I just got the following notice from Interval International:

Dear Member and Guest

We are writing to notify you that the resort you are confirmed into has advised Interval that effective October 1, 2018 to January 5, 2019, construction will take place on the eleventh through fourteenth floors of the property.

Related conditions, including noise, dust, odors and crew on-site should be expected.

If you have any questions, please contact the resort directly.

We hope that you enjoy your stay.

Thank you.

Wow -- they have been doing construction on that place all year. Stayed there the first time with that advisory, no problem. The next time, I became aware of noise that was so loud I couldn't imagine what they were doing. I took the elevator down, one floor at a time until it opened to obvious construction zone. My curiosity got the better of me -- so I got out and looked around. There was a person using a jack hammer to remove bathroom tile. This was several floors down and rooms away from my unit. It was bad enough that I had to make plans to stay away all day.

The Shell units were recently renovated (that includes the jack hammering for bathroom reno you heard). Club Donatello, which is it's own timeshare on floors 11 to 14, is now apparently doing their renovation. The lobby renovation is also already complete. If The Donatello Club doesn't do significant renovation to the bathrooms it will probably be much quieter.
