Fire Exits:

For your personal safety, please note where each exit is located upon arrival. All floors/rooms are equipped with visual diagrams/locations of various fire exits, which are located at the end of each hallway. Each exit is labeled with a raised print and Braille sign. The two stairways are located on the east and west end of each hotel floor. The emergency exit on the east end of the hallways (higher room numbers) leads onto a small balcony. The staircase entrance is to the right of the exit door. Both stairways exit outside the buildings on the main grounds. There are two (2) fire extinguishers located in each hallway. They are in white metal cabinets. All cabinets are located on the north side (odd room numbers side) of the hallways. They are mounted on the wall to the right side of the 07 and 25 room entrances on each floor. The cabinet door handle is 40 inches above the floor on the right side of the cabinet opening towards the left. There are two (2) fire alarm manual pull stations, which are red in color, with the center point of the device mounted 52 inches above the carpeted floor; one (1) at each end of the hallway to the right of the stairway exit door.

The hotel’s banquet rooms are located on the main level floor. The fire exits are located at each end and in the middle of the hallway that runs between the small meeting room entrances and hotel offices on the south side of the building, as well as at the back of the main ballroom on the east side of the building and in front of the restaurant on the west side of the building. All exits are marked with illuminated green exit signs throughout the hotel. Each exit is also labeled with a raised print and Braille sign.

Alarm/Evacuation Procedures:

The hotel’s fire alarm makes a high-pitched sound. The elevators will not be in working order once the alarm is activated. If the alarm is activated, we recommend that you stay in your guestroom or in the meeting room. The hotel staff will investigate right away the cause of the fire alarm. The hotel staff will determine if it is a false alarm or if evacuation is necessary and will advise hotel guests accordingly through the PA system.

If evacuation is necessary, every attempt will be made for a member of the staff to assist you in exiting the hotel. All hotel guests with visual impairments will be noted by the front desk, and special assistance would immediately be deployed to their hotel room or meeting rooms.

If you detect fire or smoke, notify the operator by dialing “0”, or pull the nearest fire alarm manual pull station.

If you must leave the room, feel the door to see if it is hot. If it is not hot, open the door slightly to look and listen to determine if you can make it to the stairways. Stay low to the floor and take your room key.

Do not use the elevator. Proceed to the nearest stairway and exit on the ground floor.

Then proceed to the meeting area in the front of the hotel.

If unable to exit your room because of fire or smoke: (a) close the door and seal it with a wet towel, (b) notify the operator by dialing “0”, and (c) stay near the window until help arrives but do not open the window.

The hotel asks guests to assemble in front of the hotel in the parking lot facing the main entrance.

There will be members of the staff at this location to account for all guests and to inform the guests when it is safe to re-enter the hotel.
