We had a really bad experience at the hotel, we left obviously by mistake 2 rings and a watch, nothing expensive but still 650usd worth between the 3 of them. The problem is that we are sure we left them in the room while we went to have a massage. Meanwhile the cleaning service was in the room. When we went back we couldn’t find the items and reported it to the security and front desk. They assured us they’ll get in touch with us and they didn’t. We had to go ask about our case, which by the way was never solved. If I was you, I wouldn’t stay there… you have the risk of being robbed.
