If we went down our hall, past the elevators and walked up the stairs, we were right at a doorway that is half way between the bus stops and front door, so we didn't have to walk all the way up to the lobby, out the front door, and then all the way down to the bus stops.

Plus all the restaurans are on that first floor. We were only like three doors down from the health club, where the door is that leads directly out to the pool and hot tub. We had a pool view room on the first floor on the Giraffe Trail, that we loved.
