At the far end of the pool, 3 archways stand, supported by 2 columns. A deck wraps around the pool at the far end and left side. A railed balcony sits above the deck. At left, a woman walks along the deck and towards the camera. Arched beams line the pool's ceiling. Lining the right side of the pool are arched windows that look out to the hotel's exterior.
