Locked in the bathroom...

This was literally the worst experience ive ever had. Please do not stay here. I got locked in the bathroom for several hours (didnt bring my phone in the bathroom) and had to literally break my way out of there using the bar off the towel rack. Then after i checked out early (obviously) they wouldnt refund the stay, just for the days i didnt stay. I literally could've still been in there rotting for days. Now the refund isnt even posting. (could be the bank, but still). They couldve cared less about what happened to me. That was a traumatizing experience.
