Scariest and worst hotel experience ever! I was woken up at night by what sounded like someone jiggling my door handle trying to get in. Since my door was locked, I dismissed it as someone mistaking my room for theirs and went back to sleep. An hour later, I definitely heard the same noise again. This time I popped up out of bed and ran towards the door just in time to see it open and a man come into my room! As a solo female traveler, this is the worst thing that could happen! I yelled at the man louder than I have ever yelled before and he backed out and closed the door behind him. I sprinted to the door to lock it and threw my entire body weight against the door as I scanned for items to barricade the door with. I realized he had a key and probably worked for the hotel so I threw on some clothes quickly, grabbed just my passport and phone and ran down four flights of stairs, not sure if I should run out the lobby entrance or bother asking the hotel for help. The front desk clerk came out and I yelled to him that a man just came into my room. I was still trembling and obviously upset. He replied “oh yeah, that was housekeeping. It’s fine” as if that was supposed to be sufficient in making me feel better and safe. Not once did he apologize, ask if I was even ok or offer any further explanation. I said I didn’t feel safe and wanted to leave and he replied “it’s your choice” and walked away. I booked a new hotel right then and left! Do not stay here!!!!!
