Apparently, this fountain was very controversial at one time. Some people considered it gaudy and compared it to decorations on merry-go-rounds. When it was refurbished at one point, people didn't like the new color scheme. They said it gave them "flu-like symptoms when looked upon."

I think this is the largest room we have ever had anywhere. There is also a twin bed in the room so it can accommodate 3 people.
