If/when you get stuck in an elevator, as happened to me on 4 occasions in college, you can usually pry the inner door(s) open without much trouble. The outer doors are designed to stay locked shut unless the automated system opens them, OR you manually release the restrictor hook. You can usually reach one of the hooks either the one for the doors below where you stopped or the one above. Above is better because it eliminates the possibility of falling back down the elevator shaft after climbing out. If you have to go out the lower one, just make sure you don't fall backwards after climbing out. Or at the very least getting both doors open will get better airflow in there.
I was shown this by an elevator serviceman and have had to open a couple as a first responder. Several different models, the basic mechanism is very similar in each.
The article the images above are from is below.

I have a question: If we check in a resort and have the situation like the op posted. The II is not available especially during the weekend, can we find a hotel to stay and expect the II will pay for the bill of the weekend? It surly looks like I am not going to clean the room like the op did. She is marvelous! But I couldn't.

I send them a bill for your cleaning services...
Either an hourly rate or pro-rated by point-value for your stay.

Easier said than done. You can send a bill but the question is will someone honor it and will you be paid!
