Marriott hotels are popular throughout Florida. With hotel rooms and suites, they serve families and business travelers. Located in larger cities or busy tourist areas, they provide quality accommodations and plenty of amenities for their guests. Pools, hot tubs, and fitness centers are common extras that you’ll find in Marriott hotel. Constant use of hotel amenities by guests, however, can require significant upkeep. While the amenities can enhance your stay, lack of upkeep in these areas can lead to injury. If you have been injured in an accident at a Marriott Hotel, contact Wolfson & Leon at (305) 285-1115 for a free consultation.
Hotels offer many special amenities for guests to use while they visit. Lounging out by the pool or an early morning workout can make your stay more enjoyable. We expect that these special perks are safe and properly maintained by hotel staff. When they aren’t, they can lead to serious injury.
Hotels should also take steps to ensure equipment in and around the pool is safe and in good working order. Automatic pool cleaners and drains can catch hair, jewelry, or bathing suit straps, potentially trapping a swimmer beneath the water. If a guest is underwater too long, they may experience severe brain injury or they may drown. Many hotel pools are not required to provide lifeguards. They should, however, clearly post the rules for using the pool. Failing to inform guests of the rules can lead to kids running around the pool, broken glass due to drinks in the pool area, or use of rafts or other floatation devices. Unsafe practices can cause injuries due to slips and falls, deep cuts, and even drowning.
