Inter Miami have changed their plans and will no longer stay this weekend at a Santa Monica hotel where workers recently went on strike, a union source told Reuters on Friday.
Inter Miami and star forward Lionel Messi were scheduled to check into the beachside Fairmont Miramar on Friday ahead of Sunday's match against LAFC but heeded calls from Unite Here Local 11 to stay away, said Maria Hernandez, a communications official for the union.
Housekeepers, cooks, bellmen and servers at the establishment joined thousands of hotel workers across the region on the picket lines, where they are demanding higher pay to meet rising housing costs. A Fairmont Miramar spokesperson declined to comment. An MLS spokesperson said the league does not monitor which hotels teams stay at when travelling.Argentina's World Cup-winning captain Messi, widely considered one of the greatest players of all time, has been a huge attraction since joining MLS in July.
