I rented Nicassio Fields for my daughter's baby shower. While the venue is lovely, I want to warn people NOT to use this venue and to express my complete disgust at the way owner's husband treated our guests.
We had the venue rented until 3:00 pm, at 2:45 the husband began pulling tablecloths off the tables, clearing tables while our guests were still seated which made everyone very uncomfortable.
He was throwing everything into the trash, with the exception center pieces. This included over 10 Lottery Tickets which were part of one of the door prizes. My daughter had to go into the trash to retrieve them, and when she asked why he threw them away, he stated "they were all scratched off already"! How was he to know if any of them were winners???
He also made a young girl cry when she accidently popped a balloon, not knowing that it had glitter inside.
He was exceptionally rude and unengaged during the entire event, turning on football games on the TV in the side room. The Steeler game that Sunday started at 4:25, so it is apparent to me that he wanted to get home to watch.
He also packed up all the food without notifying me, as I would have wanted to be there to observe to ensure it was done properly.
Folks renting this facility should be the top priority while they are there, and unfortunately, that wasn't the case. It appears to me that he was annoyed that he had to be there at all, and his main goal was to get the heck out of there to go home (or a bar) to watch the Steelers.
The rental time was from 12:00 to 3:00 pm, if 3:00 pm was the time that everything needed to be out of the room, that should have been clearly stated on the rental contract, which it was not. Also, they never stated that the final payment must be in CASH or CHECK and that you do not accept credit cards. read more
