Selina Hotels in Buenos Aires

WARNING TO TRAVELERS! ROBBERIES IN THE DORMS! Two days ago, I was staying in a shared dorm when I noticed that my lock was gone, the metal where the lock had been was bent, and all of the money was gone. I also checked the other lockers in the room and saw that the two other lockers occupied with possessions had been attempted to be robbed and had the metal bent and cut marks on the locks, but luckily, the thief/thieves weren’t able to break into them. Immediately after realizing what happened, I went into the elevator to go downstairs to talk to the front desk. While in the elevator there were two maids, and I frantically told them that someone robbed me, and they responded that they were on the other side of the building which I found as odd as I never assumed it was them or accused them. Everyone staying in our room this week has been robbed, has been attempted to be robbed, or has left the room because they’ve been so scared after this incident. After talking to the front desk and the others staying in my room, I found out that 3 people in the same room had been robbed in the past few weeks and someone else in another room (these are just the people that we know). Each of us was robbed between 2 pm – 5 pm, the locks all had been cut off, and the cleaning staff had been in our rooms cleaning during the time the robberies occurred. Also, we were told by staff that this is the only hall that currently doesn’t have a working security camera. All of us who have been robbed have been told that Selina couldn’t be held responsible even though it was clear that there was a pattern of robberies. Even one of the victims from a few weeks ago knew that the cleaning staff and a manager had been the only people in the room (via CCTV footage), and none of this was ever investigated by the administration.
