this and was told this is a common thing with him, just ask someone.
