Re: A cautionary tale, especially for returners
It helps no one to hide the name of this hotel. In fact, it sets the rest of us up for the same problem, and the ONLY way these problems get fixed is when concerned groups - like on this site - demand better. That happens with either a change of policy by management driven by customer concern, or by groups such as this preparing, looking out for, and protecting each other. I understand you do not want to harm the hotel, but the greater responsibility is to fellow people who you may be able to spare the same material loss, or worse, the bodily harm so many here have been thankful you were not inflicted, simply by letting other guests know where you were staying and what to watch out for. What about the next couple who are gravely harmed because nobody said anything? If the same thing happened in your home, the city where you live, with any significant purchase you made such as car, appliance, etc. you would demand better and likely be vocal about telling others, which in fact better informs and protects them from similar problems. To hide the name of the hotel is a little like sitting in the dark hoping the problem goes away on it's own, and how many times does that happen?. At worse it's setting fellow travelers up for the same unfortunate experience, or far, far worse. As one post already stated, unfortunately you can expect no help from local law enforcement, and all we've got as tourists are each other. I will look out for you, but will you do the same for me?
