With the steady pace of services, the rest is lacking and our hierarchy is a deaf ear to our solicitations. […] Above all, we feel that we are no longer listened to and punished without knowing the motive. It becomes wearisome for everyone and dangerous for the future, "continued the letter signed by the" gendarmes of the security company of the hotel Matignon.
