This by far was the worse night club experience that Ive had since Ive been going to clubs/parties. The night started off iffy when the guards wouldnt tell us where the line began, telling us to stand around the rope, assuring that wed get in. Bad idea, with a large amount of females, that was just a fight waiting to happen. Luckily we got in quickly, however, and we didnt pay (the only good part). Once inside, I had a better mindset (whelp, after we skip the 15-$18 drinks, way to overpriced). The club atmosphere was what is expected, minus the tiny dance floor that was surrounded by VIP booths, oh and the security guard. There were more security guards than people at the club (not really but there were so many guards). It made me feel more unsafe than safe because there was a sense that something was going to pop off. These guards are huge and tall, standing over you, looking around as if theyre looking for something. It feels like if you make the wrong move theyll jump on you and they probably will. Theyre rude, theyre in your face for any and every little thing. They wouldnt let my friends and I take our heels off so we could be more comfortable and enjoy ourselves. IT WAS HORRIBLE. They came all the way over to the bathroom just to tell us to put our shoes on. I usually grin and bare it but two of my friends and I felt so uncomfortable that we ended up leaving. If I could give a recommendation to this club I would tell them to loosen up on the security, its so unnecessary and it causes more tension than the feeling of safety. They need to lower the prices on their drinks and they should remove the VIP booths from around the dance floor. Again, WORSE EXPERIENCE EVER, I would never recommend this club to someone

I definitely hated this night club. It was a terrible experience, the best part was getting in for free, because it certainly wasnt worth paying for. I dont know if it was because of the holiday or what, but it was just awful. First, we got there early thinking the club would be crowded. When we got there the security kept telling us to stand anywhere. They didnt have a specific spot for a line. So when the club opened, I understood why they didnt have a real line, they randomly let people in, no matter when you got there or where you stood. It was very unorganized. Could have got there right when it opened and just walked up, hoping youd get in first. Second, there was extremely heavy security. Maybe it was b/c it was the holiday, however there was an extremely large amount. It honesty felt uncomfortable. They were standing over people, staring people down and just honestly over intimidating. I didnt even feel safe. Thirdly, the drinks were like 18$ for like a glass big enough to be a double shot. It was so tiny, and definitely not worth it. But definitely drink before hand if you cant stand your heels ladies. The security would not let us take our heels off, even for a second. They harassed us to put them back on, even when we were off the dance floor. We literally had to go into the bathroom to take them off. I can normally tolerate my heels. But those floors were so hard. This was the worst club I have ever been too. They pump this place up like its going to be the place to be. But it honestly wasnt. I didnt enjoy myself at all. We left early! Im glad it was free!

Beautiful venue and stellar sound system But it all goes downhill from here. The staff rewards you with a pretentious and arrogant welcome. If you leave feeling ripped off and insulted, its because you were. Drinks are not just overpriced, it is super ridiculously overpriced. Even a bottle of water - $10! I would probably be okay paying $20 for a drink, but when I do, I need to know why I am doing so. And when I cant answer that question, I hate you a bit more. Way too many VIP sections everywhere, with bouncers guarding EVERY perimeter of the section - Even in the middle of the dance floor, leaving a tiny space due to the big heavy bouncers taking up the dance floor and pushing you around. We attempted to settle next to the couches on the main floor (yes, there are VIP sections in the dance floor) and thought we were finally ok, then security stampedes over and pushes everyone. Apparently, theres an imaginary line to keep 20 ft. away from the VIP area. Youre better off dancing by the bar or in the bathroom! Sadly I didnt get to enjoy Lucianos brilliant beats. Needless to say...Story did not have a happy ending.

I went to go see Oliver Heldens here, as much as i LOVE this DJ the experience at this venue completely ruined my night. This was my first time actually getting inside the club before that, I had gone with my two friends, they let me in but completely profiled my friends and made up some excuse for them not being allowed in, even with us willing to pay $40 coverage! The night I had actually gone in to see Oliver i bought my ticket before hand so it was a quick entry but its always something with them. One of the bouncers was rude and told me and few other girls that we werent allowed to wear open toed flats in the club? Since when!? They were not even sandals, I eventually ended up going in but the whole night the crowd was pushing me all over the place there was no space to dance and I sat on one of the sofas not knowing it was "VIP" and one of the bouncers actually grabbed me by the arm and pulled me off the sofa. This club is terrible and too over rated, never going to recommend this place to anyone!!

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. I came here with my friend who was in a wheelchair and the staff could not have treated her more poorly. She was told that she was "in the way" on multiple occasions and forced to move around against her desires. She was then brought upstairs to an empty section of the club where she was left to feel isolated. Management offered no apologies or attempts at accommodations when I presented this as an issue, and even went as far as to put her on the spot by asking her if she was having a good time, after I had told them multiple times that she was not. The staff was rude, outside of a couple of bouncers who were nice enough to connect me with the supervisor, who then went on to treat us as second-rate customers. Its disconcerting that these people can work in the "service" industry, but not be able to manage situations like this one without making a person with a disability go from feeling bad-to-worse, and then not show any remorse.

Awful. They all acted like they didnt know where the line started and kept letting people who came last in first. There are thousands of guards... 2 at the entrance of VIP steps, 4 at the top of the steps, they are all over the dance floor and kept bumping into my friends and I. A male bodyguard even came into the womens bathroom 3 times when I was standing in there....thats not very law abiding...Then they were flashing lights at us telling us we couldnt take our shoes off which no one has ever said. Then they said we couldnt stand near the bar. A man told me I was standing too close to the empty VIP booths that outline the dance floor...that makes no sense since I was no where near it. And then when we were standing by the bathrooms, away from everyone and around the corner he came and found us and said to put our shoes on!? So over the top. And drinks are $18 for a small screwdriver. Stay very far away if you want to have a relaxed time and leave the parents at home.
