Actually, that's not what you said.

Wanting assurance that the problem is being addressed is different from insisting on being kept apprised of how it is being addressed.

I did read your post. You were correctly disputing my erroneous assertion that you don't have a right to see the fire alarm testing log books. In reply, I simply tried to make the point that your right to inspect the logs, etc. is based on laws which specifically give you that right. Absent any such laws, you (we) have no right to be kept apprised of the mold remediation protocol implemented by the hotel. You're right; I'm wrong. I used a bad example. I believe that my point is still valid, though, on the issue of insisting in being kept apprised of exactly what the hotel is doing about the mold. Sorry for my error.
