CBB, I am sorry your “one night” experience was so traumatizing that it clouds your receipt of the big picture here. Afterall, this is not about just one establishment, or old bones to pick. I am a bit surprised at your comment, considering how well versed you are on the runnings, and how this has or will effect or is effecting your own friends mentioned. I too (as I am sure everyone else has) had a similar experience, at another establishment, my very first trip to Jamaica. I simply asked, and received another room. Also learned to pack ear plugs and found other more amicable accommodations on every future trip thereby adapting to the environment. Further, the music and the LOCALS vibe are what draws many back.
OT, lol, you remind me of how I was feeling when a certain person was named president. You need not be embarrassed by another’s actions. Sadly we can not control others. This has nothing to do with one’s nationality, but rather ignorance, greed, and narcissistic mentality. Those qualities, unfortunately more and more frequently, can be found everywhere...even in paradise.

“I'm thankful we have reggae. I have so much pain in my heart , my mind is corrupt. But when I turn to reggae music, I am at peace . Jah will guide me forever.” ...oh, but then there is the blues!
