The way they rip the bad reviews is very interesting.

Some people claim the beach is great, others claim it is all rocks and deep with violent waves.

How can 17 kids be in ONE ROOM an not set an alarm to staff? It is also mentioned in one of the reviews that the food is catered to 'Missionaries'. Like Silsby?

When was this hotel built or last bought? We need to cross reference that with Clinton Foundation Money spent in Haiti. I think this could be a good lead.

Our team of 17 stayed here overnight on our way from Gonaives to Port-au-Prince. After a week out working in the hot, dry country side of Haiti, the Kaliko Beach Club was a great place to recuperate before heading to the airport and a long day of travel.

Doesn't say anything about them being kids if this is the review you are referring to by user "DavidFromKlein".

I am referring to the kids whom were rescued, whatever the number was.

Gotcha. the article linked by OP says:

"We found 33 girls, 20 of them minors, locked up in one room,” said Danton Léger, the Port-au-Prince government commissioner, adding that in another room, 12 traffickers, including eight men were detained. In the room occupied by the traffickers, the police seized bags of drugs, alcohol, a certain amount of money in Gourdes and US dollars, a computer whose hard disk contains videos of child pornography...

The wording is slightly ambiguous as to whether it was 20 or 33 locked up in one room, but I think he meant all 33.

Silsby was reportedly caught with 33 also...

Though you raise a couple of good points that should be archived (particularly about 17 children if they mean in one hotel room),

"We need to cross reference that with Clinton Foundation Money spent in Haiti. I think this could be a good lead."

I think this would get us a lot farther than some shifty TripAdvisor reviews.
