The fire alarm in the building was going off and wasn't able to be heard on the second floor since it was shut off. It could have gone off accidentally and been a false alarm. The point is, if it was a real emergency, those on the second floor may not have been aware of the emergency. Every second counts in such an emergency, especially for senior citizens.

The firetruck comes for ALL emergencies was my point, NOT just for fires. It was first to respond in our neighborhood to a 911 call for illness.
It is a part of the EMS, first responders. I have never heard a fire alarm anywhere in any business in TV. I didn't know the Tuscany Spa had a second floor.
I think the SIMPLE answer is that the OP should call the fire department and tell them that she was told that the alarm system is NOT working on the second floor and that she was told it was turned off.
And then anyone who goes there tell the manager shame on you and see what he/she says.
