    Racism for speaking Spanish!!!

    Racism from restaurant waiters at all times for people who spoke Spanish. While we were sitting in the restaurant, we were ignore and never asked if we wanted something to drink. There were tourists from other nationalities next to us who were promptly attended to. We were speaking Spanish at that moment.This is the second time we’ve visited the hotel and this hadn’t happened to us before.
