Delegacion. He swore he would make it up to me if I did not say anything on the web about the theft. After numerous phone calls and three personal
visits within 18 months, he did NOTHING!
The other hotel that I know has had theft problems is the new one on the curve into GN. I only read about that hotel and the theft on another site (I
monitor 7 Baja bulletin boards).
In the case of the Cowboy hotel, the night watchman was distracted into the office by one of the thieves, while the theft occurred in the parking lot.
The watchman saw the car race out of his lot with our stuff and was able to obtain a description and lic. plate of the car. It turned out that the
main perp. was related to one of the municipality's officials, and nothing was done as far as punishment by the local cops.

To the room. Left at 5am. Noticed fishing boots and some tackle missing. Woke up the night "watchman" took while to get him to answer. He was
muttering profanities and said he didn't see anything. Only a couple hundred dollars worth of stuff, but just wanted to give a heads up.

Udo,
Very unfair to blame the owner for your loss. Hotels should only make reasonable security arrangements, they cannot protect you from all thefts.
Hotels can't and should not be responsible for losses due to your own carelessness. You are solely responsible for having the sense to not leave
valuables in your car!
