Breathe deeply as the air quality is definitely better here! Low VOC materials were used when installing the carpeting and painting the walls. Environmentally friendly cleaning products are used throughout the hotel with aluminum grates at all entrances to minimize the dust that enters the facility. Chemical free fertilizer nourishes native plants in the gardens and these particular plant selections reduce the need for excessive irrigation. Water is also preserved through use of low flush toilets and low flow showerheads. Even the koi pond is maintained with water recycled from the hotel.
