wish i could give 0 stars. extremely bad night club. never been to a worse place. the people managing the place are absolutely pathetic.
i got injured; a fellow dancer in heels stepped on the lateral ligament in my ankle, which disabled me from standing. the guard inside told me that he'd like to take me to a better place to recover. he took me outside the club where i sat on the stairs. another guard comes to me and told me to move asap because that's no place to sit. when i told him about how i was surprised that he was asking me to move around instead of offering help, which offended him, and he proceeded to throw me out of the club. i couldn't believe what happened because i'm this petite sized girl who isn't even drunk (some very kind strangers from inside came out to help me and confirmed that what i was stating was absolutely fair <yes good souls exist> ), but maybe the bouncer hadn't felt "powerful" in a while, and needed to feel it. maybe something bad happened in his family and he needed to feel control? i wouldn't know. i'm typing this at 2 am hahah...with a painful ankle; but i'll go rest now. what happened was clearly terrible, but multiple people told me that there's nothing i can do about it. it's their turf, their rules. well, i can do this! tell the world that they aren't decent hosts. i mean, go ahead, try the place; you might have fun! but if some unforeseen accident occurs, help is the last thing you can expect.
bad experience. even this little city has better options :)
