Rules, safety and guest responsibilities
The rooftop pool follows standard hotel pool rules: reserved for registered guests, no pets allowed, and cabanas/loungers are first-come, first-served with guests required to be present to hold seats. The hotel enforces these rules and may remove guests who violate them.
Because there is no lifeguard, adults are responsible for supervising children. The hotel’s family-friendly policy means children of all ages are welcome at the property, but adult supervision rules still apply at the pool.
- Guests must be registered with the hotel to use the pool (unless they have an approved day pass)
- No pets in the pool area
- No lifeguard — swim at your own risk; supervise children

| Holding chairs without being present | Hotel may reassign seating |
| Pets in pool area | Access denied; pets not permitted |
| Unsafe behavior | Guest may be asked to leave pool area |
