Hotel Guest Sues Hospitality Entities Over Negligence Leading to Severe Injury
Rebecca H. Clark has filed a lawsuit against several hotel entities following a severe injury she sustained at a hotel in Florida. The complaint was lodged on December 9, 2024, in the Circuit Court of the Sixth Judicial Circuit in Pinellas County, Florida, naming Shaner Hotel Holdings Limited Partnership, Shaner Hotel Holdings, Inc., and Tierra Verde Hospitality LLC as defendants.
The case centers around an incident that occurred on February 5, 2024, when Clark was staying at The Residence Inn by Marriott St. Petersburg Tierra Verde. According to the complaint, Clark tripped over torn and raised carpet in her hotel room (#608), resulting in significant injuries including an impacted left femoral neck fracture of the left hip. The plaintiff alleges that the defendants failed to maintain safe conditions within the premises and neglected to warn her of the hazardous situation.
Clark accuses Shaner Hotel Holdings Limited Partnership of negligence for not ensuring that the carpets and flooring were kept in a safe condition. She asserts that they breached their duty by failing to maintain the premises safely and not providing adequate warnings about potential dangers. Similar allegations are made against Shaner Hotel Holdings, Inc., and Tierra Verde Hospitality LLC, who are also accused of neglecting their responsibilities to maintain safe conditions for guests.
