And even though he lost his temper, it was all forgotten a few minutes later.

But I know full well that if Arroyo proposes any kind of improvement, it is because it is needed and good for the hotel. But neither he nor his network of suppliers have ever been suspected of such conduct. And that level of trust is priceless. \u201cWe know each other very well. I know at a glance if it is the right time to raise any particular issue. And what I most appreciate about Luis, which he has in common with all the previous generations, is the clarity and speed of his decision-making, as well as his closeness, approachability and trust.
