I really hope the pool doesn’t have annoying DJ music that will leak into dark universe.

I’m good as long as the overly loud poolside trivia is Universal Monsters themed

The lights reflected in the window add a cool visual effect to Apollo here.

That ceiling is worth the trip to get there. Do the lights twinkle?

Question @Brian G. Why didn’t they let any media out on the outdoor roof terrace during the preview? Every video I saw, people were just looking through the glass.

No EPA until the park officially opens.

Good eye.

It looks pretty nice to me. When I first saw photos I wasn’t wowed. I like it better now. That shower though should be much nicer. It does remind me of Gran Destino Tower in a way.

Nice walk through video. Basically touches all bases of the hotel. She's a bit bubbly, but the excitement works.
