In the paper it states that many guests were upset that it interupted their watching the NFL Playoff game... I'm sorry but if there were a hotel fire I think I'd hopefully be a bit more understanding and find a good sports bar instead!
Latest is that the fire was in a 4th Floor Laundry room. Sprinklers contained it to that floor however some water made it to the 3rd floor as well. Snacks and drinks are available for guests at a Conference Room at the Hilton until it is safe to return to the hotel.
About 600 guests were evacuated which is reported to be 85% of capacity. The fire has yet to be fully contained but no further damage to the property has been reported outside the 3rd and 4th floors.
