the room service stole money from my sister's family it was a terrible experience. i don't understand how this could happen in a hotel that presents itself so well. i found this completely unacceptable and shocking after the hotel seemed so trustworthy. i think the hotel should be held accountable for this incident and take immediate action to prevent similar situations in the future.
