So, back on topic, how has the MOBKK gone downhill since Kurt left? I never liked the guy, but he ran a very tight, albeit classist/elitist, and exclusive ship, clearly delineating who was "in" and who was "out", and sometimes confusing those who were "in" with the "outs" and leading to some long, long and highly emotional grudges the likes which other hotels do not generate. I am not just talking about posters in this forum, some friends of mine who were guests there were confused for non-guests and it wasn't a pretty sight. To this day, a decade later they will still spit sideways and do the a two-handed one-fingered salute at the mention of the hotel.
What has happened since Kurt left? Any specifics?
