Very poor communication

If anyone considers to book this venue, be warned of extra charges, if there is a large capacity, we had to pay extra $30k for carpet because they didn’t want to mess with their floor. That’s in addition to the 40k for the venue. Also the Union labor fees will run you almost additional 80-100k after scrambling to get a TPA permit, (this is NEEDED, or you cannot have your event. In the process of handling the issue, I was doomed, because they said I breached with the labor payment.
