Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, testified today during the House impeachment inquiry that there was “quid pro quo,” and Yelp reviewers are telling people to just say “no” to his hotels.

Some Yelp reviewers want people to change where they stay because of Sondland’s involvement in the Trump administration.

The moneyed hotelier’s name has been getting publicly thrashed by the left since a whistleblower’s complaint stated Sondland had advised Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky about how to handle President Trump’s demands. Sondland originally said there was no “quid pro quo,” but his statements today before the House panel reversed that stance.

Sondland, whose net worth reportedly sits just above $60 million, made his fortune through his Portland, Ore.-based company Provenance Hotels. The luxury-hotel business has six hotels in the City of Roses, in addition to 14 other properties in five other states, including California, Minnesota and Massachusetts.
