Not Allowed to Use Stairways - Safety Concern

The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. The one thing that was awful was that you were not allowed to take the stairs instead of the elevator and there was often a wait. This seems to be a serious safety issue. The stairwells need to be open for going up and down. This is totally unacceptable.

Hotel was clean. Service was good. Do not like the fact of paying for parking. To invite guest, then tell them we have no parking unless you pay for it! Nah dont like that.

Strangers at door sent by hotel?

I had an incident that happened during my stay where two servicemen came to my door about 3 PM even though I had the do not disturb on my door. They continued to knock until they woke me up and demanded to come in and fix a light. I was not sure who these men were so I did not open the door and called the service desk to find out. They told me they thought the service men were supposed to be there in the morning and apologized for them interrupting me. I did not like this explanation and feel that it was unsafe to have two strange men come to my door consistently knocking and knocking and waking me up and demanding to come into my room. This was unacceptable, but the hotel did not seem to take it seriously.
