Allegro Papagayo Hotel
To Be Shut Down Today
Some 600 guests of the
Allegro Papagayo hotel
may be forced to find
other accommodations
today as the Ministerio
de Salud (Health
Ministry) is preparing
to shut down the hotel
following complaints of
sewage water being
dumped directly into the
nearby river.
According to Salud
minister, Marķa Luisa
Avila, the hotel has
been duly notified and
has had a chance to
clean up their act, but
nothing was done.
Salud officials had
originally set yesterday
(Monday) as the
deadline, but will be
out this morning to
ensure that the Salud
order is complied with.
Hotel guests, once
notified, will have 24
hours to vacate the
hotel.
Area residents have been
complaining of the foul
smell for some time and
an investigation led
official to the Allegro
hotel as the source.
