Goofy Fire Situation

Last Friday I had a fire in one of my condos.  10 out of the 12 units are inhabitable.  I was lucky enough to be one of the two that are inhabitable because I had a fire proof door. I guess everybody else had wood doors.  The red cross put my renter in a hotel for the weekend.  The association is not letting anybody in the condo.  They said the company who they hired to clean up everything will determine when my renter can go it, which they are not telling anybody anything.  Since the red cross is done paying for his hotel who is responible?  I would think the renters insurnace would be respoinble, right?   So should I take care of the hotel bill and then seek reimbursement from the person who started the fires insurance compnay?  Or do I tell my renter, "Sorry you should have had renters insurance!"
