Mooch has worn out her welcome in Beijing
A “well-placed” staffer at the Westin Beijing Chaoyang hotel told the Daily Mail that the Obama women have inconvenienced “pretty much everyone” while the first lady’s mother, Marian Robinson, has been “barking at the staff” since she arrived.
“We can’t wait for this to be over, to tell you the truth,” the staffer said. “We entertain many important people here, but this has been, I think, very different.”
Now the hotel workers are about “fed up.”
The Daily Mail has more details:
Government security forces from both China and the U.S. started Thursday to screen everyone who entered the building, including paying guests, setting up checkpoints that resemble those at airline concourse entrances.
The Secret Service’s monopoly on the hotel’s highest floors has meant the Westin had to boot guests with previous reservations out of their executive-level rooms.
I read somewhere that they displaced other guests to accommodate Mooch and her entourage. You have to wonder when hotels are going to start refusing to do that.Secret Service agents are also monopolizing hotel elevators long before the Obamas need them, added the staffer, who identified himself as a member of the concierge staff and spoke English during a phone call on Friday.The Westin Beijing Chaoyang hotel’s website describes the 3,400-square-foot suite Michelle Obama and her family are staying in as an “oasis of comfort.” It includes a “private steam room, corner sofas with silk pillows” and in-room dining for six. They also reportedly have a 24-hour butler at their disposal.

First Lady Michelle Obama Flying on Wednesday to Rome for tête-à-tête dinner party? http://www.hln.be/hln/nl/957/Binnenland/article/detail/1826624/2014/03/23/Michelle-Obama-komt-woensdag-mee-naar-Belgie.dhtml Google Translate.
Perhaps she will help the Pope look for his 'invisible' baptismal certificate?
Whoa... we have really gone off topic here. (I understand the reason, but it's kind of humorous that) a blog called "Israel Matzav" is concerned with angry Chinese hotel clerks and the wife of the President of another country.
Now, I think the whole trip to China was wrong, but what would you do if you were the President and your wife insisted she needed a vacation in China at the taxpayer's expense? It ain't easy to say no to Michelle...
