Kristin

Disliked: Staff & service
Room was clean, breakfast stated 6 am-9am but it was 630-930am. The real issue was that we were trapped in an elevator for 30 +minutes and the fire department had to be called to get us ok. The issue was that NOT ONE SINGLE STAFF MEMBER checked on us. There was no follow up to make sure we were ok, not a courtesy call or anything. I understand to some it was only 30 + minutes but it was also with my 70 year old mother. Checking on us would have definitely gone a long way. Hopefully no one else has this experience.
