Olivier Robin
My first experimenting on Joe's skills and business capabilities with a 113 room hotel has led my company to keep working with Joe's in total confidence and trust. Joe has been a good listener to my team's needs and has placed the appropriate collaborators on the project in order to meet our objectives. Working with Joe and his team has been really enjoyable.
