Does the shit box Rio have building cooling towers for air conditioning in common areas?
Pitiful reporting. Quick google, cut and paste - submit article
I know poor folk use swamp coolers in the desert. It's Caesars and it's old and maintenance is a frill CZR can't indulge - so it feels like we're in the right range.
As someone who is about to check in tomorrow, this disturbs me... but not for the reason you think.
It disturbs me because this occurred in the Ipanema Tower, where I'll be saying.
But not for the reasons you think.
It disturbs me because this might cause room closures and prevent me from staying in the area of the Ipanema which I strongly prefer.
I'm not afraid of catching Legionnaire's. Two people out of the many thousands there since March is not an outbreak. I still like those odds.
Still, LOL @ the Rio.
The maintenance of this place is total shit.
Stayed in the Ipanema tower last Sunday and Monday night. They free "upgraded" me to one of those large suites at the very end of the hall. Room 1954 to be exact.
Been sick since Wednesday tho I think/hope it's just food poisoning. Truly hope that's not near your favorite area Druff!
The Southern Nevada Health District is investigating two cases of Legionnaires’ disease reported in guests who stayed separately at the Rio hotel-casino in March and April.
The hotel is assisting in the investigation and taking steps to provide information to past and current guests of the property.
The Rio released a statement Friday afternoon.
“Test results on the water at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino indicated the presence of the legionella bacteria. The company is working closely with the Southern Nevada Health District and taking aggressive remediation actions to ensure the safety of Rio's water. Out of an abundance of caution, we are relocating guests from rooms where remediation actions are being undertaken.”
