Title: The Spiritual Teachings of Ralph Waldo Emerson; Author: Richard Geldard; Review: Looking for the "complete works" of Emerson, I stumbled across this title at Amazon and read the reviews. I decided it would be a good guide to the reading of Emerson himself, and it was a good choice for that purpose. In addition to ten essays on some of Emerson's key writings, the Geldard book has an excellent glossary of terms, a short and intriguing bibliography (for further exploration), and a helpful index. I will be using it as a companion book to "The Essential Writings," which I bought at the same time.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: They Were Just People: Stories of Rescue in Poland During the Holocaust; Author: Visit Amazon's Bill Tammeus Page; Review: These remarkable stories preserve the artless voices of the people interviewed--both survivors and rescuers--sharing their darkest memories. Detailed accounts of horrifying things that happened to people simply going about their lives are reported with directness and honesty. They could be your neighbors. They could be you. And that's a lot to think about. Extensive notes, bibliography, and Reader's Guide make this an exceptionally useful book for personal reflection or group discussion.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Teaching in the Art Museum: Interpretation as Experience; Author: Visit Amazon's Rika Burnham Page; Review: In a series of essays, the authors cover issues of education and visitor experience in the world of art museums. Educational strategies and controversies, views of volunteer vs. professional educators, and specific techniques for engaging the museum visitor are discussed, with many anecdotes and examples. A must-read for art museum educators and administrators.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Calories Don't Count; Author: Herman Taller; Review: As a veteran low-carb dietary adherent, I was curious about the principles in Herman Taller's early work on this subject. As part of diet history, it's interesting, and I'm happy to have the book in my low-carb library. However, much new science has been applied to the investigation of low-carbohydrate nutrition in the years since, so I would not recommend it as a guiding text.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Running Counterclockwise; Author: Visit Amazon's Alarie Tennille Page; Review: Running Counterclockwise adds impressively to the published collections of poet Alarie Tennille that began with her chapbook Spiraling Out of Control. With deceptive simplicity, she illuminates memories and places, personalities and experiences that will stick in your mind as much as they did in hers. As one of her poems says, "Never mind that true genius/is making it look easy." Perhaps you've heard of synesthesia--using one sense to describe another. Alarie invites us to a wine tasting: "...sunset on the Chesapeake/Bay, Chagall blue, Mozart's laugh,/the ancient and eternal." In a poem titled Togetherness, she puts an ironic spin on game night in her childhood home: "...We/could never stop playing/at being a happy family." Describing a notorious neighbor, she hints at her own gift as a poet: "Here she lived out her days/as we all do, somewhere/between doubt and wonder." Alarie looks at works of art, the morning news, and her own life in a way that invites is to see things her way--that is, with clarity, good humor, and even a cat's perspective: "...We laugh at her/but isn't that what we all do?/Hurling ourselves at happiness/as though it could be pinned." You'll be glad to own this book.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Woodstock: A Story of Middle Americans; Author: Bill Tammeus; Review: Middle America, as described by Bill Tammeus in his memoir of life in Woodstock, Illinois, where he started out in life, is more a state of mind than a geographical location. That's why others of his generation, but not of his location, can especially appreciate his affectionate but unflinching views of life as it was in those days. What the boys were getting up to in their "secret hideouts" was mostly a mystery to me as a girl back then. But I recognized many other elements of his story, from the pleasures of membership (scouts, youth group, school clubs), to "innocent" expressions of racism, to personal loss in the Vietnam War, as we young people of that era struggled to learn the meaning of both responsibility and freedom. Politics, Sports, Institutional Failure, Romance, and Explaining Evil are just a handful of the topics included in this insightful and mostly cheerful account of the way we (perhaps) were--and the way we (perhaps) can be-- "better people" as touted by the eight points of the committee to declare Woodstock an All-American City. Tammeus aims to help readers "feel at home," wherever they may be, through a healing of the heart.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: A Plot for Pridemore: A Novel; Author: Visit Amazon's Stephen Roth Page; Review: Like the sleepy town of Pridemore itself, this story starts slow. But the cast of characters--and they are characters!--grows to include a runaway rock star, a Saudi prince, and a has-been hero, among many others, in a plot for local glory that goes seriously wrong. This writer has a way with pop culture references that adds to the entertainment. You kind of know where it's all going to end up, but you want to stick around for the way he tells it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Plenty Ladylike: A Memoir; Author: Visit Amazon's Claire McCaskill Page; Review: The voice is the Claire I've admired and appreciated forever. Honest, forthright, a real person.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Obesity Code: Unlocking the Secrets of Weight Loss; Author: Visit Amazon's Dr. Jason Fung Page; Review: Every new "diet book" has to have a new twist, right? I knew and appreciated Dr. Fung's work from his online presence. I'm suspicious of any weight loss book that promises to unlock "secrets." I bought it anyway, and I'm happy to have it in my weight management library. The "twist"? That would be Intermittent Fasting. If you are already convinced that low-carbohydrate eating is a healthy lifestyle choice, especially for weight management, then you'll want to know more about IF. It's another tool in your dietary kit. And Dr. Fung's writing style is easy to consume.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Looking At Philosophy: The Unbearable Heaviness of Philosophy Made Lighter; Author: Visit Amazon's Donald Palmer Page; Review: I bought a second copy of a book I've had since the first edition. Glad to have the additional text. Favorite reference for an overview of western philosophy for casual scholars.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Stanley 20800 Corner Brush - Pool or Spa; Brand: Poolmaster; Review: Perfect scrubber for those hard to reach places that a wider/normal brush can't get, like pool stair crevices and corners. Very well made. Sturdy, and doesn't fall off the pole.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Yellow Out Swimming Pool Chlorine Shock Enhancing Treatment - 2 x 4 lbs.; Brand: Coral Seas; Review: I actually got 4x 2lbs, but that's okay. This works very well, and does a highly-effective job at killing algae. It actually works in conjunction with chlorine (you put the YellowOut first into the pool, wait 5 minutes, then add the chlorine. It kinda makes the chlorine more powerful, in a way. Just be careful not to mix it with chlorine first as it can create an adverse chemical reaction.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Schumacher SPC-7A 12 Volt Solar Charge Controller; Brand: Schumacher; Review: Love this product. Works really well with the Schumacher solar cell. Also has an auxiliary output for another 12V DC female jack.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Floatron Solar Powered Pool Cleaner, Natural Mineral Copper Ionizer; Brand: Floatron; Review: The science makes total sense to me, so I decided to give it a try. Assembly out of the box was very easy and intuitive. Only complaint: it comes with a small keychain-like ring, which I guess you can use to attach to a fixture so that it doesn't float around the pool into the skimmers. Problem is, the chain has already started to rust... Not a big deal, really, but given how nice (and pricey) the product is, I would have expected greater attention to detail. Comes with cleaning brush that you need to use to clean the core from time to time. Please keep in mind that the metal ionizing core needs to be replaced after it ionizes down.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: BLOSSOMZ Pool Solutions Swimming Pool 25Lb Chlorine Stabilizer Cyanuric Acid | P17025DE; Brand: BLOSSOMZ; Review: Much cheaper than getting cyanuric acid form a pool store, and with free shipping, it's a deal. A must have to keep your chlorine in check, especially when your pool is busy and the sun beats the chlorine away.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Swimline Large Capacity Floating Chlorine Dispenser; Brand: Blue Wave; Review: The best thing about this chlorine dispenser is how easy it is to load the chlorine tablets into the unit. While many units require you to load the tablets from underneath the dispenser, this one has a very convenient top-loading system with an easy-to-screw cap. Saves a lot of time.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: 5 Polaris Tail Scrubbers for 180 280 360 380 scrubber; Brand: Polaris; Review: Works very well, and fits my POLARIS perfectly.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Doheny's Super Pool Shock 24 x 1 Lb Bags; Brand: Doheny's; Review: Love this, because it's calcium hypochlorite (instead of the stabilized tri-chlor, which can add excess cyanuric acid to your pool over time, making the chlorine less effective -- google this concept for more info). 68% calcium hypochlorite means more available chlorine per pound, so make sure you take this into consideration if your'e comparing prices with other pool shocks.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Exotic BPWS461 Bean Pebble, White, 5 Pounds; Brand: Exotic Pebbles; Review: Bought this for the bottom of a betta fish tank. Looks nice, and functions very well as aquarium rocks. Just make sure you rinse it a few times with soap to remove residue and powder from manufacturing. The pebbles are a bit small, but it works for an aquarium environment.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: DryTec 1-1901 Calcium Hypochlorite Chlorinating Shock Treatment for Swimming Pools, 1-Pound; Brand: DryTec; Review: Not all pool shocks are made the same. The primary active ingredient i most pool shocks (like the ones they sell on Amazon) are made with "tri-chlor", which is a blend of chlorine (calcium hypochlorite) and cyanuric acid (something that protects the chlorine from the damaging effects of the sun, but also weakens the chlorine and its availability in the pool). Too much cyanuric acid means that your chlorine is less effective, especially as it builds up. This is why pool shocks with an active ingredient of pure calcium hypochlorite (like this one) are the ones that I prefer, as they generate more available chlorine, and do not add to your pool's cyanuric acid levels.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Ultrasonic Cleaner Hanging Racks 3Pcs; Brand: FindingKing; Review: Fits true to size. Good, snug elastic bands. Strong material. Easy to pull on/off over shoes, or bare feet if you want.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Integrity Natural Wheat Cat Litter 12 Lb; Brand: Campfire Stuff; Review: Fits true to size. Good, snug elastic bands. Strong material. Easy to pull on/off over shoes, or bare feet if you want.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Orbit 62034 Mechanical Watering Timer; Brand: Orbit; Review: Works phenomenally well. Attaches easily and security to water supply/faucet, with no leaking. Just turn the dial, and it keeps the water flowing until the manual egg-like timer runs out. No batteries required, which is awesome.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Patio_Lawn_and_Garden |

However I did enjoy the book.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Packable Waterproof Handy Lightweight Travel Backpack Hiking Bag 30L (Red); Brand: Himal; Review: I ordered this bag as an extra small bag for a big trip I'm getting ready to take, and it seems to be pretty good so far. Small and lightweight - exactly as described, but somehow is smaller than I thought it was from the pictures (perhaps the one with the teeny ipad/macbook was a bit misleading?) but my fault, as described honestly - I think I'm just not great spatially! Color is a nice, deep pinkish red, not too bright. I sprayed the outside a couple of times with waterproofing spray, as I am guessing the thinner material would make it more water resistant than water proof. I poured water on it after that, and it appears to be perfect now. Straps seem to be pretty hardy and sewed on well. This is a small, transportable bag, and is very lightweight. Will update my review after my upcoming trip! Thanks for the great item, exactly as described.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Everlast 4455-3 3-Pk. Hand Wraps; Brand: Everlast; Review: Keep in mind that these are shorter than normal boxing wraps (which are 180" and offer more support). Otherwise as described. I do not like the texture of these as much as the larger (180) wraps by Everlast, either; they are less stretchy and the velcro does not feel super sturdy and well-attached. Otherwise good! Might be best for someone with smaller hands/ less need to pad the knuckles and support the wrist?; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: ADVANCED ELEMENTS Ultralite Pack Kayak Paddle; Brand: ADVANCED ELEMENTS; Review: I bought this paddle to go along with my Klymit LWD for packcrafting. This paddle is light, strong, and does its job well. I was very surprised by how light it is - the more expensive paddles do not save you much in weight. It fits together easily, and packs on the side of my pack well. It is made very well, and does not feel flimsy or as if it will have any problems.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sawyer Products PointOne Squeeze Water Filter System; Brand: Sawyer Products; Review: I have always had the Sawyer mini filters, which I use in-line in my water bladder. These work really well, but this one is definitely an upgrade to the mini. Major pros: - Can easily unattach it from your inline filter for back flushing/cleaning - Can unattach it to use it as a squeeze filter - I often like to have hydration tablets while backpacking, and this allows me to easily filter water without boiling/bringing other tablets (since my in-line mini filters are so hard to remove and reattach) - Flows really well - requires little squeezing - Simple, lightweight, and effective as always for Sawyer I am really happy I upgraded to this filter - if you need a permanent in-line filter, the mini does great, but this is a nice addition to my setup.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Esbit Hard Anodized Aluminum Water Kettle for Camp Stoves, 1400ml; Brand: Esbit; Review: I just bought this and took it on a backpacking trip. I already have the Esbit CS985HA 5-Piece Lightweight Trekking Cook Set with Brass Alcohol Burner Stove and 2 Anodized Aluminum Pots and this was the perfect addition for trips for 2 people. The normal pot is 985 ml vs this one at 1400 ml; the extra water allows us to make two cups of coffee and two bowls of oatmeal. It is very lightweight - yes, it does take up additional room in your pack, but it is incredibly light. The lid and shape keep water hot and heating up fast (more surface area on the bottom) despite the larger capacity. Great addition to our pack, and I will be using it a lot in the future! The only criticism I have for it is that the lid is relatively loose on the top of the pot. This was annoying while stowing the pot, as it sometimes got "lost" in my pack.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Weanas Professional Backpacking Tent 2 3 4 Person 3 Season Weatherproof Double Layer Large Space Aluminum Rod for Outdoor Family; Brand: Weanas; Review: I have had this tent for almost two years now, and taken it on several backpacking trips. I have the 2-3 person version in green. Space/Size: the 2-3 person tent fits 2 perfectly. There is a bit of room at the end by our feet (we are both ~6ft) and maybe 6 inches on the side with our two Klymit pads. I can sit up easily and hang out in the tent. The vestibule area between the mesh and the rainfly offers a safe and dry place for our backpacks. I have had no problem fitting this on my pack - I strap it on the bottom of my Osprey (50L) Sirrus pack, or put it on the side (in a pocket, using the side strap), or in my 60L Deuter pack that doesn't have bottom straps, inside or in the top between lid and body. Weight: on par with more expensive backpacking tents. I love that the poles are in shorter segments, so the tent breaks down pretty small. In the summer, you can definitely forgo the rainfly if privacy isn't an issue for you. Waterproof: I took this out in a storm last fall (it rained all day and all night) and we did not get wet. Any moisture inside is from condensation. If anything, it is sealed too tightly - we get quite warm in the summer. Other notes: the two door style is awesome. We can both get in and out with trampling the other (ideal at night especially). The color is nice and muted (green) which is pleasant. The bag it comes in is also awesome -small thing to some, but I like that it is a little bigger than necessary (we put our tarp in there too) and then it cinches down. Most carry bags are very basic, but this one adds value. Overall I love this tent. It costs a fraction of the REI and more expensive brands, but can be easily used for backpacking comfortably while remaining light. It has held up over 2 years, and I have no complaints. I haven't had to re-waterproof it, but I do live in California, so get a bit less rain than most! I recommend this tent to those who do not want to go ultra light (think tarp and poles) but want to save a lot of weight and space.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Osprey Men's Parsec; Brand: Osprey; Review: I have a few Osprey packs - I have 2 50L packs (my bf has one, and I have one), a small 19L Flapjill, and this pack. All of them are great and super well made. This pack is large (31L) - I am able to use this under my seat as a "personal item" when I fly, but I'm able to stuff my laptop, large iPad, tons of camera gear (DSLR + 3 lenses), cables, and a book, and it still counts as a "small" backpack. It is very spacious, but also has nice compartments. I especially like the small one on the front, which perfectly fits my phone and another small item.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Sports_and_Outdoors |

It was so warm and cozy that my puppy (when he was very small) took it over from the cats. They are grateful that he has grown so they have it back.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Ruffwear Summit Trex Boots for Dogs - Storm Gray; Brand: Ruffwear; Review: I measured my dogs paws as outlined on the Ruffwear website. Unfortunately they would not stay on and thus were returned. They did not fit his paws and ankle (if you will) correctly to stay on.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Ruffwear - Sun Shower Waterproof Rain Jacket for Dogs; Brand: Ruffwear; Review: The jacket is well designed and doesn't prevent my dog from walking, running or goofing around. It does a good job of keeping the areas covered dry. It remains to be seen how durable the material is. I'm not suggesting that it isn't, but time will tell. Good product, good design.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Pet_Supplies |

Title: Ricardo Beverly Hills Luggage Crystal City 20 Inch Expandable Spinner Carry-On, Golden Leopard, Medium; Brand: Ricardo Beverly Hills; Review: I've traveled about 18,000 miles with this suitcase and I like it. It holds up well, though the plastic pieces do scratch (it was checked in for an international flight and got scuffed). It rolls super smooth (vertically and angled), no issues with the wheels or the handles. The only thing I don't like is that the handle takes up a ton of room inside the bag while stowed so you can't fit so much in there. I suppose that's a problem with all rolling bags though. I can probably fit about a pair of shoes, 2 pairs of pants, 3-4 dress shirts, and some gym clothes in there with no problem. So good for a quick trip or weekend, or if you don't mind laundering your clothes along the way (I do this all the time to stay packed light). Overall I'd recommend this, as its durable and easy to move around airports and stow overhead. Plenty of handles too (top, side, and bottom).; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Crocs Men's Walu Canvas Slip-On Loafer; Brand: ; Review: This shoes are super comfortable! They seem to run a little small, feels like 1/4 size too small, so going up to the next 1/2 size would be too big. I do wear socks with them, so maybe thats why they feel a little tight. Anyway, I wear these shoes most weekends. I currently have the grey ones, but am thinking about getting the black ones too. They wear well and don't look too terrible despite me wearing them everywhere over the summer. I would buy a replacement pair if something happened to these.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: totes Auto Open Close Golf Size Umbrella, Black/British Tan, One Size; Brand: totes; Review: I bought this umbrella because it seems to be large enough to cover both my wife and I while walking in the rain, but folds down compact enough to not be a bother when it isn't raining. It does exactly what it should. Opens big, closes small. A solid tool. I haven't been in a super windy rainstorm yet so I cannot comment on its durability on that front, but based on current performance I would replace it should it get lost or stolen.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Bogs Men's Classic Ultra Mid Insulated Waterproof Winter Snow Boot; Brand: Bogs; Review: Bought these boots after the first few weeks of the New England snowpocalypse this year. Too much snow for me to risk heading out to clean up in my sneakers like I used to before. These boots worked great, they were comfy enough to wear for a couple hours at a go and had enough traction so I didn't feel like I was going to slip. There felt a tiny bit too small (maybe I had to break them in), and the top opening is really big but I was able to get the legs of my snow pants over them. The grab handles were awesome. They look no worse for the wear, so I'd recommend them.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Alpine Swiss Front Pocket Wallet Minimalist Super Thin 5 Card Wallet Genuine Leather; Brand: ; Review: I've taken to using this as my travel wallet - just my ID, a credit card, insurance card, hotel keycard, and some cash (a few bills folded in 1/2). It's perfect for that task, fits easily in my front pocket and has held up for several trips with minimal wear and tear. I would likely repurchase if lost or stolen.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Shacke Pak - 4 Set Packing Cubes - Travel Organizers with Laundry Bag; Brand: Shacke; Review: I am a neat freak when it comes to packing, especially since I like to try and fit everything inside of a single carry-on bag on short trips. I have purchased single packing cubes of other brands but was looking for a complete set - these seemed to fit the bill. Overall they are OK, to me the the material & webbing quality is not quite as high as competing versions, though these are cheaper. The bags do "fit" together so you can stack them on top of each other in a suitcase and be OK if its just a large open space. The sizes are a bit odd - the XL doesn't quite fit in my bag, but the L doesn't hold enough clothes, so I have to mix and match a bit. I do like the carry handles on them, they were useful. My wife and I have used these cubes on several trips and they have held up well, though they were not subjected to anything out of the ordinary. I think a couple of the zipper pulls (not the zippers themselves) have come off randomly, but that doesn't bother me enough to contact the company for a replacement or anything. Overall I think these bags are OK - they work fine when filled with soft items (that is, not electrical cables or computer chargers, I never tried using it to carry those) and hold enough clothes for our use. If they were to get damaged/lost/stolen I would take a look at the other offerings before replacing - however I would still consider these. Additionally, if you register your products upon receipt, the company provides an additional medium cube (I believe, maybe small cube?) for free - that did not influence my review.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: OluKai Nohea Mesh Shoe - Men's; Brand: OLUKAI; Review: These shoes are absolutely fantastic, I love them to death. They are very well made and are holding up great. I love that there is no "structure" to the upper, so I can basically crush them almost flat and pack in my luggage and they bounce right back. They are stylish enough to wear with khakis, jeans, or shorts so I wear them nearly year round. I don't think they run large, however I almost always wear a thin pair of athletic socks, I suppose if I didn't there would be a bit more room, nothing to complain about though. I am trying to figure out which color to get next - highly recommended!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Henschel Hats Aussie Breezer 5310 Cotton Mesh Hat; Brand: Henschel; Review: Bought this hat to take on international trips. Love the fact that its completely crushable, but holds its shape once unpacked. Does a great job shielding from the sun & heavy rain, but remains breathable. Felt very secure while on a boat tour, didn't blow away or anything. I would say the fit is slightly small - I measured my head for a medium, but ended up needing a large. Overall I would recommend - I really like my "Indiana Jones" hat and would replace it if lost or damaged.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Big Skinny Men's World Leather Bi-Fold Slim Wallet with Zippered Pocket, Holds Up to 35 Cards; Brand: Big Skinny; Review: I purchased this after a pretty long search for "the perfect wallet". First things first: this is NOT the "perfect wallet" - but its pretty darn good. I don't carry much in my wallet to begin with, 3-4 credit cards, ID, medical info, insurance card, mass transit card, and 3-5 bills. Overall that is 7 plastic cards & 3-5 bills. This wallet easily handles that load, and remains extremely slim while doing so (1/2" or less). Part of this is because it so rather large (4 bill slots per side), but I think the thin material plays a part in this too. The leather is not "luxurious", but I don't think its advertised to be. I love the coin wallet - I can fit my gym card in there, freeing up the clutter from my keyring while still keeping it close (its one of those small keyring sized ones!). I have a dedicated travel wallet with much less stuff for vacations, so I don't think I'd take this one overseas - but if I routinely received coins the coin wallet would be nice. Additionally, there was a small manufacturing defect in my wallet - a couple emails to Big Skinny support and a replacement is in the mail (should get it soon) - so they stand behind their products, which is always nice. Overall, I would repurchase this if it was lost or damaged, and would recommend it to folks who carry a reasonable amount in their wallet who are looking to slim down.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: NIKE Men's Flex 2014 Run Running Shoes; Brand: ; Review: It took me a couple weeks to really start enjoying these shoes - not sure if there was a break in period or what. I can comfortably wear them all day, either casually or for a run. They are very light & flexible almost feel like you're wearing nothing at all. The top is mainly made of mesh so they aren't that great in the rain/wet but overall I really like them and would purchase them again. I don't think they have great arch support, so be aware of that if you need it. I didn't find that to be a big issue, so 4 stars for me.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Darn Tough Vermont Men's 1/4 Merino Wool Ultra-Light Athletic Socks; Brand: Darn Tough; Review: Bought these socks to use while exercising, most socks used for that purpose wear out quickly with holes in the sole area (from friction while running, I'd imagine). These socks are super comfortable, light weight, thin (no super thick sole, which is what I was looking for), and are very well made. I will update with longevity as time goes on, but the LIFETIME replacement guarantee if worn out! The only thing I wasn't super pleased with was the color choices, but thats a very minor gripe - I went with the charcoal and the colors are true to the image.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hammer Anvil RFID Blocking Minimalist Front Pocket Wallet Genuine Leather; Brand: ; Review: Purchased this item to use as a travel-only wallet, but ended up loving it so much that I use it full time! I didn't purchase this for the RFID blocking capability, so I can't comment on whether it works or not. I am able to fit my driver's license, 3 credit cards, a metro card, health insurance card, and about 5 bills in this wallet with absolutely zero issues...I bet it could hold more! The build quality is good, no missed stitches or loose threads. Overall I recommend this item and wouldn't hesitate to replace if it was lost or damaged.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Clothing_Shoes_and_Jewelry |

Title: Sol Alcudia Center by Melia Apartamentos; City: Port d Alcudia Alcudia Majorca Balearic Island; Review: just come back from alcudia and the hotel was brilliant, we stayed in a studio which was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities you could want, hotel itself was also clean and staff on reception were freindly and helpful, pool pretty big and also cleaned daily although you do have to get up early to reseve a sun lounger, they are chained up until 9.00 but people go and wait from as early as 8.00 but there are also lots of tables and chairs to sit on, evening entertainment not too good but plenty of bars and restaurants to go to nearby. hotel is 5 minutes from the beach which is gorgeous white sand and turquoise blue sea which is only knee-waist height deep for about a mile out perfect for childre. loved this hotel location was excellent bang in the centre of anything, if you go out to eat i reccomend champions (over the canal bridge past lunas on a corner) this restaurant is great value for money and food is really nice, lunas is expensive and food not as nice dont recommend this resataurant at all. we also took a walk to the harbour we walked along the beach best to do this at night when it is cooler as it is a 10-20min walk but is well worth it when you get there. at night lots of little stalls along harbour very pretty. overall had a fantastic holiday and would definetly recomend sol alcudia centre but make sure you ask for a pool view rather than one facing the road!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: THB Tropical Island; City: Playa Blanca Lanzarote Canary Islands; Review: Came here 25-8th August had an absolutely fantastic time will break my review down into sections :) Staff Upon arrival staff were friendly and helpful and we got our request of ground floor room and banana block as traveled with a five and one year old, there was also a travel cor provided free of charge already in our room after I had emailed :). The man in the supermarket was fantastic can you please tell him his little amigo Alfie misses him. Also we did t see his other friend who have him high fives and even slowed down in his car to shout hello to him when we was walks f back from playa blanca, can't remember his name but tall big man with long hair at the back grey curls :) all the staff were so friendly from reception to bar to animation could not fault them Alfie loved saying hola and Gracias :) the photographers were fantastic too Hi Jhon! The lasy did our photographs sorry can't remember your name they were well worth the money. I don't know why people say staff are miserable when we found them to be friendly and helpful, reception were more than happy to book taxis for you and they even booked one of our trips for us well done everyone you do a fab job!! Room I don't know what people expect but our room was perfectly fine, more so! We had a pool outside our block which was fab! Room was very clean and cleaned most days we were there, maid service excellent. Bathroom had a bath and shower decent size living room small kitchenette and a table with four chairs. The tv was flat screen and hubby tuned it so we got more English channels but not there we were in to watch it much. Little terrace which was lovely to sit on in the evening. Bedroom consisted of two twin beds but bigger than British single beds pushed together extremely comfortable, with mirrored wardrobe and bedside tables, we could fit the pull out bed from the living room and the travel cot in the bedroom so both children were in the bedroom with us. Was fab and a comfortable two week stay do t know what more people want, there was also a hairdryer in the bathroom Food Food was lovely always something to choose from and each night there was a different theme. Breakfast was my favourite had the typical eggs sausage bacon beans tomato etc as well as continental different types of bread, fruit and on alternate days pancakes or toasties. Also a chef doing fresh omelettes and fried eggs! Advice use the second grill for toast it's quicker haha, thjnk there should be some toasters as well as the grills as they were slow but not a major. We struggled to eat on Spanish noght but that's because we both don't like fish lol, but the paella looked lovely. Favourite was Italian the lasagne was really good. We ised the pool snack bar for lunch; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Pennsylvania; City: New York City New York; Review: After reading previous reviews was more than apprehensive but me and my partner are open minded as we have read things on here in the past and had a different experience. Check in We arrived early at 12.45, no one in line I went to the front desk and spoke with shafiq/shahid? I'm sorry I can't remember your name and asked if we would have to wait until 3 to check in he said no I asked if we would be charged and he said no he wouldn't charge us and checked us in quickly was very helpful and gave me a proper t out to show our taxes and resort fees had already been paid by holiday company extremely friendly and good service :) Room We were given a room on floor 14. This floor had been updated could tell by the carpet and they were painting whilst we were there (didn't affect our stay) our room 1410a was spacious and clean, yes bathroom dated but original feature we had no issue with the room at all fine to sleep in plenty of room and it wasn't dirty, overlooked madison square gardens. Some of the floors we say whilst in lift could see the carpets were very old but they are in the processes of changing this hotel is massive Location Absolutely fantastic five minute walk and your in Times Square not far from Empire State and macys is on the corner. Fab location. Staff Always friendly from receptionist, tour city bookings, shop, cafe no issues at all when I checked out man on desk said oh no why are you leaving us do you have too made me smile again no faults I would stay here again for the location and again the room was fine, not five star but we wanted a clean functional room and that is what it was. Right opposite penn station so we caught the air train from Newark then got the train to penn station and there we were so easy and only cost $13 Thank you for a pleasant stay would not hesitate to book again :) Stacey Bratt 3rd-7th December; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Keswick Reach Lodge Retreat; City: Keswick Lake District Cumbria England; Review: Stayed here 1st-4th December for my birthday with friends. We had a fantastic time upon arrival we were greeted by a lovely lady who was really friendly and helpful and a glass of prosecco which was lovely. We stayed in a turner three lodge and when we walked in we all went wow. It was beautiful extremely spacious and clean we couldn’t believe how nice it was. Stunning lodges. We went to keswick which is a 15-20 minute drive lovely little town to walk around. We didn’t eat in the restaurant as we stocked up on food at Aldi in Cockermouth. The Kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed. The radio provided in the lodge had Bluetooth so you could listen to music from your phone and the beds and pillows were extremely confortable. We enjoyed our stay so much we have booked to stay in a Constable select lodge 23rd November next year already can’t wait to be back :); Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: LABRANDA Blue Bay Resort; City: Ialyssos Rhodes Dodecanese South Aegean; Review: We returned yesterday from the Labranda blue bay hotel 11 of us in total six adults and five children. We had an amazing time and the hotel is really lovely. I will break the review down. Arrival Upon arriving at the hotel we were met by a porter who took our luggage to the desk. Check in was prompt and we received our wrist bands. At the check in desk we found we had been upgraded to the main hotel for no extra cost and were staying in room 1308 overlooking the water park we had booked the garden annexe so this was a pleasant surprise. The porter took our bags to the room and we went downstairs to check out surroundings. Can not fault the reception staff and the prompt check in. Room Our room was on the third floor and overlooked the water park and to the side of the balcony You could see the sea. The room had a main bedroom with a double bed then another room with two single beds. The bathroom consisted of a bath and a shower. The beds were extremely comfy and the pillows were the best I’ve ever had on holiday and there was two of them! The air conditioning was amazing and made the room freezing cold a welcome on hot days. The maids cleaned the rooms daily and changed the sheets can not fault the maid service really friendly and lovely. My mum and dad and sister had rooms in the garden annexe block 6000. They had been upgraded and were lovely I would say they were more modern than our room. Please if you are in the garden annexe don’t worry the rooms are really nice overlooking the pool and the location is literally a 2-5 minute walk from the main hotel just down the side of the water park. I don’t know what more people could want from rooms they are more than adequate for needs. Pools and water park The main hotel had a main pool and smaller pool which was under cover and another little pool at the back of where the ice cream parlour was. The pools were lovely overlooking the sea and the main pool was where the entertainment team would do volleyball and aqua fit for example. We used this pool twice and then we tended to use the garden annexe pool as it was quieter and easier for the five children to play as they had to move from the shallow end in the main pool when volleyball was on. There was also another pool to the back of the block which was also quieter. The pool we used in the garden annexe had its own bar where you could get drinks and ice cream and also snacks at selected times and was also close to the garden building restaurant. The pools were kept clean and there is no issue reserving sun beds found it easy and there was six of us adults. The pools all had life guards which were rotated throughout; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Auberge Kicking Horse B B; City: Golden Kootenay Rockies British Columbia; Review: We spent one night at the Auberge during a road trip but despite our flying visit Marie France made us feel very welcome, on hand with restaurant advice and stop off's for our onward journey. The room was adequate for our needs with a comfy bed and spacious bathroom. The property is situated on the outskirts of the town and is a pleasant 10 minute walk down hill to local restaurants. Breakfast was a communal affair, with toast, fruits and baked eggs.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Courthouse Inn Revelstoke; City: Revelstoke Kootenay Rockies British Columbia; Review: Staying with Shawn and Young Seon is a real treat. We stayed only one night but they made sure our stay was a memorable one. To a Brit this B&B is more of a boutique hotel with an efficient check-in on arrival by Young Seon and help with the bags by Shawn. Maps and leaflets of local attractions are in abundance in the foyer which like the rest of the property is immaculate and beautifully appointed. Tea, coffee and cookies are available in the dining room which leads out onto a pretty garden. We stayed in the Marie Antoinette room, it is spacious with the most comfortable bed and quality linens. A handy guest directory is packed with menu's of local restaurants that once we made a choice Shawn kindly made us reservations. Breakfast is an occasion with three courses and a sense of decorum. Shawn and Young Seon are on hand with good conversation and clearly delight in making their guests stay a pleasure.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lakeshore Bed Breakfast; City: Kelowna Okanagan Valley British Columbia; Review: We stayed one night in The Spruceview room and it was a delight in an elegant and refined room. The room was cool having ceiling fans and along with the bedroom had a separate sitting room and bathroom with a bath and shower. All was exceptionally appointed, clean and spacious. The house is in a beautiful location with the back garden rolling gently down to the lakeshore at the bottom of the garden you will find low slung Adirondack chairs in which to relax and watch the sun go down. Andy and Louise are charming and enjoyable hosts sharing recipes, making dinner reservations for us and recommending places to visit all in all making us feel very welcome. Breakfast was a real treat, fruits, yoghurt, eggs and sausage along with a muffin or two for our onward journey.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Glass House B B; City: Jasper Jasper National Park Alberta; Review: We stayed three nights at The Glass House in the Garden Room. The property is located in a residential part of Jasper 5 minutes from town and as such is blissfully quiet and relaxing. Parking was right outside the house on the street. The house is bright and airy and spotlessly clean and comes with a charming and well kept garden. The bedroom was adequate for our needs, a comfortable bed, couple of chairs and a table. The bathroom with a walk-in shower is bright and airy with plenty of storage and shelves to unload all your toiletries. Gill and Toni spoiled us whilst we stayed with them, hearty breakfast, doggy bags and good conversation along with plenty of tips for sight seeing and making the most of our stay.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Barclay House Bed and Breakfast; City: Vancouver British Columbia; Review: We had the pleasure of a four night stay at the Barclay in June. The property is impeccably kept, the breakfasts are filling and varied and the fresh cookies to be found each day in your room are a real treat. We stayed in the Beach Room; bright and airy, plenty of storage space and hanging space, a safe, coffee maker and importantly a comfortable bed. The bathroom is clean and the shower spacious and powerful, towels are plentiful and changed each day. The house is in a brilliant location for exploring Vancouver on foot, close to all attractions, the beach, the park and excellent local restaurants. The outstanding feature of this B&B is the staff, from a warm welcome to restaurant recommendations, tourist attractions and road directions and an afternoon chat on the veranda Dennis made our stay enjoyable, easy and unforgettable.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Coppermines Lakes Cottages; City: Coniston Lake District Cumbria England; Review: A well equipped cottage in a quiet and friendly hamlet just outside from Coniston. The cottage is delightfully situated at the top of a single track road leading to the Lake and camp site. The cottage is as well equipped and as comfortable as any home. The kitchen had everything required to self cater comfortably for a family of four and a dog. Linens and towels were provided and of good quality, beds comfortable and everywhere clean and fresh. Logs were provided for the log burner and the central heating was to use as we chose. The garden to the cottage is directly opposite the house over the lane and made for a nice spot to enjoy the evening sunshine. Parking for two cars opposite. The walk to Coniston is via a pleasant and well laid path along the lake. The Fells - Old Man/Swirl How et al are walkable from the Cottage. The pub is within walking distance and a small shop on the camp site by the Lake provides for basic commodities and fresh eggs. We would definitely return to this cottage.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Woodlands Lodge Hotel; City: Woodlands New Forest National Park Hampshire Hampshire England; Review: This hotel is warm, welcoming and excellent honest value for money, perfect for a retreat into the quieter pleasures of life. The staff are gracious, accommodating and undemanding. We stayed on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis and enjoyed every meal, the cheese board made up of locally produced cheeses and homemade chutney was superb. The food was of a standard and presented in a way I would expect of a 5star establishment in a City. As keen walkers this hotel was perfectly placed, there are plenty of walks and places to explore on foot. We walked from the hotel following the circular walk provided at reception and extended it to include lunch time refreshments in Ashurst followed by a particularly enjoyable walk across the heath to Lyndhurst and return. We stayed in room 11 with a beautiful picture window and table and chairs from which to enjoy the view of the back garden and Forest beyond. The room was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully appointed with plenty of luggage & hanging space, the tea tray was well stocked including lovely biscuits and bottled waters. As mentioned by other reviewers I too will mention the small corner bath and low water pressure, as a petite female I fitted into it snuggly if you particularly like a soak in a bath perhaps consider another room. This hotel offers good personal service in a world of chain owned hotels, if you're after the personal touch then I would expect you not to be disappointed with the service offered at Woodlands.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Park Inn by Radisson Bedford; City: Bedford Bedfordshire England; Review: We were celebrating a 80th birthday with 11 guests. The unassuming exterior of the hotel gave way to a spacious bar and restaurant that afforded us all delightful panoramic views of the river Ouse. The staff offered an excellent service, they were professional and attentive without being intrusive. Our thanks and appreciation to all the staff who helped make a special day and in particular our compliments to Shirley who dealt with our every request with quiet efficiency. A good variety of choice on the menu meant there was something for everyone and the wine list was reasonable priced as were bar drinks. The food was cooked well, presented nicely and served expertly, without exception everyone enjoyed their meal.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Palace Hotel; City: Buxton Derbyshire England; Review: Our stay was for just one night to enjoy an evening at the Royal Opera House, The hotel is like a Galleon in full sail. It was packed when we arrived mid afternoon, a wedding was taking place, the bar area was busy and queues at reception for check-in. However, the staff were friendly, welcoming and courteous and dealt professionally and efficiently with the demands. The room and bathroom were old fashioned and very tired, the bed was a double but it was pushed up against one wall allowing access from only side. Despite this the room was warm and linens and pillows clean albeit thin, The pool was warm and had a lane sectioning for swimming, the steam and sauna rooms were reached by a small wooden staircase. The changing rooms were clean with lockers, showers and vanity areas. Breakfast was self-service and plentiful. The hotel is very conveniently located for the Opera House and it is a pleasant walk down hill into the town.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Grosvenor Hotel; City: London England; Review: We stayed at this beautiful, spotlessly clean hotel to attend a corporate function and extended our stay to include leisure time. Travelling by train the direct corridor from Victoria station to hotel is a big plus especially when travelling with luggage. The hotel is ideally located for the Tube making the sights of the City easy to navigate from this location. Taxi and the bus station is also outside. Arriving pre check-in time we were able to leave our bags with concierge. The room was located on the first floor and it and the bathroom were spacious. The room was well equipped with free wifi desk space, occasional chairs and table, storage, hairdryer and toiletries. No view was available from this room, the windows were frosted and they could not be opened, air conditioning was available. The bed was big and comfortable however sleep was slightly disrupted by on-going noise from a generator/air conditioner elsewhere in the building. A good range of hot and cold food was presented at breakfast although the breakfast room was very busy and some food choices were depleted. The hotel provided adequately for the business function we attended, particular reference should be made to the professionalism of the staff. .; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Porto Mare Hotel; City: Funchal Madeira Madeira Islands; Review: We booked this hotel on the basis of other recommendations on this website and we were not disappointed, I can only echo previous accolades. This immaculate, elegant hotel is an excellent example of a well run establishment with effortless service worthy of praise, that bigger and more expensive hotels would do well to follow and from which to learn. The room was a superior room on the 4th floor, the sea view was unobstructed and overlooked the pristine gardens. The daily maid service was spotless and the hotel adopts green credentials for towel renewal and bedding change. The room is well equipped with safe (small local charge), refreshments, toiletries and hairdryer. All the public areas are adorned with beautiful flower displays and the gardens themselves are well maintained and a delight to keen horticulturists, guided tours are available. Breakfast is a sumptuous affair, every taste and dietary requirement is considered. Dinner at The Med was a lovely affair, great atmosphere, creative menu, fine produce and a good wine list with knowledgably excellent recommendations. The Spa is professionally run and the massages were delivered expertly with attention given to the individual needs of the client. A shuttle bus runs daily into the center of Funchal, tickets are available from reception. The walk into Funchal, taking about 40 minutes is a reasonably flat walk and an interesting way to see the street life of the City. The promenade in front of the hotel provides for a good walk to the next village. The hotel is surrounded by restaurants, the quality is mixed but we were well guided by the reception staff.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Icelandair Hotel Hamar; City: Borgarnes West Region; Review: First of all lets say the only reason you should be in Borgarnes is that you are on your way to somewhere else. That said th hotel was very clean and comfortable with the feel of an american business hotel. There is an excellent hot tub on each end of the hotel, perfect for unwinding after a day of hiking in nearby Thingvellir. There is an onsite restaurant as well as a couple of options in town. We did not eat at the hotel so i cannot comment on the quality, though it looked quite nice. An added bonus, the views of the mountains from the back of the hotel are excellent.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Geysir; City: Selfoss South Region; Review: This hotel was very nice, with a convenient location right off the main road of the Golden Circle. The hotel, not quite a hotel more a group of small cottages, was very quiet and comfortable. It is right across the street from the geyser and it had two fantastic hot tubs and a swimming pool. The area offers two choices for dining, the in hotel restaurant, which was very expensive and the service area at the rest stop next door. Neither seemed particularly appealing. If you are planning on going out in the evening, change plans as there is nowhere to go. The only problem we had at this hotel was with the hot water. When we arrived we ran the water to try to take a shower and it did not come through warm. When I asked at the front desk they told me to run for 15 minutes and the hot water would start. They were not lying, nothing bad, just a little strange. Don't miss Gullfoss while you are here.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Center Hotel Plaza; City: Reykjavik Capital Region; Review: The Centerhotel Plaza is an average hotel in the heart of downtown Reykjavik. We stayed on the last night of our trip on the way back to the airport. There was a free breakfast, but we had to leave before it started, but they did leave out some pastries. There was a great deal, for Iceland, on beer during happy hour. One thing worth mentioning, not quite worth listing as a negative, is that the shower was integrated with the rest of the bathroom, the only separation was a 3/4 length door that was about 6" off the floor. This led to the bathroom getting soaked while I was trying to shower.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Junipine Resort; City: Sedona Arizona; Review: This hotel, actually a collection of timeshare/whole ownership units, was an excellent spot for our trip to Sedona. We used this as a base to explore both Sedona as well as a day trip to the Grand Canyon, ~2hr drive. The hotel was located about 15 minutes north of Sedona in the Oak Creek Canyon. The drive between the two offers some of the best views in the area. The hotel staff was very friendly upon check-in and was very helpful in describing the hotel grounds as well as giving restaurant recommendations in the area. The room was a little dated, but it was plenty spacious. We stayed in a forest view hot tub suite. There was a large living room connected to a deck that had both a patio table and a hot tub on it. The deck was very private considering there were units on both sides of us. The room also had two fireplaces with wood supplied daily. This was nice as the temperatures at night dropped to nearly freezing (March). Overall I would highly recommend this hotel. It is worth the drive from downtown.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Paris Marriott Rive Gauche Hotel Conference Center; City: Paris Ile de France; Review: The room was nice, and had air conditioning, which was a plus for a European hotel room. The hotel seems to cater to american bus tours, which comprised a large percentage of the people who were staying at the hotel. As such, the staff speaks English very well, but it does not feel much different than a hotel stateside. The location was less than convenient. There is not much in the neighborhood, outside of the catacombs, which are definitely worth checking out. it is a healthy walk or train ride to any of the commonly visited parts of the city. There is a metro station right across the street and a conveniently located RER B train a few blocks away. All things considered, there is no reason for one to choose to book this hotel unless it is already part of a pre-booked itinerary or you have business in this part of town. The rooms were comfortable and clean.; Rating: 2.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: The Story We Find Ourselves In: Further Adventures of a New Kind of Christian (Book 2); Author: Visit Amazon's Brian D. McLaren Page; Review: This, the second book in McLaren's "New Kind of Christian" trilogy is the most satisfying on some levels. It works better than volumes I and III as story, as fiction. But, too, it is very stirring theologically, a brave attempt at rethinking the gospel in light of current scientific knowledge. What stays with me most, now that I've lain the book down, is its vision of heaven. A provocative yet comforting book. Not for everyone, yet God bless Brian McLaren from one who needed it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Last Word and the Word after That: A Tale of Faith, Doubt, and a New Kind of Christianity; Author: Visit Amazon's Brian D. McLaren Page; Review: Though not the most satisfying installment of the "New Kind of Christian" trilogy (that would be "The Story We Find Ourselves In"), "Last Word" is the bravest, tacking the ultimate component in the "problem of pain": hell. McLaren's deconstructive attitude toward Christian tradition and theology is very refreshing to me, though it would only anger some. If, however, you find yourself, as I once did, trying to be true to Christ but drowning in a sea of nonsense and sophistry, McLaren offers real and caring help. Highly recommended.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Gardener's Son; Author: Visit Amazon's Cormac McCarthy Page; Review: I've read all that McCarthy's given us so far, about two-thirds of his work twice. This was the last work I got my hands on. I read it in a day, then again in its entirety the next day. I believe it to be my favorite of his plays/screenplays, his best purely dramatic work. Recommended very highly.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Cities of the Plain; Author: Visit Amazon's Cormac McCarthy Page; Review: This is, individually, the weakest of the three novels in the Border Trilogy, but only because the others are so grand and masterful. The epilogue to the book, like The Crossing as an individual novel, is important to understanding McCarthy overall.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Crossing (Border Trilogy); Author: Visit Amazon's Cormac McCarthy Page; Review: For my money and time, McCarthy's best novels are Suttree, Blood Meridian ... and this visionary novel, parts of which seem integral to a deep understanding of McCarthy's corpus as a whole.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Counselor (Movie Tie-in Edition): A Screenplay (Vintage International); Author: Visit Amazon's Cormac McCarthy Page; Review: Yes, I would have preferred a new novel from McCarthy, as McCarthy's plays seem generally less successful than his full-on prose. For that matter, I'd have preferred a new older McCarthy novel to more recent work: for all the emotional wallop of The Road, Suttree is a deeper, more penetrating analysis of the human condition, filled with richer and more challenging language. But. I'll take even weak McCarthy over no McCarthy, and The Counselor is far from weak. I read it twice in rapid succession. It is complex and mysterious enough that the plot is difficult to decipher the first time through. But having read it again, I'm certain I will read it yet again in future. It is touched by all McCarthy's major themes, presented almost in a kind of shorthand. Yet, excitingly, it introduces new themes: never before has McCarthy dealt so forthrightly with gender issues, and never to this extent with sexuality. I can't imagine, by the way, that McCarthy has not encountered Roberto Bolano's 2666: the two works have a surprising amount in common. The apocalypse, it would seem, begins in Juarez.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: LEM .75 HP Stainless Steel Electric Meat Grinder; Brand: LEM; Review: several of us went together to get this grinder for deer season. I am taking care of it in the off season. I am LOVING this grinder. I ground up 20 pounds of pork butt and seasoned it where half ended up being a breakfast sausage and the other half was chorizo which is a Mexican sausage. I also just finished grinding up about 15 pounds of hamburger. The sausage ended up being so lean I had to cook it slowly as to not burn it because it was soooooo lean!! incredible flavor! I am used to having to pour the grease out of the pan when cooking sausage. what a difference! Big bite auger: the auger grabs meat and throws it right thru the blades. It is impressive how quickly and easily it grinds the meat. We cut all the meat up before we even start to grind. That seems to be the most efficient way. When making hamburger you first need to grind with the course plate. After that is when I add my seasoning and thoroughly mix. Then grind thru the fine plate. When not making hamburger patties I catch the hamburger into a quart sized ziplock freezer bag. Once the bag gets about 3/4 full I stop feeding meat and push the air out the bag while flattening it then zip. Great way to save the meat in your freezer. What I really like is knowing what is in the food I eat. Why do they make the sausage and hamburger so greasy?? to save some $$. I didn't intentionally make mine lean but it is! Cleanup: actually pretty straight forward. I broke down and but the cleaning kitLEM Products Meat Grinder Cleaning Kit . I found I just couldn't get the small orfices clean enough using just soap and water. I needed brushes. Just be careful you don't lose the white plastic washer/bushing. after the pieces are clean I run them thru the dishwasher. The "T" body, auger and the blades all go in. that way I know everything is clean. ok here is where I had problems: if the meat is fatty it can NOT be cool or room temp. It must be slightly frozen or it will bind up in the auger. What I did was cut into strips or 2"ish chunks and put on a tray and put in freezer for 30 minutes. when I pulled it out it was partially frozen and went right thru the grinder. the grinder will get warm to hot when using. It also is a bit loud. I love the Great Sausage Recipes and Meat Curing book. It is very straight forward and has lots of great recipes. I also like the Weston Burger Express Hamburger Press with Patty Ejector for making hamburger patties. I also use the Kitchen Scale - Baker's Math Kitchen Scale - KD8000 Scale by My Weight to get equally sized patties. I also suggest you use a food grade lubricant on the plastic washer and the front blade. I haven't used it yet; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sleep Innovations Cool Memory Foam Contour Pillow with Microfiber Cover, Made in The USA with a 5-Year Warranty-Standard; Brand: Sleep Innovations; Review: My back has been killing me for the last couple of years. We bought a new mattress. My pain subsided for awhile but came back. I had several massages hoping to resolve the problem but the problem remained. I finally decided to replace my old pillow. WOW! Much to my delight my lower back pain is completely gone!! If I knew this would resolve my lower back pain I would have been willing to pay much much more. Lol Pillow is very firm/hard and heavy. It does hold more heat than my old pillow. I am mostly a back sleeper. I wish I'd bought this pillow years ago!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Norpro Heavy Duty Adjustable Cheese Slicer; Brand: Norpro; Review: I love strong flavored fresh tasting sharp cheddar. I can't find the cheese I want already sliced. I buy the aged blocks and use this slicer for sandwiches. It performs perfectly. I've found the best slicing technique is to hold the slicer with the handle down at a 45 degree angle. The tricky part is the last 0.5" of the block. If you lose that angle the wire pulls away from the cheese block and leaves a chunk on the block. If you put the cheese on the edge of a cutting board it'll eliminate that issue. I love my slicer. Hand wash it immediately after use.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Chard MM-102 Meat Mixer with Stainless Steel Hopper, 20 lbs.; Brand: Chard; Review: I use this to mix seasoned hamburger and make sausage. It says 20 pounds but I don't push it that hard. 5-10 pounds is what I use. It does a quick job of mixing the spices in. Much easier than a spoon and a bowl. Lol. I give it a few spins one direction then change. Cleanup isn't bad. The big tank doesn't fit in our dishwasher so I was that by hand. The auger goes in dishwasher. I have been happy with it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: LEM 8 Lb .35 HP Stainless Steel Electric Meat Grinder; Brand: LEM; Review: I ordered the .35 hp grinder to grind meat and save some money on quality hamburger and sausage.

I called LEM and they told me the cutting wheel was back ordered 6 weeks!! :-( Returned Hopefully in a few days I can change my review; Rating: 1.0/5.0

It's an unclosable vent hole. Kinda defeats the purpose of putting the lid on if I can't keep the heat in. In the pictures the vent holes are hidden. There is nothing in the description that mentions it either. Nothing on the box either. One lid arrived with a chip knocked out where the rivet was drilled. The pans feel very flimsy.; Rating: 1.0/5.0 | amazon_Home_and_Kitchen |

Glass bottom in your washroom, an infinity plunge pool on your deck, and a hot tub in the back.. The washroom is really cool too! The hot tub takes ages to fill - especially if you want hot water. But once it's filled, you can watch TV from the hot tub which we really enjoyed! Service is great, they throw a cool show Friday nights and a delicious BBQ every few days for an extra charge. I'd highly suggest travelers get the all inclusive package because the food can get costly and their meals are delicious- so are their pretty drinks! I'll definitely miss this vacation and waking up facing the ocean every morning! Make sure to get a sunset view... Sunrise view faces the island so you don't really feel like you're in the middle of nowhere... Room 818 was perfect!!!! :); Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: EqUILIBRIA SEMINYAK; City: Seminyak Kuta District Bali; Review: Super romantic, quiet, and absolutely gorgeous! We loved our stay at this hotel! The pool is really nice and I'd suggest you get the 2 floor room with the water fountain outside of your bedroom- breathtaking!!! The staff were so friendly here and they'd have breakfast ready and set up upstairs in our dining room part of the villa every morning! I'd also suggest you go for the private (super romantic) BBQ dinner that they set up for you by the pool. It was so cute and the food was delicious! If we ever make it back to Bali (which I hope we do), I'd stay here again in a heartbeat! Everything was amazing!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Holiday; City: Praiano Amalfi Coast Province of Salerno Campania; Review: Hotel Holiday wasn't bad. To be honest, traveling in the amalfi coast makes most sense to stay in positano or amalfi. Praiano is far from both and not walking distance. That was the downside of our vacation here. On the plus side, the bus stop was next to the hotel but hard to get to amalfi from there, not so difficult to get to positano though. One bus con 's right in front of the hotel approx every hour. Another thing we didn't like was because we needed a car to go to Naples train station (bus takes approx. 3 hours) the hotel charged us 100€ and said we have to pay them. Later on we found out the hotel kept 40€ of that just for making one phone call. If you're interested in getting from amalfi to Sorento or Naples airport or vice versa, call this number 3687430140 and you may get a cheaper price (60 or 80€) rather than going through the hotel and paying 100€. Salvatori drove us to Naples Train station and he was absolutely wonderful and took less than half the time (1.5 hours) to go to Naples as it did going to Praiano from Naples airport (3.5 hours) Breakfast at the hotel was decent, but the view was incredible.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Flor da Rocha; City: Praia da Rocha Portimao Faro District Algarve; Review: The hotel is close to the beach but a good distance away for it to be quiet at night. Hallways to the rooms are so dark. The WiFi in the hotel is terrible and only accessed in the lobby which was so annoying!! Haven't swam in the pool but saw a few kids in there complaining that it was freezing.. I'm guessing it isn't heated, but looked clean! Tennis courts are available for only 3.50€ with rental equipment and games room with pool table, table tennis and more, was nice to have on a rainy day. Bar by the pool area was nice, not too expensive but food was limited. Hotel also has no double beds in the entire place, which we found really odd. Rooms were cleaned daily. Lots of restaurants and bars walking distance. Staff was very nice and helpful, giving us flyers and brochures for all types of excursions. I'd stay here again so long as they fix their Internet and brightened up their dark Erie Hallways.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Glaronisia Hotel; City: Pollonia Milos Cyclades South Aegean; Review: Words can't even describe how incredible our stay at glaronisia was. Chrisa and Costas were exceptional hosts. Honestly never met any hotel hosts nicer than them. They helped us out so much with different things that we wanted to do on the island. Chrisa called so many different companies for us to arrange different tours, knowing we didn't have much time on the island. We really appreciated that! Our room had two Huge balconies and another small one so we could face different parts of the water. The room was exceptionally clean, bed was pretty comfy and bathroom was a regular European size. We were in room 104. This hotel is in pollonia, so about a 15 minute drive to the port. Nearby here, there is a small set of restaurants walking distance from the hotel and a quiet little beach. These restaurants are known to be the best of milos. We tried "kapetan nikolas" and loved their freshly grilled fish. This hotel is especially great for location because it's only a 5 to 10 minute drive to papafragas (nice place to take pics) and sarakiniko (stunning "moon beach" that everyone in milos must visit!!!) milos is a really quiet island, so I'd highly highly suggest you rent a Vespa (approx. 16€ a day) , quad bike (approx. 20 € a day) or car (we paid 30€ a day). It was the best thing we did by renting a vehicle because we explored the whole Island and it was so easy to get around with using a map the hotel gave us. Breakfast was great! Scrambled eggs, different kinds of bread butter jam honey, fresh fruits, coffee tea, cereal, yogurt, juice, croissants, and the best thing made fresh daily, the Greek pastries. I'd go for breakfast right at 730 just to have those fresh out of the oven! Overall, I'd highly suggest you stay here, rent a car and visit the islands and book a day trip to kleftikos beach, which you can only get to by boat. Ask Chrisa to help you arrange a boat tour at least a day or two in Advance for kleftikos as they do get booked up or go visit the milos travel agency just a five minute walk from the hotel.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Margarita Hotel; City: Firostefani Santorini Cyclades South Aegean; Review: Our stay at Margarita was miserable. Where do we start? When booking this hotel, we did it mainly for its "location".. On hotels.com it specifically said" free airport shuttle" meaning drop off and/or pick up. As we've read in other messages, the staff at the hotel would like to know at least a day before. A week and a half before our trip, we had emailed them and heard nothing. We Emailed again and finally the Morning we were heading to Santorini, they replied with "we don't make transfers to and from Port or airport anymore. You have to take a taxi to the hotel and pay for it". False advertising. But We had no choice, and paid 15€ to get to our horrible hotel. Location wasn't so far from fira, about a 10-15 min walk.. Walking back from fira was a bit of a mission since it was up Hill and zero sidewalk, so be careful if you unfortunately do choose to stay at this place. We had a trail of ants on the floor near our balcony door and a huge beetle looking bug crawling by our bed. It was disgusting (I have two bites on my arm that I woke up with on our second day) . The shower was really small and curtain doesn't reach the bottom so your entire bathroom floor will be soaked. Bed feels like you're sleeping on Springs. The owner and his wife are not friendly at all. When we got to the hotel, we went back down to tell them that we booked a double bed, not two singles and the guy just did this hand action, as in we just have to move the beds together ourselves, which was cool, but no offer from him to help us out. The cleaners were decent with their job, but because of the insect incident I had requested she Change my sheets because I felt like I was getting bit by mosquitos in my sleep. Came back to the room and it was the same exact bedsheet. I know this because there was a stain on the side of it since day one and the stain was still there. That annoyed me but I decided to suck it up as we only had a night left. Keep in mind, you will be woken up by the really tough to open, hard to lock doors and the loud staff. They seriously shout in the morning to each other, it was so annoying. Breakfast; see my picture. It's the same every morning. If you're really curious, it's bread with butter, jam, or honey and a cup of coffee or juice. Nothing else. I can guarantee there are much nicer hotels for the same price. This place was way too expensive for the type of hotel that it was. Santorini isn't cheap, but I bet if you're okay with spending 100€ a night, you'll get a much nicer place. We paid about 75€ a night here. If you're cool with roughing it out, walking quite a bit to; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Santa Catarina; City: Lisbon Lisbon District Central Portugal; Review: This hotel was good. Didn't have an elevator, no TV in room, wifi worked perfect in rooms though. The staff were helpful and friendly. The reason this isn't getting 5star from me is because the noise level between rooms is as thin as paper. I could here everything people said or did (which was quite disturbing) from my room to theirs.. Breakfast was nice and in a cute little area. Rooms were pretty small and bathroom doesn't have a door which is really weird, only had a curtain.. But location is very central and if I were only coming to Lisbon for a couple of days, I'd stay here again :); Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Santa Maria Inn; City: Rome Lazio; Review: This hotel was perfect for our few nights stay in Rome. Location was ten minute walk from the termini train station and about a 15 min Walk from the Colosseum. Hotel was clean with good WiFi in room. Bathroom a bit small. Staff were very friendly and breakfast was nice too! I'd recommend this hotel :); Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Oscar Hotel; City: Athens Attica; Review: I personally wouldn't stay here again but my main reason is because of its location (there are a few other reasons) .. It's about an hour walk to the acropolis. Any hotel by the acropolis is a better/cuter area to stay in. Lots of local restaurants that you sit outside to eat and bars. The Oscar Hotel isn't a terrible hotel, but the beds were rock hard and the shower spills everywhere. Not that big of a deal, but what really made this experience worse was the lady who works mornings at front desk. She couldn't have been more rude or showed more attitude. We were only asking her questions and her responses were as if we were annoying her. Also, we apparently booked a "single" room which has a double bed but only apparently allowed for one person. They charged us more on the spot (7 €) which wasn't bad but now we realized why it is a single room. The bed was tiny. The room was just as small. Barely any space to unpack. She could have given us a bigger room that is actually meant for 2 people. Aside from all of this, location is key when you travel... And we found this location quite far from everything..; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Casanova; City: Venice Veneto; Review: Venice is small and everything can be done by foot, but this hotel is basically in the heart of San Marco square just a few steps from it. The hotel was not the nicest though. The room was big but floor felt dirty, bathroom was tiny, and hotel staff were nice. WiFi only works down in their lobby which isn't the nicest area either. Breakfast was decent. Two minute walk to public boat taxi stand that takes you to train station (40 minutes with boat taxi). The Hallways had a terrible smell, but because of location I'd still consider staying here again. For the price, it isn't a terrible hotel!; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Royalton White Sands Resort; City: Falmouth Trelawny Parish Jamaica; Review: The royalton white sands is a wonderful resort. It has been an amazing 7 days here. Check in was smooth sailing, all we had to do was sign some papers, while we did so, someone came and offered us something to drink. One thing that was annoying were the wristbands. They don’t stay on, as it’s tied on with string- but they open your room doors so they were important not to lose. I had to go back to front desk a few times because I lost my wristband, which wasn’t an issue at all and they were always happy to assist. I give it a 4 star because I do think the rooms are quite small, things look a bit outdated and I’ve had to kill mosquitoes a lot in the room. So we stayed in the “suites” (was honestly just a regular room in my opinion) which came with two queen beds and the bathroom is a bit larger than the actual hotel, and comes with a small jacuzzi tub in the washroom- unfortunately for us, the jets did not work, but we didn’t want to pack up and switch rooms so we never mentioned this to the hotel. These suites are located closest to the ocean in a separate building from the hotel. We had a regular room in the main hotel the first night and our floors for some reason got really wet, I think we opened our balcony door for like a minute and with the humidity from outside and the cool air from inside, it made the entire room sticky and wet, and my daughter kept slipping. We complained and managed to get a bigger room since the resort wasn’t busy at all, which was super accommodating because the first room was really small with the crib for the baby too. The staff here are incredibly polite. Everyone has been super nice and accommodating. We came with our 1.5 year old daughter and they were all soooo friendly with her. One waitress at the buffet (Trecya) loved our daughter so much she even got her a little present which was soooo sweet of her!! honestly they made us feel so at home and welcome here. Nicest staff ever. ❤️ I think this resort is almost perfect, with some minimal flaws, like their coffee shop not having many great selections of desserts. Just basic cakes, but not very tasty ones. And their drinks aren’t great to be honest, the ice cream tastes old and there is only 4 flavours... and their Frappuccinos and milkshakes need a lot of work..I think they add a lot of Splenda in it. And it’s really annoying to drink because they don’t provide straws anywhere.. no judging here, they’re doing it for the environment and that is amazing...I think if this resort just had some soft chewy cookies or even a crepe or waffle station, that would be amazing. All in all, the coffee shop is definitely not a make or break by any means. The food is good, not everything was; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Rock Hotel Gibraltar; City: Gibraltar; Review: We did not stay at the hotel but we did call in for an early aternoon tea. The scones and the tea were excellent. We ate on the terrace. Half way though our light meal, a monkey leapt onto the table and stole my scone as shown. As soon as we reported this to the staff, they suggested that we should go inside and apologised profusely for the event, which was hardly their fault - but does occasionally happen. They replaced our tea and scones absolutely free of charge, continued to be most solicitous of our comfort and were generally very charming.

Title: Steigenberger Hotel de Saxe; City: Dresden Saxony; Review: This is a wonderful place to stay slap bang in the middle of Dresden. The rooms are comfortable, the staff are friendly and helpful, the restaurant is very good and the breakfasts are excellent with more than satisfactory provision to cater for all tastes. This was my second stay, having greatly enjoyed my first visit two years ago, and I will definitely return. However, I encountered a big problem with the wifi. My son was getting married in the city and I was the link person for the British contingent who were staying in various parts of the town, including the Steigenberger. It wasn't until another guest warned me that the wifi was poor that I realised that I had a lot of missed messages. This was something of a disaster and I was compromised on several counts. As soon as I reported the fault, the hotel investigated and found that my room had no wifi at all. They left a bottle of Trocken and a letter of explanation and apology in my room by way of compensation. I was upset that I had missed some vital communications. But now I am more than disappointed to see that problems with the wifi were reported here on Tripadvisor as far back as January. I had assumed that it was a new problem that the hotel was fixing as soon as it possibly could. Other wedding guests who had chosen cheaper hotels had no such problem. It is 2016 - more expensive hotels should surely have an obligation to offer a full range of modern facilities. A shame! I will ask if it is ended before I book next time.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Hotel Fron; City: Reykjavik Capital Region; Review: We stayed for three nights last week and could not fault any aspect of this hotel. There were three of us.

They were kind and sympathetic to our every need and booked our return journey to the airport, gave us the necessary bedding to turn a double bed into two singles, recommended places to eat etc. Nothing was too much trouble. Although they were all great, one particular male receptionist who was on duty for two of the nights we stayed gets a special mention. The location is superb. Right in the centre of the city and a two minute walk from the bus stop where we picked up buses for our tours and journeys to and from the airport. We plan to go back and will definitely stay at the hotel again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

I haven't compared the Butler Creek covers with the ones that Trijicon sells, but I've read of problems with those whereas these seem to be just fine.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Decibullz - Custom Molded Earplugs, 31dB Highest NRR, Comfortable Hearing Protection for Shooting, Travel, Swimming, Work and Concerts; Brand: Decibullz; Review: I wanted them to, but these didn't work for me. The molding process was straightforward, but I was never able to get the inserts to create a solid soundproof seal in my middle ear on either side, even after a couple of remolding and reinsertion attempts. I could get a seal at times, but just about any mouth or ear movement would break it. Not enough security to trust these for use on the range or other shooting situations.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Larue Tactical IndexClips, 72 Piece Set; Brand: Larue Tactical; Review: I've tried these clips, Magpul covers, and Tango Down covers on the rails of my SCAR. The others can be slightly loose, which I don't care for at all. Sure I could put have tape on the rails under them, but that just seems a band-aid solution. These LaRue clips are snug from the start on both metal and polymer 1913 rails, and stay that way.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Otis Variety Pack Receiver Brush, Nylon/Blue Nylon/Bronze; Brand: Otis Technology; Review: Nice brushes for cleaning firearms. I agree with at least one other reviewer - Otis should offer the blue nylon brush for sale by itself, as it's easily the most useful and also fairly unique compared to what other manufacturers offer. But, they don't, obviously a way to make more money by forcing us to buy stuff we don't need. So, for this, one star off.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: POD-LOC by KMW; Brand: KMW; Review: Perfect replacement for the hard to use and marginally effective knurled knob on Harris S bipods. It's ridiculous that Harris hasn't switched to something like this as a standard feature for their products.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Sports_and_Outdoors |

Title: The Ultimate Guide to Tarot: A Beginner's Guide to the Cards, Spreads, and Revealing the Mystery of the Tarot; Author: Visit Amazon's Liz Dean Page; Review: This is a fantastic book not only for the beginner but for anyone that loves Tarot! I'm not a beginner, I've worked with and studied Tarot for several years and found this book to be lovely. The rich, full color detailed pages and images are a treat. My favorite part of the book is the spread designed to work with each of the major arcana cards...so helpful for really getting to "know" the majors. What a fantastic refresher for me! I've only just received this gem but the richly colored images, the layout of the book and how the information is given, it will not be leaving my side! Best Tarot purchase I've made in quite awhile!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Aquarian Tarot: Jeu De Tarot De 78 Cartes Colorees Avec Livret D'Instructions (French Edition); Author: David Palladini; Review: Love this deck. It has this vintage/retro artwork that feels classic and cool, quirky and interesting. I really like it. It is very RWS but has its own style and class all its own that makes me just really appreciate it more and more. I like the card backings, the size, and stock of this deck very much. This one will always have a place in my working collection.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Pagan Ways Tarot; Author: Anna Franklin; Review: I'm not usually the biggest fan of decks with this artwork style but I have to say, I really, really like this deck. This one pulls off this type artwork quite seamlessly for me. It reads easily and is very beautiful with clear and concise messages that are cut to the chase, pull no punches. The card backings are absolutely gorgeous, one of my favorite backings of any deck. The card stock is sturdy and the card size is quite larger than standard tarot size so if you prefer bigger cards, you're sure to be pleased. The magnetic box and accompanying book are done very nicely. Great purchase.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Oracle of the Mermaids: Magical Messages of Healing, Love & Romance; Author: Visit Amazon's Lucy Cavendish Page; Review: Beautiful imagery that I just can't get enough of. This deck is stunning and I couldn't be happier with it. It is my new favorite oracle deck, hands down. The artwork/imagery is so lovely that I find myself staring and studying them closely in total appreciation of their beauty. With that said, this deck does contain some cards that have a different art style than the others. Some/most have the absolutely gorgeous digital style art while some (less than than the digital imagery) have a painted artwork style. For me this isn't a big issue but for some it may be slightly distracting to the flow in readings. I did my "homework" on this deck before purchasing (watched video reviews/unboxings) but did not think the differing artwork would hinder the beauty or readability. I'm SO glad I went with my gut and made this wonderful deck mine. This time of year, mermaid energy calls to me quite strongly so I wanted a deck that I could use each day to connect and work with them and this deck has proven a perfect choice. It reads wonderfully with messages that are inspiring, healing, helpful, and thought-provoking. My intuition kicks in well with this deck and while the accompanying book is lovely and helpful, I find that my first intuitive "hit" is right on. I read the book message and take it into consideration but it seems that this deck works best intuitively for me. The card stock and card size are done well with the cards being near typical oracle deck size. This deck, for me, is a near perfect package of readability, beauty, and quality.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Familiar Spirits (The Cotton Family Series) (Volume 1); Author: Visit Amazon's Nicole Canfield Page; Review: I absolutely loved 'Familiar Spirits'! I polished this puppy off in just days, I was so hooked! If you are into paranormal fiction, this book is for you and you will not be disappointed. It has a great story line...ghosts/spirits, goose-bump paranormal activity, life, love and loss...the awakening of a flame the main character didn't even realize she was carrying. This book is a page-turning, can't-put-it-down, I have to know what happens gem! I cannot wait to read the next installment of the Cotton family! Well done, Nicole Canfield! You've got one excited fan here :); Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Legacy of the Divine Tarot; Author: Visit Amazon's Ciro Marchetti Page; Review: Thank you, Ciro! This deck is amazing. Not only is it beautiful, it reads like a dream. Clear, concise readings are just a given here...readings flow so smoothly and the "story" unfolds effortlessly. There is an ease about it, a comfortableness that's wonderful and truly a delight. It's a deck that just seems to love having a "conversation" with you. I got my start in Tarot with Ciro's beloved classic 'The Gilded Tarot'. It was the deck I learned Tarot with and it has continued to remain one of my most beloved decks and always most certainly will as I have such a place in my heart for my dear and trusted friend. I can truly say that I have no doubt whatsoever that 'Legacy of the Divine' is sure to accompany my beloved Gilded as a most treasured and trusted deck that I return to time after time without fail. I can absolutely see it joining my Gilded as my now "go-to" DECKS :) The book included is one of the absolute best on the market. I have an ever growing library of books on Tarot and I have to say, 'Gateway to the Divine', the book that accompanies the deck, is in my top 3, hands down. My only and single issue with the book is that it does not provide an accompanying picture of each card in the meanings section, which is a slight disappointment for me as I'm one to throw the book in my bag and read on my lunch break or just whenever I'm on the go. I enjoy glancing over at the picture as I'm reading about the card meanings, mentally noting what the author touches on and explains in the text. For some, it will be of no issue at all and for me, it is only the slightest issue but I did feel the need to mention it. With that said, as a whole, it's a superb book. It gives not only Ciro's take/view on each card but also includes the opinions of several other people as well which, for me, gives such broader points of view for consideration in your readings. Reading their opinions and views along with Ciro's own really opens up each card giving the readings such a fresh aspect that I've never seen or experienced before in a book/card set. Bravo, Ciro...well done! Your work has changed my life, truly.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Steampunk Tarot; Author: Visit Amazon's Barbara Moore Page; Review: I love Barbara Moore decks. They read like a book for me, without fail. I can always count on her decks for brutal, shocking honesty and this one did not disappoint one bit. I think this may be the most literal reading deck in my collection, hands down. While Steampunk isn't necessarily my genre, which is why I didn't purchase this deck sooner, the artwork is nicely done, interesting, pertinent, and rich. Some of the costumes of the characters are just beautiful (Two of Swords, The Star, The Queens, Ten of Wands) just to name a few. The book is well written, informative and in such a way that feels personal and easily relative just as expected for Ms. Moore's work. I'm so glad that I welcomed this quickly beloved deck into my collection.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Tarot of the Magical Forest (English and Spanish Edition); Author: Visit Amazon's Lo Scarabeo Page; Review: Make no mistake about this deck, it is cute, it is sweet, it is lovely, it's cutesy and charming and could absolutely be a deck for children or for reading for children, but those aspects hinder this amazing deck NONE! It reads spectacularly. No matter the topic, the question, or what's going down that has drawn you to the table for a reading, this deck can and will deliver. I love the characters and the stories that they tell and I must warn you, you will without a doubt fall completely in love with them all. The Strength card in this deck is precious and is the card that made me purchase this gem. I highly recommend this surprisingly blunt all the while charming and beautiful deck.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Steampunk High Priestess Satin Tarot Bag; Author: Barbara Moore; Review: Lovely bag to hold your Steampunk Tarot or any favorite Tarot deck. The colors are vibrant and gorgeous. I love it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Soulful Woman Guidance Cards: Nurturance, Empowerment & Inspiration for the Feminine Soul; Author: Visit Amazon's Shushann Movsessian Page; Review: If you're looking for a terrific, empowering, nurturing deck aimed toward female empowerment, this is the deck! The artwork is bold and stunning. The colors and lines of the artwork is eye-catching and delightful. Card stock is good, a bit sticky when you first get them. I'm hoping that improves with usage. The card backings are so beautiful...simple but lovely in red with a yellow/golden mandala. They look stunning on my altar table. The cards are quite large, perfect size though, in my opinion, for an Oracle deck. The size really, really lets you take in the artwork...if the cards were smaller, the details of the artwork would suffer...again, my opinion, of course. The guide book is short and sweet with just the/an elaborated affirmation of each card per page, pretty much. If you don't like wordy guidebooks, you'll likely love this one. If you love good "meaty" guidebooks, this one will fall short in that department, most likely. I typically like the in-between space, not too much information that it falls into the "overload" category but enough that I get a good feel for each card's message...with this one, at least right now, I feel like I'd like a bit more information but this could change the more I get to "know" the deck. I'm thinking that they've allowed room for your intuition to wander a bit, to get a feel for what the card means for you, personally. I do have the feeling that I'll have to make a bit of effort with this deck if I want to really connect with it and have it warm to me. While it is beautiful and well done, it has a slight bit of a "cold" feel to me...again, it's new so I'm sure this will correct itself with time. I mention this because, with some decks, you feel an instant warmth, an instant "hug" upon "meeting" a new deck but I just didn't get that feeling with this one so I thought to pass the thought along. Overall, this deck is everything a Blue Angel deck should be. Great boxing, good card stock, lovely artwork. I look forward to working with this beautiful deck for years to come.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Strathwood Rawley Textilene Chaise Lounge; Brand: Strathwood by Amazon.com; Review: I purchased this chair three times. The first one had the rubber insert on the bottom of one of the legs busted off prior to packaging. It was busted off and the bottom of the leg was slightly bent out of shape. The insert was not in the box, however it could have easily fallen out of the large opening, considering the box was never properly sealed. The second one arrived with forklift damage to a leg were it sheered off the entire bottom corner. The third one arrived as if it were shipped with a pallet of car engines on top of it. The box was crushed and the cross brace under the chair was bent so bad it cracked the welds at both sides and the pipe split open in two places. I've returned all but the first one. I managed to pry off an insert from one of the other damaged chairs to replace it. I now only need to pry out the remaining piece of plastic and reshape the leg so I can install the insert from the second defective chair. Not a bad chair if purchased at a store, but be warned of sloppy packaging from this company. It may as well have been wrapped in tissue paper held together with staples. Other than that, its a nice chair. To bad they couldn't spend a little more money on better shipping material for these chairs. For the price you pay, you'd expect them to arrive undamaged at least once out of three times. For this reason, I will not be purchasing anymore products from this company.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Apollo Horticulture GLRGW19 Gull Wing Hydroponic Grow Light Reflector; Brand: Apollo Horticulture; Review: I purchased two of these hoods and they are both defective. The cord was installed on the bottom of the hood and not on top. Shipping was also pretty slow compared to items I ordered through other companies on the same day. I'm now waiting to hear back to see if I'll end up having to pay shipping again to return these defective hoods.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Buttercrunch Lettuce (aka Butter Head Lettuce) 1000+ Seeds. Certified Organic Non-GMO. Sprouting Guaranteed.; Brand: PowerGrow Systems; Review: I purchased a package of buttercrunch lettuce seeds that came in a small foil envelope with a tiny label that just read "Lettuce" that took forever to be delivered. I don't know what these seeds are, but they are definitely NOT Buttercrunch lettuce. After trying many times to get one of these seeds to sprout, I finally got one to grow. However, it looks nothing like a Buttercrunch lettuce. It looks more like a lawn weed to me, possibly a dandelion. I definitely won't be eating this thing nor will I be wasting anymore of my time trying to grow these seeds. I get enough lawn weeds in my yard during the summer that I don't need to start planting them indoors. Save your money and buy seeds at a reputable store.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: AcuRite 09150RM smartHUB with My Remote Monitoring App; Brand: AcuRite; Review: I bought the AcuRite smartHUB about a year ago along with three remote sensors and it all worked great up until AcuRite decided to do a firmware "update" a few days ago that has now rendered it completely useless. I just wasted over $100 on temperature sensors that no longer work because AcuRite destroyed the hub with their updated firmware. I will never buy another AcuRite product for as long as I live.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: AcuRite 01060M Color Thermometer Display & 3-Sensor Temperature and Humidity Smart Home Environment System with My Remote Monitoring App; Brand: AcuRite; Review: I bought this AcuRite product last year and the software was updated shortly after I got it all set up and working properly. Unfortunately, the update replaced the colorful, easy to use interface with an ugly, black and white interface that's now confusing to use, lacking previous features and eventually destroyed the hub. I was sent a new hub which also stopped working. AcuRite is now shipping me out a third hub which they claim will work this time. So far I'm not too impressed with this product and wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy. I'm not expecting this new hub to work any better than the other ones and the app still has a flat, black and white interface that looks and works like a DOS program.; Rating: 1.0/5.0 | amazon_Patio_Lawn_and_Garden |

Title: Clarity; Brand: Jimmy Eat World; Review: This album is by no means perfect, but it contains some of the strongest material Jimmy Eat World every wrote. "Lucky Denver Mint" is the highlight of the album, but "Sunday", "Ten", and "Just Watch The Fireworks" also have a special place in my heart. "Goodbye Sky Harbor" while listenable, tries to be an epic lasting over 16 minutes. Lasts about 10 minutes too long, in my opinion. The overall feel of the album early 2000's emo, but not the ilk of My Chemical Romance or the Used. Highly recommended; "Clarity" gets more listens from me than "Bleed American".; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Makes me want to put my hands into a wood-chipper so I could no longer pick up a computer mouse or a cd player or ipod or any other music playing device which might contain this album. This album is probably one of the signs that end of the world prophecies will come true.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Grace for Drowning; Brand: Steven Wilson; Review: This new album from Steven Wilson album is great. It gives a vibe that sits somewhere between early Porcupine Tree and Fear of A Blank Planet Porcupine Tree. There's some great melodies interwoven into epic tracks of piano flourishes and saxophone howls. Wilson does a fair amount of singing, but the instrumentals strike me as the star of the show. Although I wouldn't call the album experimental, it does give off the progressive rock aura. If you've been craving some new porcupine tree that sounds like the old school porcupine tree, you can't go wrong.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Echoes from the Underground; Brand: Vertical Horizon; Review: I've run through the album several times; it may be the strongest album in their catalog. I played this album through in the car for less-than musically inclined friend and he also really liked it on the first listen. The band still retain most of their classic 90's jam-band sound but it feels fresh and updated with the addition of some electronica background pieces and piano parts. It's a shame that VH fell off the radar; their output has been consistently good over the last four or five albums. Melodies are front and center throughout all the songs. >>>Standout tracks>>> Song for Someone - Classic VH sound. It's not my favorite track on the album; but the generic lyrics and catchy melodies could probably make for lead single. Matt's Scannell vocals are really strong and shows off the new synthesizers. Nice buzzy guitar hook around the 3:50ish mark which melds into a solo. Lovestruck - A deviation from the typical VH sound; This song makes me wish they worked with synthesizers more often; it's got a nice opening vibe/hook which carries it through the almost six minute run time without feeling old. The last minute closes with a mellow blues-inspired guitar solo that fits perfectly. Instamatic - Perhaps not instantly catchy due to a more complex song structure; however the writing is fantastic. One of the best songs on the album. Neil Pert (of the band Rush) collaborated. The anthemic repetition of "Now you gonna run" makes for a satisfying conclusion.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_CDs_and_Vinyl |

The hotel is close to the metro stop and it takes only 10-15min to get to city center, using regular tickets. Room was very clean but quite small. Staff speak basic english but everyone was really friendly. Hotel's elevator fits only 3-4 people and it is really slow. Breakfast was lovely.

Hotel has three huge pools and swim up bar. Food in resort was amazing, there is a buffet restaurant and 3 a la carte's...such a big choice in every single one of them. The pizzeria was also fantastic. Our room was very clean and big with the most beautiful view ever!!

Title: Canto del Mar Hotel Villas; City: Zihuatanejo Zihuatanejo de Azueta Pacific Coast; Review: We began our stay in Zihuatenejo here and were so happy to be within such close walking distance to the beaches, the Mercado Central, the Marina, restaurants, and downtown. We absolutely enjoyed the newness, the cleanliness and the service. Huge shower, nice little kitchen, and a king-size bed (which is a treat as most places do not offer this size) with air conditioning for a restful night's sleep. The neighborhood was very private and quiet. We would definitely stay here for a longer time during our next visit!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Bungalows Solecito; City: Barra de Potosi Zihuatanejo de Azueta Pacific Coast; Review: Perfect! We were wanting a place on the beach, walking barefoot, a pool for plunging after playing in the surf, huge rooms, a huge bed, fans, stone lined shower, a full kitchen with outdoor dining on our own veranda - and we found it at Bungalows Solecito! A wide open beach with a fifteen mile stretch of sand to explore, water of perfect temperature, and lovely grounds for relaxation. Blanca and Manuel were perfect hosts and the staff kept the place immaculate. We fixed most of our meals during our five day stay, but did treat ourselves to a delicious breakfast and excellent dinner prepared by the house chef served outdoors under the palms. The value for the price is incomparable. We'll be back!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Villas Las Azucenas; City: Zihuatanejo Zihuatanejo de Azueta Pacific Coast; Review: Best value for staying near Playa La Ropa in Zihuatenejo. A few minutes walk to the beach, near great dining and quite comfortable. We had a room with a kitchen that was very useful for making breakfasts and some dinners. Our balcony had great views and just the spot for cocktails at sunset and morning coffee. Our hosts were attentive and the staff very helpful.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Mango Rosa Nicaragua; City: Playa Marsella San Juan del Sur Rivas Department; Review: We were delighted with our 'cabin' - very spacious with a well-equipped kitchen, living room, large bedroom and full bathroom. Our front porch was so nice for morning coffee and afternoon relaxing. The bar/restaurant with palapa roof served delicious meals and quality beverages. The staff was so friendly and helpful - Nicole and Emily made us feel like family! It was an easy walk to the relaxing beach of Playa Marsella. Rides were always available to the surfing beaches of Maderas, and Hermosa, as well as in to the fun, hip town of San Juan del Sur. The sunset boat cruise is not to be missed. The garden-like setting was incredible, complete with welcoming pool, and howler monkeys helped us greet all six mornings of our stay. Very adventuresome but quite relaxing!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Miss Margrit s Guest House; City: Granada Granada Department; Review: Miss Margrit's was lovely, with beautiful construction and layout. The two courtyards with a fountain and a swimable pool were a delight. Our room was very comfortable, and the bathroom was amazing with the shower being in a garden! The breakfasts were filling and delicious. Nina and Chris were so helpful with making travel arrangements for us, as well as recommending places to eat and things to see. We couldn't be happier with our stay.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Casa Bueras Boutique Hotel Ex Lastarria Boutique Hotel; City: Santiago Santiago Metropolitan ; Review: Bath robes on the cushioned bed greeted us in our quiet room overlooking the pool in the garden. The afternoon tea that was provided was a nice pick-me-up after our flight. Breakfast buffet was amazing, eggs cooked to order and lattes! Tasty selection of fruits, breads, cheeses and pastries. Found a little chocolate treat waiting on the nightstand. Folks at the reception desk were so helpful with arranging transportation, sightseeing trips, and restaurant recommendations. The map they provided was a great help for our walking tour of the neighborhoods. Wish we could have stayed longer and definitely will stay here again!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: CasaSur Bellini Hotel; City: Buenos Aires Capital Federal District; Review: Very modern, updated, clean, comfortable, well decorated, quiet room with a comfort-top king bed, mini-kitchen and balcony. Great neighborhood and conveniently located for walking to parks, avenues, and all the way to the river. Breakfast was delightful with a full array of pastries, ham, fruit, omelettes, eggs cooked to order, and lattes. The staff was quite attentive; when our flight was later in the day, they allowed us to store our luggage at the hotel. After our return from rambling in the rain, we were encouraged to use the guest spa and shower room to freshen up! (now, that's service) They also arranged our pick up and delivery to the airports that we were using. We would definitely stay here again!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Outside Inn; City: Nevada City California; Review: A bit of the past to experience in this updated '50's motorhotel. Very cute as each room is decorated with its own theme. We always enjoy our stay here, and after trying out several rooms, we've found all to be charming, comfortable, quiet, and creatively renovated. The walk through the neighborhood to downtown is the perfect length to stretch your legs for breakfast, dinner, shopping or just rambling through this very interesting town. The River and mountains are close by for further adventures!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Outside Inn; City: Nevada City California; Review: The Celestial Room is one of our favorites! The coffee provided is a treat; all the amenities were needed and used to make our stay quite comfy. The walk into town is so easy; very nice to park the car and just ramble. Staff is very helpful.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

When I received the dress I was rather pleased that it mostly looked the way it does in the picture. There was just one thing that unsettled me a little.

Title: Coast Coal Harbour Vancouver Hotel by APA; City: Vancouver British Columbia; Review: I had the opportunity to stay at this hotel because of my involvement in the LuLu one half Marathon. From check in to check out, my family and i were treated as valued guests. Our room was spacious, clean and had a great view of the downtown and North Shore Mountains. Staff at the front desk provided encouragement before the run and gave us an ovation when we came back after the run. I don't know if a lot of people know about this downtown treasure.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: W Bellevue; City: Bellevue Washington; Review: The property is very new and sparkling. You only find out that when you find it! It is very difficult to find, but if you are travelling the right way on Bellevue Way, you can see a "W" on the building just passed the entrance. Yes, there is a "W" on top of the building, but who can see when driving. We stayed in a Cosy King, It was very nice, even with the shower, in the middle of the room. Decorated very new style, really enjoyed the settee by the window. Bed and bedding was great. Ate breakfast and Lunch at The Lakehouse, which is set up like a lakeside cabin. Jason was very enthusiastic about the menu, explaining about the concept and we enjoyed our meals. Don't ask for peanut butter though. Front desk staff very helpful and engaging, as was the doorman, who was managing a long line of party folk on Saturday night in their lounge, which appears to be party central for many folks. Will certainly give them another visit!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Westin Bellevue; City: Bellevue Washington; Review: First time here, but once you find the front door, can be tricky with Bellevue Way, staff are very friendly from the door to the front desk. Check in was seamless and they appeared to be happy that we were their guest. Free parking self parking on the weekend! We were there only for the evening, going on to Portland, but love those Heavenly Beds.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Westin Seattle; City: Seattle Washington; Review: The front door staff and the concierge were great, but then came the front desk! Upon check in and our welcome to the Westin, our front desk attendant was totally not interested in the fact that we had chosen their property and was less than engaged in answering some simple questions, like late checkouts and explaining some other concepts that other Starwood properties do not have. The checkout front desk person was cut from the same cloth, you are there and how can I get you finished without having to engage in conversation! The location is great to Westlake Centre, Nordstroms and Pikes Market, so that is a big plus.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Nines a Luxury Collection Hotel Portland; City: Portland Oregon; Review: Upon check in we met Catherine on the front desk and what a STAR she is! Unfortunately that can't be said for other front desk people who do not know their city, so had trouble giving directions to restaurants.The concierge seemed on top of the list, until we were going to our dinner reservation that he was to have made and discovered that the restaurant was closed for the weekend and we were not informed. Also had a challenge with the phone operator who argued with me when I made a request to connect me with another room. The dining room staff were helpful, but I think that they need some more time in the trenches and they will be able to bring their great attitudes with the service. The valet staff were great as well, and were under a lot of pressure as most people were checking out at the same time. The room was alright, not that impressed with the colors, but you can't please everyone. They are rated as a FIVE DIAMOND, and Catherine is that rating, but you can't be that rating, if you say "Sorry", when they make a mistake, but do nothing further, where in other properties I have stayed at went out of their way to make up for the "oops" and in a way that made you believe you were a value customer. Get the staff trained and more empowered and perhaps you can then rate your self at the top.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Buddha Bar Hotel Paris; City: Paris Ile de France; Review: With the weak dollar and fewer 5 star hotel rooms currently available in Paris (Plaza Athenee, the Ritz and one or two more hotels are currently closed for renovations), we chose to stay at this newer hotel in the 1st. It is very stylish and cool, but not in a French way, so if you are looking for a more classic Paris stay, this is probably not your place. It reminds me of the Costes but without the pretension and velvet rope outside. The rooms and baths are very nice and thoughtfully outfitted; the rooms and suites on the 2nd floor have the highest ceilings and most space. The only disappointment is the closet size- the hanging part of the closet is literally 12 inches wide, that's it. So if you are traveling with suits and/or dresses, best to get a suite as they have double closets, but only 24 inches wide! The bathrooms are terrific with Toto elecctronic toilets & built-in bidets. The service is warm & friendly. Everyone from the bellmen to the concierges were extremely friendly and helpful. For nearly half the price of the Bristol (just a few blocks up the same street), you can stay in a cool hotel, albeit without the room size and all of the amenities (such as the pool). The continental breakfast was actually excellent, a wonderful surprise. I would certainly return and stay there again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Corinthia Hotel London; City: London England; Review: Recently stayed at this newer beauty right at the Thames. The place has terrific space and scope, from the public areas (they even have a mini Harrods kiosk off the lobby!) to the guest rooms, this hotel was designed & built by folks who definitely know what they are doing. The flower arrangements in the public areas remind me of the Georges V in Paris. The color palate is soothing, the furnishings stylish yet comfortable, and the hotel has an overall vibe of hushed luxury. All of this comes at a price, and a rather high one at that; they ran a special in April when we stayed there and it was expensive but worth it, but when I checked the prices for my return last week, the price went up nearly 40%, putting it at the same price level as the Connnaught, Savoy and Berkeley. The bathrooms are large and very well put together. However, beware of ordering the Continental breakfast- the menu is misleading and you are charged per person, not per double occupancy. The breakfast is of only average quality yet is extremely expensive. But the afternoon tea is of average price for this type of establishment and is very tasty. If the hotel were located in a nicer area (Mayfair, Kinghtsbridge, Belgravia), I might consider returning, but it is in the Embankment area, right along the river at the Waterloo bridge, which means for the most part one has to trudge through the throngs of tourists to get to those areas which have the best shopping and restaurants. If you need to be in this area or don't mind the crowds, this hotel is a real beauty.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Baccarat Hotel Residences New York; City: New York City New York; Review: We have stayed here three times so far this year and love it each time. The hotel itself is gorgeous, from the stylish lobby, bar & restaurants to the bottom floor pool and spa to the guest rooms above. It is like staying in a guest room of a well to do friend's Paris flat. As to be expected, Baccarat crystal is everywhere from the lounge's windows, to the guest room light fixtures to all of the glassware and even the bathroom glasses to use when brushing your teeth. While they were still working out one or two kinks, it is new after all, the service is friendly, the space ultra-comfortable and the location right smack in the middle of everything. To us, it is worth the price and we are looking forward to returning again in December.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The St Regis Washington D C; City: Washington DC District of Columbia; Review: Stayed there in the past but found it increasingly dark & tired. Was told they redid the place so we gave it a try. Well, they only redid the lobby, the rooms were old, smelly and had a nonsensical layout/furnishings. The front desk relocated us to a different room but it was worse (smelled of stale cigarette smoke, curtains didn't close all the way, missing furniture, etc.). Not acceptable at $700/night x 4 nights. I finally complained directly to the manager and was satisfied when they moved us in to a suite that was bright, light and didn't smell. All through out our stay, please know that EVERYONE was nice, helpful and wore a smile, which went a long way to helping us feel better about being there. The food in the restaurant was good, great breakfasts and the staff went out of their way to make us happy. If they hadn't taken care of us, would not have given them 4 stars, and after they redo the guest rooms, am sure it will be 5 stars all the way.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Plaza Athenee; City: Paris Ile de France; Review: A few years ago we switched from the Bristol to the Plaza Athenee at the suggestion of our travel agent. She was so right! This hotel understands that in a city where five star luxury hotels are commonplace, it is the service that distinguishes them. From the moment the doorman opens the door to your taxi upon arrival, to the greeting at check in, the introduction to your accommodations, on and on, you get it, the service is through yet warm, professional yet friendly. And they never let you forget that they are there to make sure you have the best time possible. Everyone from the front desk to the exceptionally helpful concierges are amazing. This time they remembered how much my wife loves their house scent candles and made sure to have them already in our room and even gifted some for us to take home. For the record, upon their refresh a couple of years back, the accommodations are bright, airy and supremely comfortable; the beds & linens make you want to order them for your own home! The technology is pretty thorough and easy to use. We had a large walk-in closet which my wife and I both appreciate as we like to buy some clothing while in the city of lights ( and fashion!). We have been staying in the same room the last couple of times and I might want to change that up, but all of the rooms I've seen are just perfect. And then there's the food. Oh my! The breakfasts are fantastic. Room service is on the spot, I am always amazed that my poached eggs arrive still warm and yolks runny- most restaurants in LA can't get them to the table that way! But if you can, have breakfast downstairs in the main dining room. Aside from the fact that the room literally sparkles, the food and service are both three stars worthy. We travel often and like to stay in the very best hotels in the world, regardless of their size or cost. And, without a doubt, this is one of the very finest.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Apartamentos Formentera I; City: Sant Antoni de Portmany Ibiza Balearic Islands; Review: I stayed in Apartamentos Formentera for 11 days. I loved my apartment- room 103. My sister and I had -a kitchen with amenities like a microwave, hobs, fridge, cups, plates, bowls, cutlery and a kettle (but electric kettle would be better than the normal one) with a table and a chair, -lounge area with a table and two armchairs, -bedroom -closet with a mirror -en suite bathroom -two balconies- one for hanging the washing, second with a view on the sea with a table and two armchairs. (we asked for balcony with the view on the sea) The hotel has also got a swimming pool which is a bit small but better than nothing. The hotel staff are really friendly especially Rebeca who was extremely helpful when I needed help. I did not get robbed in the hotel like some people but I would advise to keep your valuables in a hotel deposit box- it costs 4 euros. It was clean but if you want the cleaners to clean your room you must hang the -please clean me leaflet on the door handle. Deposit for aircon remote control is 10 euros, for remote control for the TV as well, but when everything is ok you will get the deposit back when you check out. You have a 5 minutes walk to Cafe Mambo and Cafe del Mar from the hotel and 10-15 minutes from San Antonio main port. It is often loud at nights so I do recommend the hotel to party goers or to people who like to party more than sleep. Opposite the hotel there is a nice bar with flamenco dancing on Thursdays, beer costs 2,50. Next to the hotel there is a bar-restaurant with free wi-fi so don't worry if you don't have free wi-fi in the hotel. you can have a coffee there for 1.50 or English tea for the same price but a tea is served in a tea pot so you practically have two teas for the price of one :) Two turnings from the hotel there is a road called Carrer de la soletat- there is a cheap supermarket where you can buy for example 1.5 litre of water for 33 cents whereas opposite the hotel the same water costs 1 Euro. Beer in that shop is also cheap- 89 cents per a can of Heineken. There is also a tobacco shop on that streets where ciggies cost 4.10 euros per packet of 20 cig. Also a couple of steps later there is Cerveceria Urban where you can have a lovely half a chicken with chips and salad for 4.50 euro! Hamburgers are good as well and cost 1.85 euro! I would come back to that hotel if I was in my early 20s but I am not and I had a bad experience in Ibiza- I got poisoned and robbed in San Antonio- where the pubs and cheaper drinks are. Please be careful and don't take your all money or cards with you- better keep them in a safety deposit box in the; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Irmak Hotel; City: Marmaris Marmaris District Mugla Province Turkish Aegean Coast; Review: I had a great time in Marmaris and the hotel was really good. Close to the beach, with the swimming pool. I was just a bit unhappy about the room because it was very basic but that room was booked by our travel agent and it was quite cheap so I could not really complain. As far as I know the hotel has better rooms equipped with airconditioning and other extras. The advantage was the food which was absolutely delicious. During the time in Turkey I also went to two other hotels because I bought a trip in a trip and I must say that the food in Irmak was definitely the best. The majority of guests are Russians and Polish.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Huzar; City: Lublin Lublin Province Eastern Poland; Review: I have stayed in that hotel 4 times and if I have to stay for a night in Lublin I will probably book a room in this hotel. Why? First of all, it's reasonably priced for a room. Secondly, the rooms are clean, there is a shampoo, soap, tv, 2 bottles of water and a kettle. Thirdly, it's located in a quiet area so you will get some sleep. Finally, the hotel's restaurant offers breakfast with a range of tasty food and drinks. The only thing I was missing there was a blow dryer. The staff are very polite :-); Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Windward Hostel Zadar; City: Zadar Zadar County Dalmatia; Review: The hostel is about 15 minutes of walking distance from the beach. First time I had the pleasure to stay at such a new hostel where rooms are equipped with air-con, comfortable beds, good size lockers and electric window blinds. There are many bathrooms and showers so I never had to wait in a queue to have a shower. There is a living room where you can relax and talk to others. I like the open plan with check-in desk with a dining area and the kitchen, however I found it a bit too crowdy at times and I had to wait to take my food out from the fridge. But over all, it isn't a big disadvantage of that place because a kitchen is always the most crowded place at a hostel. The hostel has a balcony which is great for cigarette smokers. The girls - staff were very helpful and easy-going. The atmosphere is great, it feels that you are a part of travellers community :) There is always something extra for you to help yourself to, like, for instance, yummy biscuits or sweets :-))) I also made a friend there, so it's another plus for Windward Hostel. I highly recommend it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Silver Hotel Budapest; City: Budapest Central Hungary; Review: On the website where I was booking the hotel room, it was written- free parking. I arrived at the hotel, I left the car straight in front of the hotel and the next day I got a fine ticket because nobody had informed me that the parking wasn't entirely free (only between certain hours). Now, I will remember to double check and not to believe in everything that is written . The rooms were untidy, I found holes in my bedsheet. For breakfast, there isn't much variery of food and it's average. The hotel staff are quite helpful and friendly. The location is quite ok-15 minutes from the main touristic attractions.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Korona Spa Wellness; City: Lublin Lublin Province Eastern Poland; Review: I highly recommend this hotel. It's a perfect place if you want to relax. It's close to Lublin. It has got an indoor swimming pool, spa and many other facilities like a room for children to play. The rooms are spacious, with air conditioning, hair dryer, fridge, safe, kettle with tea and coffee, late room service - if you are peckish you might still eat something at night. The staff are very helpful and polite. You might directly speak to the owner of the hotel if something is not right- in the hotel there is a leaflet with all the information about the hotel and his phone number. The restaurant menu is quite limited bur the food is very good. Breakfast is yummy as well. The hotel is cle. When I have a chance I will go back there again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: OXO Good Grips Salad Spinner, Medium, Clear; Brand: OXO; Review: After I buy fresh lettuce I rinse all of it with cold water and spin it with the green salad spinner then I store it in the progressive lettuce keeper and it stay's as fresh as the day I bought it for over a week. Very easy to use and keep clean. I do not use the brake button because I read that plastic can wear off and fall into your food, which is possibly true, but the basket stops spinning when you lift the top off so not a big deal as far as I am concerned. Basket and bowl are both made of high quality strength plastic that was better then what I thought it would be. Note that I believe no spinner will get all the water off but this leaves just enough on lettuce or other fruits and vegetables so they will not dry out but not leave them soggy.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: The Eastbury Hotel; City: Sherborne Dorset England; Review: We spent Monday night there we were there for the seven course tasting menu and breakfast and I must say the food was absolutely wonderful.We were taken to the room jasmine by the owner when she opened the door I wanted to cry it was horrible everything was so old and worn out stained it was so depressing ,the bathroom was the same old with mould around the bath .On leaving I had a quiet word with the owner Nicky saying how horrible the room was her reply was yes it needs refurbishing and if I had said something she would have given us another room but why did she put us there in the first place I just felt all the rooms must be the same .There is also an annoying noise from the extractor fan in the kitchen that ran until 9 30 at night then again at 7 in the morning .although we are home now I still can't believe they had the nerve to think we would think that room was ok it was so insulting.; Rating: 1.0/5.0

Title: Sea Containers London; City: London England; Review: We stayed at this hotel because we were going to the theatre nearby , although I do think it's a great hotel I felt it was just too trendy for our age group. All the staff were very attentive but I couldn't get my head around the casual dress being a five star hotel and they all were wearing jeans and trainers also at check in the staff including the ladies all were wearing jumpers.But saying that I can see the appeal if we had been a lot younger.The room and the view were fabulous but again let down by water not being in glass bottles for five star it should not have been in plastic bottles.The hotels position on south bank was just perfect for getting to and from all the things we wanted to see a great hotel for the under fiftys.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Beamish Park Hotel; City: Marley Hill Gateshead Tyne and Wear England; Review: We have just come home from a lovely break at beamish park hotel,the reason for our stay was to visit the beamish museum.The museum was situated a couple of miles up the road from the hotel and I can definitely recommend it we had a great day out.The hotel was spotless and all the staff were extremely friendly especially the lady who runs the restaurant at breakfast she was a credit to the hotel so good at her job rushed of her feet but not fased at all.The food that was served in the evening and at breakfast was absolutely superb the breakfast was one of the best we had ever tasted .; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Royal Decameron Cornwall Beach; City: Montego Bay Saint James Parish Jamaica; Review: We have just returned from a fantastic holiday at this hotel without a doubt the best thing about this hotel is the staff each and every member went out of their way to make our holiday enjoyable , in 45 years of going on all kind of holidays we have never laughed so much , the entertainment staff do a fantastic job I’m not very good at joining in all the activity’s but on this holiday I could not get enough of it I wanted to do everything as razor and his team made it such fun . All the staff in the restaurant waitresses and chefs all do you proud especially Santana and the lunch time chef I don’t know his name .Tanya did a fantastic job cleaning our room after a day on the beach it was a pleasure to go back to a five star clean .The pool and the grounds were kept spotless the gardener worked tirelessly to keep all the shrubs and plants looking tip top.Every evening it was a pleasure to sit in the bar and watch the entertainment whilst being looked after by Romaine who was always a pleasure to sit and talk to.The hotel being built on the beach was a real plus the sand pure white and the sea was crystal clear and so warm.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: White Bicycles: Making Music in the 1960s; Author: Visit Amazon's Joe Boyd Page; Review: Written by a man who has produced so many classic albums and who has encouraged and brought to the limelight many artists I love, I simply had to get this book. It certainly delivers, too. Many, many interesting facts, dates, anecdotes about as many artists are crammed into the pages, so it makes for avid reading, especially if you're a music fan interested in the music in the past century (for we can not only read about obvious artists and groups like Fairport Convention and the Incredible String Band, but about jazz artists like Duke Ellington and Sonny Rollins as well). The downside of this book for me is the fact that it stays a bit on the surface. Both the artists as indeed the writer himself stay a bit distant, so that I didn't feel as involved as I could be. It might well be that Joe Boyd just wants to keep it factual and concise, but I think that he could have written a better book had he chosen to go a little deeper into (some of) the artists whose records he has produced. Nevertheless, this is a fine book and you'll love all he has to write. Like I said, for me not buying and reading it immediately was not an option.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Green Grass of Wyoming; Author: Visit Amazon's Mary O'Hara Page; Review: I started re-reading My friend Flicka and Thunderhead, having read these some thirty years ago and I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed reading the stories just as much as I did then. So it seemed logical to purchase the third and last part of the story of the McLaughlins, Thunderhead and Flicka. And I loved this book as well. Mary O'Hara takes us to more mature ground in this book, as she philosophizes more about the relation of man to God and lets Ken fall in love with Carey. Mary O'Hara writes very well: she knows what she is talking about, she tells a gripping story with lovable and very real characters and her descriptions of nature in its fierce and gentle aspects show that she deeply loves it. I think that it's a shame that her books are so much linked to all those inferior "girls with horses" books (I bought a paperback version of 'My friend Flicka' and to my horror the package included some kind of charm or necklace). Written some 60 years ago, this book is still very, very readable and it is a fitting conclusion to a great trilogy.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Seasons They Change: The story of acid and pyschedelic folk (Genuine Jawbone Books); Author: Jeanette Leech; Review: Jeanette Leech's "Seasons they change" is an excellent and enjoyable book about acid (or psychedelic) folk, and you may be surprised to find how many artists can be tagged "acid folk". She handles the subject in a sympathetic and gentle way and if her style is somewhat terse, this is quite likely due to space limitations - considering the 350+ pages (though personally I wouldn't object to a considerabe expansion). It's obviously well-researched and apparently she's spoken to quite a few of the artists she writes about. And there are a lot of them. I rummaged through my collection and practically all of them feature in this book (which made me realise how much of an acid folkie I am!). From the pivotal Incredible String Band to Pearls Before Swine, from COB to Circulus, from Vashti Bunyan to Holderlins Traum, from Mr Fox to Stone Breath, they're all here (except for, puzzlingly, Faun Fables). Leech sticks to the facts and embellishes these with quotes from those involved, and thus avoids unnecessary and unwanted notions. When she does ventilate opinions (for a large part in her assessment of who's important and who's less so) I generally agree with her. She bravely undertakes to bring a narrative thread to the multitude of facts, persons and times she brings up, and this is perhaps the area where she's least successful - but no blame there as far as I'm concerned. Additional editing should eliminate a few typos like "Quicksilver Message Service". The physical aspect of the book is fine as well, excepting its binding - it takes some effort to keep it open. A warning is due: this book is dangerous. It makes you want to look into artists you weren't aware of, which will certainly drain more money from your pocket. Otherwise, it's highly recommended, nay, quite obligatory for all who take interest in folk that's not solely "trad.arr".; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Virgin Suicides: A Novel; Author: Visit Amazon's Jeffrey Eugenides Page; Review: "The Virgin Suicides" is a higly original novel in both content and writing - Jeffrey Eugenides is endlessly creative in his descriptions of the Lisbon girls and all that's associated with them. Written from the perspective of a besotted neighbourhood boy, many years after the Lisbon girls mysteriously killed themselves, the book deals with the events surrounding this rather gruesome premiss in an investigative way, even to the point of mentioning (but not giving) "exhibit # ...". But a "'Catcher in the Rye' for our times" as a review is quoted on the cover? Most emphatically not. The story could not keep my disbelief suspended, as they say. Despite florid descriptions of the house the girls live in and opinions of all who get their say (interviewed after many years by the storyteller), we don't get to know the main protagonists at all - which may be a way of keeping them 'mysterious' but it's not very satisfying. The storyteller and his friends are quite engrossed and mystified by the girls, but I found it hard to believe that this went as far as watching the Lisbon house for days, weeks and months on end without getting bored by lack of result, especially as we don't get any picture of the years before the tragedy starts. We get a lot of theories thrown at us by the storyteller as to why the girls kill themselves, but the one glaring hugely at you, the enormous dysfunctionality of the Lisbon family, hardly gets real attention. Mrs Lisbon, obviously the main culprit of the whole tragedy, is more like an evil force of nature than a woman of flesh and blood, and her wraith-like husband is equally non-human. What made this couple go so far as to keep the girls at home? There is an extreme lack of background information here. Why didn't the girls, their number being a formidable four (for the main part of the book), react more against the absurd repression of their parents? Why was there no one, not even a single government type, inquiring after the family, like a health and education officer to check why the girls were kept out of school? Not even family members or friends (there must be some, surely!) get past the door. In the end, these and similar questions dissolved my suspension of disbelief, and the girls' characters were too sketchy for me to really bother about their fate and their parents'. I wonder what the impact of this story would have been as a short story rather than a novel.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Pandora in the Congo; Author: Albert Snchez Piol; Review: Deeply impressed as I was with Pinol's first book 'Cold skin' I started reading his new book with quite a bit of expectation. The story is told by the writer Tommy Thomson who is asked to write down the story of Marcus Garvey, in prison accused of murdering his masters in the heart of Congo. What follows is a jumble of fragments of the Garvey story and bits about Tommy himself, which aren't really interesting - the recounting of his own encounters with the 'evil' tortoise owned by his landlady, for example, is bordering on the ridiculous. The story of Marcus Garvey starts off quite well but Pinol finds it necessary to introduce yet another species of alien people, not like in 'Cold skin' emerging from the sea but from the Congo earth. And yes, like in the first book a female alien is destined to have a love affair with the story's hero. And yes, again the other aliens clash with the reckless men who invade their territory. And in the end we find that this fantastic story as told by Marcus Garvey is completely false and just fabricated to get him out of prison. A rather grotesque and elaborate fabrication, I might add. I thought Alberto Sanchez Pinol a clever writer with a healthy dose of philosophic ideas at his disposal, but I'm afraid that I must re-evaluate. If you don't know his first book then this one might still appeal to you; I you do then avoid.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Picnic at Hanging Rock; Author: Visit Amazon's Joan Lindsay Page; Review: I've known 'Picnic at Hanging Rock' for years, like most introduced to it by the film of the same name. I completely fell for that film, and decided to pick up the book on which it was based. Despite what some may say, the book is even better than the film, packed with interesting characters and written with a great deal of psychological insight and humour and keeping firmly away from sticky romanticism - which the film may justifiably be accused of, considering the film's pan flute accompaniment. Pity Joan Lindsay didn't write more novels! I already had a paperback edition - but decided to purchase this hardback as I'm sure to read and re-read this fine novel for years to come.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Huka Lodge; City: Taupo Taupo District Waikato Region North Island; Review: If you are looking for a little luxury on a trip to New Zealand then Huka Lodge is the place to go. It's ten minutes outside the town of Taupo and the not-to-be missed Lake Taupo and right next to the magnificent Huka Falls. Guests can enjoy the fishing, play tennis or exercise in the swimming pool. The villas are all separate with beautiful views. Inside the rooms are huge with a good sized dressing rooms and fantastic bathrooms. No television so it is a complete chill out place. Sitting outside on the patio watching the river while enjoying afternoon tea was a real treat. Guests are treated as guests at a country house. The pre-dinner drinks with staff and other guests in front of the roaring fire in the lounge area was well organised and the canapes were delicious. An excellent dinner is provided in separate rooms for each group of guests. It's expensive but worth it for the experience.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Rixos President Astana Hotel; City: Astana Akmola Province; Review: I was very apprehensive about staying in the Rixos President hotel after reading the reviews on tripadvisor however I was pleasantly surprised. My room was spacious and very clean and the bathroom was excellent. Everything worked and nothing fell off the walls! The hotel itself is impressive and the staff were very friendly and helpful. A car and driver were organised for me within minutes of my request. The food was not five star but it was fine. A bonus is the bookshop inside the hotel which has a big selection of English paperback novels. Daily English language newspapers can be printed in 15 minutes. The spa was excellent although most of the therapists could not speak English and had to call the receptionist to translate. It is about a 20 minute walk to restaurants and shops which is not ideal in winter but would be a pleasant stroll in summer. All in all a good hotel with good facilities but not good enough for a five star rating.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Novotel Den Haag City Centre; City: The Hague South Holland Province; Review: The Novotel is in an excellent location in De Passage in the centre of The Hague. De Passage is a covered shopping area with lots of clothes shops, a good bookshop ( with English newspapers and books), speciality shops and a couple of nice restaurants. The hotel itself is clean with a friendly staff. Internet access is available at a reasonable price in rooms and is free on a computer in the hotel lobby. Breakfast is average. Lots of cold meats, cheese, bread and pastries which are left uncovered for hours. The hot breakfast is dreadful. Bacon is either undercooked or shrivelled and the less said about the scrambled eggs the better. The restaurant is again average with a limited menu. As for the rooms, they are bright and clean. The toilet is totally separate from the bathroom and baths are only available on the first three floors of the hotel.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Park Plaza County Hall London; City: London England; Review: The Park Plaza County Hall is a new hotel close to Waterloo Station in London. It is also close to the London Eye and Westminster. We stayed in a studio room which was fine - supplied with a microwave, crockery, cutlery etc. The studio room had an interesting layout - bedroom first then a small corridor which housed the kitchen and bathroom, then a small lounge area with sofa, desk and televsion. There is also a televsion in the bedroom area. Staff were pleasant but it is a very impersonal hotel obviously geared towards business. Breakfast was buffet style although omelettes and poached eggs could be ordered. I recommend ordering as the rest of the 'hot'' breakfast was lukewarm at best. Stay here only if you want somewhere close to the station or for business purposes. Internet available in rooms for a price and free on a computer in the lower floor of the hotel.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Rumours Luxury Villas and Spa; City: Muri Rarotonga Southern Cook Islands; Review: We travelled to Rarotonga to attend a wedding and were delighted that we had chosen to stay at Rumours; chosen after reading the reviews on tripadvisor. The villa was beautifully furnished and fully supplied. The view to the ocean was wonderful. There is no television but plenty of DVDs are available. Continental breakfast is brought to the villa every morning. Basic items for guests to make a cooked breakfast for themselves are also available. We used the barbecue provided on the deck area as well. There is also a very cold, private plunge pool at the front of the villa. Laptops are available and internet time can be purchased from the front office. Each member of staff was very friendly and helpful and we would definitely stay at Rumours again. I'd recommend hiring a car if you are staying at Rumours even although there is a round the island bus which stops nearby. Also snorkelling off the beach is not great - the water barely covers the stony area most of the day however a fifteen minute kayak ride (kayaks are supplied at every villa) takes you to a great snorkelling place almost opposite the Pacific Resort. The only item missing at Rumours is some shade on the patio.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Aitutaki Escape; City: Aitutaki Southern Cook Islands; Review: After a fantastic stay at Rumours in Rarotonga we were looking forward to another great week at Rumours of Escape in Aitutaki. The villas are beautiful with a fantastic bedroom and bathroom area. The private spa was great and we used it a lot. We also enjoyed the beach chairs at the end of our own pier. We tried snorkeling off the beach but hardly saw any fish. (Take a snorkeling trip with one of the island tour boats to see some fantastic coral and fish.)The views from the beach and the beautiful sunsets were amazing however the accommodation is not up to the standard set by the Rarotonga property. The front windows looking out to the beach are uncurtained – a deliberate design policy to allow guests to enjoy the views. Great during the day but at night it is dark and there is nothing to see! However the living area is all too visible from the beach at night, which is not a comfortable feeling. The Rumours brochure makes a point of how the only footprints you will see on the beach will be yours – this presumably excludes the motorcyclists who were ever present on the beach in the evening. Inside the villa during the day is fine – quality furnishings and well supplied however the lighting is atrocious. It is impossible to play board games on the table in the living area in the evening and to read you have to sit directly under one of the lamps. The two diagonally wall-mounted fans in the living area were very noisy and reminded me of sitting in the small prop aircraft that brought us to the island. Sadly even the cleaning was not up to the Rarotonga Rumours standard with water marks left in the bathroom and shower areas and most days shower caps and shampoos not replenished. Flowers in our villa were beautiful the day we arrived but were dead or dying and not removed by the end of our stay. Tanya and her husband were very friendly and helpful but seemed unconcerned with the noise generated by the building work (more villas are being erected), by the cockerels that gave us early morning wake up calls, by the music from the radios of nearby houses and by the goats kept by the family next door. All in all we enjoyed Aitutaki, its beautiful scenery and its friendly people but Rumours of Escape, at this early stage of its creation, does not live up to its hype.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Maplehurst Boutique Guest House; City: Galashiels Scottish Borders Scotland; Review: Maplehurst is a beautiful old house run by Derek and Linda as a bed and breakfast. The house is in a quiet location, the rooms are lovely and the breakfast superb. Derek and Linda are very friendly and very efficient. Parking is available on the premises and public transport nearby. If you are staying in Galashiels go for the best - Maplehurst.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Millennium Gloucester Hotel London Kensington; City: London England; Review: Despite mixed reviews on tripadvisor, we picked this hotel because of its good location. The lobby is impressive but carpets look tired and in need of replacment. Check in was fine. Despite being asked whether we wanted a double or twin beds ( we asked for a double) our allocated room had twin beds. The room was at the end of a very long warren of corridors which are badly in need of renovation. Back at reception, it wasn't the clerk's fault as the system showed twin beds. We were given an upgrade so quickly that I suspect this was not the first time that the system didn't work. Room was fine but noisy from the traffic outside. The system is also apparently unable to cope with names that are longer than five characters as the Welcome to the Room only displayed the first five letters of our name . We went downstairs but were unable to find the two restaurants we had been told about by the check in staff. Turned out they were at the nearby Millennium Bailey hotel. So back up to the room to get our outdoor clothes. As it was pouring rain we asked for an umbrella from the concierge. £10 deposit - not chargeable to the room. Had a very forgettable meal at the Olives restaurant which nevertheless cost us £75. In the morning tried to log on to the internet ( an adapter cost us £5 from the concierge)- no joy - on hold with an outside internet support provider until being told it was a loose connection in the wall. Still no joy. An engineer arrived and apparently it was my husband's work system which was the problem - despite the Gloucester being a preferred hotel for my husband's company! Newspapers ordered at check in did not arrive - phoned the concierge who brought one up ten minutes later then the second in another ten minutes. No laundry bag in the room and had to phone down for bath towels. Then the shower only gave us lukewarm water. The water problem was fixed promptly and the duty manager did come to the room to apologise to us. Brreakfast was chaotic with bacon and eggs taking a long time to replenish at the buffet table. Business centre and door staff were efficient and friendly. The location is really good - close to the underground, a Tesco express and several restaurants. Also near to Earls Court and Harrods.We had a much better meal - pub grub - at the Stanhope Arms just across the road from the Olives restaurant. We will not be going to the Millennium Gloucester again and my advice is to avoid this hotel. Despite its location there are much better alternative hotels in the area.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Prinsenhof Bruges; City: Bruges West Flanders Province; Review: Our three night stay in the Hotel Prinsenhof in Bruges was great. The staff were very friendly, the hotel was in an excellent location and the rooms were very good. It's only a five minute walk to the centre of Bruges and anothe five to the further away attractions. Our room was lovely with a four poster bed, wardrobe, dresser, chair and table. En-suite facilites were large. Complimentary fruit and water were provided. The room also has a minibar. Free internet access is available from 8 am until 10 pm, in an open area on the first floor. Breakfast was lovely with a friendly waitress who spoke several languages fluently. Breakfast is served in a small room and the tables are close together which could be a problem if the hotel is full. The communal lounge area is very pleasant with newspapers provided. Our only problem was with the air conditioning/heating which is centrally controlled - the room was far too hot and we had to open the windows - not a problem in good weather! Be aware that the bar is three chairs around a serving hatch. The parking area is small but visitors do not need a car in Bruges. We would definitley stay in this hotel if visiting ruges again - it is a real gem.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Sofitel Marseille Vieux Port; City: Marseille Bouches du Rhone Provence Alpes Cote d Azur; Review: The Sofitel in Marseille's Vieux-Port is a good base for a couple of days in Marseille. Friendly reception staff greet all travellers and nothing seems too much trouble for the excellent concierge. We had a superior room overlooking the harbour - very comfortable with a large shower but no bath. The view from the room was spectacular. Don't ever hire a large car in France - we had a small car and it barely managed to get through the narrow parking area! We did not use the restaurant in the hotel but the bar food was good although pricey. The hotel is a good fifteen minutes walk to the old port - very hot in July!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Cape Lodge; City: Yallingup Margaret River Region Western Australia; Review: Cape Lodge in Yallingup is a luxury lodge which we enjoyed but it needs to be revamped.We stayed in a spa suite which was comfortable with a lovely spa bath but the decor was very bland. There is no parking in front of the suites and it is at least a ten minute walk to the restaurant from some of the rooms - fine on a nice night - not so good when it is raining. There is a swimming pool and tennis courts on site and walks around the grounds are really interesting. It is very quiet despite being on the busy Caves Road which of course gives access to lots of cellar door tastings, potteries, art galleries etc. Staff at the front desk were efficient but not particularly helpful. Food in the restaurant was amazing albeit limited. The menu was advertised as changing daily and although there were different items each night, the core of the menu remained the same. Staff were friendly but perhaps more training in service and knowledge of the menu would enhance the experience. Breakfast was really good each morning with lots of choice. We stayed during Christmas and the Christmas Day lunch was fantastic however the hamper delivered to our room for Christmas supper ( the restaurant was closed Christmas evening) left a lot to be desired. It was mainly filled with leftovers from lunch plus what looked like leftovers from Christmas Eve and it was not good. We will stay at Cape Lodge again on our next visit to Yallingup - there are no other lodges in the area which can compare - especially with the restaurant - but a makeover in room decor, staff training and a general shake up in complacency would encourage more people to shell out for the expensive tariff.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Colleith Lodge; City: Tairua Coromandel Peninsula Waikato Region North Island; Review: We spent four nights here during the Rugby World Cup in New Zealand. Tairua is a two hour scenic drive from Auckland. Colleith Lodge is a purpose built bed and breakfast establishment set in a lovely garden area with fantastic sea and river views from its bedrooms. Maureen and Colin are terrific hosts and made us feel very welcome as guests in their home. The bedrooms are spotlessly clean and well appointed, with en-suites and a small patio. There is a swimming pool and spa pool outside all the bedrooms which would be great during summer. Breakfast was sustantial- beautiful platter of freshly cut fruit ( the majority grown on the property), stewed fruit, juices, yoghurt, cereal and grain toast followed by a cooked meal. Maureen's omlettes were terrific and my husband enjoyed his perfectly cooked poached eggs with bacon and mushrooms. Canapes and drinks on the patio at six pm were a lovely touch and we thoroughly enjoyed the chat around the table. Both Maureen and Colin are very knowledgeable about the whole area and advised us on different aspects of the Coromandel and Tauranga. Colleith Lodge is expensive but worth it. It is a very special place and the best B&b that we have ever stayed in.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Ashcroft Farmhouse; City: Livingston West Lothian Scotland; Review: Ashcroft Farmhouse is about 25 minutes drive from Edinburgh, 20 minutes from Edinburgh Airport and10 minutes from the Livingston shopping centre and designer outlet. Hosts Elizabeth and Derek are friendly and very keen to help guests make the most of their holiday. What Elizabeth doesn't know about the surrounding area isn't worth knowing! Rooms at the farmhouse are spacious and comfortable with lots of drawers and hanging space. The en-suites are smallish but with every amenity. There is also a nice lounge with TV, DVD's and books on offer. Elizabeth's breakfasts are lovely with her home-made sausages a real highlight. A very comfortable bed and breakfast establishment with off road parking and easy access to nearby restaurants. It's a real home from home.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Eagles Nest; City: Russell Bay of Islands Northland Region North Island; Review: Eagles Nest is an easy three hour drive from Auckland, just outside the lovely village of Russell. Make sure that you don't take the Russell Road, it is long, winding and very narrow - stick to State Highway 1 to Kawakawa, then to Opua and the ferry to Russell. We booked the First Light villa which was excellent -very spacious with lots of glass which enabled panoramic views of the magnificent Bay of Islands. The bedroom is on a mezzanine floor with a fantastic shower area and a great view. First Light has a fully fitted kitchen. Items for a do-it-yourself breakfast were supplied daily - bacon, eggs, tomatoes, two varieties of yoghurt and three varieties of juices. Bread, tea and coffee were also provided and a huge platter of fruit was replenished daily. Cheese, ice cream, wine, beer and mineral water are also available in the villas but these incur extra charges. Eagles Nest bottled water is free. Villas are serviced daily but a guest may request no servicing for even greater privacy. A province-wide power outage, which shorted out the television, happened after our first night and the assistant manager William was brilliant. He settled us in another villa, so I could continue watching a tennis game . When it became clear that the television could not be fixed quickly we were moved to the Sacred Space villa for the remaining three days of our stay. This villa is huge and could sleep eight people. A massive master bedroom with even better views than from First Light was the icing on the cake together with three other bedrooms ( two with en-suite), an outdoor heated swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna. The gourmet kitchen, home theatre and beautiful Oriental furniture added to the fabulous atmosphere. William booked a taxi to take us into Russell for our evening meal and when it didn't turn up, he drove us to the restaurant and ensured that we were given a complimentary bottle of wine with our meal. I later found out that only one taxi was available in Russell during this time. A personal chef is available for $65 per hour, plus food costs. Excellent menus to choose from including a seafood BBQ. We used the service once, ordering hot and cold canapes. the chef arranged everything beautifully but all the canapes were cold - the chef told us that the hot canapes are only cooked prior to serving. When I mentioned this to William, he said this was not correct and took the whole amount off our bill. All in all a fantastic, luxurious resort with complete privacy with unobtrusive but excellent service.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hilton Auckland; City: Auckland Central North Island; Review: We stayed three nights at the Hilton in a de-luxe harbour view room. The views from our room were very good and we enjoyed sitting on our seventh floor balcony watching the busy harbour below us. The room itself was large with a comfortable king size bed, desk, office chair and easy chair. It is equipped with a fridge, tea and coffee making faciliites and an iron and ironing board. The bathroom is spacious with a bath and separate shower and plenty of space for toiletries. Our travel agent must have mentioned that we were celebrating a special anniversary as a bottle of champagne and a decorated plate of hand made chocolates were in our room when we arrived, which we really appreciated. Reception and bell staff were friendly and polite and Gustav, the concierge, was extremely helpful. However the food was a let-down. We did not eat dinner at the restaurant but did have breakfast there as well as a room service meal. Breakfast is buffet style with an egg/omlette station. The omlettes were very good but the buffett dishes of bacon were empty when we went to get some. I pointed this out to staff, who should surely have been monitoring the dishes in the first place. The bacon was not replenished until after we had finished our omlettes and several other guests were unhappy at not getting their breakfast bacon. The scrambled egg dish was also empty and at least three guests complained about this as well.This is not what I would expect from a Hilton property. As for the room service meal - my husband was happy with his minute steak sandwich but my burger was bland and tasted as if the chef had never heard of the word seasoning. All in all, we would stay at the Hilton again - the room was good and the hotel's location near the Viaduct ( lots of restaurants and pubs) and the ferry terminal is excellent.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Halekulani Hotel; City: Honolulu Oahu Hawaii; Review: Just been reading the reviews of the Halekulani and interestingly, one reviewer said it was not a patch on the Four Seasons on Maui. We stayed on both properties and I would rate the Halekulani higher than the Four Seasons on Maui ( Four Seasons on the Big Island is in another class altogether!). It just goes to show how subjective this website is - it is always good to get different opinions. We stayed in an Oceanfront room which was excellent - great views over the pool and Waikiki beach. Breakfast on the lanai watching the surfers was a great way to start the day. The room was a good size ( very similar to the FS in Maui) with a spacious bathroom. I would suggest the addition of an ironing board and iron would be good ( available on request) and a kettle for making tea would be great. Coffee making facilities are provided. Service was professional and consistent throughout the hotel with special kudos to the bell, room service and concierge staff. There are three restaurants to choose from - my favourite is Orchids. The beach area is very small but it is easy to walk to a larger area of Waikiki - better still hire a car and go to some of the other wonderful ( and quieter) beaches around Oahu. The Halekulani is within easy walking distance of shops and restaurants and there is an ABC store ( to fill up your hotel mini-bar) about 50 yards away. After four earlier visits staying in different hotels, the Halekulani will be our only stop in Honolulu next time.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Mandarin Oriental Singapore; City: Singapore; Review: We often travel to Singapore but this was our first stay at the Mandarin Oriental. Firstly excellent service from the bell staff, concierge, wait staff and housekeeping. Definitely five star with staff ready to go the extra mile. Our room was large, spotlessly clean and comfortable with a great view of the Singapore Flyer, Marina Bay Sands and the Gardens by the Bay. Wifi is available at different rates. We paid $S26 per day to connect up to six devices. The location is good without being great - 10 minutes walk to the Esplanade, a little further to City Hall. The Marina Shopping Centre is right next door. Taxis are readily available. The hotel is a little dark and slightly dated. Eating and drinking are well catered for with Morton's Steakhouse, Morton's Bar, Axis bar ( comfortable and quiet), Bay@5 ( outdoors) next to the pool, a Japanese restaurant, a Chinese restaurant and the Melt Restaurant ( lots of different cuisines). Highly recommended.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Grand Hyatt Muscat; City: Muscat Muscat Governorate; Review: Visited the Mokha Cafe at the Grand Hyatt Muscat for Christmas Day brunch. Tables were set out on the lawn as well as inside and on the patio. The food was very good and there was lots of it. Seafood, sushi, roasts, vegetarian dishes, mouth watering desserts and an ice cream point. Food stations were positioned in several places so it was never too far to go for the next course. Children were well-catered for with a tent of special food although they were welcome to try the adult food staions as well. A large TV screen, face painting and a visit from Santa kept the children happy all afternoon. Music was provuded by a female DJ who played a good mixture of easy listening sings and Christmas music. The only slight letdown were the staff who we had to repeatedly ask for our drink orders. It seemed as if casual staff had been brought in for Christmas as there was a marked difference in the levels of professionalism between staff members.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Maryculter House; City: Maryculter Aberdeenshire Scotland; Review: During a recent holiday, we went to the restaurant at Maryculter House Hotel. Beautiful surroundings next to the River Dee. The hotel and restaurant are housed in beautiful old buildings. No wonder it is a favourite place for weddings. Food was really good. The Cullen Skink soup was wonderful - best I have ever tasted. The steak and mushroom pie for my main course was rich, fragrant and tasted really good. And where to start with the desserts? Four of us chose a different dessert each and mixed and matched.Desserts were all beautifully presented. The apple crumble was divine but did I like that better than the creme brulee, lemon mousse or sticky toffee pudding? Staff were pleasant and helpful and we will definitely be going back. Hang onto that chef!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Qualia Resort; City: Hamilton Island Whitsunday Islands Queensland; Review: Welcome: Very good, bags are collected at the airport while guests are taken to Qualia in an air-conditioned van. Cold towels and water are available. Greeted at the resort with a glass of champagne or orange juice. Check-in and orientation is done sitting on sofas looking out to sea. Pavillion: We chose a windward pavillion and it was excellent. Great views from every window, lots of space, furniture not that comfortable but okay, large bath and shower. Good deck area and we made full use of the plunge pool. All soft drinks in the Pavillion fridge and in the restaurants are free. Staff: All staff were friendly and helpful without exception. Special mention to Alex and Matthew who were excellent. Housekeeping: The pavillion was spotless. Transport: Four Mercedes vans (six seats in the back) is used as transport to and from the airport, to and from restaurants and for travel anywhere on the island. Drivers are knowledgeable about the island. Golf Buggy: Supplied to every guest. Great for getting around. Long Pavillion: We had dinner twice in the Long Pavillion - excellent. Breakfast dishes such as the omlettes and poached eggs were really good but there were some problems - see below. Gym and pool: Well-equipped gym available 24 hours. Large pool with a few cabanas, lots of towels provided. Never seemed busy. Atomic sunset cruise: Pleasant cruise, nice sunset, lots of champagne, canapes so-so. Crew excellent. Whitehaven Wonder: I naively thought we would be going to the inlet part of Whitehaven which is often shown in travel magazines but apparently only a few boats have permits to go there. The trip out to the beach is more speedboat than cruise but that's fine. Boat is moored about 100m offshore and guests transferred to the beach by dinghy. Good lunch and a bottle of champagne provided. Our skipper Steve was excellent. Small beach, fine white sand and lots of people but really not worth the money. Go with the helicopter trip instead. Resort: Very quiet and exclusive. Great place to relax. Staff turnover seems to be high. At this point five stars seems a no brainer however there were a few problems, taken individually the 'problems' probably didn't amount to too much but collectively, given the reputation and cost of the resort, had me dropping Qualia to four stars. Housekeeping: I had to phone to request items which housekeeping did not leave on different days. Items were brought promptly however I did not expect to have to phone for teabags, toilet rolls or towels. Transport: The vans could do with another step. Difficult to get in and out of for guests with mobility issues. Also despite having transport arranged and confirmed, guest services had to phone for a driver for us on three occasions. Guest services: I asked for information on insurance for the golf buggy and was told there was an excess amount to be paid in the event of an accident. I asked how much and was told that they would get back to me - no answer. We arranged; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Ritz London; City: London England; Review: Very disappointed in The Ritz. It has a good location but we felt it was living on its past reputation rather than providing five star service and surroundings. We were travelling with American friends who were on a once-in-a-lifetime trip and The Ritz was a letdown for them as well as us. Check in was good. Our room and the decor in general throughout the hotel could do with a facelift. However our room was spacious and the amenities good. At reception we were asked what time we would like the turndown service and we specified between 7-8pm. When we came back from dinner at 10:15 - the maid was in the room! Breakfast was awful - service was slow, waiters busy chatting to each other rather than attending to guests ( not just our table). Selection of buffet items was reasonable but not great. Cooked breakfasts were fine but with no attempt at good presentation. Keys can be left at the conceirge desk but nobody asked for our names when we collected our keys. Given the level of security on people entering the hotel, we found this strange. ( By the way, from our observations - dress well and security will not challenge you. Dress casually in a tourist style and it's a different story) We placed a do not disturb notice on our door one day and the phone rang about an hour later. Apparently, staff had tried to deliver dry cleaning but there was a do not disturb notice on the door which obviously did not apply to phone calls! Staff we encountered were good especially Mark at the conceirge desk and John from security. We will not be returning to The Ritz.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Mullaloo Beach Hotel; City: Mullaloo Joondalup Greater Perth Western Australia; Review: The Driftwood restaurant at the Mullaloo Beach Hotel has a great location opposite Mullaloo beach. We visited this restaurant for Sunday breakfast and were not impressed. The decor is supposed to be 'beachy' but just looks tacky. The seats are uncomfortable. Service was slow - we were informed there was a 20 minute wait for coffee, no-one mentioned the 25 minute wait for a pot of tea. Service was also patchy. Two of the girls were friendly, one young man, who seemed to have only basic English, gave the impression of being bored and couldn't be bothered with customers. Food - I had pancakes with crispy proscuitto and maple syrup. ($18) Plated nicely but the pancakes were thick and dry, two strips of crispy proscuitto and two strips of not so crispy thick proscuitto. A small amount of syrup was included, I requested more and it was brought promptly. My friend had the nasi goreng ($24) which was served with a dollop of sambal oleck on the plate. Apparently the idea is to serve bland food and the customer can add spice by using the sambal oleck. Wheelchair access is via an elevator from either the basement car park or street level and then moving through the public bar to the restaurant and hotel reception. Unfortunately the public bar is closed on a Sunday morning so acess is via the elevator, down about eight stairs then up another eight or so stairs. Difficult for me with limited mobility - impossible for wheelchairs.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Orewa Beachcomber; City: Orewa North Island; Review: We chose this motel on the basis of good trip advisor reviews but unfortunately had a different experience. Positives: It has a good location, ten minutes walk to the centre of town. Walk accross the road to the beach. A couple of cafes two minutes away. There was plenty of hot water for the showers. The receptionist was pleasant when she checked us in and she showed us to our room. Negatives: The heat pump seemed to have a mind of its own - the room would just be heating up and it pumped out cold air right over the bed. The windows were old and draughty - impossible to sit on the couch without drawing the curtains to keep out the draught. The security chain on the French doors was broken. Net curtains which cover the French doors at the front of the unit are at least a foot too long and are a tripping hazard The provided wifi card said it was a secure network . My ipad told me it was unsecured I preferred to believe Apple and didn'tuse the wifi. A two set nest of tables is provided. However when we pulled out the bottom one, it was thick with dust and there were lots of ring marks left presumably by previous guests. However when I left a (motel provided) card on the window stating 'No Service' - our room was serviced! As I checked out I mentioned the above points to the gentleman on reception. His only two comments were, 'But the air conditioning is new' and 'Thank you'.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Villa Orewa; City: Orewa North Island; Review: Beautiful Mediterranean style bed and breakfast across the road from Orewa Beach. Five minutes walk into Orewa Village with a few cafes and takeaways en-route. We stayed in the Santorini Room which has beautiful views. Room was spotless with a comfortable bed, lots of books and games, complimentary beer and milk in the fridge and a microwave next to the sink. Breakfast was on the deck - sun shone for all of five minutes but it was pleasant even although we had to wear jackets. Breakfast was cereal, fruit and yoghurt with orange juice followed by a choice of fried or scrambled eggs with toast. This B&B would get top marks except for the spiral staircase leading to the third floor rooms. It looks lovely but it is hard to carry suitcases up and down the staircase.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Harborside Hotel Spa and Marina; City: Bar Harbor Mount Desert Island Maine; Review: The Harborside Hotel has a fantastic location right in the heart of Bar Harbor - close to restaurants and shopping. Our room was on the ground floor with access to the garden and a lovely view. The room was a good size and clean. There is a laundry on the premises. However the staff leave something to be desired. There is no dedicated concierge and staff on duty had no idea about local events or the local theatre if it wasn’t on Google! Our only other complaint is that the lobby is too dark to read a book or newspaper.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Simple Wishes Signature Hands Free Pumping Bra, Patented, Pink, XS-Large; Brand: Simple Wishes; Review: I've been using this pumping bra ( no it's not meant to be worn as a regular bra btw) for almost 8 months now & can't imagine not having it-it's that much of a necessity. For a few weeks I used the Medela one sold at big baby stores --you know it's white & simply has two holes cut in front & you'd better hope the holes line up right for you & that the tightness is correct because *that* bra is not adjustable! Wish I'd know about this bra before buying two sizes of the Medela. Basically : This bra lets you pump *hands free*, is hugely *adjustable* (because your breast size/weight will likely vary during your adventures in breastfeeding), is *comfortable* ( though if you need to add the additional fabric panel in front to make it larger the zipper on that panel is not covered with fabric like the zipper on the main bra, so that bugged my skin at first until I guess I adjusted to it because it feels fine now) and it *lasts/ holds up well *over the months. Too bad it looks like they've gone up a few dollars in price, so shop around for best price.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Western Chief Kids' Waterproof Rain Boots That Light Up Each Step; Brand: ; Review: Cute & my three year olds loves them BUT yes as other reviews stated the straps will break. :( . I have twins & my son got the monster truck light up ones & they too have a broken strap- happened the first time he wore them so definitely a design flaw in my opinion. Also had to exchange our first pair of girl's blooms boots as the left boot was VERY hard to get to light up. The new pair lights up fine & both my kids love their boots- broken straps and all. I however will not be reordering this particular style/ model again due to the straps.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Saucony Boys Baby Ride 7 Sneaker (Toddler/Little Kid); Brand: Saucony; Review: Great shoe! Love that it comes in wide for my preschool-age son. Orange color near sole on side of shoe comes off a bit after a few weeks -it is "painted" on over the white, but besides that this is a good, very lightweight & flexible shoe.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Western Chief Monster Crusher Rain Boot (Toddler/Little Kid); Brand: ; Review: Cute but strap broke upon first wearing! Won't reorder this style again. (Wrote a longer review for another pair I ordered of the abstract blooms boots- same thing- cute boots but weak straps); Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Skechers USA Men's Urbantracks Cowens Slip-On; Brand: ; Review: Good looking, comfortable shoe! The Mr. usually wears a 12 & had the old version of this shoe in a 12, but for some reason had to exchange these for a size 13-so fyi these run small in his opinion. The old ones did eventually get a tear in the side, as I think others have said, but he wore them a lot for 3ish years before that happened.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: HALO Big Kids SleepSack Lightweight Knit Wearable Blanket, Pink, 2-3T; Brand: Halo; Review: Love sleep sacks! These are great for toddlers and kids that are walking or just want their feet free. I believe these are made out of polyester while the smaller sleep sacks for babies are cotton or fleece. Yes, the polyester does pill up a bit after washing repeatedly, but I would still buy these again although I do wish they had come in cotton. If your kids have trouble sleeping they may be too hot keep in mind the cooler the room (within reason 65 to 68 is good) the better the sleep in general. Just an FYI that we could've used earlier.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: JazzyToes Bright Mary Janes Baby Socks; Brand: Jazzy Toes; Review: Super cute! Loved having these for my daughter when she was little. They do tend to run small in my opinion but my daughter is on the longer/ taller side. I washed these and lay them flat or hung them to dry as it helps retain the anti-slip rubber words on the bottom and keeps the socks looking nicer much longer.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Bali Women's Comfort Revolution Shaping Wirefree Bra with Smart Sizes; Brand: ; Review: I love this bra! It is super comfy! I usually only wear it at home, mainly because I would like a little more support with an underwire when outside the house. Or maybe because I'm vain and an underwire bra does look a little better. 'But we all know under wires are not as comfortable. (Well at least I haven't found one to be, as even the best underwire bra still feels great to take off at the end of the day!) This bra is very very comfortable and you can nap in it or sleep in it and it still feels great. No, it is not the most attractive bra, ( not "sexy") but is a very functional one. I have it in three colors after finding it for a great price on Amazon. So make sure you watch the prices as they sometimes fluctuate. But definitely better price here than in the stores- at least when I was looking. They do run a little big and yes the straps could be a tad shorter in my opinion - (and as other reviewers have stated) they are *not* adjustable, but there is the traditional three levels of tightness hooks in the back. I also like that this bra is lined and has very thin but large foam cups in the front to cover nipples and much of the front of the breast. Not that I'm anti-nipples LOL I just like the look better and it also provides a little bit of shape (very subtle) if one of your breasts is slightly bigger or smaller.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Saucony Baby Ride 7 Running Shoe (Toddler/Little Kid); Brand: Saucony; Review: Seems to be a good quality shoe. Saucony make some nice, lightweight, flexible true running shoes for kids (and adults). I got these for my daughter and another pair in a different color for my son. My son's have worn off the color a little bit on the outside edge near the bottom but besides that they are holding up well for my preschool age twins. Love that they come in wide for my son as well.

I usually only wear it at home, mainly because I would like a little more support with an underwire when outside the house. Or maybe because I'm vain and an underwire bra does look a little better. 'But we all know under wires are not as comfortable. (Well at least I haven't found one to be, as even the best underwire bra still feels great to take off at the end of the day!) This bra is very very comfortable and you can nap in it or sleep in it and it still feels great. No, it is not the most attractive bra, ( not "sexy") but is a very functional one. I have it in three colors after finding it for a great price on Amazon. So make sure you watch the prices as they sometimes fluctuate. But definitely better price here than in the stores- at least when I was looking. They do run a little big and yes the straps could be a tad shorter in my opinion - (and as other reviewers have stated) they are *not* adjustable, but there is the traditional three levels of tightness hooks in the back. I also like that this bra is lined and has very thin but large foam cups in the front to cover nipples and much of the front of the breast. Not that I'm anti-nipples LOL I just like the look better and it also provides a little bit of shape (very subtle) if one of your breasts is slightly bigger or smaller.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

The only negative for this is that the drawer 'feels' flimsy and super cheap. Was expecting something a bit more sturdy, like hard plastic or metal, but it seems to be a thick cardboard of sorts with a faux-felt lining. It's a great price so probably should have expected this. It's not a big thing and doesn't detract terribly from the product as a whole. Would recommend; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | amazon_Home_and_Kitchen |

Title: Never Been Kissed VHS; Brand: Drew Barrymore; Review: I saw this movie in the theater just after I finished college. Anyone who was nerdy and less than stellar in high school popularity could find something to appreciate in Never Been Kissed. Drew Barrymore beautifully portrays Josie Geller, a brilliant, yet past-haunted, copy editor. I often watch the movie even when it comes on cable--and even though living vicariously through Josie Geller's high school experiences is painful. Yes, being older now, I do see how it's a little predictable, but it made a mark on me. I became a copy editor because of this movie. I chuckle, though, that Josie's voiceover toward the end uses a dangling modifier: "A geek to the core, most of my childhood years were spent doing extra homework I requested from the teacher." Even so, a delightful story.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Melody of Oblivion: Monotone; Brand: ; Review: I adore dystopian sci-fi movies, and this one gave me fun elements to work withcomplete with the not totally unexpected but nevertheless enjoyable twist. It also has artificial intelligence, alien influence, and advanced technology. The film incorporates beautiful visuals and relates a tale of both profound, cosmic sadness and hope that allows humanity's best aspects to shine through. Always I remind myself that Tom Cruise may have gone totally wonko, but that doesn't mean his movies aren't still good. And pretty much anything with Morgan Freeman has to be restaurant quality. I kept hoping that we'd get to see some part of the human civilization to be set up on Titan, but the story is confined to Earth and immediate vicinity. Good times.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Abrupt Decision; Brand: Steve Callahan; Review: On the basis of being a dog lover, I was drawn to the film. But even though stilted and wooden in places, and decidedly low budget, the story nonetheless has poignant parts and unexpected moments of tenderness that got to me. (Who would've expected anything substantial to come from the gun-shooting neighbor lady, after all?) We see the struggles of relationships (which happen to everyone, regardless of orientation), challenges of dealing with family death, and finding meaning in life by devoting oneself to a worthy cause. All in all, it's worth watching.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Contact; Brand: Jodie Foster; Review: When people talk about how the book is better than the movie, I almost always agree. Here's the one instance in which I don't. As much as I loved Carl Sagan's books, and admire his life's work of getting science the respect it deserves, I like the film better here. First, the book and film diverge markedly. Taking a novel of that complexity and scope and realistically folding it into a watchable, marketable film would be impossible. So of course the movie has to make some hard choices. And I like them. Having just one character make the journey in the Machine worked for the film, whereas the concept of an entire group, as happens in the book, would be hard to portray cinematically with any quality. Back in college, a girlfriend of mine told me she had seen the movie and did not care for it at all. It threatened her faith. Fair enough. I wouldn't have expected many students at my Southern Baptist college to appreciate Carl Sagan. Few certainly would have approved of any plot that features an atheist as the protagonist. But at its heart, the movie is about finding the truthno matter how painful it is or how much it shatters our preconceived notions of ourselves or the universe we live in. Even now, whenever this movie comes on cable, I stop what I'm doing to watch it. Jodie Foster performed brilliantly, and whenever I go back to read the book, I picture her as Ellie Arroway.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sordid Lives; Brand: Delta Burke; Review: Though watching it was sometimes painful, I nevertheless liked it. A friend recommended it when he learned that I grew up in West Texas, the setting of this movie. It awkwardly but accurately draws not-terribly-exaggerated caricatures of the people who live there. My hometown, Abilene, even got a mention.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Stargate - The Ark of Truth; Brand: Ben Browder; Review: Nicely wrapping up the events from seasons 9 and 10 of the series, this movie is among my most cherished. The series that spawned it has become one of my most beloved collections. The story line with the Ori and the fight against single-mindedly-determined fundamentalist analogs was thrilling to watch unfold. My favorite part is the final confrontation between Adria and Morgan le Fay. Though it more or less rehashes a similar battle between Anubis and Oma de Sala, the scene is, even so, remarkable. True, the movie rushes to a conclusion as it tries to tie everything together. Originally, this story was to have been the entire 11th season of the show, but other factors intervened. Nevertheless, I love the movie and feel that it captures the best of humanity: resilience, hard work, commitment, even faith. The soundtrack is phenomenal.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Jumpin' Jack Flash VHS; Brand: Whoopi Goldberg; Review: This has been one of my favorite movies since I was a kid. My mom rented it back in the 1980s, and for some reason, seeing Terry Doolittle's quirky personality called to me on an instinctual level. That's probably because I'm quirky, too, and have a great deal of fun just being myself without trying to conform overmuch. The cast includes some big names (e.g., Annie Potts, Carole Kane), and the story itself, however farfetched, is a treat. Watching Terry break into classified computer files and deal with decidedly outdated-looking technology is fun. And it has the predictable happy ending, but you'll laugh a lot on the way to getting there. My favorite part, I think, is when she talks her way into the British consulate by lip-synching the Supremes. Good times.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Mulligans; Brand: Thea Gill; Review: I enjoyed watching the film, but it has that hard-to-overcome sense of feeling like an after-school special. Writing, acting, and production quality definitely aren't up to the standard one would expect from something you pay money to watch. Even so, the story has nuggets of truth in it that might help some wayward soul who's struggling to find his or her true identity. And the movie does convey (although not in any realistic sense) that finding that identity later in lifeamid existing relationships not necessarily congruent with that identityhas high personal costs.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The 10 Year Plan; Brand: Jack Turner; Review: I'm never quite sure how well these films are going to go. Usually the acting or writingthough passableisn't of the caliber you might expect from a professionally produced movie. However. I took a chance on this one and loved it. Fully expecting a movie with the look and feel of an after-school special, I've never been more pleased to be dead wrong. I enjoyed this film thoroughly and plan to watch it again. Many gay guys, including me, can identify with Myles and his self-defeating, ceaseless quest for love from the mythical perfect man. But we get to watch the pain (largely self-inflicted) that he experiences, and we can empathize. Of course, the characters are sometimes drawn as little more than caricatures of themselves, but even so, we can relate. Inevitably, the story is predictable and at times cloying. But if watching it gives even one person hope, or reduces cynicism about gay life by even the merest fraction, it's worth watching.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Role/Play; Brand: Steve Callahan; Review: I had watched it several years ago and recently bought it to watch again. Although it's decidedly low-budget, the acting is better than what you might expect from an independent genre film. With the plot partially related to Proposition 8 in California, watching the film now that we have marriage equality in the U.S. was rewarding. Good times.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: PRAXIS; Brand: Tom Macy; Review: In some ways, I really liked the film because it explored the story of a troubled young man who finds himself. Touching, tender moments are present. In other ways, though, it was striving for depth that didn't quite materialize. The movie randomly repeats the same scenes as a way to force the viewer to acknowledge their importance (the cover photo of the two naked men hugging is one example). As soon as I read "an elusive woman" in the description, I figured it was going to be something weird. And it turns out that both the man and the elusive woman are just other manifestations of the protagonist. Behold the depth. Far removed from its cousin, the Klingons' key energy production facility, the movie was basically writing checks that it couldn't cash. (And now they're probably coming for my gay card.); Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Contadora Is for Lovers; Brand: Vincent DePaul; Review: The story had the potential to be good. Unfortunately, the shoddy writing and editing made it just north of unwatchable. For instance, in one scene the married couple are talking excitedly about the friendliness of the resort staff. Then the couple enter their room and proceed to repeat that conversation word for word. Clearly, one scene was to have been edited out, but that didn't happen. The sound quality also was uneven at best, with less-than-stellar lighting. Implausibilities and plot contrivances abound. How often in movies like this does one half of the straying pair magically get some excuse to be away from the other half for an extended period? "Oh, go without me, honey. You two go on and tour the whole island in what becomes an overnight trip while I do something unspecified. Only hours later will I realize that, hey, something here isn't right." And the tour guide's completely predictable "Oh, maybe I don't know the island as well as I thoughtlooks like we're lost" approach was neither fresh nor original. Cue the 1970s porn music. And then, oddly enough, the woman gets over her feelings of betrayal and then the mnage trois commences in earnesthowever unrealistically. The three become friends, interspersed with minor conflicts and drama. The gay tribunal will no doubt revoke my membership card for not automatically giving this and all other gay-themed films five stars, but so be it.; Rating: 1.0/5.0 | amazon_Movies_and_TV |

Given the interaction history of a user with hotels as follows:
Title: Leeden Hotel; City: Guangzhou Guangdong; Review: I want to write a review for this hotel, because this hotel caused me lots of trouble and their business practice is unethical. Maybe it was Chinese business practice, but it is not acceptable in the US. I made a reservation for 3 nights for Leeden hotel through their website, and provided my credit card information, and it was confirmed. I must check whether they charged the room to my credit card or not. When I arrived in Guangzhou, I was informed that they cannot honor my reservation, and it was cancelled. No rooms are available. Apparently they cancelled my reservation while I am traveling. It created lots of trouble and anxiety for me and my family. Something about this hotel,.,, This hotel cannot be trusted.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk; City: Chuo Fukuoka Fukuoka Prefecture Kyushu; Review: This hotel is huge, busy, and often crowded. Although the hotel is huge with wide open reception area, the rooms are small for the price I paid - but then this is Japan. Breakfast was included, but it was just OK, and it could be better. The hotel has restaurants, but they are pricey, so I usulaly went out for meals. But surprisingly, there aren't too many nearby. The service was just OK, but I think it was because the place was too crowded with many toursts, and too busy. It is a good hotel. But I expected more for the price I paid.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Crowne Plaza Bratislava; City: Bratislava Bratislava Region; Review: Overall, I liked this hotel. Cons: - Outside, it looks old and needs some renovation. - Inside, the lobby is dark, old, and it definitely needs some updating. It was not very inviting. Pros: - The rooms are clean, bright, and updated. It was very comfortable. - The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. In my case, they went out of their way to help me with anything. - Breakfast was included, and they offered excellent breakfast buffet. - The room rate was reasonable. Overall. I liked the hotel, and this is the hotel of my choice when I am in Bratislava.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hilton Garden Inn Frankfurt Airport; City: Frankfurt Hesse; Review: I usually stay here for overnight stay for connecting flights to other cities in Europe. The reasons are: - Rooms are clean and nice. - Room rate is reasonable or affordable - It is not a luxury hotel, but all the necessary things/functions are there. The hotel has one restaurant with reasonable prices, but they can use more helping hands - the workers seem too busy to attend customers' needs. The food was good for simple dinner (nothing fancy), which is good enough for me. I don't want to pay high hotel price for dinner.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Grand Hyatt Shanghai; City: Shanghai; Review: It was a very nice hotel. Pros: - Very clean and nice rooms. - Service is good, if not spectacular - Near IFC mall where you can find many restaurants to eat - This hotel has a good view of Shanghai city (it is a high building) Cons: - It is about one hour drive from the Pudong airport (taxi; about 170 RMB) - High room rate - The hotel has 3-4 restaurants, but they are on the expensive side.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Crowne Plaza Belgrade; City: Belgrade; Review: This hotel is supposed to be 4 start hotel, and it probably deserves 4 star. The hotel seems to be trying hard to satisfy the customer, and to keep the hotel in the 4 star category. It is a good 4-star hotel, but I took one star off for the following reasons. 1. I stayed in the club roon with lounge access. But the lounge was closed, because the hotel was using it for conference/meeting or seminar. It seemed a busy week for the hotel, because there were several meetings going on at the hotel. But did the hotel have to use the lounge for the meeting to make extra money? What about customers who reserved the room with the expectation to use the lounge??? I would undertsand if it was for renovation or repair - it can happen. The 4 start hotel should use the lounge only for the guests. The hotel management displayed a very poor taste. They told me I could use the bar downstairs. The bar provided the minimum service, but they did not seemed happy to serve me, and always checking my identity - I did not like it at all. 2. The shower in the room was wonderful. But the water temperature changes to hot and cold without warning, so you get very vbrief shots of cold and hot water. Other people had the same problem. 3. The hotel needs to improve smoking and non smoking policy/areas. Some people faintly smelled smoking in non smoking room. In the lobby, the smokingand non smoking areas were divided, but boh are in wide open area and next to each other. So you can smell smoking - in reality, the smokers are sitting next to you, and smoking.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Courtyard Tokyo Station; City: Chuo Tokyo Tokyo Prefecture Kanto; Review: Ojectively, this hotel should be in 2 - 3 star category, albeit its small room size, but for the price they charge and the service I get. I rate one star. I did not like this hotel, and I believe that there are better alternatives. 1. Rooms Even by Japanese standard, the room is very small for the price you pay. I was in the upgraded room for premium members, but still very small. Another issue was the room was too bright. I was lying on the bed to rest a bit, the lights hurt my eyes. Other things: cheap furnitures, no wall decorations, looking very barren, Motel 6 looks. The only good thing was that the room was clean. 2. Location Many people noted its convenient location. While it is near Tokyo station, getting to the hotel from the station is a challenge for first timers. Finding the exit for the hotel is not easy, and the signs at the staion is very confusing. It is a big station, so you need to walk 10 -20 min inside the station to get to the exit, depending on where your train stopped. Fron the staion exit, it will take more like 10 min with luggage, and you are approaching the hotel from behind - not a big street, and dark and narrow street, but it should be safe. 3. Staff There are no prefessionally dressed, looking hotel staff that you typically see in marriott chain hotels. Mostly youngster who seem to be working part-time for pocket money - typically you see in Starbucks, Burger Kings, etc. They are not rude or anything, but not the kind of professionall service you can expect. 4. Hotel It is a small hotel. It has only 4 floors in a small building, and the first floor is for small retaurant, coffee shop, and others. So the hotel has rooms on only 3 floors. The tiny check-in counter is on the 4th floor. 5. Premium members There is no lounge for premium members. But they made some small lounge (?) or put some sofas near the check-in counter so people can relax. But with many people passing by and talking, it is not the place to relax. There are some drinks and snacks. The snacks are some Japanese and American candies. The quality? American candies are mini Hershey bars, mini M&Ms, etc - Hollowwen candies you give to children. They are OK, but not the ones you expect in club lounges. For coffee and tea, you have to ask at the check in counter, and they will give it to you. I had coffee once, not very good. Some people commented about nice breakfast. But to me it was so so, and just OK. The restaurant is so small that they cannot put many foods, and it can get too crowded. It was difficult to have relaxing breakfast there, and feel you cannot stay too long. It was better than no breakfast, in my view. I can say more things, but I will stop here. Overall, I; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Zhangjiajie Pullman Hotel; City: Zhangjiajie Hunan; Review: This hotel is a bit old one, but it is reasonably good. On the good side, the room rate is low, and the hotel is clean enough. The service is good, too. The hotel is very near National Park - 5 min and a few dollars with taxi, or 20 min on foot. This was a big plus for me. Some improvement may be required for the restaurant in the hotel. The price is reasonable, but the taste was so so or not very good. The hotel restaurant should be a bit better. Perhaps, we are not used to this local food in this area.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Gothia Towers; City: Gothenburg Vastra Gotaland County West Coast; Review: I stayed in Gothia Towers in January for business meeting. I can make following points. - I stayed in Tower 1. The heating was OK, but some women colleagues who stayed in Tower 2/3 had to change the rooms to Tower 1, because the rooms were too cold. It seems that the heating system in other Towers does not work well. - My room had a king size bed, but it was made by putting two twin beds side by side. I paid 4 star hotel room rate, and I slept on twin sized bed. Uncomfortable. - There was a quilt on twin bed, but the quilt was very narrow. And it was narrower than regular twin size in the US. Unless you sleep without moving your body whole night, you wake up in the middle of the night, as part of your body feel cold with no covering. - On twin bed, there is a small pillow, which is square shaped. A square-shaped pillow on the bed? We use this on sofas, but not on beds. Again, unless you sleep without moving your body, you find your head on the bed, but not on the pillow, during the night. Uncomfortable. - There are restaurants at the hotel. Since it was very cold outside (it was January), we need to eat the hotel. The food tasted so so, but the price was high. On the good side, there was a big super market nearby. The hotel looks like a 4 start hotel and look nice outside. But it is more like staying at a 2 star hotel. But Gothia Towers charged us at rate of 4 start hotels.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Wyndham Grand Plaza Royale Colorful Yunnan Kunming; City: Kunming Yunnan; Review: It was a good hotel: large room and bathroom, clean, and good service. I did have any issues with this hotel. But the hotel should improve a few things: - This hotel is in China, and we expect that hotel staff members cannot speak English. But there should be a few staff who can communicate in English for some problems or questions we have at the hotel, We had a hard time in finding someone who speaks English. Other hotels we stayed in China, there were always staff members who spoke English. - Restaurants at the hotel served buffer lunch and dinner, but we could not find the price for them. The hotel need to indicate how much the buffet costs. The price was reasonable. The food quality was average - acceptable, but nothing special.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Westin Osaka; City: Kita Osaka Osaka Prefecture Kinki; Review: The room size is average for Westin hotel, but it should be considered large by Japanese standard. And the room was clean. The hotel staff was friendly. But the room rate was on the high side for what you get. The location is close or next to Umeda Sky building, so it was convenient for me. But it was away from city center, away from central station for subway or train. So the location may be good or bad, depending on your taste. It is quiet and a bit isolated. There is a 7-11 store across the street from the hotel. Restaurant: The hotel has restaurants, but the prices are too high ($ 40 at least, and up in most cases). Although the prices are high, it did not taste all that great. Fortunately, there a food court at Umeda Sky building (B1 floor), and the food prices are cheap and the quality is acceptable. The problem was that there was no place to eat for breakfast, since the food court in Umeda building is not open for breakfast. You can eat at the hotel - breakfast buffet (the only choice). But it was about $38 for the breakfast. It was too expensive for me for breakfast, as I usually eat light breakfast. The hotel should provide breakfast to hotel guests at reasonable price. The hotel seems only to care about making money from people. If you don't want to pay $38 per person, where do the family have breakfast?; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Waldorf Astoria Chicago; City: Chicago Illinois; Review: Great location, wonderful style, elegance - what else to say..... We stayed in a suite, spacious, nice decorated, minimalist yet fantastic furniture. The service overall was great - we had some postcard to mail and went to the reception for stamps and the lady there said not to worry about it and just made it without asking to pay anything - it is not the money we saved, but the gesture.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The St Regis Washington D C; City: Washington DC District of Columbia; Review: St Regis has its name and fame obviously but what we experienced here was really over the top. We booked an Astor suite and we got placed on the top floor which looked very nice, but it was facing another building's roof on which a very noisy air-conditioning system was installed so it made it close to impossible to sleep without ear plugs. The next morning I went to ask for another option and by the end of the day we got another, even bigger suite, facing the city, with no extra charge - now, this is what I call a great customer care and service.... Everything else was also perfect, from the laundry to the breakfast, and I have to mention the funny champagne sabering sharply at 6 pm at the lobby....; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Halekulani Hotel; City: Honolulu Oahu Hawaii; Review: We spent 10 days in Halekulani. We picked the place mostly based on reputation and the reviews and no regrets! Perfect location, polite and friendly service. It's not a club hotel, but still you have this cozy feeling about it which is achieved by the staff behaviour and by the spacious common grounds. The beach "attached" to the hotel has been criticised by others for its small size, but it really did not bother us - just 2 minutes walk and you are at the wide sandy beaches of Waikiki. The concierge at the hotel was perfectly knowledgeable and helpful. Breakfast is really spectacular. Overall - yes, please, and when I can go back...?!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Waldorf Astoria Chicago; City: Chicago Illinois; Review: Again, a perfect stay of 6 nights in a suite of Waldorf Astoria.... At check in, we were offered to get a coffee maker and a kettle in the room without asking. Also, we were asked when the room service and the turn down service shall be done - it was something I was never asked before in other hotels. The interior, the amenities, the speed of service, the cleanliness, the politeness of staff - all in order and perfect. A real flawless stay - in THE Best Hotel if Chicago, if not the whole US.....; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Wellesley Knightsbridge a Luxury Collection Hotel London; City: London England; Review: The brand new hotel at Hype Park Corner provided one of the best hotel experiences we have ever had. The elegant and luxurious art deco style gives you a great first impression and then it comes to the staff - everyone is extremely kind and polite. The restaurant is great for dinner with a jazz singer and pianist, the breakfast room is simply beautiful, the cigar lounge is an interesting and exciting unique thing with great selection of cigars, champagne and I can't recall I have ever seen such a huge single malt collection on a menu before. The room was also very comfortable and tastefully decorated / furnished, it was a "London size" Junior Suite, with the services and amenities being really great. The "creme a'la creme" is the hotel's Rolls Royce which complementarily takes you anywhere within a 1.5 miles radius and this is just really a very nice touch to sit in such a car for a short drive with a fantastic driver - for free.... But the most important thing is how polite and kind the staff is.... Hats off, not only very well trained, but also extremely nice people.... Thank you for the fantastic stay!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: INNSIDE by Melia Dresden; City: Dresden Saxony; Review: Innside by Melia in Dresden is a very nice, modern new hotel in the middle of Dresden. The room we stayed in was very spacious, with a large bathroom and the living / sleeping area was also unusually big. Good breakfast, friendly staff. What makes it only 4 out of 5 rating is the extremely slow wifi which nowadays shall not be that big of an issue to solve.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Wellesley Knightsbridge a Luxury Collection Hotel London; City: London England; Review: Second time for us in The Wellesley and this was as perfect as our first stay. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The interior (most especially the Christmas decoration) is of outmost elegance. The restaurants are stunning, and the food / drinks are prefect. It was certainly busier due to the season than last year - and probably that was the reason why the Rolls was not offered even when it was available (last time we just stepped out of the hotel and we immediately were asked if we needed a ride), that was the only thing which was different this time. At the check out for whatever reason my credit card did not work despite the authorisation was valid since day 1. We tried a couple of times, no success. So finally I needed to pay with another card, still the authorisation of the original card has not yet been lifted so it's a bit tricky now. Anyway, the manager came and apologised and committed to provide an upgrade to us next time we visit The Wellesley....; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Quisisana Palace; City: Karlovy Vary Karlovy Vary Region Bohemia; Review: Fantastic location, beautiful building, really nice suite, delicious lunch at the restaurant. The building is really beautifully renovated, clean and gives you the feeling of the late XIXth century. The neighborhood is calm and quiet as the hotel is located at the far end of the promenade. The lunch we had there on our first day was spectacular, fresh mushroom, fresh prawn and trout, really good service (except when I was paying with my credit card and wanted to add the tip to the bill, the waitress said: "tip is cash". Like that.... However I expect more from a 5 star hotel and from a 540 Euro per night accommodation. What was missing, what was strange? Coffee machine in the suite is kind of normal these days in luxury or In boutique hotels. The room service selection is extremely poor, there's no wine list and you cannot order breakfast in the room. During our breakfast on our first morning my wife asked for a fresh apple juice, which is not part of the breakfast selection the hotel price included - we knew it and it was ok for us, but what surprised us was that the waiter brought the bill of that 5 Euro juice when we were still eating our breakfast, the hotel offers "valet parking", and the receptionist told me when we arrived that for a daily fee of 20 Euros they park the car in a safe place - well, when we walked to the city the same day, I saw my car parked on the street in the middle of the city, behind a restaurant, under the sky. On our last evening while we were walking up to our room, the receptionist ran after us asking when would we leave the hotel the next day because they need the room at 11 am. I said the check out time is at 11 am, so we'd leave at 11 am.... Why would he run after us and ask this question? Isn't it impolite a bit? So overall it was a great stay, but the hotel needs to complete some work in services and in staff politeness to earn 5 stars.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Wellesley Knightsbridge a Luxury Collection Hotel London; City: London England; Review: This was the 3rd time for us to stay at The Wellesley, this time we had a suite with Hyde Park view which was a real difference compared to the Junior Suite - much more spacious and still cozy. The staff is very friendly and polite, maybe a little less "personal" than it used to be when the hotel opened a couple of years ago, but it did not bother us. The location, the art deco style, the decoration, the bar - impressed us again. There was a problem again (like last year) with the pre-authorisation of my credit card, which was not released until a month after we checked out, there's something wrong with the system of the hotel, but the staff was really responsive and helpful with my claim - even though they could not finally help me.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Waldorf Astoria Chicago; City: Chicago Illinois; Review: Waldorf Astoria in Chicago is one of our favourite hotels - stylish, elegant, quiet, and the staff / service is excellent. This time the hotel was much busier then during our previous stays, but somehow the design of the hotel and the fantastic staff could manage to have the feeling that there are only a couple of guests. The only time we experienced a bit of a queue was at check out. This was the first time we enjoyed the bar and the happy hour with champagne and that was really relaxing and is a recommended thing to do. Our flight out of Chicago only took off in the evening, and as the hotel was full, only a limited late check out was granted, but we were invited to the spa to refresh before our trans-Atlantic trip kicked off so this was just a perfect way to wave "so long" to Waldorf Astoria.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Waldorf Astoria Chicago; City: Chicago Illinois; Review: This was not the first time in this hotel for us and will definitely not be the last! Excellent from all possible angles.

Title: Planet Bike Blinky "3H" 3-Led Rear Bicycle Light with Self Leveling Helmet Mount; Brand: Planet Bike; Review: So far, I am really liking this light. It is easy to install on my helmet, swivels the way the description states, and after 350 miles, I am still using the same batteries that came with the light. I only use it blinking mode and I think that saves battery life. The only small drawback is that I think the light itself should be a bit brighter. Other than that, I really do like this product!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Topeak Bar Extender; Brand: Topeak; Review: How many times have you wanted to add something else to your handle bars but haven't been able to because of lack of room? Well, this is how to do that! Even though it takes up 1 spot on your bars, it adds 2. I wish it was capable of adding 3 or maybe even 4 but that would add weight to the extender and possibly cause it to slip on the bar. I have the typical hand brake clamps and the gear shifter clamps on my bar. I am also required (by my cities requirements) a sounding device, which is a signaling bell in my case. I also have my bike computer, a bike gps unit, an extra water bottle holder and 2 headlights on my bar. To put it bluntly, I have no room anymore! I used the bar extender under the bars to put the 2 headlights on because once I turn them on, I don't really need access to them. That frees up the top side to have the other items up close and easy to get to. A very good product to use!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Planet Bike Beamer 3 LED Bicycle Light with Quick Cam Bracket Mount; Brand: Planet Bike; Review: So far, a great product! This is light is easy to mount and use. I haven't had any problems with it yet and I hope I don't. It does put out some decent light once it gets dark, enough to let you see most things. If you do a lot of riding at night, you might want to get something that is a bit brighter. It does what I need it to do. I don't ride much once it does get dark. I mainly use it for my morning commutes to be more noticeable to drivers. I have about 623 miles on the light and am still using the batteries that came with the light. When they do need to be replaced, I am going to try rechargeable batteries to see if they last as long. Overall, a great light to have!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Wellgo Bolt-On Pedal Reflector Set; Brand: Wellgo; Review: A great set of reflectors! Pretty much a generic set of reflectors that will work on a variety of pedals. The studs do have some movement to adjust to different widths of mounting holes. A great bargain!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Mirrycle Incredibell Original Bicycle Bell; Brand: Mirrycle; Review: A great little bell! Went to go register/license my bike at my local police station and was told I needed a bell. Bought this and was quite happy with it. There is no real moving part on it to wear out. There is only the "hammer" that you push down and once released, it hits the bell to sound. Simple and practical!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: 5 LED Bicycle Rear Tail Red Bike Torch Laser Beam Lamp Light; Brand: ; Review: Does everything it says it will do. I would like it so that the "lane" markings were a bit brighter on the ground. This does add a bit of safety to riding in the dark, as long as the motorists pay attention.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hornit dB140 Cycle Horn with Remote Trigger; Brand: Hornit; Review: The horn itself does seem loud, but not quite as loud as I was expecting. Still, it does get the attention of brain dead motorists most of the time. The install is very easy to do, less than five minutes. One drawback could be the way the horn button is mounted...you have to pull a rubber strap around the handle bars and loop it over a "catch" on the button. This seems like it could eventually fail, but other than that, I haven't had any problems with this unit.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Hostal Rincon de Diego; City: Mojacar Province of Almeria Andalucia; Review: Very friendly welcome, clean and smart Hostal. Filling breakfast with Spanish workers for company. Good restaurants next door and beach across the road. Little balcony with sea view and free car parking. Recommended.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel el Postigo; City: Ubeda Province of Jaen Andalucia; Review: Modern, clean and friendly hotel perfect location for walking around Ubeda. No car parking but public only 200 metres away. Parking 12€ per day. Restaurant not open on our stay, breakfast adequate. Would stop there again if in Ubeda? Yes.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Mac Puerto Marina Benalmadena; City: Benalmadena Costa del Sol Province of Malaga Andalu; Review: Hotel is right next to the marina and the paseo by the beach. Bars and resturaunts abound. The Hotel is spotless, food is pretty good but not superb, nice bar and terrace areas. Try for a room on the front as the back can be busy with services from 7.00 a.m. (we don't like that). Great spot if you want a beach holiday!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lodge on Loch Lomond; City: Luss Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park Scotland; Review: They try hard but the place is needing an update, good clean and polish. Attending a wedding, the function was very good and well organised whilst the staff were only just up to the job. The food all arrived on time and hot but food handling by the staff not what I expected. Very expensive drinks balanced up by a brilliant band "Northern Stars".; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Inn on Loch Lomond; City: Luss Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park Scotland; Review: Fantastic rooms but you access off the car park, motel style. The Reception area was messy on arrival with no one in attendance so we waited for the sullen one to show up. I have to say the place looks well tired, stained seats and sticky tabletops defo not the 4* shown on the front entrance signage or the 4* price of £94. Looking forward to a Scottish breakfast? well it was a poor effort "kept warm" buffet with no fried eggs available, hard over done sausages, I could go on. Pitty there is not a lot to choose from in the area, me I'm looking round for somewhere else next time.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Olid Hotel; City: Valladolid Province of Valladolid Castile and Leon; Review: Good city centre location, rooms are comfortable with traditional style but thankfully not tired. Breakfast had lots on offer and was very good e.g. coffee and hot milk in silver servers on the table. Lots of bars etc nearby. Underground parking if you come by car. An enjoyable relaxing stay.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hall 88 Apartahotel; City: Salamanca Province of Salamanca Castile and Leon; Review: Not really a romantic hotel, more suited to business stays. Very clean if a litte tired in places not fitting for 4*. Black furniture in the rooms make it rather dark and dreerie, cumfortable but stark with views over the bus station. Breakfast was dissapointing (very). It's about a 15 minute walk into the Plaza mayor.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Conde Luna; City: Leon Province of Leon Castile and Leon; Review: Old world hotel with massive rooms and wide corridors. Very clean and comfortable, wifi was a bit rubbish and the breakfast was not impressive. Right in amongst the shops, bars and restaurants. Coach dropped us off right outside and the check-in quick, well done.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Ca dei Barcaroli; City: Mestre Veneto; Review: Hotel is adequate for overnighting but not for a longer stay really. Great location for access to Venice, 10 min walk to catch the 4L bus at the stop outside the Cinema. About 15 min ride and you are right in Venice at the Grand Canal, 3€ one way trip. Breakfast is adequate continental, rooms are very clean but the bed for us was too hard. Water pressure was a bit iffy at times and the waste water plumbing run seemed to come through our room, the noise was alarming at 3 a.m.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Tryp Valencia Oceanic Hotel; City: Valencia Province of Valencia Valencian Country; Review: OK its a business style hotel, very smart, efficient and clean. Well its a Melià! Lots of bars and resturaunts at 10 mins walk. A landmark great position right next to El Corte Ingles. 10 Mins walk also to the Oceanografic and other atractions.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Casa Cosy; City: Valencia Province of Valencia Valencian Country; Review: We arrived by car and were directed to the underground car park where we left the car for 4 days. About 200 mts walk and you are at the Casa. I have to say the location is perfect for enjoying Valencia. Cafes, shops, bars and resturaunts abound right outside the door. The Casa itself is well appointed and has everything you will need with quite a few little extras and you think, that's a nice touch. Only thing missing is a view of outside but we only used it to sleep anyway. Highly recommended for sightseeing; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: B B Hotel Castellon; City: Castellon de la Plana Province of Castellon Valencian Country; Review: Perfect for a stop-over, fresh, clean and efficient, that's about it. Don't book a romantic weekend because it's more for Business. Great location with bars and resturaunts right close by. I parked for free right outside but they offer underground parking in the hotel at a cost.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hotel San Francisco Ronda; City: Ronda Costa del Sol Province of Malaga Andalucia; Review: Drop-Off area outside if arriving by car with parking (9€/day) 10 min walk away. Hotel is very clean and functional with a fantastic central location. Our room to the front with a Juliet balcony offered pleasant street views but was rather noisy - Flamenco singer down the street at 1 a.m. then the bin-men at 6 but we enjoyed it.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Numero Uno; City: Antequera Costa del Sol Province of Malaga Andalucia; Review: A "high energy" very busy bar with locals popping in and out constantly chatting, drinking and eating. The staff were very helpful showing us to the 3 different rooms available for us to choose from. Car parking (100 meters away) in a great big, easy to enter, garage (8.50€) per day was excellent and suitable for even a van or motorcycles. As usual the hotel was a bit noisy but where in Spain is it any different. Perfect location in the city centre.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Playasol; City: Puerto de Mazarron Mazarron; Review: The hotel is spotless with tastful decor, the resturaunt and bar areas are delightful, you may if you wish, dine by the pool which is very pleasant and not at all chavy! The resturaunt food is top class but portions are small, breakfast suited us tostada with oil, ham and cheese. I can recommend Room 110 which is at the corridor end so less noisy. The generous balcony overlooks the pool and gardens. Huge living room with a separate bedroom. Aircon, flat screen TV (which we never watched). Heavy drapes keep out all the light for a sound night. Free Parking right outside and a 10 to 15 min stroll will see you on the beach or in one of the many bars or resturaunts.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Mirasol; City: Orgiva Province of Granada Andalucia; Review: We were touring by motorcycle so really just needed a shower and bed. The hotel delivered on this front OK. The wi-fi only worked (well) in the foyer, no breakfast but the place was nice and clean. 36€ and all the noise and clattering around at 1 a.m. and 5.30 a.m. that you could imagine. Take ear plugs.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hospederia Rural Los Balcones; City: Totana; Review: Beautiful location with massive terrace, parking, swimming pool and bar/ resturaunt. Four of us really enjoyed our night of Spanish entertainment. All tables were taken up with a Friday night feeling in the air. We chose some simple food from the quite extensive menu and have to say it was very good. It was still going strong when we left just passed 1 a.m.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Daughter of the Forest (The Sevenwaters Trilogy, Book 1); Author: Visit Amazon's Juliet Marillier Page; Review: Juliet Marillier's beautiful flow of words and ability to draw a reader right in to her stories make her book "Daughter of the Forest" an ideal book for people who enjoy elaborate fantasies and a good read. If you enjoy books that make you simply feel (Laughing, crying, interesting plot lines) then you would most likely enjoy this book. This is an amazing start to a trilogy of three books, The Sevenwaters Trilogy. This book is told through the perspective of a young Irish woman named Sorcha who is bravely trying to break a curse done by an evil sorceress named Lady Oonagh that turned her beloved brothers into swans, doing so in an unbelievably painful way. She faces many trials as she journeys, falls in love, and fights for what she believes in most, her family. This was an extrordinary read and I encourage all lovers of historical fiction and fantasy to read this book.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Cross Stitch; Author: Visit Amazon's Diana Gabaldon Page; Review: This book is, beyond a doubt, one of my all time favorites. I found myself laughing, crying, and feeling an amazing sense of connection to Diana Gabaldon's characters as I journyed through this book to places I'd never been. Claire Randall, our heroin, is happily married to a passionate historian, Frank. While vacationing in the Scottish Highlands shortly after World War II, Claire, in a freak accident, is transported through time by a circle of old, mystic Stading stones, filled with a magic too deep to understand, into the arms of the Scottish Revolution, walking through the days leading to the tragic battle of Culloden. Trying wildly to make her way home, back to Frank, back to all of the things she knew and loved, she finds her heart distracted by another man in a love that she cannot ignore. So much more than your aveage romance, this book is filled with drama, action, and the bond that ties us all, love. I read this book avidly, hardly putting it down, and quickly found myself engulfed in this enthralling novel. I recommend, quite sincerely, to all of you who have not read this book to quickly do so, and hopefully experience the fufillment that I did in its reading.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Son of the Shadows (Sevenwaters Trilogy, Book 2); Author: Visit Amazon's Juliet Marillier Page; Review: When I sit down to read a sequel, I usually find myself preparing to enjoy it, but rarely expect it to measure up to its original. You may think me pessimistic, but in my experience, this has most likely been the case. So, you can imagine my surprise when I read Son of the Shadows, and found myself just as, if not more, drawn in to Juliet Marillier's skilfull use of words and riveting plotlines as when I read her first outstanding novel, Daughter of the Forest. Told through the eyes of Sorcha's daughter Liadan, this novel will demand your attention from the first page to the last, and bring you the undeniable satisfaction of a book well read that only the most skillfull writers can accomplish. Liadan of Sevenwaters shares many of her mother Sorcha's admirable qualities, such as strength, bravery, loyalty, and skill with herbs and healing. Yet Liadan is her own person, and has many of her own qualities as well, such as a very strong will and the ability to be forceful and near bossy at times, a girl used to getting her way. But when she is forcefully kidnapped from all that she knows and loves, Liadan must show marked bravery and determination to survive. She will laugh, cry, fight, and fall into the kind of love that goes beyond love, an unbreachable bond, the kind of love that only visits us once in a lifetime. She will risk everything on that love as she endures pain and loss. As this story unfolds, you will find yourself spellbound by its beautiful flow of words and mesmric plotline, or at least, I certainly did.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: THE PRINCE AND THE PILGRIM; Author: MARY STEWART; Review: Although this book is quite well written, with a satisfactory craftmanship of words, I must say that I was not particularly excited about this novel. It held my interest fairly well, but I didn't feel the flood of emotions truly good books always bring me. I liked the way both Alexander and Alice have, in their way, their own seperate sections, like how it explained their youth, but I didn't really enjoy how they didn't meet until close to the end of the book. It seemed short and fake when Alexander proclaimed his love to Alice, and lacked the ability to set my heart thumping and my eyes watering as a passionate romance novel may have. Since it was obvious how the book would end, I didn't feel the suspense or intrigue I expected. Although it may have its faults, it was not a completely bad book, and in the end, I would dub it "okay".; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Girl with a Pearl Earring; Author: Tracy Chevlier; Review: This book was the way I discovered one of my favorite authors, Tracy Chevalier. I was left literally speechless by her blunt, yet beautiful writing style that kept me reading and reading. Set in the seveneenth century, this engrossing novel explores the mysterious origins of the painting, "Girl With a Pearl Earring" and the heart of a young maid named Griet. I found myself transfixed by Chevalier's way of conecting the readers slowly and carefully to her interesting and unique characters, and the novel maintained my interest throughout its entirety, leaving me with a strange, empty feeling when I was through. I strongly reccomend lovers of historical fiction, romance, and good writing to read this story.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Smith & Wesson Model 100 Standard Chain Handcuffs Steel; Brand: Smith & Wesson; Review: S&W cuffs are proven tools and these are exactly what they say. I prefer hinged for faster application or during resisting, but a chained set are a must for certain situations as well. Not sure why reviews are suggesting they are used. They are steel, not polished nickel, so they aren't going to be all shiny anyway. Based on previous item purchases, these appear just as new as any others I've bought, and at a better price. The colored will work, but require far more care and upkeep so I would recommend avoiding those.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | amazon_Sports_and_Outdoors |

Title: Mama Mia Nails & Spa; City: Saint Louis, MO; Review: Horrible communication skills. Not up front with being out of products, they just do the work and expect you to like it regardless. Hands look horrible and they'd rather shave the sides of my nails with an emery board and cause pain separating my skin from my nail instead of making it right. Instead of a partial refund as I requested, they threatened to take all the polish off and refund me the polish. Seriously? Had the nerve to say I was doing this on purpose! I'm at a loss of words.

Title: Francisco Bay Inn; City: San Francisco California; Review: Room was acceptable but not for over 200.00 a night. Elevator didn't work, continental breakfast a joke and full of flies. The most infuriating thing was the desk clerk ( possible owner) lied when bookinig tickets for a tour. Told us she needed a cash deposit as was required by the tour operator. We paid her cash and later found out at the tour that she simply lied and cheated us out of the cash "deposit." Would have paid her a fee gladly for booking the tour but instead she chose to lie and cheat. Do not stay here.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Red Roof Inn Suites Knoxville East; City: Knoxville Tennessee; Review: Location east of Knoxville, ruby Tuesday very close to eat. Other motels right beside this one. Photo online of room 224 is what ours was like, basic, basic, basic. Coffee maker was one cup maker and we had exactly one coffee in room. Asked at desk and was given more. Shampoo was also for one person. Clean and acceptable, but probably would not stay again. Breakfast was horrible and other guests went to Burger King to pick up breakfast AFTER they ate at motel. Breakfast available until 9:30 but at 8:15 already no biscuits or sausage, only gravy was refilled. Toast or cereal was choices. Couldn't believe food was never refilled.; Rating: 2.0/5.0

Decor was fine and updated.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Super 8 by Wyndham Hannibal; City: Hannibal Missouri; Review: Paid more for this run down motel than a 3.5 star in big city. It was horrible. In lower level of motel and windows have no locks. Clean but so old and worn. Stains on carpets and furniture. Uncomfortable very worn mattresses. No fridge, microwave, old style tv, very little for continental breakfast. Building in desperate need of simple repairs. trims falling off doors and such. hasnt been maintained. Large ashtray at entrance. I would not stay again. Not worth the high charges, not a 2 star at all. I would say 1.5 stars.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Crowne Plaza AiRE MSP Airport Mall of America; City: Bloomington Minnesota; Review: This hotel isn't quite what I would call 3.5. It is a firm 3 stars. Room was fine although two double beds are worthless for a couple. The room could use a bit more updating but was fine.pool, restaurant, all good. Problems, parking. Everyone drives around and around and around to get a space at night. The worst is the beds and sheets. After experiencing the comfort of the other crown plaza in west Bloomington , this is horrible, bed wise. They put so much starch in their sheets I can literally get it to stand up 4 feet. It is like sleeping with paper. Beds rent comfy so out of a 3 week trip nod sleeping in many 2 stars, this was the worst for keeping. Good location but if you are fussy sleeper I would go somewhere else.; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Tucker's Way; Author: Visit Amazon's David Johnson Page; Review: This is a very plain spoken book about a way of life that is very real and happens more often than I want to realize. My son is a youth pastor who has seen this evidenced in several young people. The reason for the low rating is for it being way too graphic. As has been said in other reviews, the story could have been easily and effectively done without such sexually and sordid, graphic detail. It would not have removed from the effectiveness of the story. I deleted this book got my Kindle before finishing it because of its sexual and sordid detail. I reloaded it to give it the lowest rating possible, but decided to read it through after talking to my youth pastor son. It ended on a better note. I am giving it a two star rating due to what I feel was way too sexually explicit material.; Rating: 2.0/5.0

Title: Tension (By a Thread, #2); Author: R.L. Griffin; Genres: thriller, crime, fiction, romance, mystery; Review: Tension does not disappoint! After reading, By a Thread, RL Griffin left me hanging and wanting more. She delivered with Tension, 2nd book of the series. The main character, Stella, is an amazing multifaceted woman. I was pulled into her story of loss and learning to live life again. Then, she was once again, faced with despair. This is where "Tension" picks up. RL Griffen pulled me right back into Stella's life and her friends and not so friends. Griffin delivers her words so that you get caught up in the life of Stella and yet also in the lives of the other supporting characters. Not only do you want to know what is happening with Stella, you want to peak into the lives of the others. Just as you start to get deep into a scene, you are switched to another. Still ready to learn more about what is happening with the last scene, but wanting to keep reading to see what is happening in the background as Stella's story unfolds. You will not be disappointed! If you haven't read, "By a Thread", grab it first. Then be ready to be sucked right back into Stella's life in "Tension!"; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: By a Thread (By a Thread, #1); Author: R.L. Griffin; Genres: mystery, thriller, crime, romance, fiction; Review: Such a great book! I finished it and quickly was thinking what happened? By a Thread was a cliffhanger. I immediately went in search of the author to find out what happened, only to find that I had nothing to worry about. By a Thread was the start of a series. Grab this book and fall in love with a very broken Stella who is surrounded by people who support her. But the support is as only as good as Stella allows it to be. This is not just a romance book, but a book that explores deep feelings. Fall in love with Stella, Patrick, Billie, and Millie!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Seamless (By a Thread, #3); Author: R.L. Griffin; Genres: history, thriller, crime, biography, historical fiction, fiction, romance, mystery; Review: Have you ever read a story where you are sucked in and feel like you know the characters personally? This is what happens when you read the series from RL Griffin! Loved By a Thread #1. Waited on Tension #2 to be released. Loved it as well. Again, RL Griffin left me wanting more of Stella's story. So, I found myself waiting on Seamless #3 of the series to be released. How fortunate I was to win an advanced copy of Seamless. Once again, RL Griffin did not disappoint. In fact, Seamless is my favorite of the series! It is very fast paced and moving right upon till the end. BUT, I am not ready for the end of Stella and her friends. I need more! Looking forward to reading "Mending" and "Heart In Wire" once they are released. I don't want to spoil any of these books by giving too much info. Each one takes you on a roller coaster ride. Hang on!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sunshine & Whiskey (Drinking, #1); Author: R.L. Griffin; Genres: romance; Review: RL Griffin does it again! She writes a book that leaves me wanting more! Hilarious scenes that makes you want to take a road trip with your girlfriends. Yes, as true RL Griffin fashion, there are deep touching moments that will remind you of past relationships, remembering just what those gut wrenching decisions were like. However, Sunshine & Whiskey is really a romantic comedy, a new genre for Griffin. If you need a laugh, lots of laughs, read Sunshine & Whiskey! I have a few girlfriends that would be perfect for a road trip just like the one Megan and Laura took. Who wants to go?! BTW, when the author tells you NOT to Google something in the book, DON'T. Well do, but don't! I did. Will you? Thanks RL for giving me tons of laughs during a very stressful time in my life!!! Can't wait for more of these characters story! THIS CAN BE READ AS A STAND ALONE!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Too Late; Author: Colleen Hoover; Genres: young-adult, thriller, crime, fiction, romance, mystery; Review: Too Late..... Gritty. Seriously one of my favorite books this year. This story was brilliantly written and I am so glad it was published.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Bleed The Water Red; Author: R.L. Griffin; Genres: romance; Review: So much to love about this book! R.L. Griffin delivers once again with complex characters and storyline. She weaves a tale of an old love and a new love, then delivers her twist. Not just one twist with the love story, but twists in the plot that leaves you shaking your head. This is something that Griffin always does, which makes me continue to buy her books.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Brother; Author: K. Larsen; Genres: thriller, crime, romance, mystery; Review: Another great read by Larsen! Wasn't sure how she could tie this book up with the lies existing, but as always, Larsen comes through. Can't wait for her next one. Human trafficking..; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | goodreads |

Title: Relais Uffizi; City: Florence Tuscany; Review: My husband and I stayed at the Relais Uffizi for three nights on our honeymoon in June, 2006. The hotel could not possibly be in a better location but it is almost impossible to find because it is down a narrow alley. It took me an hour (in over 100 degree heat) to find the place, and I had been warned that it was tough to locate! I think they should make it a point of including a map with detailed directions with every reservation. As far as the hotel itself is concerned, it was okay if not amazing. The room was fine, actually rather large, with a couch and a comfortable bed. The bathroom was small but clean and functional. Breakfasts were good although repetitive. Service was rather odd (although friendly enough); there is no front desk, so you check in in an office area. There was no internet access but the manager allowed me to use the office computer a couple of times.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Villa Lara; City: Amalfi Amalfi Coast Province of Salerno Campania; Review: My husband and I spent three nights in Amalfi on our honeymoon to Italy in June, 2006. We had a memorable time at the Villa Lara. The room--though small--was cozy and the shower was out of this world (it gave a standing massage). The free internet access in the lobby was nice but the best part...by far...was the view from the balcony. Eating breakfast on that balcony overlooking the Mediterranean...what more could you ask for? The food was great but the view was once in a lifetime. We would stay again in a heartbeat.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Residenza Cellini; City: Rome Lazio; Review: My husband and I spent two nights at the Residenza Cellini during our honeymoon, and we absolutely loved this small, intimate hotel. It was in a perfect location (not far from the train station and close to public transportation, which we took everywhere!) and the service was impeccable. The breakfasts were great. The hotel is sparkling clean and I still recall how nice it smelled, not just clean but lightly scented by the lovely flower arrangements in the hall. The room itself was perfect for the two of us: a comfortable king-sized bed, a spacious bathroom, plenty of room for our suitcases. We would certainly stay again and highly recommend this hotel.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Renaissance Pittsburgh Hotel; City: Pittsburgh Pennsylvania; Review: We live in the Pittsburgh area and booked a night at the Renaissance Hotel to celebrate our wedding anniversary. As natives we know that this is really the most elegant hotel in town, and it's right in the middle of the theater district, which gave us the opportunity to see a show as well. Service at the hotel is friendly and attentive. The lobby is gorgeous. The restaurant (Opus) is excellent (we didn't eat there this time, but earlier experiences have all been good). Our room was an interior standard room, but even so it it was good-sized and the bed was extremely comfortable. Very nice bathroom. All in all a lovely experience.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Courtyard Washington DC Dupont Circle; City: Washington DC District of Columbia; Review: My husband and I go to DC fairly often simply because we love the city. We prefer the Dupont Circle area--a great location in its own right but with easy Metro access to other areas of the city. This Courtyard is fairly well-located, within a couple of blocks of the Dupont Circle Metro, and within walking distance of Adams Morgan. I don't know that there is anything terribly special about this hotel; it's an average Courtyard. It's certainly not worth paying a premium price for (we've gotten good rates on the hotel website, using AAA), but if you're looking for a good basic hotel, you won't be disappointed.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: La Residenza; City: Rome Lazio; Review: My husband and I spent the last few days of our honeymoon here in July, 2006. We were a bit exhausted after a couple of weeks traveling around Italy (not that we were complaining!) and found La Residenza to be a welcome, quiet refuge. The staff was always nice to us and quite attentive (not always the case in Italy). The room was clean and comfortable, if not the most up-to-date. The bathroom was larger than many we encountered on our trip. The best part, though, was the fabulous breakfast buffet. It was truly gorgeous, with a wonderful variety of offerings, and got us started off on the right foot each day.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Orchard Hotel; City: San Francisco California; Review: My husband and I stayed at The Orchard Hotel for 5 nights in late June and were very pleased. Our room, a King on the 8th floor, was spotless. The bed was among the most comfortable I've encountered. The bathroom was clean and spacious with plenty of towels and counter space. Wireless service was strong and worked perfectly in the room. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. The location is perfect--right off Union Square, near cable cars, incredible shopping, and restaurants. And..the price for all this was reasonable, $149 per night. Although this price did not include breakfast, there were wonderful restaurant choices within mere yards of the hotel. We highly recommend this hotel and will surely stay there on future visits to San Francisco!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Holiday Inn Express Stony Brook; City: Stony Brook Long Island New York; Review: I visited this hotel with my son while touring Stony Brook University, which payed for our stay (although initially they lost the information from the school, so the error had to be cleared up). While the reservation process was great, very pleasant actually, the actual hotel staff seemed very ill-trained. For example, the only type of room that was available was a king/pullout couch. My son pulled out the bed to go to sleep, and there were no linens--no sheets, no pillows, no blanket. I called housekeeping and they brought only a wrong-sized fitted sheet and a pillow. I called again and the same person came back, apologized, and handed my son a thin blanket, almost like a throw. At that point we were too tired to complain, but it was really rather shocking! My bed--the king--was fine, comfortable. The room itself was also good. Spacious and very clean. The bathroom was very nice too with lots of counter space and thick towels. The breakfast was also all right. The usual prefab continental breakfast with prefab omelets, but certainly adequate. Generally, I think the hotel is all right, it's just not managed well.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Fairfield Inn New York JFK Airport; City: Jamaica Queens New York; Review: I stayed here with my 18 year old son overnight before leaving on a early morning flight. We were both very pleased with the hotel. The room was fine, the beds were comfy, the bathroom was nice and clean with plenty of water pressure, the front desk staff were friendly and efficient, the hotel-airport shuttle ran on time, the breakfast was good (lots of fresh fruit, which I love!)--all in all exactly what one needs for a quick overnight. We'll stay there again if ever in the area.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Residence Inn Binghamton; City: Vestal New York; Review: I stayed in this hotel with 4 teenagers while one of them (my son, 18) was touring BU prior to making his college decision (he decided to go to the school). While the staff were extremely friendly and went out of their way to be helpful, there were fresh cookies on check-in, and the lobby area was pleasant, there were too many problems with the stay to ignore. The room was too cold downstairs, but too hot upstairs. The rooms were definitely not as clean and well-cared-for as I am used to with the Marriott brand generally. One of the bathrooms was downright dirty. The breakfast, while more than adequate, ended at 8:30 am...probably fine for business travelers, but try getting 4 teenagers out of bed that early when they don't have to get up! I can't say I'd never stay here again or that I wouldn't recommend this hotel to a friend, but this won't be my first choice for future trips to the area.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Holiday Inn Express Boone; City: Boone North Carolina; Review: We stayed here while touring nearby ASU with my 18 year old daughter. Very nice property--new, clean, very comfortable beds with silky sheets. Front desk staff was remarkably helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good, nothing special but certainly adequate. Would stay here again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Candlewood Suites Greenville NC; City: Greenville North Carolina; Review: I stayed here with my 18 year old daughter while touring the nearby ECU campus. This location appears to be brand-new. It's clean, in a good location accessible to restaurants, grocery stores, and shopping. Rooms are good-sized, beds comfortable, towels good quality and in good condition. Front desk staff was remarkably friendly and helpful during our stay. The only negative--and for me this is a small one--is that the water pressure in the shower was rather weak. Not a trickle, but definitely not strong pressure.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Red Roof Inn Binghamton Johnson City; City: Johnson City New York; Review: I come to the Binghamton area often and have stayed at several of the area hotels, usually higher-end ones costing twice as much or more. Those places definitely have better amenities, but for a quick overnight, this hotel is absolutely great! I am very impressed with the place. The front desk staff is friendly and efficient. The room (in my case a King Superior) was of reasonable size, equipped with the necessary amenities (except a hairdryer: that is one thing I wish they'd add). The bed was comfortable. There was none of that "cheap hotel" antiseptic smell. The bathroom was adequate, though small. Towels were clean, in good condition and of reasonable quality. Water pressure was very good. As far as location is concerned, the hotel is convenient to the highway and close to restaurants, a great grocery store and even a shopping mall, but is still slightly "off the beaten path" and therefore quiet. A great option for a short stay!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Fairfield Inn Suites Bedford; City: Bedford Pennsylvania; Review: I stayed here overnight while traveling through on the PA Turnpike--got tired of driving and decided to stop in Bedford. This is a nice, new hotel and I enjoyed my stay. Small, clean pool and whirlpool; also a nice fitness center with new cardio equipment and a full rack of weights. Room was comfortable, and the breakfast was more than adequate. I'd stay here again and would recommend to a friend.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hilton Harrisburg; City: Harrisburg Pennsylvania; Review: I stayed at the Hilton in connection with a professional conference I attended there. It's a typical, nice, downtown hotel; a bit dated but well-maintained. On the positive side, the room was clean and comfortable, and both the food and the service was excellent. However, on the negative side, the conference rooms were freezing....and when I say freezing, I mean teeth-chatteringly frigid to the point that winter coats were being worn by many attendees. Apparently this is a well-known issue with this hotel as others who had attended the same conference in previous years told me that it happens every year.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Best Western Plus Suites Greenville; City: Greenville North Carolina; Review: I stayed here overnight while picking up my daughter from ECU. Overall, I was very pleased with this hotel. I arrived during the "manager's reception", which wasn't glamorous, but it certainly was a nice and welcome offering of popcorn and drinks at the end of a long drive! The room was quite large and clean, with a comfortable bed, nice bathroom, plenty of good towels and excellent water pressure (I can't stand not having enough water pressure!). The only small complaint I have was that the breakfast could have been a bit better; it seems not to be priority for them. For example, they had oatmeal packets, but no hot water! And I would have liked some fresh fruit. But the coffee was good and I got plenty to eat--cereal and yogurt was plentiful and all I really needed anyway.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Red Tree House; City: Mexico City Central Mexico and Gulf Coast; Review: My husband and I stayed at the Red Tree House for 6 nights in June, 2012 and could not have been happier with our stay. From the warm, personal attention we received from Victor, Ernesto and ALL the staff, to the lovingly decorated surroundings (including our room--we stayed in the Oaxaca Suite), to the fabulous location in Condesa (which reminded us a little bit of Paris...), to the delicious breakfasts, there was nothing to fault and everything to praise. We would stay here again in a heartbeat and we give this inn our strongest possible recommendation!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Antigua Capilla Bed and Breakfast; City: San Miguel de Allende Central Mexico and Gulf Coast; Review: It is rare indeed that a lodging provides not only what you expect and hope for, but even more! Antigua Capilla is such a place. First of all, the place is gorgeous--the architecture and decoration are clearly a labor of love on the part of the owners/hosts, Antonieta and Francisco. It's also impeccably clean, not a speck of dust anywhere. As to the hosts, they are extremely gracious and accommodating while at the same time valuing the privacy of their guests. For example, there is a large communal dining table for breakfasts (more about those later!) but they've made provision for people who'd rather dine privately. Any sort of reservation or request is immediately tended to, and the hosts have a great network of contacts and can hook you up with any tour you might care to take. They've also gone out of their way to anticipate the needs of their guests. Rooms have iPod docks, Flat-Screen Apple TV with a wide selection of movies, and phone calls to the US are free. The rooms themselves are stunning. Our room--the Mata Ortiz Room--was very large, beautifully decorated and featured a huge walk-in tiled shower. Breakfasts are wonderful, and include yogurt, fresh fruit and an authentic Mexican dish each day (variations cheerfully accommodated). I can't say enough about the breakfasts. It's been a couple of months and I still miss them! As far as location is concerned, visitors to San Miguel have basically two choices: the view from high up (meaning a walk to the center of town), or staying near the center of town. Antigua Capilla is for those who prefer the view and are willing to make the (10-15 minute) walk or take a cab ride (35 pesos) "downtown". I found the walk pleasant and the view more than worth it--and the inn has a lovely patio providing a stunning view of the town (breathtaking at night). All in all, one of the best places I've ever stayed, and I give it my very highest recommendation.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: SpringHill Suites by Marriott Atlanta Airport Gateway; City: College Park Georgia; Review: This is a brand-new, reasonably priced, clean, comfortable hotel easily reached from the airport by train. If you have an early departure or late arrival, this is the perfect choice as it could not be more convenient. Rooms are clean, comfortable and efficient; staff is businesslike (if not overly friendly); and breakfast is good. Also it's considerably less pricey than the Marriott right across the street.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hampton Inn Suites Mexico City Centro Historico; City: Mexico City Central Mexico and Gulf Co; Review: I want to give this hotel a better rating but just can't. It's actually a lovely hotel in a great location. Wonderful staff. Good breakfast. The room was comfortable too. But...the hotel, and particularly our room, smelled awful. A chemical-y, sweet smell as though they were trying to cover something up...possibly smoke? I am truly not that sensitive to smells but it was impossible to ignore.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hampton Inn Moab; City: Moab Utah; Review: This hotel is clean, new and has all the amenities you'd want. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. It's located within 5 minutes of Arches NP and the Moab business district with restaurants, shops, etc. Breakfast is ample with a good selection (although I've never been a fan of the Hampton Inn's prefab eggs, there are plenty of other options including waffles, oatmeal, cereal, pastries, fruit, etc.). Others have mentioned that the hotel is a bit pricey (around $200/night) but I didn't see this as terribly shocking or unexpected for a nicer hotel in a vacation area during high season. I'd stay again!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Quality Inn Breeze Manor; City: Breezewood Pennsylvania; Review: This is an older motel, but it is well maintained, clean, and the management is wonderful. Our room was large (smaller bathroom, but more than adequate), bed comfortable, plenty of towels (not brand new but clean and soft), shower sparkling clean with nice tile and good water pressure. The breakfast was good, with lots of choices and friendly conversation with the owner, who takes real pride in the place. I would stay here again and recommend to friends.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Wingate by Wyndham Greenville; City: Greenville North Carolina; Review: This is not a knock-your-socks-off hotel, but it is perfectly fine with only one small downgrade--the front desk staff was not particularly friendly (not nasty, just not terribly welcoming). The room was reasonably sized and clean; bathroom was fine; shower fine; plenty of clean towels, bed comfortable. The breakfast was the typical fare; they kept running out of coffee but the helpful attendant cheerfully got extra from the back.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: BarcelonaBB; City: Barcelona Catalonia; Review: My husband and I stayed 4 nights in the Wooden Room and enjoyed our stay immensely. The place is beautiful, lovingly maintained and in a perfect location for exploring Barcelona--within walking distance of many sights including the Sagrada Familia, and very close to the Metro. Breakfasts each morning were delicious with Kiku presiding genially, and we enjoyed meeting others from around the world. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Holiday Inn Express Hotel Suites Colorado Springs Dwtn Area; City: Colorado Springs El Paso Co; Review: My husband and I stayed at this property for 4 nights during an April, 2017 visit to our daughter, who lives in the Springs. All was well in terms of the comfort level of the hotel, the room itself, food choices and the like. Front desk staff was helpful and friendly and it was our intent to make this hotel our base for future visits. Unfortunately, following our departure, a dispute arose over the billing that has been so badly handled that we are forced to question the competence and possibly the honesty of hotel management. To make a very long story short, we were double billed for our stay. I have simple and readily verifiable proof of this, which I have provided to the hotel; however, my proof contradicts their billing records which, of course, indicate that we were charged once. No surprise there: the shocking thing is that not only are their billing records wrong and easily proven so, but their attitude is that "our records are right and if yours show something different, we don't care." My recommendation--if you choose to do business with this hotel at all--is to watch the billing carefully or perhaps pay in cash so they can't keep making unilateral decisions to charge your credit card as they have done with us.; Rating: 1.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Shade's Children; Author: Visit Amazon's Garth Nix Page; Review: One the best pieces of post-apocalyptic young adult science fiction I've read. The plot is dark and complex, filled with characters who are human, yet shades of modern humans. The world is curious, more whimsical than one would expect for such a dark story. I highly recommend for adult science fiction readers, some of the topics discussed are likely not appropriate for children.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Brainwashed: The Seductive Appeal of Mindless Neuroscience; Author: Sally Satel; Review: An interesting book that outlines the pitfalls of a fMRI as used to explain a reductionist concept of the human mind. Unfortunately the book is over simplistic, written for the general public with little useful information for health care professionals or neuroscientists. Additionally, the book does not take into account recent changes in the analysis of fMRI that neuroscientists have instituted to stop some of the more egregious examples of overreach given in "Brainwashed." Combined, a worthwhile read for people outside of the neuroscientific field, but take it with a grain of salt.; Rating: 3.0/5.0

Title: First Aid for the Basic Sciences, General Principles, Second Edition (First Aid Series) - Kindle edition; Author: Visit Amazon's Tao Le Page; Review: Apparently this book is Section II of FIRST AID for USMLE Step 1 if the authors and editors had more space to fill. The book really shines in picking the best explanatory figures from McGraw Hills extensive biomedical library. It also gives focused narrative descriptions of concepts glossed over by its abbreviated companion. This book it not for people satisfied with FIRST AID for USMLE Step 1, but is meant to supplement it for those who desire more detail and explanation.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible (Powerscore Test Preparation); Author: Visit Amazon's David M. Killoran Page; Review: PowerScore provides a comprehensive system designed to help you attack the logic games section of the LSAT. However, reading this book is not sufficient to excel at logic games. Rather, after reading this book, students should take the skills they should learn and apply them (over and over again) to LSAC approved and non-approved logic games so you are proficient at using the tools the Logic Games Bible teaches when siting for the LSAT.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Reductionism in Art and Brain Science: Bridging the Two Cultures; Author: Eric Kandel; Review: A beautifully designed/printed book, but understand that this was written by a neuroscientist. Kandel treats movents of art as one gestalt movement towards a reductivist understanding of the human mind (e.g. eschewing concepts of beauty and idealism in favor of looking at how simple forms can elicit complex responses in viewers via activation of common, basic neural pathways). In this sense, it is a gross oversimplification of the history of art that many will find infuriating. What makes this book interesting is the privileged position the reader is placed in: to glimpse into the mind of a first class practitioner of the "hard sciences" and to see how Kandel thinks about art. The book lends itself to hard thought about the rift between science and the humanities.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Rapid Review Biochemistry: With STUDENT CONSULT Online Access; Author: John W. Pelley PhD; Review: This book shines in reteaching everything I forgot about biochemistry for STEP 1. The outline style of writing does not detract from the book's ability to teach from the ground up. Please note that if you are looking for help memorizing small details about diseases, you would be better off spending time with FIRSTAID's tables. On several occasions I found that information was lacking, but this may be intentional on the part of the editors/authors to only present high yield information. The online practice questions are NOT board style, they are overly simplistic and will only test your knowledge of keywords and COMPLETE/stereotypical disease presentations. Additionally, in spite of what the book's introduction suggests, there is only one way of taking the practice questions (random order from the whole databank).

Title: The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court; Author: Visit Amazon's Jeffrey Toobin Page; Review: There is no doubt that Toobin has a gift for writing history with the average reader in mind. The Nine is both entertaining and educational, recounting the history of the Burger, Rheinquist and Roberts Courts. The book focuses separately on the political decisions and drama that lead to the composition of the Court, and the landmark cases of interest to the general public. Most striking is the recounting of "inside information" happening within the Justices' chambers during these historic moments. This book was not written for appellate lawyers, and does not dwell on little-known cases with (arguably) more legal importance than Roe v. Wade etc. But Toobin's aim is not to recant important case law, but to draw focus to the human actors and the way in which they made decisions affecting millions of Americans. He achieves this, and gives readers a privileged view into the most secretive branch of the US government. I do wish that Toobin had taken a more tempered approach to looking at the Supreme Court. When only focusing on contentious cases, one can walk away with a very jaded view of the good work the Justices do. To wit, a major element of the book is a narrative of a seedy conservative plot to take over the Court. While the Court has no doubt drifted right, Toobin's panic can seep through in off putting ways. Unfortunately, this is largely to do with the historical moment Toobin focuses on which is exclusively after the Warren Court. A reader interested in the politics of the Court would be wise to expand their inquiries to other sources, and other periods of Court history, and take Toobin's conclusions with a grain of salt.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Differential Diagnosis Pocket: Clinical Reference Guide (Pocket (Borm Bruckmeier Publishing)); Author: M.D. Sailer Christian; Review: The pros: great pocket size, comprehensive differential diagnoses. The cons: organization is not always aligned with normal clinical practice, the comprehensive nature of the ddx lists is overwhelming and does not focus on likelihood or epidemiology.; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Hostal Garden by Refugio del Rio; City: Boquete Chiriqui Province; Review: On my recent travels in Panama, I stayed for two nights, on separate occasions, here. The location is amazing - it is directly on the river and that's what sings you to sleep at night. The setting is beautiful in that the property is meticulously maintained, huge mature trees, inviting seating areas outside and by the river and what looked to me like other very nice rooms I wish I could've had a look at. The locale is also great because it is within walking distance to most every service in Boquete: restaurants (high and low end), great coffee, super mercados, the central park, shops, adventure tour guides (Explora Ya) and a Spanish school I attended (Habla Ya). I'm not sure if the woman who greeted me on both occasions is the owner, but she couldn't have been kinder and more accommodating despite my halting Spanish(she has very little English, just FYI). The first night, I stayed in cabin #3. It's spartan and neat as a pin with everything you need - including a balcony directly on the river with comfy chairs, good lighting, and a superb, huge shower. This cabin is a private with a private bath. The second time I stayed, I arrived very late and she offered me a spot in her men's dorm: comfy bed, a fine shared bathroom and shower and a very quiet vibe. The night I stayed there, only five other guys were in a dorm I believe sleeps twelve. There's wi-fi, a fantastic communal kitchen, a separate bathroom off the lobby, a big dining room table she also has some bare necessity foods on hand for sale. This may be the owners home as well, I wasn't sure, and if feels very much like you are staying in a nice private home. I would return to this hostal, on my next visit to Boquete, without hesitating.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lemon Inn Panama; City: Panama City Panama Province; Review: This is a small family owned and operated bed and breakfast with a fantastic location in the center - San Francisco district - of Panama City. The family has completely transformed their former home into a European style, immaculate inn. It's only a few months old. I stayed in the single, quiet room with a private bath, room #2. Everything I needed was handled: a fantastic and strong shower, a/c, free, high-speed wi-fi, a flat-screen TV, a comfy, queen-sized bed in a very nicely set up room. The property is decorated with great color photos of city life in Panama. I like that they're encouraging guests to consider the environment with an instruction card as to how to skip having towels and linens if you choose. The property is secure, it has a really nice patio under an enormous tree for hanging out and relaxing, a dining area just off the reception and the breakfast offerings were really nice: yogurts, fruits, cereals, waffles, meat and cheeses, Panamanian coffee and more. The location means many areas of the city are within walking distance, it’s close to a popular mall with shops and dining and, if you choose to, getting a taxi is easy. They also have a tour/shuttle set up if you let them know ahead of time. I would stay here again. I wish I could’ve stayed longer.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: M M s Residencias; City: Bocas Town Isla Colon Bocas del Toro Province; Review: I recently stayed at M & M Residencia’s for a month while taking Spanish classes and doing some volunteer work at the local “asilo” – nursing home. Like many accommodations in Bocas Town, this is a small inn with a studio, two one-bedroom apartments and one, large two-bedroom apartment (with an immense two-bedroom loft available May - November. During my stay, I had the chance to check out the other apartments rented by two other long-term visitors – they’re big and very nice. I traveled by myself and stayed in the studio. It was perfect for me. It is directly – and I mean jump off the balcony for a cool dip - on the water. The eaves over my balcony meant that I could enjoy the sunsets without broiling, or watch the rains come in and the boats go by. The apartments have all the amenities I needed: linens, towels, a simple but functional kitchenette, pots, pans, utensils, a TV/remote control (largely ignored by me), a hammock for relaxing, a very comfy and firm, queen-sized bed, shelves, ceiling fan, French doors to the balcony, a small safe, it’s close to the good grocer/deli, The Super Gourmet, walking distance to everything, an off-the-main street locale, an inviting public deck on the water (not bad for watching the starfish) or having a beer with other guests, a roomy and strong shower, a guy who picked me up at the airport for free, handsome all wooden - new - construction, a very friendly vibe, and most importantly for me, air-conditioning for sleeping, internet availability on the entire property and ON DEMAND, POTABLE WATER. I can’t stress enough how nice this single feature is. I can roll with the absence of safe water if I have to, but decent drinking water that I don’t have to spend time worrying about or sterilizing myself is really, really nice. The owner is proud that he can offer this service to his guests and he should be; it is not a feature of any other properties that I am aware of (it is a mystery to me, if other hotels in town offer quality water, why they aren’t bragging about it loudly on their sites). The water in Bocas is not good and suffers the reputation accordingly. I am told that the city water is potable, and that may be, but it smells really bad and is not clear. I am also averse to buying bottled water for a number of reasons. Additionally, the owner supplements the city water with his own cistern/cachement system so the “other” faucet and showering doesn’t smell. The owner lives on-site in his own home above the office (he also has other properties in the area that look nice, but I did not visit them). He’s happy to offer advice on where to eat, what to do and places worth seeing. There were several power-outages during my stay - some that lasted for hours while the town did some major work on upgrading the generators running the power on the island. Here, in; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: River Heights Motel; City: Prescott Wisconsin; Review: I've stayed at the River Heights Motel a couple times because it's close to where one of my parents live. It is currently for sale and it shows; the current owner's are understandably not spending any money on it. The entire property needs serious renovation from water damage in bathrooms, and fixtures, to the furnishings, to all the finishes; it's all dead tired. For the price - over $65.00 for a single per night, the standard of the rooms and what you get, I felt gouged. Some rooms have internet, some don't. Some rooms have a coffee maker, some don't and of the rooms I've stayed in, none of them has a light that can be easily reached from bed to read with. I moved a standing lamp to the side of the bed (only some of the outlets have power) so I could read in bed. The good news is that the motel is on a beautiful site above the river, they've recently changed to a non-smoking policy (although unsuccessfully in rooms that were once smoking rooms - they still reek), the nearby restaurant/bar across the parking lot serves solid standards, and who ever buys this place might possibly give it the love it needs and restore an "old school" motel to a nice place.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Catalonia Playa Maroma; City: Playa Maroma Playa del Carmen Yucatan Peninsula; Review: True to other reviews, this property is very popular with Europeans, which was very nice in my view. Well-behaved kids, everyone enjoying themselves and decidedly un-spring break. This is not a fall down drunken spring break, thumping destination. It's absolutely beautiful, relaxing and above all, the staff was superb. The beach was unbelievable and the surf swimming was so nice. You are not harassed by strolling vendors and there are plenty of beach loungers regardless of whether you opt for regular guest or the "privileged" upgrade. I was a rare solo traveler here. It was mostly couples and families. I stayed in the newly refurbished Coba building and the rooms are huge, very comfortable and lovingly cared for, as are the grounds. There are little, gentle creatures called coatis patrolling the grounds - highly amusing. The dining options are great, if not geared toward more general tastes, but there is so much to choose from. The breakfast buffet is amazing. I would not hesitate to re-book at this resort.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Wallace Manor Bed and Breakfast; City: Cleveland Ohio; Review: Wallace Manor is the B&B to stay in Cleveland. It is a beautifully restored stone house in a well-located, historic part of town. The interiors are true to the period of the home, but all the amenities are up to date - no creaky stairs. The rooms and beds are the kind you don't want to get out of; the bathrooms are beautiful (heated tile floors in the room I stayed in) and Scott, your host, did the restoration, so he can explain the details and challenges of what it took to bring this home to its current, beautiful condition. There are well-appointed parlors and salons on the main floor to have a drink and hang out, plus a spacious balcony out front. It is peaceful and quiet with the upstairs rooms looking into the canopies of mature trees on the lot. Scott, couldn't be more helpful, gracious and accommodating, and he's no slouch in the kitchen either; the breakfasts are wonderful - blueberry waffles with bacon, fresh fruit, different kinds of coffees, juice, quiches, and all the fixings. All the details are thought of (free wi-fi too). I'll be staying here on my next trip to Cleveland!; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Everglow; Brand: Mae; Review: With their sophmore release "The Everglow" Mae has reduced themselves to nothing more then just another mainstream pop rock band as they stray away from their roots. Their first cd could be compared to the likes of amazing bands like Death Cab for Cutie and Coheed and Cambria but with this new mediocre release they degrade themselves by being just another pop/rock band. I like alot of the stuff taht Tooth and Nail puts out but they have a handful of bands that just won't make it such as Thousand Foot Krutch, Project 86, and now Mae. A sad downfall for a band with much potential.; Rating: 3.0/5.0

It's a war of love and friendship filled with twist and turns. If I am being honest some of the erotica was beyond my comfort zone. Other than that I love the way Pam weaved the story. I cried and cheered and cried some more. I'm in awe of how relationships were repaired in ways I never thought possible. Thank you for an ending that I didn't see coming. I would love to see a happy ending written for the one Danni didn't end up with ***hint hint Pam***; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Pentax BG2 Battery Grip for Pentax K10D and K20D DSLR Cameras (Retail Packaging); Brand: Pentax; Review: If you get a Pentax camera compatible with BG2 battery Grip like the Pentax K10D, you should get this item.

The camera will look better, feels better and will be easier to use even if you are not a Pro. I am an amateur myself, and definitively make it easier to take photos with it; will give stability to the camera specially if you uses larger lenses.

Title: Large CQC 4KXL Pocketknife from Kershaw-Emerson (6055) Delivers Durability and Classic Strength with Instant Open, Frame; Brand: Kershaw; Review: The knife is solid.

Title: PEOPLE SOCKS Mens, Womens, 4 Pairs Anti microbial Small Medium Merino Wool Crew Socks Made in USA; Brand: People Socks; Review: These are moderately warm and cushiony. Your feet aren't going to be burning up in summer, and they're not going to be miracle hot in winter either, but they are definitely an improvement over cotton socks. They're not too hot for summer hikes either while keeping your feet cushioned in your hiking shoes. Noticeable improvement on toe & sole blisters. I am a repeat customer who's bought the low cut socks for summer hiking and the crew socks for winter. These are my only experience with wool socks so I can't compare it to other brands, but the price was too good to pass up since REI had wool socks for sale for $15 for just 1 pair, yeesh. To make sure I wear them all out evenly, I don't wash or wear any of my socks until all pairs have been worn, then i'll wash the batch of them and allow them to air dry before wearing them again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: RFID Blocking Leather Wallet, Slim Thin Minimalist Pocket Wallets Card Holder; Brand: Oryer; Review: It has taken years to work down from a traditional wallet to something minimalist. This is a pretty good minimalist wallet. I can't speak for the RFID blocking, not sure how to test that. If you have cards in all slots, the main pocket can be difficult to open as they stiffen the walls of the wallet. My wallet had a thumb hole in the clear plastic. Some reviews state theirs did not come with it. even with this thumb hole it still requires you to grab your ID from the top. It's not loose enough to slide out from the thumb hole for me. The contents stay in place really well. While the outside cards can be removed fairly easily, the pocket contents are not. This is still a good place to start if you're looking to slim down your pocket bulk, however I might try something else. This is still a good wallet to take on a hike, or concert or bar (or for me, everywhere) that you want to travel light and just have the necessities.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Merrell Moab Ventilator Wide Width Men 11.5; Brand: Merrell; Review: My favorite Merrells to date are the Merrell Geomorph Maze Stretch, but I can't find them anymore. So far, these are a close second in comfort. There is a shoe similar to the Geomorph Maze (Chameleon Prime Stretch), but it doesn't feel the same at all, and though it is similar to my favorite, it's a 3-star shoe in my opinion. The Ventilators are good for a narrow to normal foot and have good arch support, and wrap around your foot perfectly. I replaced the laces with Lock Laces and they're fantastic to hit the trails on.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Thin Web Belt Double D-Ring Buckle 1.25" Wide with Metal Tip Solid Color; Brand: BC Belts; Review: This was a replacement belt for another similar one of mine that got shredded. Overall this is still a great belt for the price and it did exactly what I wanted it to. + Very thin belt. perfect for light pants or shorts - Wish the tip was folded sewn instead of a metal clip. I may remove it and do this manually. - belt a tad shorter than I expected. I have a 32" waist and there was not enough length to fold the excess over the top to let the excess hang down, so sometimes the metal tip scratches me on the sides when leaning over; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Opna Men's Long Sleeve Moisture Wicking Athletic Shirts; Brand: Opna; Review: 5'6" 140lbs. I ordered a size down as i figured I should after reading reviews. the shirt is still a little loose even though i got a small when i should fit (barely in the range) for a medium. It was still a welcome mid-summer purchase for the cost, considering all the local stores and name brands have their prices jacked upwards of $30 per shirt. + Sleeve length. In spite of the shirt being a little loose with 1 size down, it still fits well all the way down to my wrists and doesn't ride up my forearms when testing for range of motion. I have slender/normal shoulder width but long arms (70.5" armspan). +/- 100% polyester. you may or may not like it. it works well enough, though most of the athletic shirts I have are 90/10 (polyester/spandex). the 90/10 seem to stay more snug on me. While it doesn't quite have the feel and comfort i'm used to, it still works, and has served as a great backup to my brand-name shirts.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hanes Mens Cool DRI Tagless Men's T-Shirt (4820); Brand: ; Review: 5'6" 138lbs Size ordered: small (black & green) These shirts were just a smidge on the small side. While small, they're still definitely usable. I mainly ordered small because every other brand I get I choose a small and it's semi-loose fitting and almost a medium size. These aren't tight on me but they are not loose fitting. A medium would have been more casual I think for this brand. For the cost, it wasn't worth returning considering they're still great, i'll just order a size up next time.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

It does state entertainment every night but one night we had none at all also the bedroom we had was very small for a double & did not have a shower we found this to be a real pain as we both prefer a shower to a bath , we found the staff very friendly & always willing to help , the bar prices were reasonable apart from soft drinks which we thought were very expensive £1:60 for a small bottle of coke .; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Vincci Flora Park; City: Hammamet Nabeul Governorate; Review: A really nice hotel but the only drawback is you cannot get away from smokers my wife & I went in November & when we visited the bar it was very bad a gentleman was puffing away on a pipe when we went back to our room we both stank of smoke also the lady on reception was friendly one minute then very rude the next the chef making the pancakes in the mornings was absolutely wonderful food very good always a choice but our main gripe was not the hotels fault it was the pests who kept coming up to you saying hi you remember me I am your chef waiter or security guard do not get taken in they can get really nasty & they do get violent if you do not give them money; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Premier Inn Burton On Trent East Hotel; City: Burton upon Trent Staffordshire England; Review: We really enjoyed our overnight stay at this hotel the service we received was excellent the reason I marked the room down was it was a bit small but we only used it for one night very good restaurant next to the hotel we always try to have a meal deal excellent staff; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Schlage FE595CS V PLY 626 ELA Plymouth Light Commercial Electronic Keypad Lock with Elan Lever, Brushed Chrome; Brand: Schlage Lock Company; Review: I installed this lock on an out-building an hour ago, so this will be a simple review on installation and quality. The installation was straight forward as the directions were well written. Programming was also quite straight forward, but I've had a lot of experience with setting codes so I can see how this could be a bit tough for a first timer. Youtube has two great videos, one a straight forward installation guide, the second a detailed video on how to program the unit. I now have 6 different combinations programmed in mine, something I feel is a very nice feature. The Schlage lock is quite well built, and I feel it will be around fora long time. My next purchase will be a Schlage Keyless Deadbolt for my front door.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: IDEAcone Moon Light Lamp, Luna Moon Lamp, Modern Home 3D Printing; Brand: IDEAcone; Review: It's OK, but really just a gimmick, and not sanitary at all. The unit hangs into the upper rim of the toilet where bacteria abounds. Young children are apt to pick the light up to play with it, it is quite an attraction for the young. The light is programmable so you can choose your own color. That lasted about two days, then it started changing colors at will, not my will. Get a night light. If you really like this one, find someplace to hang it other than in the toilet. YUK!; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Schlage BE365VCAM716 Camelot Keypad Deadbolt, Aged Bronze; Brand: Schlage Lock Company; Review: I bought one, loved so bought 2 more! I spend a lot of time outside and rarely carry keys. I'm always frustrated to get to one of the three entry doors to my house to find it locked. These combination locks eliminate that frustration. They are easy to install and to program. You can enter several combinations if you so desire. You can easily set a combination to let somebody in, then eliminate that combination when access to that person is no longer necessary. The deadbolt is strong and quite secure.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Mr. Beams MB720A Sleep Friendly Battery-Powered Motion-Sensing LED Stick-Anywhere Nightlight with Amber Color Light (1-Pack), White; Brand: Mr. Beams; Review: Work like a charm. My wife andI have them leading the way to the bathroom. We simply place them on the floor, one on each side of the bed, facing away from the bed so they don't activate when we roll over, but turn on as soon as we get out of bed. They light up the path quite well.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Tools_and_Home_Improvement |

Title: Panasonic EY6450GQKW 18-volt NiMH 1/2-inch Cordless Drill/Driver Kit; Brand: Panasonic; Review: I've owned this for a few weeks now and am very happy with it. Highest marks for battery life of course, I work with aluminum and this will put more holes and screws in 1/4 inch stock than any other. Typically lasts a day of fairly steady use on one charge. Also thrilled with the cold weather performance. Doesn't seem to be phased by temps in the single digits unlike NiCad or Lithium and still takes a charge well (my reason for returning my last new "compact tough" was horrible low temp performance). Although there are other brands that claim more torque I can't see how, I buried 4 inch lags in a maple log on day one to test it, which I couldn't do with a corded 3/8 chuck. Also seems tough, taken multiple 3 ft falls onto concrete and a 6 fter into snow, though only time will really tell. Only downside is the weight, especially the battery but I feel it's well worth it. Lack of bit holders (except between batt and drill base?!) is inconvenient but glue ons are available.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Metabo W8-115 4-1/2-Inch Angle Grinder; Brand: Metabo; Review: If only it could be a little slimmer for low-strain one handed use it would be perfect. The most powerful grinder I've ever used, superb balance for minimal vibration (no, it's not just a talking point) and all the other features you can read about up above make this the one to buy if you're serious about what you do. And still made in Germany.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: PORTER-CABLE PC750AG 7.5 Amp Small Angle Grinder; Brand: PORTER-CABLE; Review: I borrowed one of these when mine died and I was in a pinch. It really does make some scary noises starting and stopping and has poor balance, but I can see it filling a low cost, low demand niche. Wouldn't recommend for extended metal grinding or other highly demanding tasks, probably fine for fiberglass, buffing and the like. That said, I did use this for metal work intermittently for 2 days without issue, but I got it back ASAP so that it wouldn't break on my shift. Not bad for the money, but know that you're going to get what you pay for, on the best of days... Oh, and whoever designed that "stay on" button should be fired, don't they know you're supposed to wear gloves when grinding, and that the button is impossible to push when wearing said PPE?; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Craftsman 7 Piece Metric Locking Flex Ratcheting Combination Wrench Set; Brand: Craftsman; Review: Very good product. Longer than competitors for better leverage, locking head doesn't slop around like most others, and USA made. This is the quality that made Craftsman great once upon a time, let's bring it back.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Wiss M2R 9-3/4" Compound Action Snips, Cuts Straight to Right; Brand: Wiss; Review: EDIT - I see some weekend warriors don't know their facts. I use snips almost every day, read my link in the comments or don't, but don't try to tell people that casting is superior. It is cheaper, and that's the only reason some companies prefer it. Back to the review - Word is that Wiss has switched from forging to casting, which is not desirable in this application. Whatever the reason, these do not hold up like better brands anymore. I've seen several Wiss bite the dust on identical material which I chewed right through with my Midwest snips, also US made. Wiss is not up to the standard they once were. Additionally, the blades will not stay tight despite the nylon locknut, I'm constantly retightening them. Chances are if you're looking at a pair of these as opposed to offset snips, these would suit your needs just fine, but I'd still recommend the Midwest version, about the same price, and they'll be there when you need to cut something heavier.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: CLC Custom Leathercraft 1020 31-44-Inch Tool Lanyard; Brand: Custom Leather Craft; Review: This thing is really stiff. If you're looking to build your shoulder caps, or only need to extend past your elbows a few times a day, go for it. Otherwise, you will expend energy needlessly struggling just to reach the working point. I went with the Gearkeeper super coil.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Nuvo Lighting TK320 3-Light Step-Cylinder Track-Lighting Kit, White; Brand: Nuvo Lighting; Review: The square fixtures accepted all the LED bulbs I tried. Triangle bulbs wouldn't fit behind the glass but I removed that anyway and just have the bulbs held in by the retaining ring around the perimeter. These classic yet modern straight tracks and fixtures looks much better than the curved tracks HD is pushing lately, which will soon go the way of wallpaper in my opinion. So they look nice, and aside from pulling wires through finished walls, the installation couldn't have been easier.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: HitLights LED Strip Lights, Warm White, 16.4'ft 300LED‘s 3000K 72Lumens per Foot (12V DC Tape; Brand: HitLights; Review: The 5 watt singles and 5 watt packs are different. The pack I received was actually 4.5 watt and had many fewer, brighter LEDs. Great color reproduction out of both anyway (warm white bulbs), and they seemed brighter than many others including Jacky (unimpressive) despite having a lower lumen rating. Not as bright as Torchlight 7 watt but much warmer light. I ordered a bunch to try and these were my favorite which is why I came back for the pack. If you want matching LED patterns in the bulbs, be aware that if you order around this review time you will probably get different LED layouts from a pack vs single. I am lighting an entire living room with 3 of these bulbs and 1 Torchlight 7w, 14' x 20'. The bulbs are 12' high and work fine for most applications without any supplemental light. In the pic you can see one of the singles, one of the pack bulbs, and the Torchlight, in that order.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: 1X LED GU10 4W; Brand: ; Review: I HATE it when sellers continually pester me by email for reviews and feedback! Yes, Jacky LED is one of those sellers. But since they asked, I also am not pleased with their bulbs, should probably send them back now that I think about it. They claim 500+ lumens on this one I believe, it was either the dimmest or second dimmest bulb I tried of the many I tested, with their other bulb being dimmest runner-up. Both were outperformed by 400 lumen bulbs even - the specs are dishonest. It is also a very cool (literally) light. If you want bright I recommend the Torchstar 7w, if you want warm and almost as bright I recommend Hitlights. Here's your freakin review, Jacky. Now leave me alone!; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Canarm IVL420A03CH9 Rikki 3-Light Bath Vanity Light; Brand: Canarm; Review: It looks pretty nice but not like it cost more than $100. Metal is thin and construction feels cheap generally. Puts out a decent amount of light and shades are well positioned. The thing that really soured me to the point of leaving a review with this fixture is that they don't provide you with electrical box screws. Absolutely necessary to be able to use this, but says right on the instruction sheet "install backing plate with electrical box screws (not included)". Stock item, same size and pitch since 1925, comes with every other light and even the $.50 outlets at HD, but not this $100+ fixture. Fortunately after searching the basement I was able to find some but almost had to drive to the hardware store for 2 dinky screws to have light to brush my teeth, unbelievable! Was debating to keep or return based on looks/value, would not buy again for retail price.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: US-15-TL, Tool Leash, 15 lb Working Limit, Single Carabiner Tool Lanyard. Designed, Tested and Built in the USA. (1); Brand: Campingandkayaking; Review: Good product, good price. One of the plastic hardware pieces arrived broken but it still works, not sure how well they'll hold up but a few months in and still good. They have a longer reach than even the extended gearkeeper type, and much longer than CLC. Best I've found.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: KES Towel Bar, Bathroom Shelf Double Rod 24 Inch Brushed SUS 304 Stainless Steel Wall Mount Rack Contemporary; Brand: Kes; Review: Works, stylish.

Title: AKDY Bathroom Luxury 3 Setting Multi-Function Chrome Finish Massage Jet Mist Style Handheld Shower Head; Brand: AKDY; Review: Nice patterns, I don't need 83 of them so this was perfect.

To set default start time or max run time (on or 60 nmin) pull tab at base of face, then hold button while pushing tab back in.

Title: Wyndham Skyline Tower; City: Atlantic City New Jersey; Review: Great girls (one 27 and two 30 years old) weekend getaway at the Wyndham, it was my first time at a timeshare. We NEVER got bothered by timeshare representatives. No phone calls, NOTHING. I'm a pretty difficult person when it comes to sleeping in another place than home. I do travel a lot. Check in was fast. Room was very clean. We didn't have sheets for the sofa-bed but we called the reception (twice) and we received clean ones in about 20-30 minutes. The bed in the master bedroom is HUUUUUUGE. Bathroom was clean. We didn't use the kitchen and appliances, but we were well equiped to make a meal if we needed to. About the safety, we never had any problems and we came back to the hotel at about 11-12am each night, and we always felt safe. We did notice that the elevator can be quite slow sometimes (it happened maybe twice). We had to take the stairs the day of the check out because it was a sunday at 11am, and many tavelers were leaving. We were at the 10th floor and taking the stairs wasn't that bad and much more faster than waiting for the elevator on our check out day. I would recommand this hotel if you don't mind not having a casino. (we weren't there to gamble and the Taj Mahal is right next door).; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Royal William; City: Quebec City Quebec; Review: Satay there on february 17th for work. great room, HUGE BED, HUGE BATHROOM, HUGE ROOM. Jacuzzi in bathroom was amazing. Bed very confortable. Close to many good restaurant and to all Quebec City has to offer.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Quality Hotel Abaca Messidor Paris; City: Paris Ile de France; Review: We stayed at thus hotel from august 28-sept. 4. Hotel is situated a few steps from the Convention metro and like many said near Monoprix and a couple restaurants. DO GET THE 5 DAYS metro pass if you're there for a couple of days it's about 28 euros, WORTH IT. They also have a 7 days pass but it starts on every monday and you need to bring a passeport or machine type photo. We could get it since we got there on a thursday. But everywhere we went we needed to take the metro so the 5 days pass was just GREAT!!!! Metro is very easy and about 20 mintues from all the museums and other attractions. We want twice to restaurant called La Source next to the convention metro, it was ok but not great. We want to coffe chop which is on the right side of the hotel after the Monoprix and it was good. Staff was always nice, since we speak french we had no problem. I recommend this hotel, it is not in the main action of Paris so that's why it's a good value and restaurants near by are not over priced. Do try the shows like Lido, Moulin Rouge or Crazy horse, it's about 80-100$/person but well worth the money, show comes with a bottle of champagne (1/2 bottle/person). We tried the Lido show and LOVED it. Try the restaurant "L'entrecote" it's near Champ Elysée and it's a chain restaurant so you'll find them using the net. It was DELICIOUS. If you need to buy some "Foie gras" ask the front desk, there's a store about 5 minutes walk from the hotel after the convention metro on Vaugirard it's called "La comptesse..." something, I forgot the name, and near that store there's also a wine store called Nicolas. If your breakfast is included, great one less thing to worry about. But if it's not it's about 15 euros/person per night and NOT worth it. It's not THAT good, first and second day I had eggs but rest of the time just ate croissant and cheese. There's a few restaurant nearby and a bakery where you can get fresh croissant and bread (opens around 6-7am) or you can go to Monoprix. Only 1 con: *they gave us two double bed that they pushed together, but after the first night we were so tired every night we didn't even care. They are so many things I can say about this great city, you can always contact me and it will be my pleasure to answer your questions.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Refuge; City: Mont Tremblant Quebec; Review: We stayed here for two nights for a little R&R outside the city. The owner is very friendly and helpful. We stayed in the Studio which is big, very private and had everything we needed (tv, dvd, seating area, small fridge). The B&B is at a 20minutes walk from the Tremblant ski resort and all the shops and restaurants, it's less than a 5 minutes drive. Breakfast was ok (but my husband say i'm difficult, so I guess everybody else would find it good). Let's say that there was choice and we didn't leave hungry in the morning. Coffee was very good. Other than that it was amazing, relaxing and I would go back, probably this summer.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Riu Caribe; City: Cancun Yucatan Peninsula; Review: Great stay. room and hotel was average. Cancun has lot of partying travellers. I gotta say it was the low season but the hotel was still very loud. Buffet was very good, lots of variety and quality food. The green cactus dring was just AMAZING and sooooo healty on top of that. I preffered the buffet from all the À la carte restaurant. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was very good at the buffet. I found the water in the pool wasn't that clean but it had nothing to do with the cleaning staff but all to do with the hotel guests. The beach is not the nicest. In 7 days I think I want in the water once. I don't think it's a family hotel. Lots of loud youngsters. Going out in the cuty and in the club was great. loads of fun. If you go to Cancun don't miss going out once or twice. I personnaly wouldn't go back.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Quality Inn; City: Spring Valley New York; Review: Stayed at this hotel for one while on a shopping road trip. Clean hotel, nice comfortable beds. Bathroom in need of a little fresh paint but other than that rom was very nice (and I'm pretty picky). We did try the complimentary breakfast so I really can't comment on that. We had breakfast at the I hop which is at a walking distance from hotel. There's is access to the hotel internet in the lobby, a pool and a few shops near. This is a nice basic hotel. Don't expect posh, trendy hotel, because this is not it. But does the job.; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | hotelrec |
