ʻO ka pāʻina hauʻoli-'ākau o ka hale hou-i weheʻia, ma kahi o Marmara Park Avenue, kahi nui o nā pōhaku maʻemaʻe keʻokeʻo. Ke hāʻawi nei kēia'ati i kahi manaʻo kūkino maoli no aʻu,ʻoiai ke kīʻaha lima a me ke kila i loko o ka pā hale a me nāʻoihana'ē aʻe e hoʻolimalimaʻia ma waena o nā mokuʻelima.

Ua'ōleloʻo Savas i hoʻokahi kumu eʻoluʻolu aiʻoe ma hope o ka hanaʻana i nā hammam kahikoʻo ka hoʻomaʻemaʻeʻana o ka wela i kou kino o nā toxins.
