Pool access and family use
The hotel has a single rooftop outdoor heated lap pool (fourth floor) that is complimentary for registered hotel guests. Pool hours are listed differently on various sites; Marriott structured data lists 05:00–23:00, while some third-party listings show more limited hours.
Occasionally the rooftop hosts adults-only events (for example, a seasonal 'Splash After Dark' pool party described as adults-only). These are event-specific and do not represent a permanent age ban on the pool for registered guests.
