Lawsuit Against Rodeway Inn Hotel Serves as Reminder to Hotel Industry of Importance of Premises Safety
September 9, 2021 via JD Supra

A newly-filed negligent security lawsuit in Miami-Dade County — NN and Ma vs. O.J.A. Development Company, Supra Security, Inc. and Travon Smith – raises a series of liability-related issues amidst a backdrop of especially egregious facts. In the lawsuit, Plaintiffs allege that they were brutally attacked while staying as guests at the Rodeway Inn Hotel in Coral Gables, Miami-Dade County. Specifically, according to the Complaint, M.A., a hotel guest, was in his hotel room when he heard a knock at the door and opened it, assuming it was his wife, N.N., who had recently left to get towels. Instead, it was a homeless assailant who punched him in the face, forced his way into the room and began strangling him. While the assailant continued to strangle M.A., N.N. returned to the room. The assailant then chased N.N. into the hallway, where he brutally beat and strangled her.
