Exclusive | Costa Rica resort denies ex-Yankee Brett Gardner's son died of carbon monoxide: 'Levels in the hotel room were non-existent'
Briefly

The Costa Rican resort where Brett Gardner's son tragically died has disputed claims of carbon monoxide poisoning, stating that initial reports were incorrect. They clarified that the detected high carbon monoxide levels were from a separate mechanical room not accessible to guests. Despite the denial of accusations, the resort has temporarily closed off the room for safety and awaits further investigations. In light of the incident, the resort has reduced its pricing significantly to attract bookings, reflecting a potentially impacted business environment following the tragedy.
The levels in the hotel room were non-existent and non-lethal. There was an error in this initial reporting.
The high levels of carbon monoxide were detected in a mechanical room that guests do not occupy, not the guest room itself.
Staffers closed the room out of an abundance of caution as they await for conclusive results to confirm the cause of this unfortunate death.
Reservations that had cost $1,330 per night are down to $998, and even the cheapest rooms are down from $790 to $593.
