I went here for my friend's birthday in June. They told us that if we wanted to get in on the guestlist that we had to be there by 10. So we got there by 10 and NO ONE was there except for us so the place was freezing and so boring. There are 2 rooms, each with their own bar. One is a room with more rock music and one is more hip hop music.

The place started filling up around 12 and by then my feet were already killing in my heels! My friends had the exact same problem but there is absolutely no where to sit in the entire place. In the washroom there are 2 chairs, which you can never get to sit on because other girls with aching feet are constantly hogging them. So me and my friends decided to put down paper towels in the washroom and sit on the floor (I know..ew...but we were desperate!). Then someone who worked there came in and said "NO SITTING ON THE FLOOR!" Bah! So we decided to go the bar and get some drinks. We asked for 6 amaretto sours (about 8 bucks each i think) and they tasted disgusting. We went back to the bar and the bartender was like...oh i forgot the sour mix isn't working so i guess i just gave you amaretto and water!! Hmm that's why it was so disgusting! Luckily she gave us some more drinks (i think cranberry and amaretto) no problem and they were so yummy! After finishing our drinks we continued our hunt for somewhere to sit (it was about 1 am at this point). There was this ramp off the dance floor that I think led to a smoking area outside and no one was really going on the ramp so my friends and I decided to sit at the top of the ramp...apparently that's not allowed either because we got yelled at again! So we gave up and just took off our shoes and tried not to get trampled on the gross, drink-covered floor.

Overall, we ended up still having fun because all our friends were there and that's all you need to have fun! But....please just let us sit down!!!
