and just so you know you can use the elevator's when the fire alarms are going off untill one of the smoke detectors infrount of the elevator ( lets say the smoke detector infrount of the elevator on the 2nd floor go off the elevator will go down to the 1st floor)

But good job on starting a rumor about somthing you know nothing about. Maybe you should be more mad that they put you on the schedule same time they where going to have there sprinkler system tested.

Can you substantiate what you just said? Because I did a google search for it and only came up with the OP's post--nothing about the sprinkler testing. How do you know for sure it was just the sprinklers being tested? Is there some record you looked at?

Despite the sarcasm of the last paragraph aimed at the OP (not appreciated), your information sounds like hearsay.

They have even started to put sprinkler systems in homes because they work so well here is a link to a video on youtube of a Fire Sprinkler Live Burn Demonstration by Las Vegas Fire Department

And my last post are just me saying what i have heard and the last part was just me trying to be funny there was no sarcasm intended but i can see how you think that...But the fact is you can hurt a place like this by starting rumors when i'm sure everything was taken care of... what i heard can be a rumor to, that is why i put from what i heard. If you really want to know what happened there you should call and ask them or the thread will just keep going on...

When people drop from the blue into a discussion, I wonder what blue?


I also have read this whole thread and didn't see anyone trying to be holier than thou.


All I can see is that people are trying to get to the truth of the situation.

Or protesting too much. I am a card carrying mom and I know "protesting too much.".

Speaking of "putting fires out," it seems to me that you're working very hard at trying to discredit the OP.

To just state, "....I'm sure everything was taken care of.".....without any substantiation, makes me think the OP was dead on in her observation of her experience.

Hopefully, the business is doing everything possible to correct the situation.

Just so you know, you should never take the elevator if there is even a chance of a fire.

I agree. Elevators are iffy even under normal circumstances. Who's to say they would really return to the first floor if the smoke alarm above them were beeping?

Every hotel I've ever been in says not to take the elevator if a fire alarm is going off.

I agree.

They definitely have their ups and downs.

FYI, my wife was there that same day and the same time having a pedicure on the 2nd floor. She has a broken foot and had to use the elevator. She sat right next to the elevator and the alarm the OP was talking about was the elevator alarm and not the fire alarm. My wife said the elevator alarm was very loud but it was for the elevator. The person who was working on her as well as the owner (manager?) told her the alarm on the elevator goes off periodically and when it does it trips an automatic call to the The Villages Public Safety and after they check it out they have to contact the elevator company to shut off the alarm. There was no fire alarm tripped. She talked with them because when the elevator alarm tripped and the Public Safety dept. showed up they wanted everyone out of the building. But when they found out my wife had a broken foot and had to use the elevator to leave, rather than carry her down the stairs they felt it wasn't that urgent because it was just the elevator alarm. You can all make your own decisions on this info but I would talk to Tuscony Health Spa first before yelling FIRE

And if anyone questions why would a women with a broken foot have a pedicure then you will have to ask my wife. Her toes on both feet were exposed so she wanted them done. I just live with her, I don't understand her

Well, I am very glad she got out of there safely and with colorful toes to boot (pun intended)

LOL about your wife wanting a pedicure even though her foot is broken. I am getting a pedicure and massage on Monday at Tuscany. They do a great job. This is my treat to myself while visiting TV. Hope the elevator alarm stays quiet during my visit.
