Surmava’s plane was delayed so she arrived later at the hotel. “I just got to the Hard Rock and there’s no one here to help me with my bags,” she shared in her Instagram story. “So I paid this bellboy to carry my bags up with me. And it being Colin!” Macy-O’Toole is seen walking next to Surmava, carrying her luggage. She also shared the sweet swag bag she received from Schwager’s company, Stars Marketing Group. “Like, they thought of everything!” she exclaimed as she dug through the box. “Happy Birthday Gaby!”

Once Surmava got settled, she shared videos partying with Cohen inside the lively hotel. Loud music can be heard pumping in the background.

The drinks were flowing and Cohen captured videos of the crew, holding two cocktails each. “Why are we all double fisting?” she said in the video. Despite the hard-partying, Surmava was in the gym promptly the next morning.
