Mother's Ebola should spark push for cure, son says | Fox News
Mother's Ebola should spark push for cure, son says

ATLANTA – Missionary Nancy Writebol, one of two known Americans stricken with Ebola, wasn't looking to abandon her overseas work. But Jeremy Writebol believes his 59-year-old mother can yield a greater good from her impending return to the United States amid West Africa's worst-ever outbreak of the often-deadly virus.
The attention focused on her case "might help develop a cure and resources to help those who are suffering," the younger Writebol said. "I am sure hopeful for that."
A Liberian government official has confirmed that a medical evacuation team is scheduled to fly Nancy Writebol back to the United States early Tuesday. She will receive treatment at Atlanta's Emory University Hospital alongside one of her mission partners, Dr. Kent Brantly, who was admitted Saturday.
Ebola has no vaccine or antidote. However, both Brantly and Writebol were given an experimental treatment last week, according to international relief group Samaritan's Purse. Brantly is a physician with the group, and the group originally said that only Writebol got the treatment. Brantly also received a unit of blood from a 14-year-old boy, an Ebola survivor, who had been under his care, according to the organization.
Emory, where Brantly already is quarantined, boasts one of the nation's most sophisticated infectious disease units. Patients are sealed off from anyone not in protective gear. Lab tests are conducted inside the unit, ensuring that viruses don't leave the quarantined area. Family members see and communicate with patients through barriers.
A few weeks before she was diagnosed, Jeremy Writebol said, a doctor visited the Monrovia hospital where she worked and praised the decontamination procedures as the best he'd seen. Jeremy Writebol said she was "really pleased by knowing that" and never thought she would be infected, despite her proximity to the virus.
After talking with his father Sunday, the younger Writebol said it's clear his mother "is still suffering," but said the family remains optimistic.
"Her husband, David, told me Sunday her appetite has improved and she requested one of her favorite dishes - Liberian potato soup - and coffee," Bruce Johnson, president of SIM USA, said in a statement Monday.
But the Writebols, their pastor predicted, won't be away from the stricken land for any longer than they have to be.
"They knew that Liberia was a tough assignment," he said, comparing their vocation to the Bible's stories of leper colonies.
"Followers of Christ went into those colonies, knowing they would die," Munro said. "I certainly wouldn't judge them if they didn't go back, but I don't think this will deter them."

I love to support local businesses whenever I can and Maizie's is certainly one that has earned the support of many locals. Why? Because it's darned good! They always have new lunch & dinner specials, in addition to their varied menu, so making a decision was challenging! It happened to be a chilly & blustery day when we popped in here for lunch, so it wasn’t very crowded. Our waitress was very friendly and gave us ample time to look over the menu.I thoroughly enjoyed the Sonoran Chicken sandwich and devoured the best sweet potato fries I’ve every had! My friend opted for a soup & sandwich combo. She loved the Chicken Salad sandwich and said the soup (something with potatoes) hit the spot on such a cold day.Although we both cleaned our plates and should’ve left it at that, we just couldn’t NOT get the Chocolate Bomb. Ooey & gooey with a chewy brownie and 2 huge scoops of ice cream (vanilla & chocolate). This will take a lot of hours at the gym to negate!! But, it was delicious!I am anxious to go back for dinner and happy hour!

The day after my daughter's wedding we had family in town from Boston MA. One of them is the manager of the most sought after Sushi restaurant on the East Coast. Rated #1 for five years. Going to a chain was not going to cut it so my husband suggested Maizie's. He's been there before but I had not. Being we are previous restaurant owners ourselves we like to go to private owners when we can. We all sort of passed and shared many items. Our party all agreed that the single best item on the menu was the sweet potato fries. Hmmm...personally I don't think any type of fry should be the height of your menu. I had the white bean chili (beans turn red from the spices so don't expect them to actually be white). It was good but enough heat on it it was a tad hard to really taste anything else. The tortilla chips they serve with it are mediocore at best and are WAY too thick. I also shared a burger with my son. They do the toppings on the inside which is a good idea but it was so dry and overcooked and with the chibatta bun it was not able to be eaten for either of us. On to the excuse. We waited for way over an hour and a half. Four different people (including probably the owner, older gentleman) who came and appologized for the wait but said the kitchen was way understaffed and they were slammed. The interesting thing was by the time we got our food there wasn't hardly anyone left in the restaurant. They tried to make it right by giving us 20% off but by that time, as a previous owner I would have comped the whole bill.

Substitution of Rpb1 His1085 confers severe growth defects or lethality in vivo
A. Structural model of TL interaction with matched GTP in Pol II active site (PDB 2E2H)(). TL residues Rpb1 1070–1105 (magenta) are shown together with a GTP substrate (orange), template DNA (blue), downstream non-template DNA (green) and RNA (red). Sidechains for some residues in the TL (Rpb1 1081–1082,1084–1086) are also shown. His1085 is positioned to interact with the β-phosphate of the GTP. B. Phenotypes of Rpb1 His1085 substitutions. In the absence of functional Rpb1, cells cannot lose an RPB1 plasmid marked with URA3. rpb1-H1085A and rpb1-H1085F plasmids fail to confer viability to an rpb1Δ strain, rendering cells sensitive to the drug 5-FOA because they have been forced to maintain an RPB1-URA3 plasmid for Rpb1 function (bottom row). rpb1-H1085Y can provide the sole source of Rpb1 function, but exhibits a severe growth defect.
The RNA Polymerase II Trigger Loop Functions in Substrate Selection and is Directly Targeted by α-amanitin
Mol Cell. ;30(5):547-556.
Elongation Defects and Altered Substrate Selection by rpb1 H1085Y Pol II
A. H1085Y exhibits reduced elongation rate using NTP substrates. Run-off transcription of an oligonucleotide scaffold template generates a 61 nt RNA product. Representative experiments for WT and H1085Y Pol II are shown in the left and right panels, respectively. Average elongation rates for each NTP concentration were measured as the length of the transcribed region (51 nt) divided by the time of half-maximal accumulation of run-off product (61 nt). Average elongation rates were then plotted versus NTP concentration to infer maximum average elongation rate (see for details)(top right graph). Inferred maximum average elongation rates are shown in the bottom right graph with error bars representing the 95% confidence interval (See for details). B. H1085Y Pol II exhibits only modest defects for 2’-dNTP incorporation. WT and H1085Y Pol II ECs were formed on oligonucleotide scaffolds, containing 10-mer RNAs with templates specifying addition of different NTPs at position 11. Average incorporation rates for different template-specified 2’-dNTPs were measured as 1/t1/2 for maximal accumulation of 11-mer RNA. Incorporation rates were then plotted versus 2’-dNTP concentration and maximum incorporation rate for either 2’-dATP or 2’-dGTP was inferred (left panels). Maximum incorporation rates for WT Pol II and H1085Y are shown in the right panels with error bars representing the 95% confidence interval (See for details). C. H1085Y Pol II exhibits modest defects in GTP misincorporation. WT and H1085Y ECs were formed and labeled as in (B) with templates specifying incorporation of ATP at the position being measured, but were challenged with 1 mM GTP and misincorporation rate measured as the 1/t1/2 for maximal incorporation. Mean misincorporation rate from at least three experiments is represented in the bar graph (error bars represent +/− SD).
α-amanitin inhibition of WT Pol II is substrate selective, while H1085Y Pol II is mostly resistant to α-amanitin
A. α-amanitin inhibition of elongation by WT and H1085Y Pol II elongation complexes. Average elongation rate with NTP substrates for α-amanitin treated WT and H1085Y Pol II ECs determined exactly as in . RNA 10-mer containing ECs were formed as in but chased with equimolar NTPs at various concentrations in the presence of 40 µg/mL α-amanitin. Average elongation rates were then plotted versus NTP concentration and maximum average elongation rate inferred (). Maximum average elongation rates are shown with error bars representing the 95% confidence interval of the mean. Untreated values are from and shown for comparison. B. Incorporation rate for 2’-dNTPs in the presence of α-amanitin measured for WT and H1085Y Pol II. Elongation complexes formed exactly as in , but treated with various concentrations of 2’-dATP or 2’-dGTP as specified by appropriate DNA template in the presence of 40 µg/mL α-amanitin (). Maximum average incorporation rates for 2’-dATP or 2’-dGTP for WT Pol II and H1085Y are shown with error bars representing the 95% confidence interval of the mean. Untreated values are from and shown for comparison. C. α-amanitin inhibition of GTP misincorporation by WT and H1085Y Pol II elongation complexes. Experiment is the same as , save for the addition of 40 µg/mL α-amanitin in treated samples (). Untreated values are from and the graph represents mean misincorporation rate with error bars representing the standard deviation of the mean. D. α-amanitin inhibits addition of a single NTP by WT Pol II while H1085Y is mostly resistant. WT and H1085Y Pol II enzymes were prepared as in and aliquots were incubated with a titration of either ATP or GTP as specified by the DNA template, for 5 minutes. The values shown are the mean fold inhibition by 40 µg/mL α-amanitin from several experiments, as determined by concentration of substrate that gives half-maximal incorporation in the presence of 40 µg/mL α-amanitin divided by the concentration that gives half-maximal incorporation with no α-amanitin. Error bars represent +/− SD.
TL mutants exhibit complex phenotypes in vivo and have distinct effects on Pol II substrate selectivity and α-amanitin sensitivity in vitro
A. Schematic illustrating TL mutants isolated previously (; ; )(yellow filled circles) and those newly described in this work from genetic screens and site-directed mutagenesis (red or black filled circles). Numbers indicated amino acid position in S. cerevisiae Rpb1. Letters in unfilled circles indicate WT residues at those positions. Letters in filled circles indicated residue substitutions conferring mutant phenotypes in vivo. Black filled circles represent site-directed substitutions that are lethal. B. Phenotypes of selected TL mutants. TL mutants were transformed into a parent strain containing lys2-128∂, a marker allele for the Spt−phenotype (). 10-fold serial dilutions of TL mutant saturated liquid cultures were spotted onto several different media to illustrate growth differences of TL mutants compared to a WT strain. YP Dextrose plates illustrate growth differences on rich media with 2% Dextrose as carbon source. SC-Leu plates are minimal media lacking the amino acid leucine and illustrate differences in growth on minimal media and act as an untreated control for growth on SC-Leu in the presence of 20 µg/mL MPA. SC-Lys plates are minimal media lacking lysine, and assay the Spt- phenotype. A WT Pol II strain cannot grow on SC-Lys due to the lys2-128∂ allele, however mutants conferring the Spt− phenotype suppress this allele and allow growth. C. Altered elongation rate and sensitivity of NTP substrate usage to α-amanitin of selected TL mutants. Maximum elongation rates were measured as in and , with WT and H1085Y Pol II values shown for comparison. D. Altered 2’-dGTP substrate usage and α-amanitin sensitivity of selected TL mutants. Incorporation rates determined as in and , with WT and H1085Y Pol II values shown for comparison. E. Altered GTP misincorporation and sensitivity to α-amanitin of selected TL mutants. Misincorporation rates determined as in and , with WT and H1085Y Pol II values shown for comparison.
Resistance of H1085Y Pol II to α-amanitin and conservation of α-amanitin substrate-selective inhibition
A. Elongation rates at 500 µM NTPs for WT Pol II and TL mutant enzymes in the presence of increasing amounts of α-amanitin determined as in . Top panel plots elongation rates determined from production of run off product (61 nt) as in . F1086S Pol II was too slow in the presence of higher concentrations of α-amanitin to accurately quantify accumulation of 61 nt run off product, therefore elongation rates in the presence of α-amanitin were determined from accumulation of 23 nt and higher products for F1086S and WT Pol II for comparison (bottom panel). Note log scale on y-axes. B. α-amanitin inhibition of 2’-dATP usage by wild type Pol II is different than inhibition of NTP usage, while α-amanitin has no effect on H1085Y. Incorporation rate at 2 mM 2’-dATP in the presence of increasing amounts of α-amanitin determined as in . Values from three experiments are plotted. C. α-amanitin strongly inhibits elongation by Calf Thymus Pol II. Elongation assay and rate calculation in the absence and presence of 10 µg/mL α-amanitin exactly as in . For untreated samples, elongation over 48 nt was used to determine average elongation rate. For treated samples, elongation over 3 nt was used to determine average elongation rate. Inferred maximum elongation rates are shown with error bars representing the 95% confidence interval. D. α-amanitin weakly inhibits 2’- dNTP usage by Calf Thymus Pol II. Assay performed and rates determined exactly as in with α-amanitin treatment as in , except α-amanitin was at 10 µg/mL. For 2’-dGTP experiments, inferred maximal incorporation rate is shown with error bars representing the 95% confidence interval. For 2’-dATP experiments, incorporation rate for 2 mM 2’-dATP is shown as the mean of several experiments +/− standard deviation of the mean. E. α-amanitin inhibits single nucleotide addition by Calf Thymus Pol II. Experiment performed exactly as in . Values shown are the concentration of substrate that gives half-maximal incorporation over a 5-minute incubation. Lower values represent lower concentration of substrate required for a specified elongation rate, and thus a faster elongating enzyme. Values are the mean of at least three experiments +/− standard deviation of the mean. Note that y-axes are logarithmic scale.
Resistance of H1085Y Pol II to α-amanitin inhibition of TFIIS-mediated RNA cleavage
A. Purified WT and H1085Y stalled elongation complexes were treated with different amounts of TFIIS in the absence or presence of 40 µg/mL α-amanitin over a 20 minute time course followed by separation of RNA products by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. TFIIS-mediated RNA cleavage results in a shortening of transcript from the 3’-end, resulting in faster migrating RNA products. B. WT and H1085Y Pol II “backtracked” complexes were formed by incubation of polymerases with a nucleic acid scaffold containing a 13-mer RNA with two mismatches to the template at the 3’-end. These complexes were treated with TFIIS over a 20-minute time course in the absence or presence of 40 µg/mL α-amanitin. TFIIS-mediated RNA cleavage results in a shortening of transcript from the 3’-end.
Direct Interaction Between Rpb1 His1085 and α-amanitin and TL Capture May Underlie α-amanitin Inhibition of Transcription
A. Overall view of .-amanitin and the new TL conformation and position in relation to the Bridge helix (BH). A superpositioned EC structure (PDB 2E2H) showing DNA (magenta), RNA (red), non-template DNA (green) and nucleotide GTP (orange) highlights the position of the inhibitor and TL in relation to EC components. B. A 90° rotation shows the α-amanitin position in relation to the Bridge helix (BH) and its capture of the TL Rpb1 His1085. C.

A removal device adapted for the removal of difficult to remove threaded connecting devices, comprising:a body having a first end and a second end, the first end including an opening which extends toward the second end of the body; the opening is defined by an internal surface of the body and is sized to receive a threaded connecting device threaded in a first direction, wherein the internal surface is threaded in a second direction opposite the first direction in which the threaded connecting device is threaded; the opening continuously tapers from a first diameter at the first end to a second diameter as the opening extends toward the second end, wherein the first diameter is larger than the second diameter; and said second end of the body having a handle affixed thereto so that when the body is positioned over the threaded connecting device, rotation of the body causes said threading on the internal surface of the removal device to engage the threaded connecting device causing the threaded connecting device to rotate in a direction appropriate for the removal of the threaded connecting device. 14. The device according to claim 1, wherein the removal tool is a wrench.
With reference to FIGS. 1-3, a removal device 10 adapted for the removal of threaded connecting devices is disclosed. For the purposes of the present application, use of the term "threaded connecting device(s)" should be understood to refer to devices having a portion which must be rotated to facilitate attachment of the connecting device to an object. For example, the present removal device may be used with convention bolt and nut arrangements where internal threading on the nut engages external threading on the bolt. Alternately, the present removal device may be used with a threaded bolt having a head intended to be engaged by a socket, wrench, or other tool, to place the bolt within an internally threaded hole. Similarly, the present removal device could be used with a simple externally threaded stud positioned within an internally threaded hole. These examples should not be considered as limiting applications for the present removal device, but merely as exemplary of the many uses of the present device.
The removal device 10 includes a cylindrical body 12 having a first end 14 and a second end 16. The body 12 is hollow as it extends from the first end 14 to the second end 16 to permit studs and bolts to pass through the body 12 as the removal device 10 is used. The hollow center 18 also provides room for boring and threading tools used during the manufacture of the removal device 10.
The first end 14 includes a frustoconical opening 20 which extends toward the second end 16 of the body 12. The frustoconical opening 20 is defined by an internal surface 22 of the body 12 adjacent the first end 14 of the body 12. In the preferred embodiment, the opening 20 extends only a portion of the distance between the first end 14 and the second end 16 of the body 12. In fact, the opening 20 in the preferred embodiment extends only about one third of the distance between the first end 14 and the second end 16 of the body 12.
The opening 20 is sized to receive a threaded connecting device threaded in a first direction. The opening 20 continuously tapers from a first diameter 24 at the first end 14 to a second diameter 26 as it extends toward the second end 16, wherein the first diameter 24 is larger than the second diameter 26. The internal surface 22 of the body 12 defining the opening 20 has threads 28 formed in a second direction opposite to the first direction in which the threaded connecting device is threaded. That is, if the threaded connecting device has a right hand thread (regular thread), then the internal surface 22 of the body 12 will be threaded with a left hand thread (reverse thread). Similarly, if the threaded connecting device has a left hand thread (reverse thread), then the internal surface 22 of the body 12 will be threaded with a right hand thread (regular thread). It should be understood that while the threading 28 on the internal surface 22 must be in a direction opposite the threading direction of the threaded connecting device, the threading and taper may vary in accordance with the application of the removal device without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
The internal surface 22 defining the opening 20 may also be provided with cutting notches 30 extending along the internal surface 22 in a direction approximately perpendicular to the threading 28. While three cutting notches 30 are shown in FIG. 3, the removal device 10 may include as many cutting notches as desired depending upon the application of the removal device, without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Additional cutting notches may be possible where the application of the removal device permits. The cutting notches 30 help the threads to cut into the threaded connecting device to permit removal of the threaded connecting device in a manner that will be discussed below.
A projection 32 is secured to the second end 16 of the body 12. The projection 32 is sized and shaped for use with a socket permitting the removal device 10 to be rotated when it is placed over the threaded connecting device. As shown in FIG. 2, the projection 32 may be hexagonal shaped for use with hexagonal shaped sockets. Additionally, the second end 16 includes a square opening 34 designed for engagement with conventional square connecting elements used in socket wrenches, and other tools, where different attachments may be releasably secured to the wrench. While, the preferred embodiment is disclosed with a hexagonal shaped projection 32, a variety of projection shapes and sizes could be used without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Similarly, the second end 16 of the body 12 could be provided with a handle 36 facilitating rotation, without departing from the spirit of the present invention (See FIG. 4 removal device 100).
In use, the removal tool is place over a threaded connecting device with the frustoconical opening over the threaded connecting device. For example, the removal tool could be place over a worn nut secured to a bolt. The removal tool is then rotated in a direction causing the threading on the internal surface to engage the threaded connecting device by cutting into the outer surface thereof. Once the threaded connecting device is properly engaged, continued rotation of the removal device causes rotation of the threaded connecting device and ultimately removal of the threaded connecting device from the object to which it was attached. Removal of the threaded connecting device in this manner is achieved as a result of the fact that the internal surface of the body is threaded in a direction opposite to that of the threaded connecting device.
It should be understood that the body of the present removal device can be manufacture from a variety of metals depending upon the application for which the device is intended. The body could also be manufactured from plastic, or other materials, where the application of the removal device permits. In addition, the removal device can be made in a variety of shapes and sizes depending upon the use of the device.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of the removal device.
FIG. 2 is a top view of the removal device.
FIG. 3 is a bottom view of the removal device.
FIG. 4 is an alternate embodiment of the removal device with a handle secured thereto.
FIG. 5 is an isometric view of the removal device.
The invention relates to a device for the removal of threaded connecting devices. More particularly, the invention relates to an internally threaded removal device for the removal of threaded connecting devices, wherein the removal device is threaded in a direction opposite to the threading direction of the threaded connecting device.
Everyone is confronted at sometime with a nut that for some reason cannot be removed from the object to which it is secured, although the nut must be removed before the individual can continue with the project he or she is undertaking.
In most instances the individual must use tools not designed for the purpose of removing the nut. This often results in further damage to the object to which the nut is secured. For example, when the nut includes a hexagonal or square shaped head designed for a specific size socket which has been worn over time by use or abuse, the socket no longer properly fits over the head. As a result, the nut is not able to be removed in the appropriate manner. The individual must then somehow rotate the nut. This is often attempted with a wrench vice grips, or other tool, not designed for the job.
Attempts have been made to overcome this problem by providing tools which will engage and rotate the nut. However, these attempt have met with only limited success. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,161,090 to McLellan discloses a stud engaging wrench having a fluted gripping surface. The wrench is provide with a plurality of flutes designed to engage the threads of a stud. The helix of the flutes is designed to cooperate with the direction of the threads of the stud so as to be opposite thereto. The flutes directly engage the threads permitting removal of the stud when the wrench is rotated. The use of flutes as disclosed by McLellan is, however, limited in effectiveness due to the nature of the flutes themselves. Specifically, the flutes disclosed by McLellan are very much like the grooves in a drill bit. As such, the flutes are designed to engage textured surfaces, for example, the threaded outer surface of a stud, in much the same way a drill bit is most effective in boring through textured materials. Similarly, U.S. Pat. No. 3,996,819 to King discloses a socket wrench attachment for the removal of a screw or nut. The attachment includes a conical opening with a plurality of teeth positioned therein. As stated previously, the prior art devices for the removal of threaded connecting devices are limited in their effectiveness. Consequently, a need continues to exist for a device permitting the simple and effective removal of threaded connecting devices. The present invention provides such a device.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a removal device adapted for the removal of threaded connecting devices that are threaded in a first direction. The removal device includes a body having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end includes an opening extending toward the second end of the body. The opening is sized to receive a threaded connecting device threaded in a first direction, and the opening continuously tapers from a first diameter at the first end to a second diameter as the opening extends toward the second end, wherein the first diameter is larger than the second diameter. The opening is defined by an internal surface threaded in a direction opposite the threading of the threaded connecting device. The removal device further includes structure for rotating the body when it is positioned over the threaded connecting device, wherein rotation of the body causes the internal threading of the removal device to engage the threaded connecting device to cause the threaded connecting device to rotate in a direction appropriate for the removal of the threaded connecting device.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a removal device including at least one cutting notch on the internal surface, wherein the at least one cutting notch is substantially perpendicular to the threading on the internal surface defining the opening.
It is also an object of the present invention to provide a removal device wherein the structure for rotating includes a projection on the second end, the projection being sized and shaped for use with a socket.
It is also another object of the present invention to provide a removal device wherein the body is hollow as it extends from the first end to the second end.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a removal device wherein the opening is frustoconically shape.

One night in a room with two double beds. Small interior room, but not claustrophobic. Sliding glass door looked out on a stairway, which wasn't too attractive.No wi-fi in the guest rooms, but the hotel provides an ethernet cable. It took me a while to find the jack on our Notebook because we'd never needed it before. Then the clip on one end of the cable was broken, so it wouldn't stay connected. I called the front desk and another one brought was brought to our room. No desk chair; two "easy" chairs, but firm enough to be comfortable at the desk/table.No luggage rack - just a bench under the place where one hangs one's clothes (no closet). This is never a good arrangement. One has to duck under the clothes to take things out of one's suitcase.Free breakfast - okay. Newspapers: Wall Street Journal and USA Today.
Room Tip: Ask for a room with an exterior window.

Great suite with two double beds and sleeper sofa to accommodate six. Very clean and spacious. Nice pool area with ping pong and pool tables. This area could use more supervision from hotel staff, but was nice for entertaining our kids. This is an older hotel but looks like they have been working to update it. Staff was very friendly. We did not utilize the restaurant or breakfast area. Price was affordable. We would definitely stay again.

On our way home and decided to stay at Clarion,heard they were flagship of choice hotels.Room very clean, small for king aize bed. Refrigerator did not work. Breakfast lacking food that some cheaper Choice hotels offered. Coffee cold, no mixrowave and no one around to assist.Best part, found Village Inn Restaurant next door and enjoyed a great dinner!

22 helpful votes “Great Service, Average Rooms”
I live in Grand Junction and stayed here for 4 nights over Christmas with my wife's extended family. (20 people total) All I can say is the service was fantastic! My wife had requested 6 rooms that open to the interior atrium with the pool, pool tables, etc. (For those of you old enough this is a converted Holiday Inn "Holidome" property) We got those rooms, in addition the staff allowed us to use the breakfast area each evening for food brought in from home. They also rigged the pool table so the young kids could play for free. Plus, would come and adjust the lights in the area gladly upon request. In addition, never complained about the kids constantly going to the front desk to check out the ping pong paddles, balls, pool cues, etc.. Get the drift... GREAT staff.The rooms, however, are average for the price paid. We had a king "suite" which honestly in most hotels would just be called a "king with sofa" The only thing suite about it was the 'fridge and microwave. Small, cramped sink and toilet/shower area. Heat worked fine in our room.Common areas and rooms were kept very clean. The option to have a room opening via sliding door to the atrium is worth the room shortcomings in my opinion. Oh, the outdoor pool is quite large also with rooms that open up directly into the outdoor area. So... if you're looking for a family friendly place with good cleanliness and can put up with some shortcomings in the actual room this could be the place.
