Given the interaction history of a user with books as follows:
Title: The Blue Mirror; Author: Kathe Koja; Genres: young-adult, children, paranormal, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: Re-read this after two years or so, and I can't say I really liked it a second time. I think I liked it more the first time I read it. I found a lot of things this time around while reading it that irritated me, and I guess it just took a second time to see those things clearly. It's an okay book for teenagers, and it's a really easy small read, but I don't think I'd read it again.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Dead Witch Walking (The Hollows, #1); Author: Kim Harrison; Genres: thriller, crime, paranormal, fiction, fantasy, romance, mystery; Review: Even the second time reading this I'm still in love with this series.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Annie on My Mind; Author: Nancy Garden; Genres: fiction, young-adult, romance; Review: This book is what helped me fall asleep at night, because it was that bad. I really can't go into detail any more on HOW bad this book was.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Forbidden Secrets (Fear Street Sagas, #3); Author: R.L. Stine; Genres: history, young-adult, thriller, children, crime, paranormal, biography, historical fiction, fiction, fantasy, mystery; Review: Creepy yet amazingly good. Another astonishing book by none other than R.L. Stine.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Hunger Games (The Hunger Games, #1); Author: Suzanne Collins; Genres: young-adult, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: Absolutely loved this book. I sat down and in one day I read over 200 pages because I simply could not and would not put this book down. There were so many times it left me teary eyed and awestruck..but I just could not stop reading. The only thing I have to say is I wish Katniss wouldn't have been so oblivious about the feelings between her and Peeta. I hope this is resolved. I hated how it ended on a sour note between the two of them.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty (Sleeping Beauty, #1); Author: A.N. Roquelaure; Genres: history, paranormal, biography, historical fiction, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: I would not recommend this to anybody who doesn't understand BDSM or the extremely kinky side of life. This book is purely based on slavery and forced erotica(Forced from other people's point of view, it's really not forced for the people in the book after so long, at first it's forced and later on you find out that it's more consensual then you'd think.) It's not something that a lot of regular erotica reading fans would like. Simple explanation: Too much spanking, not enough detail, the detail that was there was nothing that should be considered "erotic." It was laughable. I love Anne Rice but I did not like this book. I had to force myself to finish it and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children (Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children, #1); Author: Ransom Riggs; Genres: history, young-adult, romance, thriller, children, crime, paranormal, biography, historical fiction, fiction, fantasy, mystery; Review: cannot finish this book..just so uninteresting.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Fifty Shades of Grey (Fifty Shades, #1); Author: E.L. James; Genres: young-adult, romance, fiction; Review: The writing style left a lot to be desired. I did like it to a point. I read a review that mentioned how she uses "Oh my" a lot, and I didn't realize it till after reading the review and kind of laugh at how much she really does say it. Other than the writing being a bit amateurish for my taste it was okay.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Deadly Little Secret (Touch, #1); Author: Laurie Faria Stolarz; Genres: young-adult, romance, thriller, crime, paranormal, fiction, fantasy, mystery; Review: Twilight much?; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Living Dead Girl; Author: Elizabeth Scott; Genres: young-adult, thriller, crime, fiction, mystery; Review: It's twisted in more than one way. Ways I don't even feel to type, but I loved this book. It made me feel things that no book has ever made me feel. Disgust being one of them. This book evokes so much feeling that it's hard to get through it without crying ONCE for this poor soul. It makes me want to grab hold of my children when I have them and never let them go because of something like this even being remotely possible.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Warm Bodies (Warm Bodies, #1); Author: Isaac Marion; Genres: young-adult, romance, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: I finished Warm Bodies in one day. It was that amazing. I can't begin to describe how much I loved this book. It's on my list of favorites. I don't really grasp why it was so amazing to me but the basic ideals of it, and some of the humor just made it fit so perfectly together that I had the HARDEST time putting it down when I had to. Every time I were to put it down there was this part in the back of my head saying "Pick it back up. Read it. You know you want to." and so I did, and I finished it within one day. Starting from 3pm till 2am.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Angel Arias (Night Creatures, #2); Author: Marianne de Pierres; Genres: young-adult, romance, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: I found it very slow in the beginning and it didn't really pick up until the last 100 pages for me. I love this series so far, I just hope the next book isn't so slow..that's my main problem.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Blood Promise (Vampire Academy, #4); Author: Richelle Mead; Genres: young-adult, romance, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: Though I love this series very much, I really could have lived without reading this book. I mean it took soooo long just to get to the main event of the book. Almost 400 pages of waiting, and by the time I got to the point I was so worn out of the book it was more of a "OH THANK GOD." then a "YAY~ SO EXCITED TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS." I just wanted it to end. I understand that in your writing career you hit bumps along the way and may write a book that's a teensy bit boring, but this was a bit much. I mean don't get me wrong the information in the book was needed, and it made sense when everything hit the fan, but it just felt like a decade before anything even remotely interesting happened. Ugh. Hence the 3 stars.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Royal Blood (Vampire Kisses, #6); Author: Ellen Schreiber; Genres: young-adult, romance, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: Can't really say this was my favorite book out of the series but it wasn't bad, it just lacked the excitement that I was looking for, but even without the excitement it was still a fairly decent book.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Coffin Club (Vampire Kisses, #5); Author: Ellen Schreiber; Genres: young-adult, romance, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: It never got boring which I find most series do after a certain amount of books and I was really surprised by the ending.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Dance with a Vampire (Vampire Kisses, #4); Author: Ellen Schreiber; Genres: young-adult, romance, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: Just like all the other books. It was good.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: A Darkness Strange and Lovely (Something Strange and Deadly, #2); Author: Susan Dennard; Genres: history, young-adult, romance, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, biography, historical fiction, fantasy, fiction; Review: No words can even begin to express how much I love this book.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: My Soul to Take (Soul Screamers, #1); Author: Rachel Vincent; Genres: young-adult, romance, thriller, crime, paranormal, fiction, fantasy, mystery; Review: I have read better. It wasn't horrible, but I didn't think it captured me like many other books have.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Catching Fire (The Hunger Games, #2); Author: Suzanne Collins; Genres: young-adult, romance, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: So many feels in one book. I didn't even think it was possible.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Marbury Lens (The Marbury Lens, #1); Author: Andrew Smith; Genres: young-adult, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: This book is hard for me to rate really. I had such high hopes for this book, and I can't say I hated it, but I had a hard time saying I liked it. It wasn't a bad concept and I loved the gore. I've always been a big person with gore, but even with the gore this story got to me a bit. The constant repetition of certain sentences drove me crazy. I know it was supposed to be that way, but it irritated me. In general it was a good book, it was just slow for me.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Burned (Burned, #1); Author: Ellen Hopkins; Genres: poetry, romance, young-adult, fiction; Review: Horrible ending. Can't say that enough. Dislike, sooo much dislike.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Every Day (Every Day, #1); Author: David Levithan; Genres: young-adult, romance, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: I had a love hate relationship with this book. I feel bad for giving it such low stars, but I just couldn't seem to get into this book and like it all that much. I held my expectations a little too high for this book I guess, and I was let down. All together it was a good book, but not something I would read again.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Deadly Little Lies (Touch, #2); Author: Laurie Faria Stolarz; Genres: young-adult, romance, thriller, crime, paranormal, fiction, fantasy, mystery; Review: Amazimg book. I can't believe it gets better with each book. I can't wait till the next book. Couldn't put this one down.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Unravel Me (Shatter Me, #2); Author: Tahereh Mafi; Genres: young-adult, paranormal, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: So much better than the first book. I am so team Warner it isn't even funny. Uuugh.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Girl of Nightmares (Anna, #2); Author: Kendare Blake; Genres: young-adult, romance, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: It was a little slow in the beginning, but when it finally came down to the ending it made it where I couldn't put it down. LOVE.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Burn Bright (Night Creatures, #1); Author: Marianne de Pierres; Genres: young-adult, romance, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, fiction; Review: Slow beginning, but everything after was amazing. would have given a 5 star if not for that.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Fangirl; Author: Rainbow Rowell; Genres: fiction, young-adult, romance; Review: Such a good book, but what the hell kind of ending is that? Am I the only one who wanted to throw the book? And can I say that Cath really irritated me sometimes. This is why it gets 4 stars instead of 5.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Zombie Blondes; Author: Brian James; Genres: young-adult, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: It was lacking a lot. I didn't connect with any of the characters, and the4 main character made me want to rip my hair out. It was very slow for me as well. I found that it dragged on for a fairly long time and only till the last 20-30 pages did it pick up and finally get exciting. I was fairly disappointed in this book, it wasn't terrible but if I had a choice of a different book, I would go with the different book.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Angelfall (Penryn & the End of Days, #1); Author: Susan Ee; Genres: young-adult, paranormal, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: I wish I could give more stars to this book. I can't even begin to express my love for this book. I am so happy I decided to pick this one up. What a great start to a new reading year.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Wish List (Donovan Creed, #5); Author: John Locke; Genres: thriller, crime, fiction, mystery; Review: Surprisingly a really good and short read. Didn't think I would like it but I was wrong. Not normally something I would be into but it was a nice change.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Eon: Dragoneye Reborn (Eon, #1); Author: Alison Goodman; Genres: history, young-adult, paranormal, biography, historical fiction, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: Best. Book. Ever.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Eona: The Last Dragoneye (Eon, #2); Author: Alison Goodman; Genres: history, young-adult, paranormal, biography, historical fiction, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: I really wish I could give this more stars. It has to be my favorite book. I can't explain how much love I have for this series. I feel a great loss now that I know it is over.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Her Mad Hatter (Kingdom, #1); Author: Marie Hall; Genres: paranormal, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: It wasn't terrible and I've always loved the idea of the mad batter being with Alice so I did enjoy this.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Mockingjay (The Hunger Games, #3); Author: Suzanne Collins; Genres: young-adult, mystery, thriller, crime, paranormal, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: It was slower than the other books in my opinion, but it was still really good. It got REALLY depressing at the end that I got in a depressed funk myself, and even with the "happy" ending..I didn't feel that happy..at all. Now to wait till the movie and see how many people rage.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Throttle Me (Men of Inked, #1); Author: Chelle Bliss; Genres: romance, fiction; Review: It wasn't awful. It kept me engrossed and wanting to read more but it never really wowed me. There were points when I had to roll my eyes, but all in all it was a good read.; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | goodreads |

Title: Levi's Men's 541 Athletic Taper Fit Jean; Brand: ; Review: These jeans fit me perfectly. My friends even were excited because they look like they fit just right. All the other cuts were either completely baggy, or super tight on the thighs and butt while the waist still had a couple spare inches. I love this cut!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Champion Men's Full-zip Eco Fleece Hoodie Jacket; Brand: ; Review: Looks great and I am so comfortable in it! Yes, I'd definitely buy this again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

I really enjoy these and they're a great price. I especially love the rubber in the back to keep them from sliding!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: ActivFlex RocSports Lite Sport Mudguard Walking Shoe; Brand: ; Review: I love these shoes. It was my mistake for ordering a size too small. I forgot what supportive shoes feel like - but these things reminded me what support and comfort feel like. I wear these things to work and go for walks around the neighborhood- they're fantastic.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: ARCITON Men's Low Rise Leggings Long Johns Thermal Pant; Brand: ARCITON; Review: I'e already worn them into the cold - it was a much more bearable experience with these on. Plus, they're fun to lounge around the apartment in.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hanes Men's X-Temp Thermal Long-Sleeve Top; Brand: Hanes; Review: I love it. It's perfect for the winter. I usually wear it under my normal clothes because it's so cold. But, when lounging at home, it's great by itself!; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Clothing_Shoes_and_Jewelry |
Given the interaction history of a user with books as follows:
Title: Daughter of Time (After Cilmeri, #0.5); Author: Sarah Woodbury; Genres: history, paranormal, biography, historical fiction, fantasy, romance, fiction; Review: I simply don't understand the good ratings for these books, other than they could have been good, but simply were not.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: City of Dark Magic (City of Dark Magic, #1); Author: Magnus Flyte; Genres: history, young-adult, romance, thriller, crime, paranormal, biography, historical fiction, fiction, fantasy, mystery; Review: The ridiculous sex scenes in the beginning by a serious scholar almost made me stop. I am glad I did not because the bits about Beethoven and Prague, dark matter and so on were worthwhile. What I did not like was the perception that I was being played...meaning that, two authors combined to create a mythical writer like Castaneda and use every cliched genre gimmick they could find to create a bestseller. I do believe i read a story about someone doing that once, Olivia Goldsmith maybe? I couldn't decide if the authors were making jokes or their taste was just that bad.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Cat Daddy: What the World's Most Incorrigible Cat Taught Me About Life, Love, and Coming Clean; Author: Jackson Galaxy; Genres: history, comics, graphic, biography, historical fiction, non-fiction; Review: I found this to be a beautifully written and read book about how an animal or animals can save a human, body and soul. You will laugh and you will cry, but I found it moving beyond measure. He writes about the struggles of a creative person living outside of society and self-medicating to feel ok about not fitting in...if you cannot identify that, you might not enjoy it as much, but at the end, I could not believe how he wrote about the end of the cat's life. I could not have done it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: A Great and Terrible King: Edward I and the Forging of Britain; Author: Marc Morris; Genres: history, biography, historical fiction, non-fiction, fiction; Review: This is about the grandson of Bad King John, it is a detailed history without a lot of battle history or law but social history of the late 13th century. Unlike most biographers, the writer does not make the man into a hero that he clearly was not. It's a glimpse into a far distant time that is entirely relevant today.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: American Gods (American Gods, #1); Author: Neil Gaiman; Genres: thriller, crime, paranormal, fiction, fantasy, mystery; Review: I read the author's edition of this, because that is what came my way. I would not advise anyone to do the same if they take this book on. First, the author's edition didn't make the bestseller list, the chopped version did--and maybe I understand why. It's disjointed and clearly from a European perspective, not American, and honestly the Gods, and their stories were lame, there was such potential there to mine. And Shadow has terrible taste in women, and is really stupid if he's a demi-god or the offspring of Odin. Maybe if I read this in 97, I would have liked it better. Now, it's just OK; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Magicians (The Magicians #1); Author: Lev Grossman; Genres: paranormal, young-adult, fantasy, fiction; Review: I so didn't get Harry Potter. Why does anything magical have to be that? It is a coming of age story. I liked Quentin, at the age, everyone whines. I think it was brilliantly written new story and a twist on magic within the real world.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | goodreads |
Given the interaction history of a user with hotels as follows:
Title: Four Seasons Resort Marrakech; City: Marrakech Marrakech Tensift El Haouz Region; Review: Beautiful hotel situated close to town, not that you really want to leave. Fabulous room with lovely view. We were here with BMW for a conference and the food was terrible, boring and to be honest in edible. The pool service was poor, no one would come by and ask if we needed anything so 0 score there.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Rubens at the Palace; City: London England; Review: Loved the location just a few minutes walk from the Victoria Tube. The staff were very polite and professional. The rooms are clean nice but so ugly!!! We had a room that looked like a flower shop had thrown up everywhere and all the walls were padded. Nice bathroom great air-con, nice breakfast if its free as £19.50 is very expensive for egg on toast.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hilton Garden Inn Birmingham Brindleyplace; City: Birmingham West Midlands England; Review: My friend booked this hotel on a recent Bon Jovi concert, A great location to town and a short 15 minute walk from the train station. Clean comfortable rooms, excellent breakfast, we had a little issue with the AC not working but they moved us the next night and compt breakfast. Will recommend with families or solo.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Premier Inn London Victoria Hotel; City: London England; Review: Perfect for the quick UK trip. We were only a 3 minute walk from Victoria station, close to a lot of restaurants and the theatre for Wicked (a must see). The room was very basic, no safe in the room, but it was clean, good air con and wifi. Breakfast is a good deal at £9 especially when your in the center of London.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Sheraton Cerritos Hotel; City: Cerritos California; Review: Strange location, nestled in a business park, but worked for our needs, easy parking and no charge, good breakfast buffet or a nice choice al la cart menu. Comfy clean rooms with great air conditioning . We were SPG gold members so we received, free wifi, a free alcoholic drink and 2 free breakfasts. Great value!; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Wailua Bay View Condominiums; City: Kapaa Kauai Hawaii; Review: My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our week in Kauai and our stay at WBV 204!! This condo is very affordable, just lovely, and exactly as pictured with new living room furniture and a comfortable king bed. The unobstructed views of the ocean from the spacious lanai are next to none! The well equipped kitchen and gas grills in the pool area were perfect for people like us who eat lightly on vacation and prefer to cook many of our meals or pack picnics. There are good restaurants within walking distance though, for those who prefer to eat out. Kauai is great for hiking, day long scenic trips on well maintained highways or a day of running, walking, or biking on the very scenic bike trail which is right outside of the condo. Chuck is very good to work with and makes the booking process so simple. He answers questions quickly and has helpful links on his site to help in your planning. We highly recommend WBV 204 for anyone planning any length of stay in Kauai!!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lahaina Shores Beach Resort; City: Lahaina Maui Hawaii; Review: #615 condo is an absolutely beautiful, privately owned condo and everything that we wanted and needed! It can be found on vrbo. Not only does the unit itself have beautiful views and a clean lovely atmosphere, but Lahaina Shores itself is clean, well maintained, and the pool, hot tub, and lawns leading to the beach are just great. The unit is well equipped with beach chairs and equipment, books, a comfortable bed and other furniture, especially great lanai furniture to enjoy the ocean and sunsets. Remy, the concierge was friendly and knowledgeable and helped us plan many great excursions. There are many great restaurants within walking distance of this condo, although we prefer to shop for groceries and eat light when on vacation. The Safeway was only a mile away and took care of all our grocery needs, and the kitchen in the condo had everything we needed. We were there also at the time of the Maui Oceanfront Marathon which my husband ran and I did the 5K. It was well run and a great experience in paradise! We hope to come back in a few years and would definitely choose Unit 615 for another wonderful time in beautiful Maui!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Edison Times Square; City: New York City New York; Review: This is an older hotel right in the heart of Times Square with only minutes to walk to the Subway, TKTS booth or any of the shows. This was a third trip to New York to do sightseeing and shows and I would stay here again in a heartbeat!! The rooms are small and somewhat dated but everything from the toilet to the shower to the air conditioner worked perfectly. Maid service was great every day. Staff is friendly and helpful although don't see the "transportation" lady if you have any questions other than their shuttle service. She "doesn't know" about other means. The concierge is very, very helpful though! We used their cafe in the lobby only for morning coffee and the staff is not friendly. There are many places nearby for great food so you don't need to even set foot in there. We got a good price online and would stay again!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Best Western Plus Sparta Trail Lodge; City: Sparta Wisconsin; Review: Very clean and comfortable, great hot tub and pool, and friendly staff! The king room we had was in the corner on the third floor with a view of the sunset! Loved that! Staff was very flexible with an early check in and late check out. Great place to stay near the Sparta bike trail. Would recommend and would stay again!!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Trailhead Inn and Suites; City: Preston Minnesota; Review: This was our first trip to the Root River Trail area and it was a wonderful experience! We spent four nights at the Trailhead Inn in one of the two bedroom suites in the old renovated school! It was just great: quiet with a comfortable bed, a full kitchen, fresh fluffy linens, and a hot tub room right across the hall from our suite. There is also a sauna room and a nice front lawn area with a picnic table for happy hour after a long day of biking. The staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. We stayed the week after Labor Day which is especially quiet if you are like us and appreciate having the trails and accommodations almost to yourself. The trail is literally in the back parking lot of the Inn. Lanesboro is only eleven miles away by bike if you like shops, restaurants and busyness. We opted for the quiet town of Preston!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Country Inn Suites by Radisson Moline Airport IL; City: Moline Illinois; Review: This hotel has a great location right off the freeway and is very quiet for a night's stay! Great breakfast with a helpful,friendly staff! Perfect temperature in the how tub and in the pool room. The rooms are clean and nicely updated.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Apollo Condominiums; City: Marco Island Florida; Review: We spent three weeks in this great condo right on the beach at Marco Island. The view from the balcony is absolutely next to none!! The condo itself suited our needs just wonderfully with a comfortable bed and other furniture, nice bathroom with a great shower, comfortable chairs and dining set on the balcony for dolphin and sunset viewing, and a well stocked beach closet. We are runners who put many miles on our shoes out on a fairly level five and a half mile beach. We eat lightly on vacation, doing almost all of our own cooking and found the kitchen to be well equipped with appliances that worked well. The owners and manager were attentive to any needs we had or questions and were very easy to communicate with. We plan a return visit and highly recommend this unit!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Radisson on John Deere Commons; City: Moline Illinois; Review: This Radisson is very clean and upscale! It is convenient to all JohnDeere sites in the Quad city area. Even though it is downtown it is very quiet and private. We would stay again any time we are in the area.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Travelers Inn; City: South San Francisco California; Review: I had to stay another night in SSF and the last place I stayed for two nights was a dump. So I went right next door, not kidding, seriously, just right next door and got this VERY CLEAN, vacuumed, NON-smoking, large king size bed, working microwave, fridge, large flat screen TV and most importantly CLEAN SHEETS AND PILLOW CASES!!!!! The place was fantastic and I would stay there again any day of the year. The owner of the place was very friendly, very well mannered, respectful and just an all around fantastic help in getting me a room in such a short notice. Location was just perfect for the reason I was down there and just a short drive to two different malls to hang out in. Climate was good with working AC and heater, didn't need the heater, but y'all get the point. If you are looking for a really quaint, clean, and well kept up hotel, "Travelers Inn" is the place to go. I really do plan on staying there again and will definetly recommend this place to family and friends.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lahaina Inn; City: Lahaina Maui Hawaii; Review: When we were visiting Hawaii, this Inn was still open and we were so glad it was!!! We were greeted by the receptionist and she was really nice and let us keep our bags by the front desk while our room was getting cleaned. We went out and grabbed lunch at Cool Cats Cafe (see my other review of this fantastic little hamburger joynt). We came back, the receptionist showed us to our room, gave us the formal walk through and pass code for the wifi. Our room was the first one right up the stairs and it was charming, old school, comfortable beds, a lot of room to move about. The bathroom was nice and big, clean and the shower tub combo, both my sons loved it, they would either take a shower or just pretend they were sitting in a pool made for one. Everything worked, there was nothing broken or missing in the room, the balcony looked out onto a parking lot but that wasn't an issue. The Inn was within walking distance of everything and we are looking forward to booking a room there again when we plan another trip to the islands. We knew it was going through a renovation and we were told that it was going to be shut down in Sept. They were working on some rooms while we were there and were respectful to start work after 0930 hrs. When this Inn opens up again, hopefully soon, I would really recommend this place. read the other review of the person who didn't know. Sorry to hear about that, still this is a nice little inn right in the middle of everything.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Ramada by Wyndham Rockville Centre; City: Rockville Centre Long Island New York; Review: The hotel is pretty good, service when you first walk into register was great, someone helped me the moment I came up to the counter. They gave me a couple of suggestions for dinner. The room was on the second floor and it was windy as all hell. My room sounded like a wind tunnel. The room had a few issues, the faucet in the shower was off a little and so was the sink. TV was good and so was the DirecTV service, towels were clean and didn't have that funky Clorox smell. The neighbors were loud and rude, people yelling and stomping around. I was only staying 1 night, if I was staying longer I would have moved to a different hotel. Breakfast was good, had a good choice of bagels and Danish, coffee, OJ and apple juice. If you are staying a night, I would recommend this place, if staying more, locate something else. Still front desk was great and breakfast was good, just too much noise.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Rodeway Inn and Suites; City: New Paltz New York; Review: Walked in and had to wait for the lobby attendant, he was busy talking on his cell phone. After getting my room key, drove to the back like he said and walked in and the room was not bad at all actually, especially if you are only spending one night. The rug looked like it had not been vacuumed, let alone cleaned. Walked around the room with my shoes on for most of the time and then with my socks. Bathroom was okay, sink had some yellow staining around the edges but other than that it was alright. Towels looked clean but it had that heavy Clorox smell to it. Rooms were very quiet and the location of the hotel was pretty nice, easy on, easy off the main road. Not far away from all these restaurants and y'all need to read the reviews on some of the places. I had a pizza and it was screaming (wrote a review while eating the pizza in my room and watching the NY Islanders sweep the Penguins). This place claims it does a breakfast...….like I said in the title don't believe it. They had pieces of bread, coffee, and a those mini pound cakes that looked like it was baked back in 1947. And not even enough to spread out in the case to make it look full. It looked like they went to the nearby gas station mini mart and just bought the bargain priced expired products. Went to the McDonalds down the road instead. If you are able to spend the night elsewhere, do so, don't waste your time or money.; Rating: 2.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Inn at Corolla Light; City: Corolla Outer Banks North Carolina; Review: My fiance and I stayed here mid-May 2012 when we realized our rental house in the 4X4 area was infested with cockroaches. We were desperate to leave, and were so glad the Inn had a pet-friendly room for us. The receptionist was very nice and accommodating, and even allowed us to check in early. We were SO pleased when we arrived. We had done no prior research and really didn't know what to expect, but the room was clean and quaint and the innkeeper was incredibly nice and proud of his property and the recent renovations. We loved seeing (and hearing!) the other dogs on the premises when we arrived, as we were worried that our lab might be too much for a hotel/B&B. (We are always worried about disturbing other people when we travel with him, which is why we usually get a house.) Once we were in our room, we never heard the other dogs, but we really enjoyed seeing them when we were out and about. It was a very peaceful stay. We really enjoyed walking along the sound and making use of the free bikes that the Inn offered. Our room didn't have a sound view (it was on the first floor, facing the front of the establishment) and it wasn't one of the suites, but we found it to be very comfortable and spacious. It had a little refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker, and the beds were great. Our only complaint about our room was that it just had a shower stall and the shower curtain didn't reach the floor, so when we showered the bathroom floor got really wet. They might consider installing some type of barrier on the floor or putting in a glass door to keep the water from going everywhere. All in all, it was a pleasant stay, and we will definitely return with our dog!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Extended Stay America Washington D C Rockville; City: Rockville Montgomery County Maryland; Review: I stayed in this hotel in August 2014 for a work trip nearby. I know the area well, had my car, and didn't need a hotel that was within easy walking distance of a lot of things, so it worked out well. That said, the Rio Center in Gaithersburg is about a 15 minute walk (all sidewalk/side road without major roads or highways to walk on) and is a nice place to eat and shop. The hotel itself was average. I paid about $115 a night for a 4-night stay. The room wasn't modern but wasn't terribly outdated either. Towels and bedding were thin. Mattress not very firm. No major noise issues; the hotel's location on Research Blvd is tucked back off of Shady Grove Rd and Key West Ave, so there's not a lot of traffic noise. There is no gym and the continental breakfast is very basic -- granola bars, hard apples, average coffee. But with a kitchen in your room, it's easy enough to take a few staples from home and make your own. No critters. Free wifi. Front desk wasn't terribly knowledgeable, but I didn't need them for much. I'd recommend this hotel if you need an inexpensive place and won't be in your room a lot. That said, the Quality Suites on Piccard Drive in Rockville is cheaper and the rooms are much nicer and more modern.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Cambria hotel suites Rockville; City: Rockville Montgomery County Maryland; Review: I stayed at the new Cambria Hotel & Suites in Rockville using a combination of Choice Privileges Points and cash. Because it’s so nice, I’m afraid the prices starting to increase to match the reviews. When it first opened, the rates were much better. The rooms are very nice, big, modern, and clean. The bed was excellent. I was in a corner king suite that really felt like an apartment. If it had had a stove, it would have been! There were 2 flat screen TVs, a sectional couch, huge bathroom, etc. It was very spacious. If you are reading the TripAdvisor reviews, you will see that parking is $15/day and is in an awkward garage under the hotel. I didn’t have any problem finding it, but I can see how some people might. You basically need to drive up to the front of the movie theater, then go into the parking garage, and go down to levels G3 or G4. I detest parking garages, but couldn’t find cheaper parking with in-and-out service in the area. (In the hotel garage you can go in and out as much as you want for the flat fee.) The front desk staff didn’t seem very knowledgeable about other parking options. (Or maybe there just aren’t any.) I saw that another reviewer said that there was a free breakfast every morning, but that was not the case when I stayed there. It would be worth asking about. The restaurant was decent, but they do not offer room service. You have to go down to the bar to pick up your food (no big deal). Unfortunately, they sent me up to my room with a tray of food on plates, rather than in take-out containers. It was very hard to get into my room with the room key while carrying the tray. Then, the following day, housekeeping did not remove the dirty dishes, so I had to take the tray back down. My advice to the hotel restaurant would be to offer take-out containers if they are not going to do full room service. There are decent restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. It’s a very cute area and is close to the red line metro. Overall, I had a really great experience at this hotel, and would highly recommend it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Comfort Inn Shady Grove; City: Gaithersburg Montgomery County Maryland; Review: I stayed in this hotel in July 2015 and got a rate that was less than $100 per night. Decent rate for the area. Parking was pretty cramped in the small lot, but I could always park. (Parking is free.) The room was a bit dated and a little dirty, but spacious enough. Gym was nice. Breakfast (free) had a lot of selections - including Dunkin Donuts from the nearby store. Staff was really nice and helpful. I wouldn't recommend staying here if you want to get out and walk around and go to restaurants, etc. It's right on the corner of Shady Grove and 355. Loud, nothing really great within walking distance. But, if you have a car, it's one of the nicer rooms in the area for this level of hotel. There are lots of nicer hotels (Marriotts, etc.) at a higher price in more desirable areas, but they are more expensive. As I said, this is one of the better choices for a 3-star hotel.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Washington Marriott Wardman Park; City: Washington DC District of Columbia; Review: Very large conference hotel. We stayed as a family over the weekend to take in DC sites with a toddler. Our room was in the Center Tower and was fully renovated. Very nice, but also on the small side -- especially with pack-n-play that the hotel provided. Bathrooms are VERY small. That said, the service was terrific, and the hotel was very clean and modern. It's also very conveniently located on the red line metro. Go directly to the Marriott Web site to find inclusive rates. We got the "Zoo Package," which included parking at the hotel (we valet parked every day and it was included with the rate, not charged to our room), free wifi, free breakfast from the buffet or menu in Stone's Throw Restaurant (good food, great service!), plus a few extra perks for the zoo (carousel tickets, a stuffed panda, zoo map). Nice touch! We got all that for a $189/night rate, which I thought was terrific considering that parking otherwise would have cost $41/day for self parking and $46 for valet, and breakfast would have been over $20 per person in the hotel. Even if you aren't going to the zoo, it's worth it to check out this package! They also have package rates that include room and parking. Again, probably a better deal given the parking costs, so check out the hotel Web site directly, as I doubt you can see all the inclusive packages on Expedia or one of the other travel Web sites. I would definitely stay here again, though I might ask for a larger room for a family, if there are any available.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

The cottage was immaculate and has absolutely every comfort you could ever ever wish for. The fact that we could bring our two labradors and have our family over to stay was a huge plus. Deborah & Martin were the most welcoming of hosts and the breakfast basket was second to none! Even the snow that came with a flourish could not spoil the weekend.

Title: Holiday Inn Express Manchester East; City: Manchester Greater Manchester England; Review: We needed pet friendly accommodation and before we booked this particular hotel I contacted the hotel directly and spoke to a member of staff to check several things about their pet policy. I asked if it would be possible to bring 2 dogs both of whom are well behaved, the answer was yes, no problem. I asked if there were any restrictions on where the dogs could go in the hotel and grounds, I was told no restrictions at all. I asked if it would be ok to sit in the bar during the evening and for the dogs to be there to, I was told that would not be a problem. Fabulous news and as we do not like leaving our dogs in strange rooms on their own and based on the information we had been given, I booked for two nights for a total of £220. On check in on the Friday teatime, I double checked the information and asked about the breakfast area. I was told from the girl at the reception desk that they were not allowed in the restaurant but we could sit in the bar area with the dogs and have breakfast there. That was absolutely great. So first morning, we had breakfast in the bar area, the dogs lay down, and all was well. On Saturday evening, having been out since 9.20am that morning, we came back to the hotel at 9pm, sat in the bar away from other residents and took one sip of our drinks. The duty manager - Anthony Robinson stood behind the reception desk and called for our attention and asked us to leave as the dogs were not allowed in the bar area due to health and safety rules. When I approached the reception desk and advised him about my previous conversations with his staff, I was told that he needed to address the pet policy with his staff and if the dogs were only small it would have been a different matter. However because they are Labradors, they are not allowed. This gentleman said it was policy everywhere not to allow dogs in areas where they serve food, yet on the same day we had lunch in a very nice pub restaurant in the Macclesfield area with other members of my family and the dogs and we made very welcome. Both of my dogs are extremely well behaved - one in fact is an ex guide dog. To say we felt humiliated and disappointed is an understatement, and I do not think that calling for our attention from the reception desk across the bar in front of other people was a very professional approach at all. We will not be letting this complaint rest.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: The Alexandra Court Hotel; City: Congleton Cheshire England; Review: Stayed at this lovely little hotel for one night with our dog. The owners and the staff were very friendly & welcoming. Our room was immaculate. Gardens are really pleasant to sit in and relax and watching the guys work so hard for a wedding the following day, they really do deserve praise and success.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Ibis Reims Tinqueux; City: Tinqueux Reims Marne Grand Est; Review: We had booked a stop over night both on the way to the south of France & returning to the UK. On a positive note the hotel staff were welcoming & pleasant and the hotel & room was clean although a little tired in the décor. The restaurant was ok & the menu has vegetarian options on it. However we found the rooms to be small, stuffy & hot. The room doors are the noisiest doors to close and all night the banging & clattering of other guests walking & talking in the corridors did not make for a restful nights sleep. On our return we asked if a larger room was available but sadly we were told that all of the rooms were the same size and that the hotel was full. The hotel could really do with better sound proofing.; Rating: 2.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Makita BTW450Z 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/2" High Torque Impact Wrench, Tool Only; Brand: Makita; Review: I used to make my living as an auto mechanic. I used a friends Dewalt cordless 1/2" impact wrench and was very impressed but when I saw the price I backed off. I own several other makita tools that use the same lithium-ion battery and have been very happy with them. When this unit came up for less than half the price of the Dewalt I jumped. I still own a 1/2" air impact and this cordless wrench appears to have as much power as the air wrench. It is heavy especially with the battery but at least there is no hose attached to it. I like the shock absorbing battery mount. I think that's a great idea.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Oykun Hotel; City: Fethiye Mugla Province Turkish Aegean Coast; Review: My wife and I have been going to the Oykun for I think the last 8 years, and will continue to go there. It's just home from home, the service you receive is second to none, everything is always spotlessly clean. The rooms are very comfortable and cleaned from top to bottom every day, by a tireless group of cleaners, who always have a smile on their faces. Goldie at the reception, Freddie at the bar, these are the two guys who stand out. The ones you'll never forget. Lets not forget the management who are always hands on. The location is great also as it is quite at night and a short walk brings you to the main street and the restaurants, of which there are many. This Hotel is just exceptional in every way, nothing more to add. Just keep up the good work, which I know they will, because all the years we have been going there the standards have never dropped. We'll be there again in May. Thanks guys the star rating does not do you justice, should be much higher.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Innkeeper s Lodge Exeter Middlemoor; City: Exeter Devon England; Review: When we drove up we couldn't believe our eyes, Ok we had Paid £49 for one of the better rooms including breakfast. The only good thing about this place was not a bad breakfast. The Hotel smelt disgusting, everywhere was filthy, the Bath was foul, towels dirty. I would carry on but I'm afraid there would not be enough characters for me too. It is a place I would never visit again , if it was the last place on Earth. I would not recommend this establishment to my worst enemies. Even the reception was uninviting, from here you cross the drive, to enter the cell block, then it just gets worse from then on!; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Travelodge Birmingham Perry Barr; City: Birmingham West Midlands England; Review: Great hotel, very clean had a really good sleep in the very comfortable King Size Bed. The shower was brilliant and powerful. The room was so quiet, you couldn't hear a thing. We stayed there as we were going to a concert, at the Birmingham Symphony Hall. To see Brit Floyd. Great concert and great accommodation to come back to after the show. We are from Leicester and could quite easily have drove home. But so glad we stayed, at the Travelodge, and will do again .; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Pia Bella; City: Kyrenia Kyrenia District; Review: This is a great Hotel, with its two pools, one large one and one small.

The Hotel is exceptionally clean, with an army of cleaners working tirelessly, to keep on top of things. I would return to this hotel in a heart beat.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Park Inn by Radisson Hotel Conference Centre London Heathrow; City: West Drayton Greater Londo; Review: We are so glad we picked this hotel. Not only is it so clean. The staff are maybe the best in personality, politeness, happiest and friendliest we have ever encountered. If what you need is in their power it would be done. The room we had was huge as was the bed. Regarding the bed it was so comfortable firm yet soft. It is also the quietest room we have ever been in. The sound proofing is exceptional. Being as we are so close to a runway, you can hear nothing. The meal at night was good but not exceptional. But the breakfast was truly great plenty of variety to suite every nationality. There was plenty of food, and it was being replenished constantly. The waitresses were busy busy busy all the time. Always with a smile. Very efficient always cleaning the tables can't praise them enough. The bar area was clean and very colourful. With a white light counter top, and coloured back light such a relaxing area. The drinks may be a little pricey. But that didn't take away the ambiance of the surroundings. Would we stay here again. If we fly from Heathrow again this is where we would stay without a doubt. I WILL RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL TO ANYONE WHO WILL BE FLYING FROM HEATHROW!!; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Wyndham Garden Wichita Downtown; City: Wichita Kansas; Review: Our family booked a suite for 4 nights July 21-25, 2005 at the La Quinta Suites downtown Wichita. We were there to see a production of Seussical, the Musical by the Music Theatre of Wichita. If you are in the area in the summer, I recommend the theatre productions highly. You will not see a better production on Broadway! We were pleasantly surprised when we checked into the hotel that the suite was spacious and clean, had two bathrooms and wonderful air conditioning in the Wichita heat! The hotel has an on-site restaurant but it doesn't open until 4pm. The hotel serves a continental standard breakfast, ok but nothing extraordinary. There are restaurants within walking distance but you have to cross a busy street so car rental is the best way to go. One restaurant we really enjoyed was Uptown Bistro in old town, excellent menu. The hotel was very quiet and had a nice pool that is blocked from the public view. We arrived late and found staff very helpful. I would recommend this hotel highly. It is a very good value.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Best Western Plus Cascade Inn Suites; City: Troutdale Oregon; Review: On April 27 & 28, 2006 my daugther, granddaughter and myself stayed at Best Western Rama Inn in Troutdale (Wood River). We paid $85 per night for a suite that contained two beds and a sofa bed. The room was large and very nicely furnished and maintained. The suite does not have a separate bedroom but the room is very large with a separate sitting area. A refrigerator and microwave was included. For the price I was surprised at the roominess. The front desk staff is very friendly and the breakfast in the morning included waffles, eggs, sausage, cereals, etc. They also set out clam chowder the first evening we were there and hot cookies. The location is very close to Portland and the Columbia Gorge, a good central location near shopping. The hotel was very quiet and had a nice indoor pool and spa. I would definitely stay in this hotel again.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Riverside Inn; City: Grants Pass Oregon; Review: During April 22-25, 2006 I stayed at THE LODGE part of the Riverside Inn. There are three distinct areas of the hotel. The cheapest is the middle section & don't even consider staying there; the middle price is across the street, alright but nothing to get excited about; and the new addiition, THE LODGE. One very confusing thing and signage could solve this problem is, "Where does one check in for each section?". The front desk clerk in the evening for the non-lodge rooms would win no personality award and makes it very clear you're in the wrong place for THE LODGE. I found staff at THE LODGE to be gracious and helpful. It's like two different companies own these facilities. I stayed at THE LODGE and while the outside looks like a rustic log lodge, I don't think for $175 per night you should have to pull your luggage up to the second floor. They need a ramp for that second floor! The room was quite nice and the bed is wonderful but I've seen much better for far less money. Part of what you get is a nice view of the river. The pool and jacuzzi are nice and THE LODGE continental breakfast is basic, cinnamon rolls, scones, cereals, hard boiled eggs, etc. The on-site restaurant burned in October and is still not operational. This can be very inconvenient for that quick bite when in a hurry. I would not stay here again as I'm sure there have to be nicer hotels in Grants Pass for the dollar.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Swissotel Chicago; City: Chicago Illinois; Review: I stayed at the Swissotel for a conference July 8-13. We added a couple days to the stay after the conference so we could enjoy time with family flying in to join us. I have a little different perspective on the stay because I stayed across the street at the Fairmont on July 6 & 7 so I have a comparison. I absolutely love the look of the Swissotel. Our rooms were nice and didn't look worn or old. In fact, I have no complaints except for the building noise outside the hotel which isn't their fault. Our grandchildren enjoyed the nice indoor pool and we appreciated no extra charge for using it. My biggest complaint is I got used to the Fairmont's treatment, the staff is very well trained to meet your every need and are over accomodating. The Swissotel has very ordinary concierges that aren't overly friendly like the Fairmonts and their front desk didn't say "Welcome to Swissotel, how can I assist you, it was basically - next?" The Fairmont welcomes you, asks if they can assist you further, etc, etc. My conference rate was higher at the Swissotel than the Fairmont. The rooms were comparable but I have to admit I loved the Fairmont service, especially the bellhops and front desk. Swissotel needs some training on customer service. Often times there appears to be a manager waiting as you come through the door but never once did he say a thing so I assume the help gets their training from people like him, sad because I think the hotel architecture is fabulous. I do recommend while in Chicago go eat deep dish pizza at Giordanos and get Oprah's favorite carmelcorn at Garrett's Popcorn. All of us enjoyed the Field Museum and if you have children, take them to the Navy Pier (fireworks Wed and Sun visible from hotel) and go to the Children's Museum. It is free Thursdays from 5pm-8pm. There is a deli/store very close to the hotel called Bockwinkles. The sandwiches are great, $3.99 freshly made. We stocked up on soda, water and snacks there. I loved Chicago and plan to return again. Will I stay at Swissotel, probably not.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Westin Boston Waterfront; City: Boston Massachusetts; Review: I stayed at the Westin from July 6-13, 2009. I combined business and pleasure. I really thought the facility was beautiful and the front desk staff very helpful and friendly. The concierge had a bit of a chip on her shoulder attitude which I didn't appreciate so stopped using her after the first day. The restaurant staff was always very helpful. I thought the pub had very well priced food and drinks. However, Saucity was overpriced and the food was less than average. I suggest Starbucks for breakfast instead of Saucity. Get oatmeal or a breakfast coffee cake with a coffee, better food - lots cheaper. Go to the pub for any eating after 4pm. My biggest complaint was since this hotel is supposed to be a superior rated hotel, why is it every time I pulled up in a cab, the doorman didn't get the cab door, didn't ask if I wanted help with luggage and let me struggle with my luggage into the hotel. They also didn't ask at the front desk if I wanted assistance with my luggage. I thought this all very odd since I'm used to overkill if anything and no one at the Westin seemed to care if they got a tip. I always had to ask them to call a cab. They didn't approach and ask if I needed a cab, I had to ALWAYS go find someone to assist. The front door service needs MAJOR, MAJOR coaching. On the positive side, I loved the hotel furnishings, the cleanliness, the White Tea smell in the building and the facilities in general. I found the location to be fine and transportation was easy into downtown. I would recommend the hotel but I hope they know to improve their rating that they need to coach staff better at the front door and get rid of Saucity.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Residence Inn Milwaukee Downtown; City: Milwaukee Wisconsin; Review: My Mom and sisters stayed April 14th and 15th at the Residential Inn. The room was lovely and clean. The parking was under the hotel and an easy in and out. The only complaint I have with the hotel is the staff. They were nice but I'm so used to hotel staff being overly friendly and asking if they can give us any advice or directions, be sure to ask, etc. All the staff we dealt with was professional but didn't go out of their way and didn't act like they wanted to. On booking, I asked for additional towels and pillows. We had to make a call both nights to get them. Service was prompt but after the first night of asking I consider it unacceptable to have to ask again. We were in town to attend the Milwaukee Rep Theatre production of Route 66. It runs till May 9th and it is extremely entertaining and funny. Don't miss it! I would recommend this hotel because of the nice rooms but make sure you don't count on the staff to be real helpful.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

I feel like I'm guessing with the PLine pliers cutters. As far as the Sheath goes the PLine sheath is much sturdy, but hey are you buying the sheath or the pliers. Also the pliers are a bit skinnier than the PLine ones. I'd buy these over the PLine pliers if I had to make the choice because of the blades being outside. They both cut braid easily.

I tested the accuracy out by hooking my Wife's 3lb dumbbell to it and it worked great. Also the magnet of the back keeps the hook from hooking anything else also which is very nice. My one issue with it currently is that it holds the weight to quick. Seems like if a fish thrashed at all it could screw up the weighing and then the scale will hold on the screwed up weight. I'll have to leave another review once I get to use it on a fish.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | amazon_Sports_and_Outdoors |

Title: La Grande Quercia Bed Breakfast; City: Teramo Province of Teramo Abruzzo; Review: Where I came from has always been common knowledge in my family. The region is large though and I had never been there. It took my breath away, this beautiful B&B in the middle of it all. We stayed for three nights, wished it were more. Russ and Sergio helped with genealogy research and we actually found and met with my 2nd cousin Giovanni! It was the highlight of my 3 week vacation. When we weren't digging through old papers and the internet we were enjoying their hospitality, food, and company. Breakfast each morning was amazing, fresh baked tarts, fresh fruit and fruit juice from the property and such charming hosts. We stayed in the large Bella Vista suite, just private enough yet close enough to feel welcome. The room was comfortable and furnished perfectly. I was sorry to leave although the suggestions from Russ and Sergio for where to go next made the rest of our trip as nice as our stay with them. We will return just as soon as we can and know they will be as pleased to see us as we will to see them. Pat and Bob; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Golden Tulip Rome Airport; City: Fiumicino Province of Rome Lazio; Review: Arrived after 1 am so our stay was short. The room was large and the bathroom was beautiful. I was sorry I had no time for a long bath. Parking was an issue, it was difficult to get into the lot and impossible to get out without paying. The payment had to be made inside before leaving but no one made that clear. The staff at the front desk, although friendly did not offer any advice even when they knew we were struggling.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: La Grande Quercia Bed Breakfast; City: Teramo Province of Teramo Abruzzo; Review: You know that list of friends that you can call for anything? I've added Russ and Sergio to my short list and hope they have added me to theirs as well. This was only our second visit to this amazing B&B. Stayed in the Bella Vista Suite again, large, spotless, charming and comfortable. Breakfast was a treat every morning and we were lucky enough to share dinner with them as well. Amazing! It was great to see Russ and Sergio again, they were gracious and giving and fun. I was able to visit the cousin I found on my last trip and with Russ and Serg's help made a little more progress towards finding additional Italian family and gathering documents. Visiting the archives with Sergio is an experience everyone should have. Abruzzo is beautiful, Teramo is convenient and the nearby hill towns are all worth a visit. La Grande Quercia is our favorite home away from home and we'll be back.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: La Grande Quercia Bed Breakfast; City: Teramo Province of Teramo Abruzzo; Review: This was our third time at the B&B and it won't be our last. A trip to Abruzzo to find the place my 94 year old mom (Dora) visited in 1960. With Sergio and Russell's help, on the last day we found it! Made an amazing trip even more special. After some time in Rome we made our way to Teramo to this incredible B&B. This time my husband and I stayed in the house while my mom and niece had the Bella Vista room. I loved the room in the main house but think I want "my" room back next time we visit. Breakfast was incredible and Russell's sourdough French toast was the best. Dinner in nearby Teramo's Il Mulino was a feast of Abruzzo delicacies. As always, I hated to leave and can't wait to return.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Hotel Sol; City: Redington Beach Florida; Review: Room with a small kitchenette, coffee maker, small fridge, microwave and sink. Ice available in the office but otherwise nothing. 2 mugs, no glasses or utensils, no paper towels or dish towels. Lots of bathroom towels, beach towels available in the office. Parking is a real problem, the lot in front of the hotel was always full. Overflow parking was a bit down and across a 4 lane divided road. This was a grass lot and when it rained we wished we had stayed anywhere else but here.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Enesco Disney Showcase Couture de Force Snow White Princess Stone Resin Figurine; Brand: Enesco; Review: The Couture de Force collection is such a great line for Disney Princess fans and Snow White does not disappoint. Although she is not one of my favorite princesses, I had to get her because she is part of the collection. She's really beautiful and I love the details on the back of her cape. This is a must for anyone who loves collecting Disney Princess figurines or who loves the Couture de Force line!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Enesco Disney Showcase Couture de Force Aurora Princess Stone Resin Figurine; Brand: Enesco; Review: Without a doubt Aurora is the most beautiful figurine in the Couture de Force line. Every single detail on her dress is so well made and I love how it incorporates both of the blue and pink colors with the flowers on the back of the gown. Her hair is just gorgeous and I love her sparkles on the front of her dress and on her necklace and crown. Even though I am not a Sleeping Beauty fan, this figure is my absolute favorite!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Enesco Disney Showcase Cinderella Couture de Force Princess Stone Resin Figurine; Brand: Enesco; Review: Ever since I saw the live action movie version of Cinderella I have discovered a new love for her as a Disney Princess. This figurine pays homage to the original movie while making her dress a bit more modern - which is something I absolutely LOVE. The sparkles on her dress make the blue stand out even more and I adore the grey top with ruffle cap sleeves. This is such a beautiful figurine of Cinderella and is one of my favorites in the Couture de Force collection.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Enesco 4037523 Disney Showcase Rapunzel Couture de Force Princess Stone Resin Figurine; Brand: Enesco; Review: I actually purchased my Rapunzel figurine at Hallmark but wanted to leave a review on here for others to see. I love Rapunzel the most out of any Disney Princess so of course the second I saw her I HAD to have her. My favorite things are the sparkly studs on the front of her gown that resemble the lanterns and all of the intricate detail in her hair. She is breathtaking! However as much as I love this figure I must say that she does not look like the movie version of Rapunzel and in fact can sometimes look a little big compared to the other figurines in this collection. Regardless, this is a beautiful figure - all Disney Couture de Force Princesses are. I just wish they would make Merida, Tiana, and Pocahontas so that my collection would be REALLY complete!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Enesco Disney Showcase Ariel Couture de Force Princess Stone Resin Figurine; Brand: Enesco; Review: Ariel is stunning in this figurine. I will say the only disappointing thing is that her hair is more of an orange-y color rather than the dark red that it was in the movie. This is a minor detail however and can easily be overlooked because Ariel is beautiful in this collection. I love the pink shells on her mermaid fin as well as all of the shells and details in her hair. She's always been one of my favorite Disney Princesses so I would highly recommend getting her!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Enesco Disney Showcase Jasmine Couture de Force Princess Stone Resin Figurine; Brand: Enesco; Review: Jasmine stands out beautifully even though she doesn't have a flowy dress or as many sparkles as the other princesses in this line. Her left does look a little wonky but it is something I don't even notice anymore. She is so realistic looking compared to the movie - beautiful! I love her sleeves and the way they made them appear to be see-through. She also has pretty purple sparkles on the front of her outfit. Couture de Force outdoes itself with Jasmine. I love this figurine!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Enesco Disney Showcase Queen Elsa Couture de Force Stone Resin Figurine; Brand: Enesco; Review: Elsa from Arendelle is so beautiful! I am a 33 year old woman who loves all things Disney Princess so I was ecstatic when I found out they were making Elsa as part of the Couture de Force line. The back of her dress (cape) is made to look like ice and is see-through which is so cool, and they perfectly nailed her hairstyle and facial expression. Without a doubt, this is a great figurine for the price and well worth it for any Frozen lover!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Jim Shore for Enesco Disney Showcase Anna Couture Deforce Figurine, 8"; Brand: Jim Shore for Enesco; Review: I am a huge fan of the Couture de Force princess figures and this is my very first Anna figurine. I love the details on her dress. They even went as far as ensuring she has freckles on her shoulders just like in the movie. Her face does look a little but off from the movie version but overall still a great figurine. I would definitely recommend this one!; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Home_and_Kitchen |

Title: Shark Rocket DeluxePro Upright (HV321); Brand: SharkNinja; Review: LOVE LOVE LOVE this little vacuum. I fell in love with this vacuum when I started using the same rocket but a different model at a clients house. I use it to clean once a week. It does everything!! So I bought my own! I decided to go with the Pro series since it had more to offer. I used this vacuum right out of the box. I literally find things to vacuum everyday. My house is small so I only have to empty it once. At the house I clean (3000 sq. ft.) I empty it twice but I could get away with only once. As with ANY vacuum, I believe in maintaining it (cleaning filters, cutting hair off the roller, etc.) so that it works properly for a long time. But this little vacuum is the best I have ever used! I love and trust the Shark Rocket so much that I bought one for my son for his new house. He and his wife love it too!!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: DHP Modern Canopy Bed Frame, Classic Design, Queen Size, Grey; Brand: DHP; Review: My daughter loves her new canopy bed and it was fairly easy to assemble. There's no squeaking and it's sturdy. The only reason for the 4 stars is there were some flaws that caused a few screws not to line up. But the flaws were with the top covers that go over the four corners of the canopy. One cover was cut wrong so we could not put it on tight. On the other corner the screw just would not go in. But we made it work.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

The problem is that he started vomiting up plastic pieces the next day, which of course led to two trips to the Vet, x-rays, and a lot of fear that there was still plastic in his body. We thought he might be okay, but yesterday he vomited up three more large pieces (picture). It is a miracle he hasn't choked or been injured by these jagged pieces of plastic. I just wanted to warn potential pet parents who treasure their dog, as we do.; Rating: 2.0/5.0

However, the Whirlpool AP51030KB Whispure runs quietly and really makes a big difference in air quality. If you have seasonal allergies or have a lot of dust in the air in your apartment/home, give this product a go. **UPDATE** 3/12/18: 2.5 years in, this product is still quiet and effective. My four-star review stands.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Home-Complete HC-5100 Large Ice Molds-Silicone Tray Makes 8, 2”x2” Big Cubes-BPA-Free and Flexible-Chill Water, Lemonade, Cocktails, Or Any Beverage,; Brand: Home-Complete; Review: I've only used this for 3 days, but it seems sturdy and built to last. I enjoy how you can poor boiling water over this, as part of a cleaning routine. All in all, big ice cubes in a good package. 5/12/18: 1 year in, this product simply holds up to regular use.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Oster Titanium-Infused DuraCeramic 2-in-1 Panini Maker and Grill, Black with White Griddles (CKSTPM20W-TECO); Brand: Oster; Review: The handle of this product arrived broken upon receipt. Amazon reimbursed me, but let me keep it, I may just have received a poorly shipped box or lemon. This is the reason for my 3 stars, just to be honest about my experience about the entire experience. ****Amazon's customer service -- 5 STARS! -- As mentioned, they reimbursed me for a somewhat broken Panini Maker. ****On the product itself -- 4 STARS! -- This product, despite the broken handle, effectively makes paninis, hash browns, toasting bread, awesome grilled cheeses, etc. It cleans up pretty easily with a damp paper towel. It arrived with a small chip in the ceramic coating, which doesn't comfort me, but seems otherwise great. ****Durability -- 2 STARS (BUT READ OTHER REVIEWS) -- Mine arrived a little chipped with the handle snapped apart, but every product has lemons, so I would encourage you to look around at the averages.; Rating: 3.0/5.0

Title: Ultra Sharp Kitchen; Brand: The Artful Homemaker; Review: ORIGINAL REVIEW I enjoy using these scissors, but rust appeared on the inside rivet holding the two scissor blades together. I'm disappointed in rust, which speaks to possible quality-control issues. But the blades themselves are sharp and work well. **UPDATE: The Artful Homemaker has contacted me and offered me a free replacement! I will be updating this review from 3 to 4 stars. Customer service gets 5 STARS! If the product replacement they send me doesn't rust, this review will be raised to 5 stars. Thanks customer service! *******SECOND UPDATE: The replacement scissors Artful Homemaker gave me doesn't suffer from the same rust issue. These guys really stand by their product, so I've updated to 5 stars.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Utopia Kitchen 8-Inch Multipurpose Stainless Steel Chef Knife; Brand: Utopia Kitchen; Review: This is a good value for a $10 knife.

Title: Lemonade Bros Lemon Squeezer - Handheld Citrus Juicer for Lemons and Limes Vintage Kitchen; Brand: Lemonade Bros; Review: The handle snapped from squeezing a lemon that was on the large side.

Title: Topo by Ergodriven | The Not-Flat Standing Desk Anti-Fatigue Mat with Calculated Terrain [Must-Have for Any Standing Desk] (Mulberry; Brand: Ergodriven; Review: I've only owned this item for a couple weeks, so keep that in mind. Having comparison shopped for the best anti-fatigue workstation mat, this item is the consensus best (theWirecutterDOTcom endorses this as the best ergo/ anti-fatigue mat for office workstations). The teardrop bump in the middle of the mat helps give feet a unique rest stop for when ankles are tired, or knees lock up a bit. This mat encourages people who have fidgety legs and feet to adjust their positions more frequently, which is especially good if you're standing in the same spot for several minutes at a time. If you are looking for something cheaper in the anti-fatigue category, check out NUVA Anti Fatigue Standing Floor Mat 30 x 20 in, 100% PU Comfort Ergonomic Material Unlike PVC leather mats! 4 Non-slip PU Elastomer Strips on Bottom, 5 Safety Test by SGS (Olive Green, Beach Pattern) for $46 (as of 3/12/18). WARNING to NEW USERS: if you've never used a standing desk before, only start with about 20 minutes of use at a time until you get used to it. Your knees and ankles will thank you for allowing them to get acclimated. Additionally, I would not recommend using a standing desk all day, as it puts awkward stress on the knees and lower back if you are not sitting with some frequency. In summation: take breaks! It's neither good for your body to sit all day nor stand all day. Try 20-30 minutes on, 20-30 minutes off. Listen to your body and respond accordingly.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | amazon_Home_and_Kitchen |

Title: Moonrays 91380 Payton Solar-Powered Black Plastic LED Path Light Set, Black, 10-Pack; Brand: Moonrays; Review: I almost wrote this last night and it was not going to be a good review. I placed them two days ago and they were on the first night and very nice. Then last night a couple came on, most did not until I tapped the top or resettled the battery. But none stayed on more than a few minutes. It was a sunny day yesterday so I could not figure out the problem. But tonight, they all came on by themselves and are still on (so far for about 40 minutes....we'll see how long they last). They line my back yard and I really like them. Not really much useful light but pretty. Have to agree that the plastic is not great and I busted the top off of one (glued back on, so okay). However I was doing exactly what the instructions tell you not to do....pressing on the top of the unit to get it farther into the ground. So my bad. I found (after I broke it of course) that the best way is to make a small hole with an appropriate tool (or in my case a screwdriver...not really appropriate but not plastic anyway) and take the stake out of the bottom of the pole and secure it in the ground. Once secure then you can slide the pole (with the top in place) onto the stake. Worked for me anyway. Hopefully they work every night as well as they are working now!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Clear Stair Treads Carpet Protectors Set of 2; Brand: Bandwagon; Review: Granted, I did not purchase these to protect carpeting. I purchased these to guard a windowsill and window from my dogs who tend to get whacky when the mailman drops mail in the slot. Their nails can chip paint and wood from the windowsill and can even scratch the window glass. I was looking for a solution and these work fabulously. The original idea was to have the nubby side up but when they arrived I found the lip fit perfectly under the windowsill and two side by side were the exact right length (luckily). I used two finishing nails for each just to keep them in place. The sill is protected and there is a slope of the protector against the glass that keeps the dogs from getting a foot hold. How do they work as a carpet protector? Couldn't say. They are pretty stiff so can see how that might not work for some folks and they would need to be tacked down for sure. As a windowsill protector....they work great!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Solar Powered White LED Net Lights For Christmas, Weddings and Other Outdoor Decorations; Brand: Lilyshome; Review: I was skeptical that these would stay on for any length of time after dark but they did great. I set the panel out in the bright sun for a few hours before putting on a small hedge out front of the house. I bought three (they don't cover much area) and was really pleased how they looked. The LED lights are small but I bought the bright white ones and they were very pretty. It is a small classy delicate light. I went to bed last night around midnight and they were still on. The regular xma lights are on a timer and go out at 11pm so they were the only ones still on. Very pleased. Now that the panels are in their regular spot we will see how they do. It is not a spot that gets bright sunshine all day. If there is any degradation I'll update this review. Am thinking about leaving them up permanently.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Heath Zenith SL-5408-GR 110-Degree Motion-Sensing Flood Security Light, Gray; Brand: Heath/Zenith; Review: I'm sometimes marginally handy but not always. I had to replace an outside fixture that had cracked where the sensor bit attaches so was no longer adjustable. Just flopped around. This is a rental property and I don't really want to spend a lot of money. This one was priced right and I was able to install it pretty easily and it is working great. We haven't had much rain so I will keep an eye on it but I think it will be fine.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: BLACK+DECKER 71-120 Hole Saw Assortment, 5-Piece; Brand: BLACK+DECKER; Review: Just needed some wiring holes in a couple of cabinets and bookcases. Worked okay.

Title: Smart Solar 3960KR1 San Rafael II Solar Mission Lantern Illuminated by 2 High Performance Warm White LEDs In The Top; Brand: Smart Solar; Review: Works fine.

It doesn't put off a lot of light but enough to help me see all the random stuff I've hidden back there. It was easy to install and works "ok". That said, it does seem to just come on for no reason and stay on for a long time and I worry about battery consumption......and ghosts. I assume it is coming on seemingly by itself because of ghosts.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: SpeedHex FlipOut Rechargeable Power Screwdriver; Brand: SpeedHex; Review: This is my new favorite thing. I have a great big powerful drill but it is not the most flexible thing and I have trouble getting the right amount of pressure on it at awkward angles. Seemed like a lot of my curtain rods were just a little loose because I couldn't get the right angle. I used this to go back at all those little screws around the house (curtain rods, sound bar brackets, cabinet organizers) and was able to get everything tightened up. Goes a long way on a charge. If I had any criticism it would be that once you lock the head in place, it can still jiggle a bit. I'm hoping this doesn't get worse over time.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Tools_and_Home_Improvement |

Title: Alcatraz (I, Q); Author: Visit Amazon's Michael P. Spradlin Page; Review: I, Q Alcatraz by Michael P. Spradlin and Roland Smith, is an amazing, heart-pounding, breath-stopping action packed conclusion to the IQ Series. The series begins at the wedding reception of Q Munoz's mother and Angela Tucker's father, near San Francisco. The series winds it's way on a cross country music tour to end where it began on San Francisco Bay area. Unfortunately, though, a clown was hurt in this book. This book answered all my questions and tied up any loose ends What an impressive conclusion! As an adult, I purchased this book this morning and finished it this afternoon. I simply could NOT put it down. As a teacher, I have had students asking for this book for over 8 weeks and they will not be disappointed. Shhh. . . don't tell the kids there is much to be learned from this book, which I won't include as it would spoil the reading. The wise-cracking, Q grows and develops physically and morally as we would hope he would. This is such a great series for those students who love adventure, intrigue, spies, twists, turns and good vs evil. The plot twists, turns and surprises, last until midway through the last chapter.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Into the Killing Seas; Author: Visit Amazon's Michael P. Spradlin Page; Review: OH MY GOODNESS! This is the 19th of Michael Spradlin's books and the best yet. He uses historical fiction in the retelling of the deadliest shark attack in history, the sinking of the USS Indianapolis. Patrick and his younger brother Teddy have become separated from their parents in the ending days of World War II. With the help of their friend Benny, they sneak on the Indy, to go in search of their parents. That's when IT happens and they are forced for survive for days in the intense heat, without food or water when sharks begin to circle the area. As a middle school teacher, this became a favorite of my students especially my reluctant readers because of the fast pace, and intense but carefully worded action. This would be appropriate for any student 5th grade or older. SPOILER ALERT: DO NOT READ THE LAST PAGES FIRST! You won't believe the surprise at the end.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Unsqueezed: Springing Free from Skinny Jeans, Nose Jobs, Highlights and Stilettos; Author: Visit Amazon's Margot Starbuck Page; Review: Christian women, take off your stilettos. . . because you are going to want to run, not walk, to your nearest bookseller and BUY THIS BOOK. Or let your fingers do the walking and order it here. But choose expedited shipping. You want to get it as soon as you can. This is not just another book about body image. Believe me--I've read plenty of those, and this one is different. Margot Starbuck will challenge you to think about your body in a very different way--a way that is at once freeing and challenging. If you're interested in developing more of a Christlike mindset in all aspects of your life, you need to read this book. Your whole self--body, mind, and spirit--will thank you. After you've read it, you'll want to take off your shoes again. You'll know you're on holy ground.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Grace for the Good Girl: Letting Go of the Try-Hard Life; Author: Visit Amazon's Emily P. Freeman Page; Review: There are already a number of reviews of this book. Why should I write another? Simply because, every now and then, a book comes along that could honestly be life-changing. That's not an everyday occurrence. But this is one of those books. Emily Freeman writes with an authenticity that is refreshing. You can imagine her sitting at her computer, her fingers sometimes flying across the keys and other times barely able to peck out the words as she wipes away tears. She is piercingly real. This is no simple how-to book; it's a tracing of Emily's story and that of many other women. It's as if, having reached a blessed destination, Emily went back and drew a detailed map for those who still need to make the trip. More than that, she helps the reader to understand the value of starting on the journey, however frightening that might be. She talks of "the hiding"--that state of needing to start on the journey, but feeling that there's safety in remaining where we are. She exposes the fact that hiding behind our masks of friendliness and charm and pretending that everything is fine is NOT really a safe place to be. Emily knows the way out--the way to safety, to wholeness, to peace--and she's a sympathetic, understanding guide. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll be captivated by this book--but you'll also learn the way out of the traps that ensnare those who are working so valiantly in a "try-hard life." You'll be very glad you bought this book.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Happiness Dare: Pursuing Your Heart's Deepest, Holiest, and Most Vulnerable Desire; Author: Visit Amazon's Jennifer Dukes Lee Page; Review: I first encountered Jennifer Dukes Lee's writing via her blog. A particularly poignant post prompted me to buy her first book, Love Idol, which I found to be extremely soul-nourishing. To be honest, I was uncertain whether The Happiness Dare could live up to that standard, but I was delighted to learn that it could! I have mixed emotions even thinking about my own happiness--I long for it, but then I tend to feel guilty if I try to cultivate it. This book has helped me to re-frame my thoughts, to consider happiness as a holy pursuit rather than a selfish occupation. Refreshingly deep yet immensely practical, this book is a gem. Highly recommend.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

The writing style is winsome and welcoming, practical and inspiring. You'll be motivated to meet the seasons of your life with a fresh approach, grateful for all your blessings.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Brave Is the New Beautiful: Finding the Courage to Be the Real You; Author: Visit Amazon's Lee Wolfe Blum Page; Review: I pre-ordered this book and was so glad to receive it! Lee Wolfe Blum understands the hearts of women. She knows their strengths and weaknesses, their fears and their dreams. In this book she tells the story of a number of women, and in their stories we find ourselves. Some of the stories will have you turning pages as fast as you can; others will stop you in your tracks. But you'll be glad you read them. Blum's writing is both reassuring and challenging, a much-needed call to authentic life together. Excellent book.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Magnificent Story: Uncovering a Gospel of Beauty, Goodness, and Truth (Apprentice Resources); Author: Visit Amazon's James Bryan Smith Page; Review: "Magnificent" is not a word I throw around carelessly, but it's just right to describe the story James Bryan Smith writes about in this book. Smith has long been convinced that stories matter, and readers of the Good and Beautiful series know how concerned he is that we believe the right narratives. This new book points out just how insufficient some of our narratives are in relation to the magnificent story of the gospel. Your soul will be blessed by this book that displays the good, beautiful, and true nature of God's great love for us. Wish I could rate this one higher than five stars!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Especially timely for today.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Life Without Lack: Living in the Fullness of Psalm 23; Author: Visit Amazon's Dallas Willard Page; Review: Dallas Willard died nearly five years ago, and those of us who voraciously read his books mourned his passing for many reasons, including the thought that we wouldn't get to read any more of his words. But the Lord whom Dallas served so faithfully is alive and well and has made it possible for us to receive an especially poignant message from Dallas. Life Without Lack was not written in book form by Dallas, but these are most certainly Dallas's words. Dallas's daughter Becky Willard Heatley and friend Larry Burtoft carefully and prayerfully transcribed a series of Dallas's talks on Psalm 23 and edited them, fortified with some of Dallas's other writings, into this important book. So many of us can quote Psalm 23, but few of us have ventured deeply into living the truth of it--a life that lacks nothing because all its needs are met by the Good Shepherd. Contentment, peace, and security are not empty wishes; they are the fruit of a life lived day by day and moment by moment in the knowledge of God's care. In this book, Dallas shows us the way to experience that kind of life. Those of us who knew Dallas can almost hear his voice speaking these words of promise, hope, and challenge to us. His humble, gentle tone comes through clearly. His insights are grounded in the truth that was fleshed out in Dallas's life as he himself practiced living in the fullness of Psalm 23.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Have tissues handy and be prepared to have your heart touched and your spirit renewed.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: First Ask Why: Raising Kids to Love God Through Intentional Discipleship; Author: Visit Amazon's Shelly Wildman Page; Review: I've never been a fan of parenting books. It always seemed to me that they were written either from the lofty heights, with the writer removed far from the actual toil of being a parent, or else from so far down in the trenches that the writer lacked perspective. This book is different. Rather than being a how-to manual for parents, this book is a call for parents to consider WHY they parent in a particular way. Written in a winsome, relatable style, these are the words of an experienced mom who has depended on God throughout the journey of parenting and who now possesses great wisdom, perspective, and compassion for parents. In short, this is the book I wish I'd had when my own kids were small. I can't recommend it highly enough. I was given a copy of this book by the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Now I'm going to purchase copies for friends who want to raise their kids to be disciples of Jesus Christ.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Echaurren Hotel Gastronomico; City: Ezcaray La Rioja; Review: We spent a week driving around the Rioja region, and specifically went to the town of Ezcaray where Eucharren Inn is located to eat at El Portal, one of the two restaurants inside this family run inn. One is run by the mother , Marisa Sanchez, and the other, El Portal, is run by the son, Francis Paniego; they share the same kitchen. We spent the night after our meal at the inn as there really isn't all that much in the immediate vicinity, and we didn't want to be driving on the country roads after a large meal with the requisite bottle of Rioja. They had initially placed us in a very nice suite, one of their larger rooms, I believe; however, as it did not have air conditioning, I requested that we move to a smaller room that did as I don't tolerate the heat well. The room was very nice and comfortable. There is a large, communal outside terrace where you can have your breakfast if you'd like, as well as an adjacent indoor lounge area for hotel guests. As the other TA writer has indicated, the primary reason to go to the inn is for the food. While we did not meet the mother, we did meet Francis Paniego, as well as his brother who was the sommelier at El Portal who gave us a tour of the kitchen. Pretty impressive operation. Francis will also be in charge of the restaurant at the Marques de Riscal's winery's new Gehry designed Starwood hotel when it opens in Elciego (about 40 minutes away) later this year. We toured that winery and saw the almost completed hotel, which is quite a contrast to the surrounding medieval villages. The buffet breakfast at Eucharren, which was not included in our room rate (approx. $100/night), was excellent and served in the mother's restaurant. There were a few NY Times articles and other reviews posted at the inn's front door, including one that mentioned a shop, Artesania Textil, around the corner from the inn that made cashmere, wool and mohair blend blankets and scarves. Well worth a visit. Prices were incredibly reasonable and the handiwork of the finest quality. Great gifts. Apparently they produce items for many famous designers, including Carolina Herrera, but also sell to the public -- there is no sign, you have to ask where the shop is located, but they were very helpful once we were inside. This is a great place to roll into in the afternoon, as we did for a 3:00 lunch, or for dinner, which is very late and we found hard to sleep on, and then spend the night. Of course, you might want to try both restaurants, which might require a two-night stay. The inn is great for that.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel 1898; City: Barcelona Catalonia; Review: We just spent three nights at 1898 and were very pleased in all respects. As it is located on La Rambla, we were concerned about noise and had therefore requested an interior standard room. We were shown to our room on the third of six floors, which had two large outward opening windows overlooking a small inner courtyard with potted plants at the base. Because of that, the room was a little darker than exterior rooms or those exterior with terraces, but we preferred that over potential street noise. Location was great, though in a very touristy area. You can walk to all of the main points of interest, and we did not have any trouble hailing a cab either. One real bonus is the Boquiera Market, which is about a block further down La Rambla -- incredible outdoor covered market for meats, seafood, fruits, bar-style restaurants. We bought some food there and brought it back to the room one day. Do watch for pick pockets there and on La Rambla generally, as you would in any highly congested area where it is easy to get distracted by all of the goings on. Spain overall felt very safe, certainly safer than large cities in the US, but like anywhere petty crimes of opportunity will occur. The hotel occupies what was formerly the headquarters for Compania de Tabacos de Filipinas, which was built in 1881. It was completely redone 8 months ago and provides an interesting mix of very modern high-end furnishing and wall treatments but the original fascade, high ceilings (in rooms too) and ornate details. Because it is so new, it has not yet been written up in the guidebooks; however, I expect that when the new editions come out that this hotel will be right at the top. While we paid 150 euros per night without breakfast, a room of our standard room's quality combined with the overall luxe feel of the hotel and its full range of amenities would easily fetch $350-450/night in San Francisco or New York. The rooftop deck, which has a very modern lounge-y feel with built-ins and other freestanding seating areas, is lovely with views out over the city in all directions. It was especially welcome in the evenings during our stay becauses it was so hot during the day. The pool located on rooftop is on the small side, but nice for cooling off and lazing around. On the floor below the streel-level reception desk is another pool/spa facility, which is pretty amazing. Apparently the stone and brickwork arched ceiling over that pool is part of the original building and was uncovered during the renovation. It feels like you are in ancient roman bath or a wine cave, but the new pool itself, which is larger than the rooftop pool, has jacuzzi jets, two overhanging waterfall type fixtures, and two stainless steel lounge chairs that are submerged in the water with pinhole jets in the backs/seats. There is an adjacent steam room and sauna, as well as a glass enclosed air-conditioned exercise room with; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Railei Beach Club; City: Railay Beach Krabi Town Krabi Province; Review: We had booked the main house of #8 for a week long stay. It was a great, traditional style Thai house built of teak, with an outdoor shower and toilet, and separate kitchen that you access from the front deck. The setting is spectacular as you are on a narrow area of land between the beach on the front and the limestone cliffs at the back. There are monkeys in the trees behind the house, and the beach is just 75 or so yards in front of the house. The problem for us was that I just couldn't tolerate the heat and humidity. Plus, the water temperature was so warm, around the mid to high 80s, that it wasn't refreshing either. This was supposed to be the cool season. and I was too hot to move. I could have stayed there splayed out on the bed under the ceiling fan and survived, but that was about the extent of it. So we decided that we had to move, at least to a place with air conditioning and a pool, if not away from the entire area. I wasn't even sure that changing accomodations would make enough of a difference that I would want to stay for a week, but once we made the move I managed much better. The front desk was extremely understanding, and refunded the unused portion of our prepaid stay. Apparently we weren't the first ones to get there and find it just too hot to get by with ceiling fans. We were going to vacate either way, but it was very nice of them to let us out of the agreement and refund the remainder of the weekly rate. I still think that it's a great place to stay if you want a more rustic, authentic visit and can tolerate the heat, and it's particularly good for a larger group since you could rent multiple units. But without A/C and a pool you really need to LIKE heat and humidity, otherwise you will not be happy there. We moved 50 yards down the beach to Railey Village and really enjoyed our remaining 5 nights there. I could chill down in the A/C room and then go out for awhile without already being overheated. The pool was also cool enough to feel refreshing, at least initially. So really think about your group and their heat tolerance before booking at the Beach Club.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Peninsula Bangkok; City: Bangkok; Review: We stayed at the Peninsula for three nights upon arrival in Thailand. The room and rate were through the Fine Hotels & Resorts program at American Express. Our room rate was around $225/night and we did not get an upgrade at the time of arrival, so our room was a deluxe king, which I believe is one step up from a standard room. The riverside location was terrific, and we loved using their comp hotel boat, which would take you to one of three locations: the pubic ferry pier, which we used to go to various tourist sights; a Peninsula dock on the other side of the river, which we used to get to get to the other side of river when we met some folks at the Oriental; or the skytrain station, which we used to get to various downtown locations. It's a great way to start any outing, taking only 5 minutes to get across the river and never having to wait for more than 2-3 minutes as there are multiple boats. It was also very enjoyable to watch all of the boat activity on the river, whether from the room, while on the boat or ferry, or just watching from the lobby and restaurant areas. The unobstructed view from the room was of the river and skyline. The room itself was spacious, well-apppointed and had a huge bathroom. The bed was the most comfortable of our three week stay in SE Asia, as even higher-end hotels in Thailand and Cambodia seem to use only one mattress on a platform-style frame. Fresh fruit was replensished daily, a morning newspaper arrived in a box near the front door, and the room was always promptly re-made while we were out. We never actually saw any housekeeping service taking place on our floor. The breakfast buffet, which was included in our room rate was very inviting and included a vast array of Asian and American items, some pre-cooked and others cooked to order. My spouse really raves about the variety of tropical fruits (jackfruit, dragonfruit, pineapple, mango, papaya and more), lox, Thai dishes, all types of eggs, any coffee drink that you wanted to order: espresso, lattes. We especially like an Asian egg custard that they had outside at the Asian cook-to-order area. As it was quite warm, even in the morning, we chose to sit inside for breakfast. For media hounds like myself, there was cart with international newspapers available outside the breakfast area. The afternoon tea, again part of our package through AmEx, was held in the main lounge overlooking the river. A pianist was often playing when we would come through the lobby area during the daytime and early evenings. And upon returning to the hotel in the afternoons it was very pleasant to sit in that same area and enjoy a glass or wine or snack. Even in November, when the temperatures are supposed to be somewhat cooler, it's almost oppressively hot in Bangkok. The pool area, which is one long pool that is stepped down towards the river,; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Railay Village Resort; City: Railay Beach Krabi Town Krabi Province; Review: We moved to Railay Village Resort from Railay Beach Club two nights into a planned seven night stay because we needed air conditioning and a pool, both of which the Beach Club, though lovely in a more authentically Thai way, lacked. It was very hot and humid. We looked at all of the hotels on West Railey Bay and decided that Railey Village Resort had the most attractive accomodations and grounds at a reasonable rate. While Rayavadee was quite empty and we were offered their Thai rate of $500/night as opposed to the standard entry rate of $700/night and up from there, we still felt that Railey Village was a better choice at something like $170/night, and we knew that we could eat at Rayavadee's various restaurants, which we did most nights. We stayed in a lower unit adjacent to the pool at the back of the Village. The main room was very spacious with a king size bed as well as a day bed, separate beanbag chair and desk with TV and minibar. The bathroom was quite large as well, with a separate tub and shower with rainfall showerhead. Everything was new and nicely finished. We did look at the more expensive free-standing cottages, which were perhaps a bit nicer and certainly larger, but not in a way that would have appreciably improved our stay. They had indivual hot tubs, which I couldn't have imagined wanting to use. The pool at the back was very inviting and the surrounding area nicely landscaped. The water was a bit cooler than the air temperature, so it felt refreshing. My only complaint about the pool area was the lack of shade, as there were only about 12 lounge chairs, set up in pairs with a single umbrella and table for each set of two. Because the property is quite narrow, there is very little space to move the lounge chairs around, so depending on the time of day, you couldn't be in the shade. While it wasn't a big problem during our stay because occupancy was so low that we could move from one set of lounges to another in order to chase the shade, if the place had been more crowded I am not sure just how that would have worked. There are no lounge chairs on the beach out front; apparently they aren't allowed, so there people just sit on the sand with their mat or towel and most don't have an umbrella at all. There is, however, another smaller pool up front near the beach,and sometimes that had better shade than the one near our room. The breakfast buffet was reasonably good, but nothing special aside from the fact that you are eating it one step off the beach. The front desk and housekeeping staff were all very accomodating and friendly. We tended to eat dinner at one of Rayavadee's restaurants, of which there were four, one of which was just down the beach. They didn't exactly advertise that all of the restaurants were open to the public, but if you; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Wailea Beach Villas; City: Wailea Maui Hawaii; Review: We rented a 2b/2b/den penthouse villa on the 4th floor, which is one down from the top floor. The view was spectacular and the villa top-end in terms of furnishing and finishes. We had noticed the units when we last were in Maui staying at the Four Seasons. We thought that a two bedroom would work better and be less expensive than two rooms at the Four Season, especially in high season. Wailea Beach itself is perfect. It tends to be like a pond in the morning and then gets a bit rougher in the afternoon, but it has never seemed too rough or dangerous when we have been there. There is also a private adult-only pool located adjacent to the beach. Both area have loungers with umbrellas and plenty of beach towels. The beach/pool attendants will set up beach seating for you. There is a cold water dispenser and sunscreen available near the pool. There is also a family pool located up off of the beach just below the penthouse building, which is also where the fitness facility is located. One downside is that there is no restaurant or bar on-site, so you do have to go to one of the adjacent hotels if you want to buy something to eat or drink. But, of course, you have a full kitchen as well. We thoroughly enjoyed access to the various restaurants at Four Seasons, especially Ferraro's which features al fresco dining. It's great for lunch when the umbrellas are up, but also very romantic for dinner when the umbrellas are down and you can watch the sunset and dine under the stars. My 20-year-old got her scuba certification at the Grand Wailea, which is located between the Wailea Beach Villas and the Four Seasons. While the GW is great if you have younger children because of its pools and slides, it's a very large hotel and quite crowded by comparison to the Wailea Beach Villas or Four Seasons. The Shops at Wailea are located just behind the villas, so you can shop, dine, etc. there as well. Most of the units, both the villas in the penthouse and the villas in the lower rise buildings between the penthouse and beach, are managed by one of two professional vacation rental businesses: Destination Resorts or Tropical Vacations. They have photos of the interiors on their web sites. While I looked at those, our unit was actually rented directly through the owner on vrbo.com but upon arrival we were met by someone from the company managing their unit, which is different than the two listed above. We did look at a few units for sale while we were there since we might want to rent a 3b/3b units if we go back with the extended family. The list prices are in the 3-5,000,000 range depending on whether they are in the penthouse building or in the separate villa buildings, so that should give a sense of the location, view, amenties and furnishings. These aren't run of the mill condos. Housekeeping service was provided once; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Yangshuo Village Inn; City: Yangshuo County Guangxi; Review: We learned of the Village Inn from their sister resort (Yangshuo Mountain Retrat) which was full at the time that we wanted to book our stay. We were very happy with our 5-night stay a the Inn, the first night of which was in the main building (smaller room but better view) and then the remaining four nights in a farmhouse loft room (bigger and better for a longer stay). The price was very reasonable, about $60-70 per night without breakfast. First off, especially after seeing Yangshuo town itself, which is about a five minute taxi ride and much bigger than we had expected, we were very happy to return to the much smaller Moon Village and the Village Inn therein at the end of the day. It's charming, with the small wood-burning fireplace in the entryway, the small bar and computer area just adjacent to that area, and then the restaurant up several floors by stair from there. The Inn is decorate with Asian antiques and has a green orientation. We were greeted at close to midnight with hot ginger tea. There is an well-tended patio area in front of the Inn, and you can have breakfast there weather permitting. Otherwise, you head upstairs in the main building to the rooftop restaurant with outdoor deck. The views of the karsts, and especially Moon Hill, are lovely. You can also observe the local goings-on from there, whether it is someone hanging laundry on a nearby rooftop or a Chinese tour bus coming into the village. We ate our breakfasts there most mornings and were quite content with the made-to-order selections that were sent up from the ground floor via dumbwaiter. Our room for the bulk of our stay was a loft room in the farmhouse, which is in a separate building just behind the main building. As I recall, it had about five rooms in total, and is a lofted building, in the sense that you can see from the entrance level up the staircase to the second floor rooms. The farmhouse has a small table and stools when you first enter, with a bowl of fruit and tea making equipment, as well as a fridge with two free drinks per day. Aside from grabbing an orange one night we didn't use that area, but it was nonetheless a very welcoming environment. Our usptairs room was good size, especially the bathroom area which had an open floor plan with room for a large dresser as well as a place to open your suitcases, etc. We preferred this arrangement over our first night's room, which while lovely, was smaller. For a longer stay, as ours was, it would have been challenging to put things away in the smaller room, though the bamboo bed frames had a shelf underneath, which I imagine was meant for storage. The upside is that all of those rooms are in the main building, as opposed to the freestanding farmhouse. We had great wireless access, which was a nice bonus in such an authentic-feeling Inn. There are small vendors; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hakone Kowakudani Onsen Mizu no To; City: Hakone machi Ashigarashimo gun Kanagawa Prefecture ; Review: This spa hotel is located about 30 minutes beyond Hakone Yamoto, the main train stop in the Hakone area. It is just two stops from the last stop of the train at Gora, at which point the Hakone circuit changes over to tram/cablecar, then ropeway (little gondolas), then boat, then bus or other form of transportation back to your starting point. We liked Mizunoto's location, as it was less congested than Halone Yamoto and gave us a good starting point for the circuit. If you arrive in the afternoon b/w 3-5, there is a driver with van awaiting each train's arrival that will take you the few minutes to the hotel. If for some reason the driver wasn't there, it seemed that there was always a cab waiting at each train stop. The uphill walk with luggage isn't recommended. The hotel itself is very nice and apparently frequented mostly by Japanese domestic travelers. We had a room with mountain view and outdoor cedar soaking tub in the main lobby wing of the building on the 5th floor of 6 floors. It was quite comfortable and streamlined (e.g., cedar walls and floors with some tatami mats) with two futon types beds, which we pushed together to create a "king," as well as a small sofa, floor seating area with table and two chair backs, complimentary snacks, tea pot and fridge, shower and sink area (separate from the bathroom itself.) We were provided with "samue e" outfits (two-piece linen (?) pajamas sets) to wear while there, and most guests wore them to meals as well as while wandering around the resort. There was a separate set that you could wear as actual pajamas, which were lighter in both color and fabric. We also had slippers to change into once in the room and while walking around the hotel's indoor grounds. Those were exchanged for outdoor slippers when we frequented the co-ed outdoor baths, of which there were three that you could use on a first-come, first-serve basis. In the indoor bathhouses, which are segregated by gender and of which there are two different sets, you drop the indoor slippers outside of the door to that facility and then pick them up when you come back out. There is an assortment of all bathing items inside the bathhouse: shampoo, conditioner, body soap, toothbrushes, razors, combs/brushes. You take a full shower before entering any of the baths, since the water is shared by all. The three outdoor private baths, which are coed, are quite nice, each overlooking little garden areas. We actually never used the cedar bath on our room's deck because we used these other private baths instead. By the way, the water that is piped into the guestroom baths is not hot spring water, whereas the water in the outdoor private baths and the indoor/outdoor gender-segregated baths is from the area's hot springs. There are free tasty fruit popsicles, as well as free milk (in the afternoon), outside of the baths. There is also a lobby area bar with free coffee, tea, miso, and; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Tawaraya Ryokan; City: Nakagyo Kyoto Kyoto Prefecture Kinki; Review: We dropped our bags off early in the day, as we had to check out of the Okura Hotel where we had been staying. The Tawayara staff was probably a bit surprised to see us arrive at 10:00 in the morning in order to do that, but they swiftly welcomed us and took our bags for safekeeping. The bags were already in our room when we returned in the afternoon. They also graciously held our bags when we checked out two days later, as we did not plan to leave Kyoto until late that afternoon, well after checkout time. When we finally did return to collect the bags and get a cab to the train station, we sat in the small downstairs study to review our train materials for a moment. Up popped tea! The service never ended, to the somewhat embarrassing, at least for me, way that they send you off. While I didn't want to turn around and watch from the cab, I had seen other guests leave the ryokan before us. The front staff -- 4 people typically -- stand out in front and bid you adieu, but they don't then just turn around and head back inside. They wait there until you are no longer visible, and the whole time while they are waiting for that to happen, which may involve waiting for the light to change from red to green if you are in a cab, each one of them is in a full-on bow. It's a humbling gesture that is consistent with the rest of the experience. Our room was on the second floor, and the woman who was designated as the concierge showed us in and explained various aspects of the room. It was quite large with both a seating area that is shown the photos, another open area where the futons were set up closer to the bathroom that could be closed off with shoji screens from the dining area, and an interesting low-ceiling, rice paper covered small room with daybed, which we ended up using as a dressing area and place to store our luggage. At first I didn't see the value in that area, but since the beds get put away before breakfast, it made for a spot to stretch out during the day should you grow tired of sitting on the floor, though as the photos show, there are chair backs and an arm rest for each person. That little room also helped us maintain the spare and elegant aesthetic in the rest of the room. There is a TV, but it is hidden behind sliding screens, and we never really watched it and wouldn't have even known that it was there had the woman not pointed it out to us. They have a laptop that is available for guest use from 5:00p.m. until around 11:00p.m. or so, upstairs in a study area. There is no wireless, but at a place like this you really want to fully unplug anyway. The bathroom had heated cork floors, the full TOTO, and a; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hilton Tokyo Narita Airport Hotel; City: Narita Chiba Prefecture Kanto; Review: Stayed here for one night before flying out of Narita. Truly appreciated a good night's sleep on the Hilton's mattress that was less firm than what we had typically experienced while in Japan. On the flip side, it was a rude awakening to find that while there was ubiquitous Toto that we had come to love, it was a stripped down version without even the heated seat. Both foreshadowed our re-entry to the U.S. The breakfast buffet held in the lobby restaurant area was much better than we had expected. Spacious area and plenty of choices. The shuttle bus to and from the airport was quick and efficient, as were check-in and check-out. We had just returned from Kyoto to Tokyo by bullet train that day and the easiest way to get to the hotel from the closest station in Tokyo where the bullet train let us off was to take the approximately one-hour long Narita Express (NEX) train back to the airport and then hop the courtesy shuttle to the Hilton. That seemed like it could have been a complicated and unpleasant end to a rather long day of travel, but it wasn't. Signage was clear; no significant waiting. A few computer terminals and a printer were available in the lobby area, as well as Wi-Fi in the same area, though there was no Wi-Fi in the room. One bonus for us, though you did have to pay extra for it, was the pool in the basement. The use of the gym area was complimentary, but the pool, and I believe the bath facilities as well, had a separate entrance charge. Rarely do you find a 25-meter pool in a hotel, complete with lane lines, a few kickboards, some pool buoys and a pace clock. Temp was a tad warm for laps, but not as bad as most hotel pools; perhaps it was 82. Bathing area had lockers, lounge, steam room, cold pool, hot pool, and all of the amenities. It was a great way to stretch out before a long flight. Didn't have time to get a massage, but the prices weren't bad at all for a hotel. If you are a swimmer, look no further.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Peninsula Tokyo; City: Yurakucho Chiyoda Tokyo Tokyo Prefecture Kanto; Review: As we have come to appreciate, one can always count on The Peninsula for excellence: service, location, amenities, concierge services, etc. The Peninsula in the Ginza District of Tokyo is no exception. A great deal of thought has obviously gone into the location and design of the hotel. We booked through American Express' Fine Hotels & Resorts Program, which includes early arrival when possible (didn't need it), guaranteed late check-out (used it), complimentary breakfast (very nice) and upgrades when available (rec'd upgrade to cormer deluxe from deluxe room). Our room, which combined with the bathroom and dressing areas was huge, had a partial view of the Imperial Palace. The bed, as we came to realize as we stayed at other hotels in Japan, were truly comfortable. The room decor, while not cutting-edge in design per se, was very current and soothing, which after each day pounding the Tokyo pavement was much appreciated. All of the usual hoo-hah is there: dual sinks, TOTO accessories, daily newspaper of your choice, WiFi in the room. The spa/fitness area was especially nice, with a lovely steam/sauna area, accompanied by showers with interesting functions beyond the normal waterfall showerhead. The indoor pool area was also very relaxing, and they had goggles, caps -- even suits -- should you need them. For real swimmers, the pool wasn't too warm (approx. 80-82) and there was one designated lap lane; it was roughly 20 yards long. Again, after a long day of sightseeing, it was great to come back and enjoy the respite by the pool and hot tub. What perhaps didn't quite measure-up, was the entry into the hotel, which forces you to walk through the restaurant on the lobby level, split by an open area that you traverse to get to the reception area. Concierge services and the bellman are located on the entrance side of this this area, but to get to reception you have to traipse through that area. We weren't sure what was up with that design decision. However, the subway line was accessible underneath the hotel, which was definitely a plus, and there are shopping and restaurant choices galore in the Ginza District, which is relatively low-key compared to some of the more active areas of Tokyo. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay and feel that it enhanced our Tokyo experience by allowing us to refresh in relative peace and quiet within the megapolis that is Tokyo. We are becoming fans of The Peninsula when traveling to cities that have one (e.g., really liked the Bangkok facility as well). Our stay this time was for the first four nights of a two-week pleasure trip, and we often commented thereafter on how much we enjoyed and appreciated everything about the hotel.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lodge at Whitehawk; City: Clio Graeagle Plumas County California; Review: We stayed here for two nights in early August while exploring the Lakes Basin area north of Truckee. We usually go to Tahoe and thought that it would instead be fun to see what this area had to offer. We were looking for hiking, fly fishing and swimming in lakes. Great area on all of those fronts and not crowded in the least compared to to the Tahoe Basin. I had been a bit concerned about the location of our particular cabin, as we booked late and got a cabin -- it's really a king-bedded great room with adjacent bathroom -- across the lodge road and slightly elevated from the main lodge. Things are more spread out than they appear on the lodge map, so I don't believe that there is any bad cabin. I really enjoyed the view from both the front deck as well as from the bed itself even though the main lodge and small parking lot were visible low in the view field. The cabin itself was quite large and very comfortable, with a cathedral ceiling, wood floors, AC and ceiling fan, a sitting area, small fridge and adjoining full bathroom. Whitehawk is quite different than most of the "lodges" that we saw while in area; the others I would fairly characterize as old and rustic. Most require a minimum one week stay, and all of them, including Whitehawk, close for the winter. While the other lodges have their charm, it's mostly in terms of their proximity to a water feature or hiking trail, not the accommodations or amenities. Whitehawk was very nice to come back to after a long day of hiking, fly fishing and swimming. And the bed/mattress were great! There is a good size pool with hot tub on the property. We didn't use either of those or the tennis courts. If you golf, there is a golf course on the property. It looks well-maintained and has plenty of carts. Breakfast comes with the room, and on that front I would prefer to order off of a menu, even a very limited one, than get the one item that is offered per day. However, it did seem that if you asked for something else that scrambled eggs were available, and coupled with the side dishes (e.g., fruit, sausage) to the featured entree that option would work out well for most breakfast eaters. We also had dinner there our first night, which was convenient given that we could just walk over, as opposed to having to drive at least several miles to get anywhere else. The food was good, but a bit heavy for our tastes. I wouldn't come to this area specifically for the food, though several of the lodges in the area are apparently known for their food. We dined at Packer Lake Lodge the second night and liked the rustic ambience and small size of the place. The food was a bit more to our liking, perhaps because less effort was made to make it seem like more than it was. But it; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Truckee Donner Lodge; City: Truckee Lake Tahoe California California; Review: The location of this hotel, while not lakefront, is close to the east end Donner Lake. What separates the hotel from the lake is the Donner Lake campground, though you couldn't see tents from our room or anything like that. We've stayed there twice for one night each time in advance of the annual open water swim that starts from the east end of the lake. I believe that the last time that we stayed there it was part of the Holiday Inn Express group; apparently it's now an independent hotel. We didn't notice much difference. It's value to us is specific to that swim event due to its location and generally reliable comfort level. However, as a longtime visitor to the Lake Tahoe area I would recommend other hotels and locations at the same price point if you are going for a vacation. Parking is plentiful, and the rooms are spacious and clean in that basic mid-level hotel kind of way. The bed was quite comfortable as well. Aside from being pretty close to the lake (e.g., short drive to east end and you could probably walk there on the road or through the campground as well), there really isn't anything else to see or do right there. I'd view it more as a one-night stay hotel, as opposed to somewhere to stay for multiple nights or an entire vacation. Historic central Truckee is a couple of miles away; there's more going on there as far as restaurants, shopping and entertainment. Lake Tahoe is a solid 20 minute drive from the hotel on either Highway 89 into Tahoe City or on Highway 267 into Kings Beach.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Roosevelt New Orleans A Waldorf Astoria Hotel; City: New Orleans Louisiana; Review: Just spent 6 nights in a standard king room on the 11th floor in Tower 1, and overall I was very pleased with the choice of place to stay. The hotel has a grand, old-school style, with gorgeous mosaic floors and huge chandeliers in the main lobby as well as original murals from the 1930's in the Sazerac Bar (great drinks). The room was perhaps a tad small but very nicely appointed. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the pillows were plentiful; the linens were high quality. The room was very quiet, perhaps because we were on one of the hotel's higher floors. I was somewhat surprised by how quickly the elevators came; there was a bank of four for our tower alone and we never waited for one to arrive. I often resist staying in older hotels or ones that are high-rise because the elevators can be very slow, especially when the hotel is fully booked, which it was with a big convention in town. The room had a huge flat-screen TV, though the wireless internet service required a daily fee. Robes, slippers, an umbrella, easy-to-use floor safe, lots of plugs, etc. The shower took a little getting used to, as it had a hand-held adjustable-height head, a rainfall head and two back spray nozzles. You had to twirl the knob to get the one or combination of heads that you wanted. Hilarity guaranteed. Water pressure was a bit weak, so the handheld actually seemed to be the most powerful. There is a small to medium-sized pool on the 4th floor. It's more of a splash around pool than one for lap swimming. There is a jacuzzi on one end. Bar/food service is available and there are there are plenty of lounge chairs, towels, umbrellas and even a few cabanas. A pool attendant helps with set up. It was a pleasant spot to read the newspaper; both the WSJ and Financial Times were available on a table near the elevators. When I asked about buying a NYT in the gift shop, the woman said that they could deliver one to my door each morning, which they did for the entire stay. I thought that was a gracious touch, even if that paper itself wasn't complimentary. The location was convenient, as it was just one block out either end of the hotel (it spans the block) to Canal Street, and that's where the French Quarter begins. While charming, I think that noise could be a big problem at many of the hotels in the Quarter. Plus there is a huge amount of road repaving/construction going on in the Quarter in preparation for the Superbowl. Either way, we wanted to be somewhat closer to the convention center but also centrally located. The Sazerac Bar is a must visit bar while in town, and Domenica, a highly rated John Besh restaurant within the hotel, has excellent Italian food. There is a counter service coffee/pastry/fruit place that is open to the main lobby as well; it has plenty of comfortable seating and shares the hotel's; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: The Chedi Muscat a GHM hotel; City: Muscat Muscat Governorate; Review: My only gripe about this hotel is the bedroom. The storage space is small, hardly any place to put the suitcases or hang up our clothes or store underwear. The toiletries were small in size, enough for one person only, were not replenished on regular basis, we had to remind housekeeping to do so quite a few times, however the decor was nice and contemporary but impractical, lacking in luxury, (unlike our experience at the Grosvenor House in Dubai whereby the room offered 2 wardrobes for each couple, plenty of drawers and storage space for suitcases and shoes). The internet WIFI service is quite slow and not easily accessible everywhere. The best reception one could get was in the bedroom itself and connection disappears as soon as one walks away into the bathroom area and out of the bedroom. The layout of the hotel, the gardens, landscape and architecture is contemporary and breathtaking, so beautifully manicured. We really enjoyed our stay all the way. The food at this hotel was outstanding. Anil the chef did not fail. He prepared some amazing special recipes of fish and prawns for us that left an unforgettable flavour on our palates. Santhosh the restaurant manager was so attentive, looked after all our needs and choices, made sure our requirements were met for breakfast and dinner. The lunch by the pool was also tasty, we had rice stuffed chargrilled squid was to die for, the salads so healthy and the char grilled prawn salad was yummy. The sashimi by the long infinity pool by the spa was also very fresh, the soups and salads also refreshing. I also enjoyed my freshly squeezed fruit juices prepared up to my liking as well as the margueritas. The food at the fish restaurant was the BEST ever, unbeatable..it was an amazing culinary experience with a beautiful sea view .. We enjoyed the 1 hour fifteen minutes massage at the spa. It was a nice relaxing exercise. The merchandise at the boutique was also interesting. My husband helped himself to some nice silk shirts, I bought a nice traditional necklace and few beach hats. The local male concierge (forgot his name) was also very helpful, he organised a hair dresser to come twice for and the snorkelling tour was excellent. The GM Marcus was also very hospitable with excellent customer relation skills. We will definitely be going back again next May 2015 bank holiday.

Title: Likya Residence and Spa; City: Kalkan Turkish Mediterranean Coast; Review: The room we booked was a suite with breathtaking scenic view. However, the furniture and bed is four star calibre, mattress quite stiff but tolerable, bed linen and towels could be better, there is room for upgrading and improvement of the bedroom facilities (as in Dubai). The male receptionist at the front desk has poor command of English language and it was not easy to communicate with him. The poolside is up to its reputation, it is five star calibre and very classy layout, sun loungers extremely comfortable and bar area very pretty. The cocktails were amazing all made from fresh ingredients. Krissy the bar tender did not fail, she quenched our thirst with her exotic freshly made cocktails, strawberry daiquiri, fresh lemonade and kiwi cocktail are favourites! She can come up with anything you ask for really. The breakfast room is full of character and ambiance, loved the layout and decor. The breakfast meal itself was very healthy, well sourced from fresh produce and tasty high quality ingredients. Even the eggs were truly organic! The dinners were exquisite, mouthwatering fine dining! It was a daily show with different presentations. The charming manager Mohamed Guven was hands on, obliging, very attentive, highly involved and made sure that everything is up to scratch, that everyone else is satisfied and ensured that all requests were fulfilled to perfection. The spa was first class, we had the best massage and Turkish bath ever, even better than the top quality professional high calibre massages we had in Vietnam, Cambodia and Sri Lanka. The 2 masseurs, Nimet and Raim who looked after me and my husband were professional, up to physiotherapist therapeutic level. Each time we came out envigorated and refreshed, all aches and pains gone! What We also liked about this accommodation is that it's very relaxing, no kids no noise to disturb the peace! However the wifi service could be improved, it was only accessible in the swimming pool and dining area!

Title: Hart s Hotel; City: Nottingham Nottinghamshire England; Review: Cute cozy boutique hotel, we were given room 18 with a nice view of greenery and upmarket houses.

Receptionist very helpful, helped carry my luggage and organised a tour of the city for me with a pleasant guide though a bit pricey but he was knowledgeable and interesting. The food at the coffee shop was mediocre, tried the soup, way too creamy and milky, had to send it back. Salad was mostly onions and dressing quite bland. Grilled vegetables were rather fried and oily lacking in flavour. However food at Hart's restaurant was very good, well cooked and tasty, flavoursome and good service, nice buzzy atmosphere. Would visit it again, I guess it's the nicest in the area. I would gladly recommend this place and Harts restaurant too.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Danesfield House Hotel And Spa; City: Medmenham Marlow Buckinghamshire England; Review: We always visit this classy property, enjoy lovely sprawling premises and the sunny conservatory over the weekend for Sunday lunch. The Sunday lunch on the whole is quite good, tasty and healthy in general, quality almost up to standard, the service is courteous and pleasant . This Sunday we missed the lunch hour by few minutes due to delays on the road and were told that we can use the bar menu as an alternative. This proved to be a disaster! We went for the braised lamb, it was disgusting, meat obviously pre-cooked (rather than freshly cooked), the dish was smelly, the meat was tough, the sauce was nasty, ghastly, really unpalatable, we had to send back the two plates. The other choices on the menu were not appetising or appealing, do not leave much to be desired. We settled for the smoked salmon as an alternative to be on the safe side. This turned out out to be a bland boring sandwich, excessively buttered stale sandwich. I had to remove the salmon from the stale bread and add it to the salad. The salmon was not a good variety either, quite salty and greasy, it appeared to be a farmed cheap brand. My suggestion is that there's a great room for improvement on the bar food. They need to include healthier freshly made tastier varieties and cancel all the unhealthy stuff, they need to invest more in the basic ingredients and use far more organic fresh stuff and come up with tastier choices especially that bar food is not cheap by any means, I'm surprised that despite being in the countryside they do not include game on the menu to be cooked with a nice tasty sauce? They need to take a leaf out of some of London's high end hotels and learn how to improve on the bar food, since it was very touristy, awful and cheap compared with the price we paid. I hope they take our point and start taking proper action to keep up with image of the place.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Aninga Lodge; City: Tortuguero Province of Limon; Review: We've been booked by a tour agency called Llamatours to stay at this property few days before this Xmas. It was booked on the basis that it is a four-five star property (obviously, we've been duped and overcharged) The location itself is out if this world, it is nestled within the rainforest, stunning views of the river, stunning breathtaking nature all around. The place has a lot of potentials but sadly it is lacking in luxury and standard. Quite neglected. If I were the owner, I would upgrade it to the highest levels, the spa is rudimentary, very basic and lacking in luxury. My masseuse was good though, very professional. The bathrooms are old dilapidated, poorly lit, narrow with poor quality sink, faucets and poor quality shower, towels very cheap light fabric, poor quality. Toiletteries, very poor cheap quality, luckily, I happened to have my own to share with the family. The catering is mass produced consisting of insipid European influenced meals, tinned unhealthy products, what's expected in a communal canteen, however, the quality of the olive oil and salad greens were very good and fresh. We had to beg the management to get us fresh fish from the local fishermen and have it cooked for us to our taste. They obliged and we paid for it. The cuisine should be about local culinary experience! The service itself is not very professional and very basic. However, the tours were all excellent, up to scratch. The tour guide was very good. The hotel did not live up to its image as to luxury and comfort, they did not supply macs for rain protection, they only provided Wellington boots, which were filthy and muddied. The place would have been out of this world had it been upgraded to a high level of standard as what we experienced in our previous African Safaris as to services, luxury and comfort. Would love to repeat this trip but next time we would ensure to have it in a more luxurious comfortable facility. The breathtaking nature and landscape around this property made us overlook its shortcomings.; Rating: 2.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Tiki Tolteca; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: Tiki Tolteca was the tiki bar we weren't actually looking for... we were trying to go to another famous tiki bar in the area, but I felt like we found a hidden gem when we stopped in. Prices were a little high but the drinks were good and we enjoyed the ambience. We went during a slow time and really enjoyed ourselves with the bar being not crowded.

Title: Parkway Bakery & Tavern; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: There is a reason why this place has lines out the door.

Title: Hansen's Sno-Bliz; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: How I miss being able to get sno balls... this place is awesome. I am not a nola native but my boyfriend is and he took me here. The cream of wedding cake sno ball was awesome on a hot and humid summer day in New Orleans - sweet and almond tasting and coool. The day we went to Hansen's was a rainy one so maybe that's why the line wasn't that long but it's so worth it even with a long line.

Title: Bacchanal Fine Wine & Spirits; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: Fun little spot for live music, wine/cheese and dinner in the Bywater neighborhood. Wine can be reasonably priced depending on what you pick and the cheese you get to pick yourself. Dinner is a bit pricy and the servings are smaller but extremely tasty. Seating can be hard to find if the weather is nice - we had to look for a table and snag it, plus share it with others. Bacchanal is an experience to have in Nola but I don't go every time I'm in Nola.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Superior Seafood & Oyster Bar; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: Great place for brunch and lunch or even dinner. I think the last time I was in Nola we ate here at least 2 times, and we usually go at least once when we're in Nola to have a meal with family. Definitely come for the seafood. The charbroiled oysters are divine. Their po boys, although not parkway, are pretty good and big enough to split. The brunch menu is always good too and they have live music with brunch on the weekends. Superior also has great frozen drinks. The frozen mimosa and the frozen mojito are my favorites. Superior Seafood is a great place to get drinks and or dinner on the parade route - we even had dinner here after a parade.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Saba; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: I've been here a few times when I'm down in Nola. They have very good hummus and pita. The pita is hot and fresh from the oven. I've had large plates here that are good but I think it's more fun to get small plates and share. Shakshuka is delicious here. I love that this place has arak an Arab/Israeli liquor like ouzo or absinthe. Reminds me of Israel. They also have chocolate hazelnut babka that is really good. If you are looking for Israeli or Jewish style food in New Orleans this is the place.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Turkey and the Wolf; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: Definitely worth all the hype. My boyfriend and I went for a late lunch and it was fun! We didn't even have to wait. I love the kitschy decor. We got the deviled eggs to start off. My boyfriend got the baloney sandwich and I got the wedge salad. The deviled eggs were good and I loved the crispy chicken skin on it. The wedge salad was seriously the best I've ever had in my life and it was massively big ( I couldn't finish it so he had to help me). The big chunks of bacon and everything bagel seasoning with fresh dill were a perfect touch!! If you love this place like we did hit up their sister restaurant Molly's rise and dine for breakfast too. Also extremely delicious!! Love y'all. Keep up the good work, mason and gang!!! Only regret is not buying some swag from y'all.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Molly's Rise and Shine; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: We went here I believe the day after we went to Molly's big brother Turkey and the Wolf! Still cool kitschy vibes but for breakfast :) check out the cool mural they have inside!! Get the grand slam sandwich with extra sausage. You will not regret it. It's oh so tasty but even more so with more meat. Also get the pastries. I wish I tried some and completely regret not getting any. The cold brew is tasty too. If you are looking for booze I believe that they do not have it here. But they do have mixers if you have some on hand.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Addis Nola; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: I am from Atlanta so I have enjoyed Ethiopian food at a few great spots (desta, and behel just name a few), so I was excited when I found out Addis opened up here in nola! Addis is in mid city and close to UMC ~ great for medical students like me ;) I have also heard great things about Addis via @turkeyandthewolf so my boyfriend and I finally went. Very cute spot with tables spaced out. There are also cute Ethiopian wares that they sell (coffee serving sets, sun dries). The servers are super friendly ~ we enjoyed talking to Blaze (sorry for possible misspelling) about how we enjoyed the meal and what he liked on the menu. The menu had a lot of vegetarian options as well as classic options like tibs, and veggie platters. I ordered the beef tibs with miser (red lentil) on the side. My boyfriend ordered the ribeye tibs with awaze sauce and red lentils plus shiro as a side. Everything tasted delicious and filled my nostalgia for desta in Atlanta. The injera here I think is teff injera so it is gluten free. I definitely wanna try the shrimp tibs next time. We love Addis and would happily go back soon!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Mopho; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: I was craving banh mi one night, but one of our favorite spots for some reason didn't offer it for delivery so we decided to try mopho. This review is purely on the food and not service - we got our food via delivery. The prices were a little more than typical viet pho spots. I didn't realize mopho was very strong fusion (almost seemed like Indian or some other fusion with Vietnamese) - thought it would still be leaning towards more Vietnamese. The beef pho had a little different flavor than viet style broth and the beef was very thick and chewy. The pho noodles were thicker as well. The pork banh mi had a strong curry flavor and was almost too spicy. I will say the taro bubble tea was delicious. I am not 100% sure we'd eat here again but I have heard that their wings are really good. Mopho just didn't fill our Vietnamese craving like others do.; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | yelp |

Title: Becoming a Category of One: How Extraordinary Companies Transcend Commodity and Defy Comparison; Author: Visit Amazon's Joe Calloway Page; Review: This book is not for every person in business, which is unfortunate because only those who "get" this book will have the years of fulfillment that come from really knowing why they are doing what they are doing and the immense satisfaction and success that comes with that kind of clarity and focus. This is a totally different "how to" business book that requires asking and anwering the most fundamental questions about what you do and why you do it. These are most the difficult questions to answer in a meaningful way, but the rewards are equally great. I had the great good fortune to work in a company that could be another study case for this book, so understand from that perspective the power of what Calloway is talking about. The second half of the book is a little weak and somewhat repetitive, but the first half makes the book more than worth the cover price if you truly want your business to excel and provide a rewarding experience for you and your staff. It's sometimes difficult to admit that, as Calloway points out, we do get what we want most.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sea Kayaker's Deep Trouble: True Stories and Their Lessons from Sea Kayaker Magazine; Author: Matt Broze; Review: Well written series of stories that should provide ample motivation to any sea kayaker to prepare to be safe. If you didn't respect the risks of hypothermia before reading this book, you will after. This is not a how-to of sea kayaking rescue, although rescue attempts are a part of each story. This book gives the reasons to practice your rescues in advance until you are confident of your skills or to stay in waters within your skill level, and gives a real world sense of how to measure your skills.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Water: The Epic Struggle for Wealth, Power, and Civilization; Author: Visit Amazon's Steven Solomon Page; Review: This book provides an enjoyable and accessible overview of the role of water resources in the development of the major civilizations around the world. As a single volume it is necessarily a broad-brush treatment of the subject. The stories of the early Nile River and Tigris-Euphrates civiliations are familiar but enlarged upon somewhat. His discussions of the Indian subcontinent, China, and Europe were less familiar but made more understandable in the context of the near early near-eastern civilazations. Some of Solomon's theories about the shape of governmental systems being derived from the nature of the water resources are instructive and valuable but not rigorously presented. In particular, I thought the focus on the West mastering open-ocean sailing as a critical water-related factor in the fate of civilizations, while interesting, was a stretch for this book. I read the book expecting it to focus on early civilisations, but half of the book chronicles early industrialization and modern times. I was initially disappointed with this, but came away glad that Solomon had brought the issues current, and given a valuable background to current water resoure issues in the U.S. around the world. His discussion on the era of mega-dam construction in the 20th century was very interesting. I found this book a good complement to Jared Diamond's "Guns, Germs, & Steel", sort of picking up where Diamond left off, albeit through the lens of water resources.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Essence of the Upanishads: A Key to Indian Spirituality; Author: Visit Amazon's Eknath Easwaran Page; Review: In all his books Eknath Easwaran is able to engage the reader in the most profound truths of our existence by making them accessible to our current era and applicable to our daily lives. As the title suggests, this volume distills and illuminates the universal meaning of what are the most penetrating spiritual texts created in any human civilisation - the Upanishads. Easwaran does this through a conversational commentary on a story told in the Katha Upanishad of a young man who confronts Death with the courage and uncompromised clarity of youth. This is not an academic treatise on an ancient Hindu text, or a contemporary discussion of spiritual concepts. This book, drawing upon the spiritual giants of all religious traditions, is a window on the the challenges and immense rewards of a life devoted to realizing the deepest meaning and fullest vision of what it is to be human from the perspective of a humble man who lived that life. Eknath Easwaran moved to he U.S. in 1959 from India as a Fullbright exchange scholar in English literature, and taught what may have been the first accredited meditation class in this country at the University of California at Berkeley.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: How to Read a Balance Sheet: The Bottom Line on What You Need to Know about Cash Flow, Assets,; Author: Visit Amazon's Rick Makoujy Page; Review: A good basic primer written in an approachable style without being dumbed down. The writer gives good overview of Balance Sheet and Income Statement, discounting the relative importance of Cash Flow statement. Interesting discussion of aspects of financial statements that are subject to manipulation.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Options for the Beginner And Beyond: Unlock the Opportunities And Minimize the Risks; Author: W. Olmstead; Review: You could consider this an introductory book on the subject, but the author covers a lot of material. Well well constructed and well-written with useful trade graphs. Good overview and good reference book.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Five Rules for Successful Stock Investing: Morningstar's Guide to Building Wealth and Winning in the Market; Author: Visit Amazon's Pat Dorsey Page; Review: The Five Rules is a solid platform for investing in stocks based on fundamental analysis. All aspects of financial reports are covered in good detail with valuable discussion on what different aspects of the balance sheet or income statement can reveal about a company. Also a very good discussion of different industry groups and how analysis of the fundamentals of these industries need to focus on different factors.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: A Complete Guide To Volume Price Analysis; Author: Visit Amazon's Anna Coulling Page; Review: Good introduction to volume price analysis focusing on specific technical signals. Fairly repetitive and the author spends a lot of time trying to convince you how important volume is in trading.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Boys in the Boat: Nine Americans and Their Epic Quest for Gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics; Author: Visit Amazon's Daniel James Brown Page; Review: As a former oarsman, I thoroughly enjoyed the story.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali; Author: Swami Satchidananda; Review: Accessible but illuminating translation with the stamp of authenticity only provided by one who has realized much of what the sutras teach. I am not a follower of Sri Satchidananda, but very much appreciate his succinct, current, and gentle explication of these profound and timeless teachings from Patanjali. I also appreciated the translation of the specific Sanskrit words that comprise each sutra. For me, this grounded the translation in the primary texts and historical context of Raja Yoga.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Lemongrass Hotel; City: Patong Kathu Phuket; Review: My husband and I recently spent 5 nights at the Lemongrass. Our room wasn't cleaned yet when we got there (ax round 2 pm which is the check-in time), but staff was very apologetic and allowed us to leave our luggage there while we went and explored a bit. W had a room on the street side of the hotel (#201) and it was very spacious. The room had a small electronic safe which was easy to use and nice to have. The only bad thing about this room location is that you get a lot of "road" noise from praising taxis/tuk tuks with loud speakers and ambulances ( of course, which is no fault of the hotel). Our first night here, Monday, dec 30, something across the street had a huge party with live music and fireworks-so no sleep was possible until after 10 or 11 pm. The location of hotel is about 15 minute walk from Bangladesh Rd ( where all the night life is) and 10 min walk from Patong Beach. The restaurant at hotel was good (open 7 am-11pm). The beds are hard, which I know many people complain about-but we know that it's normal for this area of the world. The staff at the hotel were very accommodating. My husband has a stomach bug ( which we think he caught from the sushi at the nearby "fresh"/open air market-so BEWARE) that kept him in the room for 2+ days and the staff were very helpful in trying to get an excursion changed that we had scheduled during that time and overall concerned for his well-being. I spent quite a bit of time in the lobby area reading during those two days and I observed the owner mingling with hotel and restaurant customers on multiple occasions!! The owner also helped set up a taxi to get us to the airport for our 1:15 am departure-ugh!!! The other perk to this hotel is that there is a 24-hour family mart ( convenient store) next to hotel which is nice if you have to make frequent Gatorade/water runs for a sick companion in the middle of the night :). Also, for those worried about safety-I can say without a doubt that I never felt unsafe in this area. I was out alone multiple times including a walk to the beach at night and never had any problems or concerns. There is no shortage of restaurants, massage shops, tattoo shops, and shopping in this area. This hotel is great for those who are looking for in expensive options.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Kata Blue Sea Resort; City: Karon Phuket; Review: My husband and I spent the first 5 nights of our vacation here. The hotel was very helpful arranging a transfer from the airport (1000 baht) for 12:30 am. Our room had some plumbing issues and we were switched rooms when an empty room was available. Yes, beds are hard, but that's normal in this part of the world! Breakfast was fair ( fresh watermelon, fresh pineapple, cereal, toast, bacon, eggs to order and juices). The pool water was cold compared to the ocean water, but the pool area was very clean. The construction across the road was annoying but this is no fault of the hotel. Hotel is located about a 10 minute walk from beach and there are plenty of restaurants along the way. It is also walkable to get to Kata Noi and Karon beaches from here. There is also an awesome large market with clothing, souvenirs, bags, fresh food, and anything else you'd ever want, which is open on Mondays and Thursdays. Overall. Customer service is great and I wouldn't hesitate recommending to anyone. P.S.there is no fitness center available, but it wouldn't let me deselect a rating-sorry!!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Riu Bambu; City: Punta Cana La Altagracia Province Dominican Republic; Review: I am an avid reader of reviews prior to going on vacations. Normally, I would say that 75% of "bad reviews" I attribute to people being picky and having unrealistic expectations. In most cases, if I do end up staying in a place with the "bad" reviews, usually I do not share the bad opinions. However, in this case, I would agree with numerous things that previous reviewers have stated. There are a few things I would like to disclose to start with prior to going through the good, bad, and just plain ugly. If you do not wish to take the time to read my individual comments, I will give you an abbreviated version. I WOULD DEFINITELY RETURN TO THIS AREA FOR THE GORGEOUS BEACH AREA, WHICH IS NEVER ENDING...BUT, I WOULD NEVER RETURN TO THIS RESORT!! Now a little about my travel background... 1) This was my first time traveling to the Dominican Republic 2) My husband and I have been to 5 different All-Inclusive Resorts between Jamaica and Cancun prior to this trip 3) I do not feel as though I am a picky eater or have unrealistic expectations 4) This trip was booked through Apple Vacations as a 5-Apple Square Deal Good: 1) Staff was pleasant 2) Drinks were not "weak" 3) Beach area is amazing, minimal seaweed and crud. You can walk for 1-2 hours at least in either direction from the resort. 4) The resort has a lot of palm trees on the beach and throughout the ground which provides some shade 5) Easy to use safe within the room that was pretty big. Bad 1) Staff was not as friendly as we have experienced in other prior all-inclusive experiences. I think part of this may have been the language barriers as there was much less English spoken both by guests and staff compared to resorts we've been too in Cancun. 2) Rooms are outdated. Again a fairly minor detail since we spend very little time in the room except to sleep!! However, we were initially given a room with two double beds pushed together to make a King bed...so there was a big crack between the two beds. We were able to switch rooms to get a "real" King matress during the second day. 3) The rooms never seem to get "cool." The A/C and fans were running constantly, but the rooms never seemed to get cool despite having the thermostat set at the lowest temperature. 4) Alcoholic drink choices are limited. The bars did have "menus" but if the drink you wanted wasn't in the menu and you didn't speak Spanish, it was impossible to get the "correct" drink. UGLY: 1) Bath towels smelled musty and like mildew EVERY DAY. We did read other reviews that talked about housekeeping using the bath towels to mop the floor, which would explain a little of the horrible smell, and we did in fact witness this!! I'm sure the towels are washed after mopping the floors, but even so, in my mind this is still unacceptable!! 2); Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Riu Palace Macao; City: Punta Cana La Altagracia Province Dominican Republic; Review: We stayed 5 nights here, the atmosphere is very relaxing with an older population than we are used to when we travel to all-inclusives. Room: average size, bathroom was fairly spacious but the toilet was in an odd location-almost behind the door-but not a big deal. Had quite a bit of sink/counter space with his/her sinks. There was a hairdryer provided along with conditioner, bath gel, and lotion. There was an electronic safe available in the closet. Room had liquor dispensers (although we didn't use) and fridge with water, soda and beer was restocked regularly. Air conditioning worked well. Our view (room 3000) was the parking lot/front area of the resort, but we didn't spend any time on the balcony anyway. Because the resort sits so far back from the water, I would think there's probably only a handful of rooms that would actually be ocean view. Rooms do still have the old style key (no card key), but not a big deal for us. Service: excellent, staff constantly greeting you in the walkways and other areas. Staff within the buffet was very quick to clear plates and bring beverages. There is no gym on site-you do have access to the gym at the palace Bavaro next door-which is sub-par considering how many people that gym is for. The gym has 3 treadmills, 2 ellipticals, 1 stepper, 1 stationary bike, a few stability balls, 8 & 11# hand weights and a couple of machines. It was probably 75 degrees F in the gym and no wipes or anything to clean off equipment which was slightly disturbing!! The entertainment staff does work tirelessly throughout the day and night to try and get people involved. Food:definitely a wide assortment in the buffet for breakfast and dinner. We only ate at buffet one time for dinner and to be honest we kind of found the food bland-but we didn't leave hungry by any means. We also are at each of the 4 specialty restaurants-my husband had a fantastic steak at the Japanese specialty restaurant and also had a good beef fillet at Krystal restaurant-these were definitely our 2 favorite specialty restaurants. The other 2 (steakhouse and Italian) were just okay in our opinion-but again we didn't leave hungry. We didn't get a chance to try the Krystal restaurant for lunch, which was disappointing as it was a sit down, order from a menu meal versus the buffet. Beach: the beach is very large here as the resort sits back a ways from the ocean-there is plenty of palm trees for shade between the beach and resort-you can walk either direction from the resort for at least 2+ miles without any problem (maybe more, we just didn't go further). Yes, there is seaweed and we found the amount of seaweed varied from day to day (maybe due to wind)??? But it is naturally occurring so I'm not sure what people expect the resorts to do about it-there are often workers out on the beach trying to clean up the seaweed. Would we return?! Maybe, it was; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Dreams Huatulco Resort Spa; City: Huatulco Southern Mexico; Review: We are just returning from a week-long vacation to the Dreams. This was our first time in Huatulco but have stayed at Dreams resorts in 2 other locations. We frequent all-inclusive resorts and have stayed at 6 all inclusive resorts in Cancun, 2 in Punta Cana, 2 in Puerto Vallarta, 1 in Jamaica and 1 in Los Cabos. This was our second all inclusive experience with a baby (10.5 month old). General observations: -the sun is very strong, even locals were using 50 spf sunscreen...the weather was fairly humid with highs in upper 80s/low90s and lows in the upper 70s, sitting by the pools there is normally a nice breeze off the ocean so the temps don’t feel too bad if you’re in the shade or pools -the seaside grill, Japanese restaurant and oceana are all open air restaurants so these tend to be very hot in the evenings as they don’t get much breeze off the ocean -we did not do any excursions, did not use the spa or explorer club for kids so I cannot comment on these things -we also did not attend any of the evening entertainment shows...the entertainment staff were around a little throughout the day, but I felt like the daily events weren’t advertised/announced well...although sometimes at other resorts in the past I feel like we would get badgered by the entertainment staff to participate -the beach area is nice and sand is walkable barefoot, there is an area where you can walk probably 15 minutes one way...there are people trying to sell souvenirs and excursions on the beach, but they weren’t pushy with us -we did not sit through any “talks” or informational sessions to get our resort coupons...we’ve done this in the past and never used the coupons anyway -I tend to attract any biting bugs (ie mosquitos) within a 10 mike radius and this trip was no different, my husband never got any bites or noticed them, and my legs had quite a few bites, although I never would see them -the resort had water sports available, but this wasn’t feasible with a 10.5 month old...the ocean was pretty rough overall (red flag conditions) the whole time we were there -our room (1301) was the furthest room to the east of the resort on the 3rd floor, overlooking one of the adults only pools and Japanese restaurant..the room was fairly inconvenient as far as distance from the lobby/main pool area and main restaurant areahad a mini fridge with beers, soda, juices and water..the mini safe worked fine and there were robes and slippers available...I cannot comment about the variety of tv stations as we didn’t watch tv, but I did notice that there was a DVD player available...the Air conditioning was fair at best, despite having our thermostat turned down to 18.0 Celsius (the lowest we could turn it down to), the coldest it ever got in our room was 19.6 (which doesn’t sound bad except when you’re laying in bed sweating all night)...the bathroom is small but fairly modern, the room itself; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Sheraton West Des Moines Hotel; City: West Des Moines Iowa; Review: Room was nice and clean overall, but we had a difficult time getting the AC below 73 degrees even though we turned down the thermostat. The temperature of the indoor pool was downright cold. It costs $10 to park and wireless internet was around $4/day for basic internet and more expensive for premium (I am not sure of the exact cost). The hotel did provide a crib for our toddler which was nice (I don’t think we got charged anything additional for it that I’m aware of). Staff was pleasant. There was a breakfast buffet available for an additional $14/adult, which we did not try. Location is easy to find off I-235. Applebees, McDonalds, Burger King, Cracker Barrel all within walking distance.; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: 010-10987-03 Replacement Battery for Garmin Nuvi 850, 860, 860T,; Brand: UpStart Battery; Review: I bought this battery for use with Garmin Nuvi 850. The GPS unit does not communicate with this battery. This means the battery meter on the GPS always shows the battery is completely depleted whether it has any charge, and when you charge it there is no indication that charging is completed. I used the newly arrived battery for at least one hour before the GPS unit shut down. I charged the battery overnight, and it again ran for at least an hour before the GPS shut down. Bottom line: the battery is fine if you don't mind not using the battery meter on the GPS.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: SANOXY® USB 2.0 2.5 HARD DRIVE SATA HDD EXTERNAL CASE ENCLOSURE (2.5" SLIM HDD 1000GB); Brand: SANOXY; Review: This is an inexpensive way to make a spare 2.5 inch SATA hard drive into an external drive. Although the construction is not very solid, it is good enough for me to use as a backup drive at my desk. No tool is needed to install the hard drive into the box: press a little "button" to open the top cover (and bottom cover if you need to), insert the drive into the SATA connector, and close the cover. The four screws that came with it are a little too long, but I don't think they are needed, so I don't use them. The cable has two USB connectors on one end; you may only need to use one (the one with thicker cable); the second one (with thinner cable) only contains 5V lines and is used if the hard drive needs more power from the computer.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Rankie Mini DisplayPort (Mini DP) to HDMI Cable, 4K Ready, 6 Feet; Brand: Rankie; Review: I have used this cable on two mac computers to connect to Acer monitor and Samsung smart TV, with mixed results: (1) For the 13-inch mid 2009 MacBook Pro, it worked well with both the Acer monitor and the Samsung TV; it puts out video but no audio, as expected for the 2009 MacBook Pro. (2) For the 15-inch 2014 MacBook Pro, it did not work with the Acer monitor at all but worked well with the Samsung TV. When the 2014 MacBook Pro was connected to the Acer monitor, it recognized the monitor, automatically changed the screen resolution on the mac to match the external monitor, and automatically sets mac to "mirroring", but the Acer monitor displays "no signal" and there is no video or audio. When I connected the 2014 MacBook Pro to the Samsung TV, both video and audio worked well. Using this same cable I have run these tests a couple of times and have gotten the same results. It seems like the signal strength from the HDMI output is not high enough when the cable is used to connect the 2014 mac to the Acer monitor; it could be that this particular 2014 mac MiniDisplay output signal level is lower than the 2009 mac, or the Acer monitor HDMI input is less sensitive than the Samsung TV, or this particular cable has a little too much loss which when combined with either of the above situations would make the connection not work. I actually bought two cables but gave away the other cable before I tried the cable with with 2014 mac, so I don't know if the other cable would have worked with both 2009 and 2014 macs. I will update this review when I can get hold of the other cable.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: ARRIS DOCSIS 3.0 Residential Gateway with 802.11n/ 4 GigaPort Router/ 2-Voice Lines Certified with Comcast (TG862G-CT); Brand: ARRIS; Review: It worked well as designed. Like many users have said, the biggest problem with this product is its relatively poor wifi performance, because it only operates in the crowded 2.4 GHz band; it has to slow down to maintain connection reliability. In our home, the download speed is about 120 Mbps at the Ethernet port of the router, but the wifi speed within 3 feet from the router is only about 60 Mbps, and drops to 1-30 mbps in other rooms in the house. With the previous Arris dual-band modem/router (no phone port) that we had, we got about 90 Mbps 3 feet from the router, dropping to about 5 Mbps in the worst case room. Unfortunately this product is the only Comcast-approved retail triple play modem in our area (San Francisco Bay region).; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | amazon_Electronics |

Title: Tropic of Cancer CD; Author: Visit Amazon's Henry Miller Page; Review: Nearly finished yet it delivers in Miller's eloquent, and sometimes brutally graphic and honest style. Tropic of Cancer seems better yet both proved to be good reads. Looking for an author that won't put you to sleep, try Henry Miller's titles. The story development can be slow at times yet he makes up for it when he lets loose with his incredibly descriptive writing.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: The Myth of Nations: The Medieval Origins of Europe; Author: Visit Amazon's Patrick J. Geary Page; Review: Having an interest in the medieval origins of peoples/ethnicities, I figured this would be an interesting read. Not too long or tiresome and the theory regarding the fluid nature of Europe's populations developed by the author is a quite different approach to much of the medieval history we are already comfortable with. Some new historical concepts regarding 'peoples' or 'tribes', etc.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Fighter Planes (Pull Ahead Books); Author: Visit Amazon's Jeffrey Zuehlke Page; Review: makes this a wise choice for a younger child.

Title: The Noisy Airplane Ride; Author: Visit Amazon's Mike Downs Page; Review: Otherwise, it can be read to them at night for a child that is in the airplane stage. With plenty of D-I-Y sound-effects, they'll probably enjoy being read to as you make all the goofy plane noises the book encourages. I think if a flight is coming up for the first time for a little guy or girl, it's probably even more appropriate.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Wings Over America: The Fact-Filled Guide to The Major and Regional Airlines of the U.S.A.; Author: Visit Amazon's Michael Coscia Page; Review: if you're looking for more info. regarding the big carriers in the U.S. as well as any further detail about specific planes, this is a bad selection. It focuses on relatively unheard of connecter and commuter lines while adding chapter upon chapter of the history of said insignificant airline. Boring and definitely not what I thought I was getting. My 3 year-old is more interested in the surprisingly few pictures within this book. Not terrible, just not as expected.

Title: Too Fat to Fish; Author: Visit Amazon's Artie Lange Page; Review: If you are familiar with Artie Lange at all through the Stern Show or elsewhere, you won't be able to put this down as you laugh aloud. He's a great storyteller, but it's definitely R-rated comedy and anecdotes, and the tales of his trial and tribulations will keep you reading right to the end. Never heard of him? Check out some you-tube on Artie and pick this up. It's well worth it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The World's Top 500 Airports; Author: David Wragg; Review: This is certainly interesting to an aviation enthusiast, as it details every airport from the U.S. to Bangladesh, though it is quite technical and offers only a few actual pics of the airports themselves-something I was hoping there would be more of. The small bits of history regarding each airport are welcome yet it leaves too much out for the layperson. Better suited for a proffessional flier.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Oil!; Author: Visit Amazon's Upton Sinclair Page; Review: The Oscar-winning 'There Will Be Blood' piqued my interest in the book that inspired the movie and as the novels tend to be more interesting, I was anticipating a great read. Not being familiar with Upton Sinclair, I didn't know what sort of writing to expect but it proved to be vastly different from the film (I'm not sure how they adapted it for the screen) and Oil was about 200 pages longer than it needed to be and was unentertaining at best. Didn't care for his writing with the overly complex characters that meant little to the plot or climax. Based in the early 20th century, the time period left potential for more gripping conflicts yet he spent more time trying to create a social commentary based on his disappointment with contemporary politics that seemed to get in the way of the foundation of the story. Many things appear 'shoe-horned' in to make a statement.; Rating: 2.0/5.0

It's a quick read but welcome departure from the more proper and less 'vulgar' titles I read. As a comic, Norton certainly pushes the line with regards to what some may deem filthy or cringe-worthy yet, if taken way less seriously, his book represents a great comedian writing some of his funniest material on paper and taking it a step further.

Title: 1177 B.C.: The Year Civilization Collapsed (Turning Points in Ancient History); Author: Visit Amazon's Eric H. Cline Page; Review: Received on time and in excellent condition. Material is rather dry and scientific. The author fills many chapters with information related to ancient trade routes, treaties, politics, etc., which is presented in a flat and monotone fashion. He constantly tries to disprove any theory of a collapse due to an invasion from hostile peoples while instead positing that most evidence points to a cyclical rise and fall of empires secondary to deterioration of trade and commerce.

Title: 'Don't Make the Black Kids Angry': The hoax of black victimization and those who enable it.; Author: Mr. Colin Flaherty; Review: See my review of Flaherty's 'White Girl Bleed A Lot'. You won't be disappointed with either. Buy both and read them and then share them with others. Colin's reporting and archiving in this book are indisputable.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Antidote: Healing America From the Poison of Hate, Blame and Victimhood; Author: Jesse Lee Peterson; Review: Great read, especially if your familiar with JLPeterson; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Redneck Manifesto; Author: Visit Amazon's Jim Goad Page; Review: Jim Goad will someday, maybe not in his lifetime, be recognized as the intelligent, thought-provoking, boundary-pushing and outright notable 21st century author he is. Even if you disagree with some of his conservative views, the information he floods you with will make you perceive things slightly different directly afterward. Don't be afraid to question some of the things you've though were fact since high school. Yes, it's perfectly reasonable to be a white Westerner and not think you're the cause of the world's problems.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Jan Sobieski: The King Who Saved Europe; Author: Visit Amazon's Miltiades Varvounis Page; Review: If you enjoy Polish and even European history, the story of this king and his incredible exploits against the Ottomans to save Europe from an Islamic invasion is fascinating. It's a shame few know the name because as you'll read herein, he was one of those right men at the exact right moment in history a la Caesar and Patton, and so on. Well written and an easy read; doesn't get so detailed that you'll lose interest. Just enough to keep the pages turning.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: And the Mountains Echoed; Author: Hosdeini Khaled; Review: An interesting and descriptive detail of a life style quite different from mine. Not too many quick changes in timeframe (flashbacks,etc.) make it more palitable and attention-holding. Character development is weak in some places. I would have also wished for more descriptive detail of settings (location). Certainly worth reading, but don't expect a happy ending; rather somber.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Aparthotel Globus; City: Krakow Lesser Poland Province Southern Poland; Review: Had a lovely stay here, the staf were brilliant and organised taxis to and from airport and our excursions. The breakfast was lovely and bedrooms were spacious and very clean. It's in a great location, 10 minute walk from square and shops. Highly recommended.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Place in Rome; City: Rome Lazio; Review: This is more of a guest house than a hotel, but it's a good location, a little difficult to find though. The staff are very nice and the rooms are immaculate, cleaned every day with fresh towels provided. The breakfast was nice too, pastries, yogurt, juice and coffee. The room had a TV but no batteries in the remote so we never used it. The only disappointment was no tea or coffee making facilities in the room. We were led to believe that there was a hot drinks vending machine on the website we booked from but there wasn't. Apart from that it was all good.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Globales Apartamentos Verdemar; City: Santa Ponsa Calvia Majorca Balearic Islands; Review: The first room we were given was totally inadequate for 3 people, a small single wardrobe, no drawers and a pull-out bed. We had to pay 175 Euro for an upgrade. This room has a fantastic view and was very spacious. The staff were all very pleasant and the hotel is immaculate. Downside is the 3.50 Euro charge for sunloungers, you have to be there by 8am or forget it, not enough parasols either. The restaurant was very good and reasonable prices. Location is excellent, close to beach, many shops, bars, restaurants and the square. Unfortunately I found the hotel noisy, they should invest in soundproofing, could hear toilets flushing in other apartments. The noise of trolley cases being wheeled around at all hours drive me mad, and why do people need to have 90 minute conversations in corridors at 2am? (Don't want to disturb their own kids, but hey, mine don't mind!) Wi-Fi was very expensive, 6 Euro per day, so I didn't bother. The lovely view and very nice room made up for the negatives.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Glass House: The 1% Economy and the Shattering of the All-American Town; Author: Visit Amazon's Brian Alexander Page; Review: This was a book picked for my book club and we had along decision on this pick. It was full of information as to why a company that has a good product can be brought down by the 1%'ers. In the same vain as "Hillbilly Eulogy" but more on the technical/economic side. I found "Glass House" interesting because I live in Ohio and went to a wedding in Lancaster. We went through the glass museum so the history was familiar to me. I think it gave me a better understanding of why it will take great effort to bring us out of our current employment difficulties. Very eye-opening.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Just One Evil Act (Inspector Lynley, #18); Author: Elizabeth George; Genres: thriller, crime, fiction, mystery; Review: I'm afraid that this series has gone past it's rote formula way of writing. Barbara Havers can only help anyone by doing something that crosses the line, Thomas Lynley can only investigate so far before going to see St James for help, Lynley plods through personal relationships at a pace that makes a snail seem speedy, and a plot line that frankly could be figured out from the first few chapters. The only surprise is why I kept plodding through one unbelievable chapter after another.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Fools Rush In; Author: Kristan Higgins; Genres: romance, fiction; Review: I wanted this book to get better, but I got more and more bored with the characters with each turn of the page. I didn't like the main character and knew from the end of the first chapter exactly what was going to happen. There was no surprises and the cast of supporting characters were totally from the chic-lit list of characters to have in your book. I was surprised at my reaction to this book since I've liked other books by Kristan Higgins.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Cop Town; Author: Karin Slaughter; Genres: history, mystery, thriller, crime, biography, historical fiction, fiction; Review: I really enjoyed this book - so much so that I read it in one sitting. The characters were very well developed and interesting. The plot was well paced and moved swiftly. I grew up in the south in the 70's and this really reflects what was happening at the time. The story doesn't whitewash the tensions between races and sexes. It really sets the tone of the story. I'm only sad to know that this is a stand alone as I would be very interested in learning more about the characters.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Astronaut Wives Club; Author: Lily Koppel; Genres: history, biography, historical fiction, non-fiction, fiction; Review: This book was really informative about a group of women who history has not given enough credit.

Title: Death of a Policeman (Hamish Macbeth, #29); Author: M.C. Beaton; Genres: mystery, thriller, crime, romance, fiction; Review: I really don't understand how there could have been 29 previous books. The main character commits various crimes and characters are introduced seemingly just to allow more crimes to be committed by the main character and then randomly killed off. There is no real procedural police work and crime(s) seem to be solved only by accident.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: I Must Say: My Life as a Humble Comedy Legend; Author: Martin Short; Genres: history, non-fiction, biography, historical fiction; Review: I liked this book, but it definitely was better as an audio book.

Title: Mercure Alger Aeroport; City: Bab Ezzouar Algiers Province; Review: I stayed in this hotel for 3 days, although the lobby seems nice but its not the case inside rooms, rooms furniture is a standard of a 4 star hotel, beds are not comfortable, no varieties in TV specially if you are not a french speaking person. breakfast in restaurant has very few options, although fruits and sweets are a good option in the buffet. this hotel should refurbish their room furniture, and put some amenities inside room, also restaurant should increase the food options to comply with different cultures. If this is the standard of a 4 star hotel in Algeria, then other hotels would be a mess!!!!; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Jaz Aquamarine Resort; City: Hurghada Red Sea and Sinai; Review: First i would like everyone that reads this review to know that i am Egyptian, so i am writing this review to make visitors to this hotel not deceived by fake reviews, i have visited much better hotels in sharm el shaikh and this was my first stay in a hotel in Hurghada but i am sure there are better hotels there, 1) Hotel Design and Infrastrucutre: this is the best part, the hotel has all what is requested for 5* hotels and alot of swimming pools and some of them are designed for young kids, the resort is very big with 1300 rooms, this thing you will not like if you are going there for calm vacation, while you will entertain your stay if you are a family with kids. 2) Cleanliness: One of the best things in this hotel. 3) Hotel room (Double superior family room): wide room with good view to the swimming pools. 4) Restaurants: a- Topaz (main restaurant): very big restaurant with poor food quality, it looks like school dinner hall, best thing to get in breakfast is the bakeries. b- La Perla (Snacks restaurant): Good for purpose, you can't find alot of choices there, pizza is the worst item you can choose and worst pizza i have ever tasted. Burger is ok as well as spaghetti c- Senarra (a la carta fish restaurant): you have a one visit to any of the four a la carta restaurants, i have tried the fish restaurant, it was very good and service there was excellent. 5) Services: it seems that due to bad management, staff is reflecting low level of profeesionality, you feel that staff needs alot of training on how to deliver service in proffessional way. 6) Activities: I went with family to mermed submarine, they took us in a trip to a coral where we saw some small fish, i believe there is much can be done with the amount of money i paid for this trip. I believe this hotel can be much better.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Raouche Arjaan by Rotana; City: Beirut; Review: The first thing that i have noticed in the hotel that they insist to get a deposit although i was a business guest and i asked them to remove the mini bar from my room!!!! I refused to pay the deposit specially that they asked for 400-500 USD and will return it back in Lebanese pounds, at the end they agreed not to take anything after a long hassle and negotiations from my company I have noticed when i went to my room that there is no price list of the items in the mini bar and when the room service came to empty the it as i ordered they discovered that the minibar isnt complete, which would cause me a problem when checking out!!! So i advice you to take care and order a price list for the mini bar before using it or order to empty it in check in if you are not intending to use. the internet connection in the hotel is really mess, i felt that i have returned back to the age of dialup or even worse, and it costs 22 USD per day. What i recommend is that you buy a data line from alpha or Zain Touch and start to use it instead. The main restaurant doesnt have alot of options in the breakfast but it was ok for me, the lunch was much better specially the sweets and salads. While in lebanon i recommend to try Barbar restaurant in Hamra street, Kalaa Chicken near the hotel and Abdul Wahab resturant near down town.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Tian Feng Grand Hotel; City: Nanjing Jiangsu; Review: The hotel is excellent, near main shopping area in Nanjing (XinJieKou) which is the intersection of Nanjing 2 line metro. The hotel is a walking distance from metro station and lot of nearby international restaurants (McDonald's, Pizza Hut, KFC, ...etc). I had a room in the 25th floor where the view is very good and away from noise, the room is spacious and very clean with a glass desk and rocking chair. I highly recommend this hotel if are seeking comfort and being near to almost everything.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Ibis Hotel Nanjing Zhonghua; City: Nanjing Jiangsu; Review: This Hotel is good for budget 2 star hotel. What's Good? 1) Rooms are clean. 2) Good Location, walking distance from Metro and Aqua City Mall. 3) You can find more that one person in the reception who can speak English. 4) Good choice for budget hotel if you don't need some amenities in the room. 5) Good wired internet connection and water boiler in the room. What's Bad? 1) The rooms are very small. 2) There is no fridge inside room which was a big problem for me as i had to take food for the trip with me as i am Muslim and its very hard to find suitable food there. 3) Bathroom is too small and towels are torn and old!!! In conclusion: Its a good choice if money matters and you don't need some amenities like fridge in the room.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Lemon Tree Hotel East Delhi Mall Kaushambi; City: Ghaziabad Ghaziabad District Uttar Pradesh; Review: The staff are so helpful and serve you with a smile, this hotel has a very relaxing atmosphere after a long day of work in Noida, the rooms are neat and clean, the restaurant "Citrus" has fabulous food option with real authentic Indian taste, i liked their food and i would like to appreciate the efforts done by the staff of the restaurant to serve customers. The hotel is next to EDM mall where you have varieties of restaurants and shopping options without going into the hassle of moving around the city and transportation, i recommend this hotel for any traveler to Noida or East Delhi for any purpose. I also recommend to have the 700 INR package which allow you to have internet connection for the whole day, major meal (Lunch/Dinner) in addition to 2 pcs of cloth to be cleaned per day. For sure i will stay in this hotel whenever i come to Delhi.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Westpoint Executive Suites; City: Johannesburg Greater Johannesburg Gauteng; Review: I stayed in this place during March till April 2013, then came back in Mid of May till June 2013. The place is a good choice for long term stays in Jo'burg, the place is very secure and have some activities to do inside, e.g. there is small swimming pool, Grilling facilities for booking, small GYM. Also the location of Westpoint is perfect as its resides in heart of Sandton where business offices and commercial areas, its 20 min walk from Mandella square and there is near by PicknPay and Woolworth for shopping your groceries, also the next traffic light has McDonalds where you can grape a meal if you need something quick. The Westpoint staff are so friendly and helpful.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Iran Hotel; City: Isfahan Isfahan Province; Review: very clean and recommended budget hotel, i stayed there for one night. The staff is very kind and helpful. The location of the hotel is in the center of all Esfahan attractive places, including Naqsh-e Jahan Square, Sheikh-Lotfollah Mosque, Khajou Bridge, Hasht Behesht Palace and many other places. Its also near main shopping street and a lot of good restaurants. This hotel is very recommended for solo travelers as well as friends who are traveling together.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Mercure Secession Wien; City: Vienna; Review: I spent 12 nights recently at this hotel, and from all aspects found it very good. The location is excellent - 3 minutes from the Nachsmarkt, 2 minutes from the metro stop & 10 minutes from the Hofburg Palace & Museums Quartier. Given some of the reviews, I was quite anxious about my (long) stay. However, it was very pleasant. The room was spacious, lovely linen, wifi (at a fee) available & free access to the pc in the lobby. The reception staff were incredibly helpful: nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was fabulous & included in the rate - healthy options as well as standard cooked options. I look forward to staying there again.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Jahongir Bed and Breakfast; City: Samarkand Samarqand Province; Review: I stayed here with a group of 12 friends for 4 nights. I cannot speak highly enough of the warm welcome and attentive service we received from Odil, Zarfar and the entire family. The location is excellent - just a 5-minute walk from the Registan. The rooms are immaculate, generously proportioned with good bathrooms - great showers. Breakfast is delicious: fruit, yoghurt, eggs, pancakes, bread and jams. The courtyard was a lovely spot to relax with a pot of green tea. Wifi was available. A member of our group was seriously ill one morning -- Odil's quick action resulted in a doctor arriving within 10 minutes and the friend was attached to a drip within 30 minutes. After a full day's rest she was fine. I have visited Samarkand several times and the Jahongir is by far the most comfortable place I have stayed. Highly recommended.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Elkira Court Motel; City: Alice Springs Red Centre Northern Territory; Review: My husband and I stayed here before and after a camping trip in Central Australia. It was the perfect place to stay in Alice Springs: the staff are extremely helpful, the buffet dinner in the resto excellent value and the location central. There's a laundry to wash those dusty desert clothes and luggage minding service. The rooms are spacious with all the inclusions one needs, and then some. Free wifi was appreciated. But what sets this motel apart is the focus on guests: every single staff member we encountered was genuinely helpful. The managers have really *nailed* customer service.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Meros B B; City: Khiva Xorazm Province; Review: I recently spent 3 nights staying at the Meros B & B in Khiva with 4 friends. It was a delightful stay: the guesthouse is made of baked brick, just inside the ancient city walls of Khiva. I cannot speak highly enough of the family who run it - especially Jaloladdin the manager. Nothing was too much trouble. One evening he even arranged that we have dinner on the rooftop - spectacular views of the city. The rooms are simple but immaculately clean. The aircons are new as are the mattresses. Breakfast is delicious - fresh fruit, yoghurt, scrumptious home made jam and omelette. Wifi is free and there's also a coffee machine (extra charge) if you need an espresso. One of our group participated in breadmaking in the tandyr one day. Overall, we found this a relaxing and authentic place to experience Khiva.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lyabi House Hotel; City: Bukhara Bukhara Province; Review: I visit Bukhara at least twice a year and always stay at Lyabi Haus. The location is perfect, the rooms large and decorated in an understated way that is most attractive. Many rooms have bath tubs. The dining room, an original Bukharan merchant's reception room, is breathtaking. Breakfast is generous and varied, coffee is filtered. The staff are outstanding - friendly, helpful with bags and attentive. It is the only place for me in Bukhara.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Rydges Sydney Airport Hotel; City: Mascot Botany Bay Greater Sydney New South Wales; Review: This was my 4th stay at Rydges Sydney Airport. It's the perfect option for an early morning international flight. Excellent reception staff - Nick checked me in and he was outstanding. The rooms are just right - lovely bed linen, comfortable bed, cool bathroom, free wifi. I was loaded with luggage and really appreciated the trolleys available. I think Rydges have "nailed" what customers want with this property. Many thanks,; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: K Komil Bukhara Boutique Hotel; City: Bukhara Bukhara Province; Review: I visit Bukhara regularly and this is my favourite place to stay - brilliant, quiet location in the heart of the old city. Each spacious room has been thoughtfully designed, combining the best traditions of Bukharan applied arts with modern conveniences - the rooms are all different and all beautiful. The 19th century breakfast room is magnificent and the breakfast varied and delicious - I especially recommend the yoghurt. There are also small courtyards where you can breakfast or read. The staff are outstanding - Komil, the owner, has a true eye for detail and is a most gracious host. Indeed all staff demonstrate genuine courtesy and are incredibly helpful. If Bukhara were not such an interesting city, I could easily hang out in Komil all day - in my beautiful room or lounging in a nook.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

It is very solid and heavier that many similar dressers in this price range. It was extremely well packaged and all the parts were clearly labeled, making assembly a breeze. I am almost 9 months pregnant and had the "help" of big sister (who just turned 5) while putting this together, yet it was still fairly quick and straightforward. I was especially happy that the guides for the drawers were pre-attached (that's usually the worst part of "put together" furniture, in my opinion!) Hands down this is the best piece of furniture requiring assembly that I have ever purchased, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a solidly built dresser for a little one. I did use wood glue along the drawer seams, just for added security, as past experience has taught me this is one area that is often an issue, but I really don't think it was even necessary in this case. I expect it will last quite a long time.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Home_and_Kitchen |

Title: Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You To Know About; Author: Visit Amazon's Kevin Trudeau Page; Review: "Natural Cures They Don't Want You to Know About" by Kevin Trudeau is more than a consumer advocacy book. It is a comprehensive review of important but forgotten facts regarding natural health remedies and health maintenance strategies that, quite frankly, bio-tech companies and pharmaceutical companies do not want people to know about. Albeit, Mr. Trudeau's writing style is very much in keeping with that of a Alpha-Type consumer advocate, he does present facts, evidence and logic to not only support the body of this work but also to address how the knowledge presented can be applied very practically in the everyday lives of people who are already responsible as it pertains to the management of their health. At no point in the book does Mr. Trudeau suggest that persons abandon the need for sound medical counsel and advice; in fact, he is a strong proponent of that sector of the medical profession that holds strongly to the Hipocratic Oath as well as professional medical ethics. He does however, and with very good reason, condemn those in the medical and pharmaceutical professions for using their "credentials" and "client trust" to advance their own pocket books with products and services from various bio-tech and pharmaceutical companies, which are not only unfit for consumption by any human being, but frankly, very dangerous and life threatening. Before writing this review I read the review of others who had purchased this book. I was surprised to find that almost all of those persons who rated this book with a 3-star rating or less not only failed to read the entire book but appeared to also be represented of that segment of society that see's nothing wrong with dumping trash on the freeways, eating at fast food restaurants daily and inhaling a pack of Lucky Strips to boot. None of their reviews presented any facts, evidence or logic to refute what Mr. Trudeau has written, let only support the propaganda of the bio-tech and pharmaceutical communities lobbyists. I don't that any of these reviewers even knows what a "lobbyist" is. The Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, or prominently mentioned in this book (as well as other books written by Mr. Trudeau), and with good reason. As Mr. Trudeau states, the FDA's primary role and responsibility is to ensure that products and services available for consumption in the United States meet or exceed the guidelines set by the FDA regarding safety, etc. Unfortunately, and there is plenty of evidence to support this remark, the FDA has horribly failed in its charter and responsibility to protect the public for foods and drugs which are dangerous and provide no immediate or long term health benefits for the consumer or the patient. Having worked at Purdue Pharma, the company that manufacturers Oxy-Contin, I am fully aware of the methods in which drugs are developed, manufactured, tested and distributed. I have seen the effects of this prescription drug as well as other prescription drugs manufactured by other bio-tech and pharma companies. Suffice it to say, the "system" is only as good as; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Catiline Conspiracy (SPQR II); Author: Visit Amazon's John Maddox Roberts Page; Review: "SPQR II: The Catiline Conspiracy", like many of the author's books is a feable, impractical and unrewarding attempt to blend 20th century societal and cultural behavioural characteristics with people from a different era, namely those persons who lived in Rome during the 1st century BC. Regardless of the plot, the author demonstrates his lack of understanding of 1st century Rome: its peoples, politicians and Senators, word for word and line for line. Case in point: the death of any citizen of Rome, regardless of status, was always investigated. Albeit, the investigation standards and methods to determine death were, in large part, unreliable at best, investigations of even street merchants were treated seriously. The ramifications for not taking it seriously was not only due to political scrutiny and favoritism, but was done so in light of the need to be fair and equitable with the distribution of the deceased's property, real estate and estates in accordance with Roman law at that time. It is true that some deaths did go un-investigated; however, whenever a Roman citizen died within the walls of Rome, it was always investigated and it was always noticed...by a lot of people for many different reasons. Another glaring inaccuracy would be the hiding of weapons (of any sort) in the Temple of Saturn. The Temple of Saturn was used as the primary place where the Roman Treasury was kept. It was heavily guarded (for obvious reasons), but was also a spiritual symbol of the city and society. Both officials, guards and priests revered the Temple, and the storage of weapons within the Temple by any faction would have resulted in severe penalties if not consequences. There is no written record that, in fact, at any time were weapons ever stored there. There are rumors of weapons and other supplies being stored there prior to the extensive damage done to the Temple sometime around 378 BC. Another misrepresentation is in the main character himself. If in fact Decius Caecilius Metellus was member of the "aristocracy" as the author suggests, he would not be a sleuth. He would also NOT occupy a "low position". If Decius were a member of the Lutatius clan, holding a "low position" would have meant being expelled or cast out of Rome as a result of conducting himself inappropriately in government, in battle or in duties resulting from a temple assignment. Low assignments did not exist for any member of the "aristocracy"...period, unless the person or persons were mentally or physically unfit. In those instances, they were retired within the estates of their families and had little if any contact with the outside world. Lastly, its just embarrassing for any author to attempt to use and incorporate historical figures and names to add credence and credibility to childish, immature writing. Referencing and incorporating such figures as Gaius Julius Caesar III (aka, Julius Caesar) or the poet Gaius Valerius Catullus (aka, Catullus) is simply to distort and smear the very essence of who those men were in their times, as well as what they accomplished or represented as; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Autobiography of Thomas Jefferson; Author: Visit Amazon's Thomas Jefferson Page; Review: Few autobiographies offer such a candid and vivid view of the mind of the author. In this, Thomas Jefferson's autobiography, there is no doubt as to the authenticity of the man, the revolutionary and the statesman: the virtue, wisdom and strength that is visible as Jefferson describes both the minor and major events and moments in his public life of service where his reliance upon the essence of the early Republic's laws and the spirit of the national consciousness were blended with the author's unique insight as to how to maintain the delicate balance of Federal necessity, states rights and the influence of the foreign powers and their affairs upon the young nation. Unlike the autobiographies of other founding fathers (Adams, Franklin, Hamilton, etc.), whose own accounts are more personal and revealing about themselves as well as judgmental and temperamental about their personal experience with their peers, Jefferson has crafted an autobiography, which is true to form: the form of the man and his beliefs, which influenced national policy without every being advanced to replace it, which served a nation selfishly without requiring anything else in return except for the promise of posterity to "preserve, protect and defend" the liberties achieved and to forever more "admire, relish and respect" the eternal need to defend and uphold, at any cost, both the people and the commonwealth for future generations to behold. I think it funny that today's democratic-socialists have adopted Thomas Jefferson as their "founding father". If anything, this book redeems the reputation and spirit of Jefferson, not as a democrat or democratic-socialist, but as a Republican, dedicated and sworn to instituting a democratic-republican form of government free from the tyranny of dictators and protected from the ill-conceived attempts of men and women from within to manipulate and pervert a form of government conceived as "one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: What Men Want: Three Professional Single Men Reveal to Women What It Takes to Make a Man Yours; Author: Visit Amazon's Bradley Gerstman Page; Review: The lawyer, the CPA and the doctor; all supposed to be "professional": all authority figures who believe themselves to be authorities on what it takes for a woman to make a man her own. NOT. The book is an opinion filled look at the lives of three men who express personal preferences instead of delving into the "heart and soul" of men, and the needs, wants and desires that men intrinsically possess for companionship found in the form of a woman. The authors fail miserably to discuss the cornerstones of male needs through the basic tenents of 1) companionship, 2) friendship, 3) partnership, 4) relationship and 5) statesmenship; the premise of the soul of a man in relation to a woman. But they also fail to adequately, let alone accurately, describe the perceptions of men regarding 1) intimacy, 2) loyalty, 3) passion, 4) romance and 5) trust; these being the basic tenants of a man's heart, and the methods in which women are best suited for achieving singular adoration from the man they come to respect and adore for who he is, what he does and how he lives. But most importantly, they've failed to discuss the importance of "spiritual congruity"; the life force that springs forth, which enables men to grow in every aspect as a result of the introduction of a woman into it. Suffice it to say, if I wanted to right a book about law, shouldn't I be familiar with the subject? Of course. The same holds true for accounting as well as medical science. Gentlemen; this book sucks! Stick to law, accounting and medical science, and do us all a favor: become better at your chosen profession before you even attempt to speak to the matters of the heart and the place that a woman plays in that heart.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: What Women Want: What Every Man Needs to Know About Sex, Romance, Passion, and Pleasure; Author: Laurence Roy Stains; Review: "What Women Want" was written as a guide to help men understand the needs, wants, desires and interaction preferences for the purpose of enabling a man to fulfill the needs, wants and desires of his "significant other". The basic premise is that men fail to understand women and women simply don't understand man. There is no blame or failure attached to the "woman's" role in not understanding men; only blame attached to the men for failure for understanding women. Regardless, as a reader, you are a man or a woman, it isn't a matter of knowing "what women want"; it isn't a matter of fulfilling them at your own expense: rather, it should have been more focused on the literal as well as the figurative stances of both men and women and the need, based upon the impact of current culture and societal norms, to learn how to maintain an equal and respectful understanding of who we truly are as people, and how the hearts, the souls and the spirits of both men and women must rise above the ridicule of political correctness, the cancer that has made sex "hedious", romance "evil", passion "unnecessary" and pleasure a "crime". The author and contibutors fail by merely dealing with personal preferences, and using them to attract those reading the book to view their preferences and their methods for "getting what they want" as the best, if not only way to have their needs satisfied; albeit, a very immature way of looking at things, for most people today, it would appear attractive. The book doesn't stimulate women (or men for that matter) to think for themselves and to get in touch with themselves as the author and contributor implies; it doesn't delve into the origins of sex and its importance at the spiritual, soul and physical level: it provides an inaccurate view of not only romance, but also passion and pleasure. In short, it's horribly written, has no basis in reality regarding logic, discipline or emotion and will do more harm than good if read by people who are driven into relationships for the purpose of getting their needs met, than really, meeting their own.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Raising A Modern-Day Knight by Robert Lewis; Author: ; Review: Having purchased and read this book over ten years ago, it does not surprise me, especially in today's times, that so many people then as well as so many people now continue to be deceived not only by the title, but by the content as well. Written from the perspective of a christian-pagan, the outline, teachings and methods for "raising" a modern day knight have no basis in reality from a number of perspectives, especially by those who are not only familiar with the Latin Rule, but who also apply it daily in their lives. And, this is where my critique of this book will end, and my recommendations and suggestions begin. As a father who has a son or son's, or as a man who one day hopes to have a family, with a loving wife and blessed children, do not sabotage yourself with purchasing this book and subjecting your mind, will and emotions to religious underpinnings that are neither holy, true or in accordance with God. Instead, obtain a copy of the Latin Rule, and as you study it, embrace, and if you so desire, modify it in keeping with the best traditions of the Church...the real Church..the Holy Roman Catholic Church. Do not teach your children to be weak...teach them to be strong...in spirit, soul and body... Do not teach your children to be driven by "purpose", for only things can have purpose...human beings have "life"... Do not teach your children to be tolerant or to simply coexist for the purpose of peace...teach them to be standfast in the truth... Do not teach your sons using this book, otherwise they will never realize their God-given abilities, gifts, skills and talents as men! There is nothing "manly" about this book. The person who wrote it is neither a man nor do I believe he knows God (I am convinced that he doesn't even know the true name of God). Robert Lewis is simply a false prophet, who neither possesses an intellectual or intrinsic understanding of the virtues of antiquity; and without at least that much, he could never be or speak of being a Knight. Only Knights...real Knights...possess what I have described...only real Knights can instruct and raise those who desire to live by the Latin Rule. If you truly want to be a Knight living in the modern age, study the Holy Scriptures (the real Holy Scriptures, not the KJV or other pagan versions)...study the works of Aristotle...learn, understand, believe, embrace and apply the virtues of antiquity, and then you will find yourself well on the way to becoming a man, a modern day Knight.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: At Your Command; Author: Joe Vitale; Review: I find in life that the more filters any person, place, thing or event passes through, the essence of who that person is, what that place represents, how the thing was created and for what purpose that thing enters our life becomes so distorted. So, let me say with a clear conscious and a reborn heart this: Joe Vitale, you're nothing more than an opportunist who took the beauty, majesty and essence of life as it was revealed to Neville Goddard by God himself and distorted it into a treatise for supporting your other works as well as the "Secret", which have no basis in reality. And, although I am grateful to you for at least revealing the name "Neville" in your little life instruction manual, please note that Neville doesn't want you to keep his teachings a secret just so that you can benefit financially from distorting the truth. Neville speaks to more people than just you Joe: remember that! For those of you who are seeking to learn, understand, believe, embrace and apply who you are, what you do and how you live, and to rediscover the truth of who you truly are, what you can truly do and how you can truly live, I beg of you, not only for your own sake, but for the sake of humanity to not only embrace and apply "At Your Command", but all of the other teachings of Neville Goddard, a man whose spirit, soul and body was one with God's, and with whom God chose to share "I AM" with him so that others may live. Most of you are completely unaware that, although the past 150 years has seen tremendous progress in almost every field and endeavor, we have been truly living in a "Dark Age", purposely blinded by nair-do-wells like Joe Vitale and other "leaders" in government, religion, education, business and health sciences. And, we have paid a terrible, terrible price for their cruel, deceitful, sinister and wicked behaviors. We have suffered greatly, all of us, and yet, there is no need to suffer, if only we will embrace "I AM" as who we already are, and more importantly, what we can truly become knowing that we are already one with God! I realize that as human beings we cannot live without basic essentials, such as the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat, the materials we use to clothe ourselves and the places that we construct to shelter ourselves against the elements. Yet, we are more than our physical state, and our soul and most importantly our spirits must be trained, nurtured, educated and applied according to what all of us are, humans born from the divine spirit of "I AM." No matter what your current state in life is, please purchase "At Your Command," and if it takes you the rest of your life to learn, understand, believe, embrace and apply what God through Neville Goddard teaches about who "you are"...if this is the only book you can purchase...PURCHASE THIS BOOK!!! Save yourself,; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Boone: A Biography; Author: Visit Amazon's Robert Morgan Page; Review: Disclaimer: I could only read about 25% of the book. The author does a disservice to Boone when he applies 21st century values and politics to 18th century life. Boone was a product of his times and as such lived his life accordingly. While Boone may be the subject, the content is more the subjective application of today's political and social thinking to early American life. I was particularly struck by one of the author's observations: That the Indians taught the encroaching Europeans folk medicine and hunting techniques. While many of the Europeans were "city folk," many came from the countryside. Surely many of the men who poached on manor lands and the King's land knew how to hunt, the unskilled having been caught, imprisoned, and most likely hung. Various folk remedies were also well known, Indian knowledge simply augmented what was known. That there was a symbiotic relationship between the aborigines and the European is a given; as is the adversarial relationship. The book, while well written, suffers from the author's subjectivity. Boone was a man of the early American frontier and should not be viewed through the prism of 21st Century eyes and values. This book seems to be directed to the "politically correct" reader and not to those seeking an unbiased account of the life of Daniel Boone.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: May on Motors; Author: Visit Amazon's James May Page; Review: I find May's take on life in general to be fascinating. Automobiles and driving are sometimes only incidental to a column. I am still reading this particular book, have read others by May, and keep it on my iPad for reading when things are slow out shooting wildlife. If you are a fan of his wit and intellect on "Top Gear" . . . get this book!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Top Gear Years; Author: Visit Amazon's Jeremy Clarkson Page; Review: Jeremy is usually irreverent in his observations on the "Top Gear" TV show. His writing is about the same only more so. If you enjoy his somewhat skewed vision of life in general, you should read this.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Searchers; Author: Visit Amazon's Alan Le May Page; Review: The book is much different from the movie. So I suggest that you try and not visualize John Wayne as the protagonist. The basic premise was used for the movie but that's about all. It's a thoroughly good read, the writing is visual and well paced.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Galvanized Yankees; Author: Dee Brown; Review: Sometimes repetitive, always interesting. Brown's books are always interesting reads. The Civil War and the settling of the west are subjects of which I consider myself to be very knowledgeable. Brown's books are well researched and usually contain information not found in other books which cover the same subjects.; Rating: 3.0/5.0

Title: The Civil War Generals: Comrades, Peers, Rivals-In Their Own Words; Author: Robert Girardi; Review: This is an interesting read. But, is nothing special or earth shaking. Most of it, in fact, is pretty mundane, the rest ? Just a rehash of well known information. It is nice to so to have so much in one volume. Could be a really interesting read for the someone just starting to explore the Civil War.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: A History of the World in 100 Weapons (General Military); Author: Visit Amazon's Chris McNab Page; Review: Interesting read. I would prefer more information as to the use of the weapons. Very shallow but, it is interesting.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Birth of the Bakersfield Sound; Author: Lawton Jiles; Review: If you enjoy the "Buckersfield" sound, read this book. I've met some of the persons mentioned in the book and enjoyed reading the stories I had heard before.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Popular Photography Genres and Camera Settings (Finely Focused Photography Books) (Volume 7); Author: Visit Amazon's Al Judge Page; Review: Very and overly simplistic.

Title: On Another Man's Wound; Author: Visit Amazon's Ernie O'Malley Page; Review: A interesting personal account. A tale told by one who was in it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Dogged Victims of Inexorable Fate: A Love-Hate Celebration of Golfers and Their Game (Fireside Sports Classic); Author: Visit Amazon's Dan Jenkins Page; Review: Nothing special. Just some of Jenkins' writings, some a little more fleshed out from the first publication.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Lin McLean; Author: Visit Amazon's Owen Wister Page; Review: Wister knows how to spin a yarn.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Chili Dawgs Always Bark at Night; Author: Visit Amazon's Lewis Grizzard Page; Review: A collection of Grizzard columns. Many hilarious, some poignant, all eminently readable. He writes of life as he sees it, with cutting wit, tremendous insight and sometimes a melloncholy which will choke the reader up . A true wordsmith with a zest for life. He left this world way too soon.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Company Commander; Author: Charles B. Macdonald; Review: MacDonald has written a simple book about a tumultuous time in his life. He writes starkly and minimal window dressing.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: English History Made Brief, Irreverent, and Pleasurable; Author: Visit Amazon's Lacey Baldwin Smith Page; Review: When reading a bit of the book for a possible purchase I run into "Juno, Alaska." Juno? The capital of Alaska is Juneau. Obviously the fact checking or editing of this tiny tome was superficial or non-existent. I'll pass.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Shakespeare: The World as Stage (Eminent Lives Series); Author: Visit Amazon's Bill Bryson Page; Review: Very entertaining, eminently readable.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Autobiography of a Seaman; Author: Admiral Lord Cochrane; Review: Well written autobiography. Primarily a defense of his career and really only of interest to those interested in Lord Cochrane and his trials, tribulations and successes.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates: The Forgotten War That Changed American History; Author: Visit Amazon's Brian Kilmeade Page; Review: Very well presented with some new, to me, information.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Three Stones Make a Wall: The Story of Archaeology; Author: Visit Amazon's Eric H. Cline Page; Review: I found it fascinating as I've always had an interest in this science. Well written and is not particularly challenging for those of us without a science background.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Strange and Obscure Stories of the Revolutionary War; Author: Visit Amazon's Tim Rowland Page; Review: Unless you are a recent product of the US educational system, you will find little that is new. Two more words were required.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Three Days in January CD: Dwight Eisenhower's Final Mission; Author: Visit Amazon's Bret Baier Page; Review: A book with fascinating insight. Well written. It helps to understand Kennedy's preoccupation (fascination?) with using the military.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Strange and Obscure Stories of the Civil War; Author: Visit Amazon's Tim Rowland Page; Review: If you are new to the Civil War this book will be interesting. I've been studying the history for fifty plus years. I refreshed my mind a bit but, found nothing new in the book.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Eisenhower's Armies: The American-British Alliance during World War II; Author: Visit Amazon's Niall Barr Page; Review: Want to know how the two main armies were amalgamated? Read this study. Fascinating. Absolutely fascinating.,; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Grand Tour Guide to the World; Author: Visit Amazon's Jeremy Clarkson Page; Review: Not really a book for Kindle reading,.as there are many graphics which do not translate well to the small screen. A light read without the any of the humor of the presenters. I was disappointed for the most part.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: A Man and His Presidents: The Political Odyssey of William F. Buckley Jr.; Author: Visit Amazon's Alvin S. Felzenberg Page; Review: Caveat: I've been a Buckley fan most of my life. Hardly a paean to Buckley. The reader can enjoy as Buckley morphs from full-on arch-conservative to a more pragmatic America protector. His interactions and connections with the various presidents facilitates continuity of the book which provides, I think, some new insights into Buckley and his beliefs. I found it fascinating.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Catcher In The Wry; Author: Visit Amazon's Bob Uecker Page; Review: Out of print and worth the cost if you are a fan of "Mr. Baseball." The self-deprecating Mr. Uecker writes with great style, keeping the reader's interest. Great humor! A very funny man's career in baseball laid bare, written with obvious love for the game.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Cattle Kingdom: The Hidden History of the Cowboy West; Author: Visit Amazon's Christopher Knowlton Page; Review: A hard read at times as the writer sometimes loses focus and strays into areas that'll make the reader scratch his head. If the Montana range wars are of interest, it's worth the struggle. If you've heard of "Teddy Blue," this book puts the coda to his fascinating life.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Air War in the Pacific: The Journal of General George Kenney, Commander of the Fifth U.S. Air Force; Author: Visit Amazon's George C Kenney Page; Review: A well written book by a man who was a leader in the use of the air arm in WWII. McArthur recognized his brilliance early on and came to rely heavily on his advice. While a self-effacing autobiography, always recognizing the contributions of subordinates and others, Gen. Kenny's brilliance is not hidden. I particularly enjoyed his manner of handling subordinates, mostly just boys, who would bend, break and stretch the rules in the interest of getting at and killing the enemy. I heartily recommend this book to any and all students of the use of air forces. Any person with an interest in the war as it was conducted in the Pacific should also read this book.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Eisenhower: Becoming the Leader of the Free World; Author: Visit Amazon's Louis Galambos Page; Review: If you are knowledgeable about Eisenhower, it is a waste of time. I discerned nothing new in the volume. If, however, you are new to the subject this is a great read.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Hinge Factor: How Chance and Stupidity Have Changed History; Author: Visit Amazon's Erik Durschmied Page; Review: An odd little book, very superficial but, chockfull of adjectives. Seriously, it is a very subjective and superficial analysis of certain historical events, mostly battles, large and small, for which the author determines the critical event which caused the ensuing result. I found it interesting and argued with the author's analysis and conclusion in more chapters than not. Worth the read if you wish to carry on a running mental debate with the author. Only then would you, in my opinion, find that it holds your interest.; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: INTERCONTINENTAL Bali Resort; City: Jimbaran South Kuta Bali; Review: Our one week stay at the Intercontinental Jimbaran was a wonderful experience. From check-in to check-out the staff was very professional, genuinely welcoming, and very happy to make every effort to make our vacation special. The hotel is a true haven from the hustle and bustle of the tourist areas of Bali. The gardens are beautifully kept, never was it crowded in the pool and beach areas, plenty of lounge chairs and service. We did not use the spa facilities but they were impressive as were the choices that were offered. The room was quite comfortable , really spacious, and very clean. We loved the outdoor restaurant near the pool for its romantic ambiance and the excellent service. Its location is a bit out of the way of the nightlife of Kuta, however, if that is where you want to go, a taxi will take you there for about $8.-. I would recommend hiring a car with a Balinese driver for a few days (about $40.- per day). It will greatly enhance your experience of Bali. Ask to be taken to less touristy areas. Our driver (Heru, Phone from hotel 081805303983, also e-mail: [email protected]) was great: a well-informed, English speaking guide, safe driver, friendly person, and no effort was too much. This resort is one of the best we ever experienced.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Van der Valk Hotel De Bilt Utrecht; City: De Bilt; Review: We stay regularly at his property when visiting from Hawaii because of its proximity to our family. The hotel is located a few miles outside of Utrecht near the small town of De Bilt. Shops at a walking distance of 1/2 - 1 mile, nice walk too. Average price is 80-100 Euros for 2, including breakfast. Larger family rooms are available and not much more expensive. Check out their specials: they may well include dinner for only a few euros more! Check-in is casual and friendly, sometimes a short wait. Parking is free and plentiful, a rare commodity in this area. Mid size, clean, indoor pool The rooms are fairly large, clean and quiet. As in many European hotels, the "king bed" consists of two twins put together. Black out curtains. Not much closet space. Large bathrooms, basic but clean, most with bath and separate shower.Ask for a room on 2nd floor at the back of the hotel: quiet. Plentiful breakfast. Restaurant is ok, usually very busy on weekends. Nice big outdoor restaurant in summer. All in all: decent , affordable place to stay, also with kids, right in the center of Holland.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Cleveland Airport Marriott; City: Cleveland Ohio; Review: Check in was courteous, easy and pleasant. Concierge lounge hostess was very nice and helpful. Shuttle bus driver remarked that airline personnel was his main concern??! A clean bed on the concierge floor, however, apparently was too much to ask for at this hotel. Hotel management should realize that this is the least a guest should be able to count on! Concerned about the bed bug plague, I routinely check the beds in hotels. This time, I discovered small blood spots and requested to be moved. The frontdesk manager handled the request professionally and gave us another room. Upon inspection of this second room, the mattress pad showed two enormous urine stains (covering about one third of the bed). I asked the same manager to inspect the disgusting bedlinen. By now it was 10PM and we had hardly 6 hours before having to leave for the airport. We were moved again and were promised some Marriott Rewards points. Needless to say that these didn't make up for a gross experience. After contacting the general manager, he just answered that he was sorry the hotel didn't meet our expectations. Upon my follow up e-mail, I have not yet received an answer.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Courtyard by Marriott Miami Airport; City: Miami Florida; Review: Airport shuttle arrived within minutes of our call. Driver very helpful with heavy luggage. Courtyard, Marriott, and Residence Inn all share the same campus. Easy to find coming from the North. It was very busy, yet all guests were welcomed and checked into their rooms quickly: as more guests arrived, just more front desk employees kept showing up! I was impressed. As a platinum member, I received exceptional service and courtesy. Room and bathroom were very clean, the hotel looked like a newer property. No noise from outside or from the hallway. Check out was fast and friendly. All in all very pleasant stay in a nice property with a very well-trained and caring staff!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Marriott s Crystal Shores; City: Marco Island Florida; Review: This does not look like other, nicer, Marriott Vacation Clubs. Location on the beach. The entrance is not grandiose... more like a trailer that has a temporary function. Only one - friendly - lady present there to check us in, and she also had to take our luggage up to our rooms. Access to the elevators, especially with luggage, is cumbersome: through various gates and past the pool. We stayed in a 2 bedroom/2 baths with friends. One of the good things was the very spacious lanai overlooking the Gulf. The unit itself looked like an older one spruced up a bit. Very low ceilings, very low countertops in the bathrooms, not like other MVCs at all. Rooms were clean, beds were good. Kitchen was well-equiped. It was very quiet due to the off-season so there wasn't a whole lot to do. The restaurant was closed on the day that we wanted to have dinner: bad weather. Beautiful, clean beach with lounge chairs for which normally a fee is charged, though not on the days we were there. Access from the hotel via a boardwalk with 2 gates. All in all, good for a few days of peace and quiet. I would not like to stay for an extended period but that is personal.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Van der Valk Hotel Houten Utrecht; City: Houten; Review: We stayed at this hotel for 4 weeks this summer, and then again this past month for a week. It is one of the newer hotels of the Van der Valk chain, and certainly a big improvement over the older Van der Valk hotels. Parking: free and plenty of it. Check-in: quick, no problems even with my early arrival. No bell service, but there are luggage carts. I am sure though someone of the staff will help you if you ask. It is that kind of place. Staff: I have nothing but good words for them! Great personal service, very accommodating; if it is within their power to please the guest, they will. Example: When my elderly mother arrived early one day to have breakfast with us, the front desk staff made sure she was seated comfortably while waiting, and served her coffee with cake on the house. I think this is exceptional. The rooms: well designed, the beds are the best I have come across in hotels, rooms are clean, plenty of storage space for your clothes, modern furniture, flatscreen TV, and the bathrooms are very large with separate bath and shower. Location: on the edge of Houten, a small town near Utrecht with an authentic old center (a few nice restaurants there) as well as a larger shopping area in the newer section of town. Bus stop in front of the hotel. Easy access to A27. Houten has its own railway station with ample parking in the garage of the adjacent shopping center. It is about 10 minutes by train to the center of Utrecht, an old city certainly worth of a visit. Utrecht Central Station is a main hub for trains to every corner of the Netherlands. Restaurant: breakfast is fantastic, so many choices and a chef on the spot. Lunch and dinner: decent quality and reasonable prices. Make sure to order "bitterballen" with your cockails! The place is big, and can be rather crowded in the weekends. Staff is efficient, pleasant, and great with children. My grandkids, 2, 3, and 5 years old, love to come for dinner there; the kids menu comes with crayons, a picture to color, and an animal cup to take home. There is no pool, and no exercise room, however, since the hotel is at the edge of town it is easy to go for a run. Internet included in the room price. I will return!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Cleveland Marriott East; City: Warrensville Heights Ohio; Review: Stayed 4 nights on executive floor while visiting friends. Check in fast and welcoming. Room looked nice, however, upon further inspection, I found lots of dust behind bedside table, and a disgusting mattress pad (shall spare you the details). After a call to guest services, manager and housekeeping arrived in minutes. Clean sheets and pad solved the problem, apologies accepted, night was comped. Next day the room was properly vacuumed. Bad start, rest of visit no problems, pleasant stay. Restaurant: nice environment, friendly staff. Breakfast: standard Marriott issue, frequently replenished, eggs made to order. In walking distance various restaurants and some big shops like DSW, B,B&B etc. Easy access to I-271. I gave a three star rating due to the bedding problem. Clean bedding is the #1 requirement for a good night's sleep, which is why I stay in a hotel in the first place. Had it not been for that, the hotel surely qualifies for a four star rating. The staff is wonderful, and their guest response is immediate, effective, professional, and comes with a smile. I will come back, and hope the housekeeping issues will be resolved.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Gruener Baum; City: Wurzburg Lower Franconia Franconia Bavaria; Review: Arrival: had to park opposite hotel to unload and then roll the suitcases across a busy street to hotel. Location: easy walk to the city. Check-in: very friendly. As room was not ready upon our very early arrival, we were offered breakfast, which was much appreciated. Lugging the suitcases up the stairs was a problem, but the owner who checked us in did her best to assist. Room: sparkling clean, modern, good beds but rather small and stuffy. Bathroom small, very clean and functional. No air conditioning, which was really uncomfortable since it was an unusual 92F. Breakfast: served in beautiful old cellar, great coffee, enough variety, however, when we had breakfast around 9am, juice, yoghurt, meats were not cold. I would suggest since there is no A/C that food be kept on ice. Would I recommend this hotel? Probably not for older people, people traveling with heavy luggage, or those who are used to AC on hot summer days.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Budapest Marriott Hotel; City: Budapest Central Hungary; Review: We stayed here at a very reasonable pre-paid rate that included breakfast. Check-in was efficient and friendly. The upgrade to the business floor was much appreciated. The comfortable club lounge with view of the Danube was open all weekend. Nice wines etc. were complimentary, and a lovely buffet was laid out every evening. A great feature, certainly when compared to the average club lounge in he U.S. The location is in the middle of the old city of Pest; couldn't be better. The room was a typical Marriott room, very clean. I've had better beds, however, a renovation is taking place so, hopefully, the plan includes new mattresses. The main restaurant, Peppers, is outstanding, and really worth a visit. The wait staff is well-trained, and not only that, but they really take pride in their jobs. They go out of their way to make sure you have a great time. Our dinner there was one of the best we had in Budapest, and the rack of lamb was the best ever. Even at the very busy breakfast, our waiter remembered that we preferred cappucino: we didn't even have to ask after the first day. The breakfast buffet is replenished regularly, even shortly before closing. In short, we had a very, very pleasant stay there, and we'd love to come back. Our compliments to the whole staff!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Van der Valk Hotel De Bilt Utrecht; City: De Bilt; Review: Since my first review of this property in 2007, we have spent many enjoyable weeks at this property over the years. The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff have not changed: they will do whatever they can to make their guests happy. The prices are reasonable, and they still offer a great breakfast buffet for half the price that other hotels charge. The fairly recent refurbishment has given the rooms a fresh new look, more closet space, free wifi, and a rain shower. The restaurant's menu has been upgraded with more exciting choices such as game in season etc. All the rest is pretty much as it was: great beds, room darkening drapes, very clean rooms, and a caring staff. We keep coming back here year after year.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Courtyard Fort Myers at I 75 and Gulf Coast Town Center; City: Fort Myers Florida; Review: After traveling 30 hours, we arrived at the RSW airport in the middle of the night, and due to illness were unable to drive home. Help was a phone call away: a room was available and the hotel shuttle was sent to the airport to pick us up. I was touched by the caring manner of the driver, Luis, who so kindly helped settle my husband in the van, and then loaded the luggage. A great guy whose help was so much appreciated especially in this situation. At the front desk we were assisted friendly, quickly, and efficiently. Luis again took care of the luggage, and in a very short time we were comfortably settled in our room. The room, #230, was immaculate. Nice all white bed linens, fantastic mattress, great pillows (first time I didn't have to use my own...), nice, big!, and very clean bathroom, effectively darkened room. Altogether, we could not have chosen a better place. Our compliments to the manager and the whole staff! We'll be back! On a previous occasion, we had a similarly good experience. At that time we were also able to take advantage of the great location amidst plenty of shopping and dining places.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Becquer; City: Seville Province of Seville Andalucia; Review: This hotel is within walking distance of many sights, restaurants, sigtseeing hop-on hop-off bus etc. Check-in was efficient. Garage under hotel, very tight space so have to leave the car keys with very friendly assistant. We had room #523, which was quiet, but small and not very practical: you have to squeeze past the beds in order to get to the closet behind the beds. The closet is too undeep to fit normal size clothes hangers so doors get stuck all the time. After two days, this gets annoying. The rooms, bathroom, and the whole property were extremely clean and well-maintained. The beds and pillows are comfortable. In-room coffee and tea facilities. There were black-out curtains, however, they didn't fully close, left about 5 inch gap. Every day you get only three tissues.. Mini bar at reasonable prices. It was nice that an umbrella was provided when it rained one evening. This hotel serves a nice breakfast, however, no other meals are available. We did not mind since one can reach so many nice restaurants in 10-15 minutes, walking. All in all, good place to spend a few days, however, if you are looking for something special with full service go elsewhere. .; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Marriott s Playa Andaluza; City: Estepona Costa del Sol Province of Malaga Andalucia; Review: We were pleasantly surprised that, upon our arrival, the assistant manager acknowledged the special reason for this trip and welcomed us with champagne. He even sent us a picture which we received after we came home! The three two-bedroom units we had rented at the Playa Andaluza for our family of 12 proved to be a perfect choice. Not only did we feel very welcome, the staff went out of their way to meet our requests, one of them being our wish to have the three suites in the same building. The 2Bed/2Bath units are great: very spacious, clean and well-equipped. Good beds, daily cleaning service. The grounds are beautiful, and, despite the size of the resort, it feels very cosy because of the way the buildings are set up. When the (young) grandkids occasionally had had enough of pool and playground, there was plenty to do under the enthusiastic guidance of the staff. They really encouraged the kids to participate. One day, there was a very interesting bird show. We all loved seeing the birds of prey from up close. Another day, the restaurant hosted a Flamenco show, yes, very touristy but still fun. The restaurant on property is decent, not great, with nice choices, and very convenient especially with small kids; again a very nice staff. One can also use the BBQs and picnic tables, which we did twice to the enjoyment of the kids. I did not particularly like the beach. The sand is dark and hot; we found many cigarette butts when the kids were building their sandcastles, and were regularly addressed by vendors trying to sell their stuff. The property is well-protected: access from the beach with room key only. We all had a wonderful vacation here, and would love to come back.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sofitel Luxembourg Europe; City: Luxembourg City; Review: Sofitel Europa, Luxembourg. Check-in: pleasant, welcoming, efficient, friendly, helpful. Room: large, well-furnished, great beds, black-out curtains, large bathroom, good lighting, very clean and comfortable, coffee and tea in room. Due to double doors between hallway and room, and contrary to earlier complaints, absolutely no noise from atrium! Ample closet space with 2 large closets and a chest of drawers. Wifi works well. The staff has had excellent training, and we were pleasantly surprised by the genuine interest each and everyone took in our well-being. Location: 1 1/2 miles outside the city in business area. Advantage: easy to reach, easy to park, quiet and modern. A city bus frequently stops 200 yards from the hotel and takes you right into the city center for €2.- in about 7 minutes. The hotel is an great choice when attending performances at the Philharmony: just across the road, it can be reached in an easy 5 minute walk. The housekeeping staff is excellent. Any request for service is answered within a few minutes. My only suggestion for improvement: it would be nice if some bites were offered in the bar/lounge area before regular dinner hours (7pm) for guests who attend concerts at the Philharmony. Now, only a limited room service menu is available. The gym is fairly small, however, when we were there (Mon-Fri) it was never crowded. We had a wonderful stay here, and would certainly return when returning to the area.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sheraton Brussels Airport Hotel; City: Zaventem Flemish Brabant Province; Review: Hotel is located directly across from arrival/ departure hall. Very convenient for a quick rest during a lay-over, or before an early flight. Compared to the Amsterdam airport Sheraton, it is definitely a class lower in staff performance, overall appearance, and business lounge experience. Then again: the overnight rate here is considerably lower. Check-in at SPG guest desk was done by inexperienced intern without supervision. He didn't have much to say, and the room key did not work in the business lounge. It would seem that he didn't get much training before being put in this position; difficult for him and just a little unpleasant for arriving guests. The rooms are clean and quiet, the beds are fantastic, black-out curtains, everything works, and the location for travelers cannot be better. We have used this hotel on several occasions, and yes, we will do so again when in the area.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Van der Valk Hotel Zwolle; City: Zwolle Overijssel Province; Review: Our family, 8 adults and 4 small kids, were looking for a hotel with family rooms and A/C within reach of Giethoorn and ended up in Hotel Zwolle. This turned out to be an excellent choice. Modern well-run hotel where the staff, without exception!, does everything to make guests feel welcome. Rooms and bathrooms are large and very clean. Small refrigerator provided. In-room coffee/tea facilities. We decided to do the 'live cooking' dinner rather than have dinner in the regular dining room. Big hit with the children due to the supervised cooking table where kids can prepare their own food. They even get to take their baked cookies home in a litlle container. Not only the kids have a feast, the adults have plenty of choices too. From sushi to tenderloin, from fish to fresh salads, grilled and wokked foods, all prepared right there and then. The breakfast buffet has many choices, good coffe and freshly pressed real orange juice. After check-out, it was a quick half hour to Giethoorn where we spent a lovely afternoon. I would certainly return to this hotel when in the area.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Tambo del Inka a Luxury Collection Resort Spa Valle Sagrado; City: Urubamba Sacred Valley Cusc; Review: This is a very nice, modern hotel on beautiful grounds in the right spot for acclimatizing to the altitude, and a great point of departure for the trip to Machu picchu. The hotel and grounds show that it is very well maintained. Urubamba is a small town with a few nice little restaurants. We had arranged for pick up at the Cusco airport ( 5:30 AM) by the hotel limo. Someone was waiting for us in the arrival hall so we didn't have to lug our own suitcases. Once seated in the car, the driver suggested we'd stop in Chinchero for a brief visit to a weavery since our rooms would not be ready at such an early hour. We enjoyed the visit despite our sleepless night! Very good driver! At the hotel we were welcomed with coca tea served in the lounge/lobby area. We were comfortable there despite the fairly long procedure to get us checked in. All three rooms were upgraded, which was nice. The hotel has its own train station for departure to Aquas Caliente, from where one takes a shuttle to Machu Picchu. One of the staff members accompanied us to the station, and what was even nicer and totally unexpected: one of the staff was meeting us at the train station when we arrived back in the evening. Location: close to a few restaurants, and the bus station where one can also find the collectivos. These are shared taxis. We hired one for a full day to Pisac just for the 5 of us for 150 PEN or about $50.-. Great alternative to the tourist buses. The staff throughout the hotel was very pleasant and courteous. The rooms are large, comfortable and clean. Nice bathroom. There is some room for improvement, though: The check-in process needs to be more efficient. Although there is tea and coffee in the lobby, I would have preferred a coffee maker in my room. The showerhead in our bathroom was loose, and in order for it to stay in position and function, I squeezed a shampoo bottle in between wall and showerhead. Never repaired during the 5 days we were there despite my mentioning it twice. A 'special ammenity' was promised due to a 45th wedding anniversary. This never happened. The service in the bar during a casual dinner there was slow, and dishes for our table were not served at same time. In fact, one of us received her dinner when all of us had finished. Despite the above, we still had a pleasant stay largely due to the very friendly and helpful staff. Some of them just need to be trained a little more.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Van der Valk Hotel Middelburg; City: Middelburg Zeeland Province; Review: Stayed here for a weekend with our (grand)children. Location: fairly close to highway (NO noise) just outside of Middelburg, bus to town and beach stops right in front of hotel. This is a very modern, airconditioned hotel with clean, spacious rooms. Even with 3 beds there is ample room to move about. Beds are great. As in many European hotels, a 'king bed' consists of 2 XL single beds. Sound insulation excellent. Large bathroom with sparkling clean bath tub, and separate walk-in shower. Separate toilet. Large closet, coffee and tea in room. Dark curtains, though not black-out. We had 4 kids, ranging from 5-10 years old and they had a ball in the very large, safe, wonderful playground with lots of fun stuff. We watched them from the outside restaurant while enjoying a glass of wine. Arrival: efficient, friendly check-in. No bell service, easily accesssible though. The 'live cooking' was a bit disappointing. Quality of food was just ok. Long lines in front of the cooking stations. Clearly, the staff was not prepared for such a crowd. Wait staff was nice. Fairly expensive for kids: €20.- for a 5-year old who ate a plate of fries, a tablespoon of salmon and a small icecream... I would not repeat. Had a similar dinner at the van der Valk hotel in Zwolle, which was excellent. Breakfast in the downstairs restaurant was very good. In short: great hotel, not so great restaurant experience.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Four Points by Sheraton Edmundston; City: Edmundston New Brunswick; Review: Location: easily reached from Transcanadienne. Connected to small shopping center with drugstore. Ample, free parking. Arrival: No bell service but can use luggage carts. Frontdesk friendly, check-in efficient. Gold status: room upgrade, 2 free drinks. Room: quite large, clean, with comfortable bed, white linens. Coffee maker and refrigerator. Quiet A/C. Complimentary bottles of water. Plenty of storage: large desk with 8 large drawers; also closet for clothes on hangers. Good lighting. Black-out curtains. Large flat TV. Clean bathroom with tub shower. No individual amenities other than lotion and shower cap but large refillable containers with shampoo etc. Restaurant next to lobby, friendly staff, variety of reasonably priced food, food ok, not a fine dining experience. I guess Edmundston itself is not a tourist destination, but we spent a pleasant enough, quiet night here en route from Halifax to Montréal.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Holiday Inn Buenos Aires Ezeiza Airport; City: Ciudad Evita Province of Buenos Aires Central; Review: Location: close enough to airport (EZE). Traffic can be a disaster in BA, so we stayed at this hotel the night before early flight. Nicer than the average Holiday Inn in the USA. Check-in was friendly, rather slow though. Hallways were a bit dark. Room and bathroom were nice, comfortable and very clean. Comfortable bed. The hotel has a nice restaurant, fully booked though as it was Valentine's day. We used the coffee shop which was rather noisy. Food ok. Breakfast next morning in same room was quite nice. I did not like the fact that the shuttle runs only once per hour. Have to book it too. Upon check-out a bit of confusion: I had prepaid the stay and the room was charged again. Problem solved when I showed my copy of the reservation.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Park Tower a Luxury Collection Hotel Buenos Aires; City: Buenos Aires Capital Federal District; Review: Whether you arrive early or depart on a late flight, the hotel will do what they can to accommodate you. We were able to check in at 10 am, and check out at 5pm. After check-out, we waited comfortably for our limo in the beautiful lounge where between 5 and 7 pm complimentary tea, coffee, and pastries, or wine and snacks are served. Arrival went very smoothly: driver waited for us at the cruise port, bellman took care of luggage, check-in by very friendly, professional staff while seated at desk. Location: connected to Sheraton, on busy street. No noise in room though. Just a 5 minute walk to tourist info, pedestrian shopping area (Florida Street), hop-on-hop-off bus (do NOT recommend bus due to very long waiting times, not 20 min intervals that are advertised). Room: nice and lots of space. Well furnished, not modern but well-suited to the style of the hotel. Plenty lamps. Great bed. Comfortable chairs. A fruit basket and bottled water were waiting for us. Our room had an espresso machine, our friends' rooms did not. Great plus: butler available 24 hrs/day who will bring coffee etc. to your room upon request. Very nice bathroom with separate stall for toilet/bidet, separate (rain)shower stall, bath and double sinks. Very clean. We had a great dinner with friends at the restaurant, where the service was superb! We truly felt pampered from beginning to end. Breakfast is plentiful and very good. Served until 11am. We liked the complimentary, daily tea/cocktail hour (5-7pm) in the lounge; it fills the space between lunch and the late dining hour ;-) Concierge, very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful, gave us good information. A few remarks: housekeeping dropped a stitch here and there. I found a used, folded towel in the bathroom which took 4 hours and a call to the butler to be removed; coffee capsules were not replaced; knife and fork were removed after first day so could not peel the fruit etc. Although these are minor glitches, it is the attention to detail that distinguishes a 5 star from a 4 star hotel. However, if I could, I would give this hotel a 4.5 rating overall. We had a very pleasant stay and would certainly return. Tip: if you don't like the touristy tango shows, go to the cultural center at the top floor of the Galleria Pacifica (10 minute walk from hotel). We watched a wonderful 1 1/2 hr tango show there (400 pesos) in a small theater. 8 pm, Fridays and Saturdays only, I think.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Marriott s Crystal Shores; City: Marco Island Florida; Review: Arrival: confusing due to massive construction on property. Check-in friendly and prompt. Bell service took quite a while: no carts available at main entrance. Garage confusing. Not clear how to get to old tower where our unit was located. Going from our unit to lobby required a trek down one elevator, past the pools, through a construction zone, up some stairs, through the parking garage, via outside ramp to lobby because elevator exits to crucial floors were blocked due to construction. No signs. Location on beautiful, wide beach. Unit: good Marriott standard, clean. Large balcony with view of large container with waste. The noise of the A/C was very loud, and woke us up several times each night. We experienced a power outage, a water boiling warning, (bottled water was brought to unit), slow service pool side despite hefty prices. Many lounge chairs were 'reserved' for hours, towels being the only occupants. No one monitored this situation. There ís a 45-minute rule, but nobody cares. Upon check-out it appeared impossible to get a print-out of our expenses. Clearly this place should be avoided for the next year or so until construction is finished, personnel is properly trained, and this Marriott gets its act together, Not happy!; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Van Oranje Autograph Collection; City: Noordwijk South Holland Province; Review: Stay was with kids and grandkids to celebrate birthday. Location: excellent, on the beach with many restaurants and main shopping area close by. Arrival: easy to find, immediate help with our luggage, open-air safe parking lot behind hotel. Lobby: nice and roomy. Many dogs around though and not only in the lobby: I encountered a lady with 3 dogs upstairs when I walked out of our room. I love dogs, but not the idea that my bed, pillows etc may have been used by dogs. Check-in was very friendly, The only check-in person also doubled as concierge, which made for a little wait, however, we felt very welcome. Room: we had 4 rooms, all of them with connecting doors, and a raised platform with 2 comfortable chairs. Sound insulation is very good between rooms and from hall-way to room. Space between bed and closet was very narrow, which we found a bit annoying after 2 days. Black-out curtains, excellent lighting in bathroom. The only power outlets in the room are on the side of the bedside tables. The one near the closet could not even be reached/used due to the earlier mentioned small space between bed and closet. The peep hole in our room @ 5'8" height was too high. Fruit and 2 bottles of complimentary water were provided. Bed could have been better: 2 singles pushed together with toppers that did not fit the mattresses, shifting easily. The sheets were too small and did not fully cover the mattress. Everything was clean. The closet had only 1 hanger for a skirt or pants, and 4 hangers for shirts. Bathroom was nice and clean, small but with a very efficient lay-out. No coffee maker in room. No shower cap provided. We used both the Radka and the Grand Cafe restaurants. Radka has a lovely breakfast buffet with real, pressed oranges and lots of choices. Again, kind and friendly staff, also for the kids, however, the Grand Cafe staff could be somewhat better organized. We had to ask 3 times before the prosecco arrived, meals were not served simultaneously, we finally gave up on the requested ice cubes, and were presented with the wrong check. Altogether, there are too many things that need improvement before I would consider this a 5 star hotel. We still enjoyed our stay due to the friendly staff. .; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Prague Marriott Hotel; City: Prague Bohemia; Review: We had a wonderful stay at the Prague Marriott. Location: 5 minute walk to the center of town, all the sights within easy walking distance. Bell service ready for us with a smile upon arrival. Very helpful. Parking right next door @560o CZK per 24 hours. Front desk staff friendly and efficient. Received upgrades for gold and platinum members in our family. We purchased an upgrade for the third room @580 CZK, certainly worth the extra charge because it included breakfast, drinks, and an appetizer buffet that can easily serve as a light dinner. Large and comfortable concierge lounge on 2 floors. The rooms were comfortable, quiet, and very clean. Efficient lay-out. Coffee/tea in room. Safe and small refrigerator provided. Large lobby where you'll find the wonderful, very knowledgeable concierge, as well as a desk for Viking cruises. Yes, cruise groups use this hotel, however, we only noticed them in the lobby. The very capable and friendly staff could easily handle all guests in the breakfast room. (Excellent breakfast!) The only somewhat less favorable remark would concern the 'at your service' slow response. Other than that, wonderful experience! Can certainly recommend.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Kasteel Bloemendal; City: Vaals Limburg Province; Review: Location: Close to the point where Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands meet. This is a nice castle transformed into a hotel. Large grounds, nice for a walk. We felt very welcome when we checked in. Room was large, very clean. Large bathroom with good lighting. We enjoyed a few drinks and appetizers on the beautiful outdoor terrace. Free parking. Wonderful restaurant: delicious, well-prepared dishes, great service. This hotel deserves a 5 star review. Just a few minor things: I would like to see a full length mirror somewhere in the room. Door key malfunctioned twice. Praise for the honesty and the extra care of the staff: I left my e-reader, was called by the manager, e-reader was forwarded to my next destination. Thank you so much! Tip: check for special packages including half board, great deals!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Centrale Tirano; City: Tirano Province of Sondrio Lombardy; Review: Location: 15 minute walk from train station, however, due to cobblestones difficult with roll aboard. Without luggage it is a nice walk into town for dinner at night. Friendly welcome at front desk. Elevator and A/C in building. Internet and a nice breakfast were included in our rate. The room had clean comfortable beds. A safe was in the room. Bathroom was clean. Room was large enough. Having said that, there were no black out curtains, I found stains on chair, broken glass top on desk, only transparent curtain in bathroom window, bedside lamps shine right into your face, caulking around bathtub all cracked. While it was OK for the price and for a night, it really is not a 4star hotel.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: InterContinental Tahiti Resort Spa; City: Faa a Tahiti Society Islands; Review: I had this notion of staying at a romantic hotel in Tahiti... Upon our arrival long lines of cruise passengers checking in. We arrived at 10 am. Even though check-in is officially not until 3 pm, thankfully we were given a room half an hour later. The grounds are beautiful, nice for a walk after dinner. Bell service is excellent. The view from the room, lagoon view, was beautiful, however, the room itself was a disaster. It seemed our room was the next one due for an overhaul. The bathroom would have shamed a run-down motel. Changed rooms the next day. This was certainly an improvement. Large room, clean bathroom, nice amenities, good bed, safe, nice balcony. Water heater, instant coffee, tea, bottled water in room. Clean wood floor, and island style furniture. The staff is nice, however, I heard the terms 'cannot' and 'not possible' once too often. Perhaps I am too used to the American approach, where, in a 5 star resort, the staff usually do their utmost to please the guest. Even though a platinum ambassador, I had to pay for a late check-out. All in all, the hotel seriously needs to remodel certain rooms. The one we had the first night, was totally unacceptable, certainly considering the room rate. Also, the hordes of cruise people spending just the day there until their flight home departs late at night do not contribute to the romantic atmosphere we expected. I would not return here. The 4 star review is due to the beautiful grounds, the excellent, though rather pricey, restaurant, and the early check-in.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Cleveland Airport Marriott; City: Cleveland Ohio; Review: We arrived after midnight, and were really happy that the shuttle was there within 2 minutes. Check-in was okay until I asked if a platinum upgrade was available: “No, this is what you have” was the brusque answer. I decided to leave it, and go up my room, but was not pleased. It was the attitude more than anything else. I also did notice that the hotel was absolutely not full. The room was comfortable, clean. Breakfast at the lounge was so so, but service was friendly. What made my day was the fact that the driver of the shuttle was kind, and took the trouble to drop us off directly at the car rental office. Thanks so much!; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Homewood Suites by Hilton Moab; City: Moab Utah; Review: Location: in center of Moab, various restaurants within walking distance. Close to multiple national parks. Large parking lot and garage. Welcome and check-in was friendly and quick. The room was quite large, had a small but efficient kitchen, large refrigerator, where one could easily prepare a simple meal. Large bathroom with shower only. Thick towels and Neutrogena amenities. A fairly decent breakfast is included. Our floor had a nice guest laundry too. The only thing I did not like was the dog smell in the room the first night. I removed the pillows and rug, the next day housekeeping sprayed, and the smell was gone. Upon departure, I was informed that one can ask a pet free room. Too bad I didn't think to ask when making the reservation! Our stay was pleasant. If in the area, I certainly would consider staying here again.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Denver Airport Marriott at Gateway Park; City: Aurora Colorado; Review: Arrival: after a 15 minute wait the hotel shuttle picked us up at the airport. Helpful driver! Cool water was offered, nice. Not much to do around the hotel. I did notice an Applebee's close by. Check-in was friendly, platinum status acknowledged with upgrade and complimentary breakfast. The room was nice and clean, bed comfortable, black out curtains, good light etc. Clean bathroom with decent quality amenities. We had an issue, and management took care of it professionally and efficiently. Great attitude, manager sets a great example for his staff! Customer service is truly a priority here. The room was very quiet, no noise to be heard. Restaurant: variety of tasty dishes. Good breakfast. One remark: we saw quite a few crumbs etc. on the floor as well on the chairs during dinner. An extra run of the vacuum cleaner would not hurt. All in all this was a good stay, and we would certainly return when again in the area.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Ritz Carlton Residences Waikiki Beach; City: Honolulu Oahu Hawaii; Review: Due to a strike at the Royal Hawaiian, we changed our reservation to the brandnew Ritz Carlton, and were happy we did. The location is close to but not on the beach. Beautiful rooftop pool makes up for that. All the excitement of Waikiki is within easy walking distance, whereas the hotel itself is an oasis of peace and quiet. The suite was beautiful, very clean with comfortable bed, kitchenette, and all the comforts one expects from this brand. The employees are well-trained, friendly, and seem to take a personal interest in the well-being of their guests. The place may feel a bit 'sterile' compared to the traditional Hawaiian hotels, which may be due to its new condition. For us not a big deal considering the excellent quality of the suite. I assume that, with time, the hotel will add a finishing touch with a few Hawaiian features here and there. The pool restaurant is nice and has the usual cocktails and comfort foods. The second restaurant looks very modern, and did not appeal to us. Plenty of restaurants close by though. We would definitely return.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel; City: New York City New York; Review: We stayed here for three nights and were pleasantly surprised. Location could not be better. Walking distance from all the sights, subway station close by. Lots of restaurants in immediate surroundings. Helpfull bell service upon arrival. Check-in desk staff excellent: professional, very friendly, interested in their guests. Rooms were clean and functional. Housekeeping did a great job. Elevators fast, no wait. Concierge lounge was roomy, had a nice variety of foods for breakfast, and for the cocktail hours. Although I greatly dislike all the 'destination and resort fees' that many hotels now charge, this one was not too bad: $25.- for a $35.- credit. I can recommend this hotel.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: New Balance Women's WO69 Running Shoe; Brand: ; Review: I am a new balance fan, big time. These are horrible. There is zero support in the foot bed. It is flat, and hard like a rock. The uppers are terribly cheap feeling and rather than being purple as described are a instead a putrid magenta pink color. I can't help but wonder if these are some sort of NB rip off. I've never seen NB shoes so shoddily made. 2 stars because, in theory, you could wear them and call them shoes. That is about all.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Ariat Women's Terrain Work Boot; Brand: ; Review: These shoes are a disaster. My entire adult life, in all brands except Nike, I have worn a 10. These arrived and I tried them on, and they look like clown shoes. They are huge on me. I would think if you had wide feet AND wanted to wear thick winter socks, it might be ok. Otherwise, nope. To make things worse, the left one had a hard lump on the outer edge of the foot bed, while the right was normal. Obviously these are going back and I'll not be ordering anything from Ariat anymore.

Title: Danner Women's High Ground 8" Break-Up Infinity Hunting Boots; Brand: Danner; Review: These arrived today. It's the third pair of shoes I've ordered and the first I won't be returning. FINALLY a shoe that fits. The first two were not Danners. I have not tested them out in the environment yet, I will update when I do, but I can say they fit nicely and the quality seems great so far. I have ONE complaint though. In the photo on the page, it shows the Danner logo on the tongue as orange. I was not pleased to open the box and see the logo is instead a bright baby pink. Thanks a lot Danner, for putting a "lovely" pink logo on my HUNTING BOOTS. These aren't dress shoes, they are hunting boots, and just because I am female doesn't mean I need pink on everything I own. The good news is that I can rub something, a marker, some dirt, whatever...over the logo and stain it so it's not a big pink eyesore anymore, but I shouldn't have to do that. The other good news is that you can kind of cover the logo with the shoelace. I've attached a photo to show the pink so you aren't surprised when you get them like I was. The photo is a little washed out in the sun, so be aware it's a bit pinker than it appears in the photo.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: SkinniBelt Women's Elastic Belt; Brand: SkinniBelt; Review: The belt seems great, it's not prone to opening on it's own, fits well, and does the job. However, it would help if pants had a couple more belt loops round the back!; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Oldelf Tactical Heavyweight Balaclava Outdoor Sports Mask; Brand: Joyoldelf; Review: Wow, this thing is warm. We've been having -35F temps lately so I ordered this for when I have to be outdoors. It's a double thick layer and seems quite wind proof and nice and warm. That said, this is not as "huge" as people are making it out to be. I was disappointed in the size myself. It's a slightly tight fit over a ponytail or bun. I ordered the Grey color, so perhaps that has something to do with it, maybe some colors run smaller than others. Even so I am still happy with the purchase and recommend it. Oh, and yes, it did stink when I got it. I washed it up quick and it's fine now.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Wigwam F3025 Women's Cable Knee High. Sock; Brand: Wigwam; Review: They seem a bit on the small side, and I have narrow feet, thin legs. The wool is coarser than I had hoped but not unwearable by any means. They won't make "favorite" status but they aren't bad either.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Darn Tough Summit Stripe Cushion Boot Sock - Women's; Brand: Darn Tough; Review: These are great socks. However I did experience an anomaly. I ordered 2 pair, both size large because I wear a size 10 shoe. Both arrived labeled size large, but one pair fit well and one was loose. It was odd. So I have kept the pair that fit and returned the other. Because of this I am unsure if I need a medium or the large, so to find out I have ordered a medium to see. Either way these are great socks. The wool is slightly coarse but not itchy and very comfortable on the foot. This particular pair is a boot cushion type which means it's cushioned on the sole of the foot, and around the ankle where a pair of boots would sit and perhaps rub the leg. It's comfy and nice. There are full cushion socks that are the same thickness all around if you prefer that as well. How can you beat socks that are USA made, and come with a guarantee like the one DT comes with? Worth the price for sure. Great colors as well. Never boring. UPDATE: The mediums arrived. They fit my size 10 or 10.5 foot better than the oddly oversized large did.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Sorel Women's Meadow Lace Boot; Brand: SOREL; Review: I like these boots but they have a few considerations. First, after reading the reviews, I automatically ordered up a whole size. They fit well. I put a different liner in the foot bed (leaving the one that comes with them in, and putting a "hot foot" liner in to make them more padded and warmer. The foot bed of these is rather flat and hard otherwise. The other complaint I have is that they need one more lace loop. The loops stop too soon leave the top to gap open a bit more than I'd prefer. I'll add one myself I think.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | amazon_Clothing_Shoes_and_Jewelry |

Title: Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes - PlayStation 4 Standard Edition; Brand: by
Konami; Review: This is a demo, not a full game, and it mainly features the new engine being used in MGS5: The Phantom Pain. That being said, it's a fun and full demo. You play as Snake set on a mission to rescue old comrades from a US Military base in Cuba. Being familiar with the MGS Peacewalker game will give you some much-needed insight to happenings here. Nevertheless, the demo is a few hours in length, with many side missions and difficulties for completionists. I give this 3 stars for two reasons: one, it is too expensive and at this day and time (years after the game is out), it should really be free or bundled with the main game for a low, low value. Two, it is short.; Rating: 3.0/5.0

Title: Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain - PlayStation 4; Brand: by
Konami; Review: Long time MGS fan, from the first time I played MGS on PS1. The Phantom Pain is hands down the BEST game in terms of game play, no questions asked. It has a great open-ended system when engaging missions, literally giving the player a near infinite number of ways to go about completing the same mission. This is different than previous MGS games, where the paths were more made for you, and you simply followed one (usually the best one). In Phantom Pain, you have two areas, both of which are open-ended and feature re-spawning enemies. The game also gives you an insane amount of gear (weapons, utilities, support mechanics, etc.) which you can spend well over 100 hours fully developing if you're crazy enough too. Realistically though, you don't need more than 80% of what they give you, but it is fun getting some of the later game weapons maxed out and revisiting missions (or the open world) with them. MGS5 also features a base-leveling mechanic, where you obtain resources to build out Mother Base. The larger your base, the quicker you can develop items, better support you get (such as helicopter bombardments), and the more soldiers you can get to do off-missions (automated missions you don't control which net you resources). The micro-management is very simply, and the game handles most if it on its own. You have the ability to take a more direct hand if you want, but unless you're really sure of what your doing, there is no real need. There's also an online mechanic which allows you to attack other players bases for resources, though they can attack yours in retaliation. Interesting, though I didn't do much of it. Overall, I can say the game play alone can last one 60-70+ hours, easily. I think I had 80 hours logged before I decided to finish the game off, and that was only with about 50% of my items developed. The game itself is fluid, responsive, and it takes everything good from MGS4 and expands upon it a great deal. Like I said, easily the best MGS in terms of raw game play, bar none. However, where the game is AWFUL (and I mean AWFUL) is where MGS is usually strong: the story. The Phantom Pain takes place in the 80's, after Peacewalker (assuming anyone played it), and is supposed to explain Big Boss and his fall to villainy. I can't say it does that at all. As a matter of fact, it hardly tells the story of anything. It has a weak premise, weaker characters (hardly any, so to speak), and baseless, boring villains. It starts strong ... then falls apart after the opening act. Well, doesn't fall apart, it just never goes anywhere. I was stunned at how lackluster and bad the story was, given that MGS is known for crazy, elaborate, and over the top storylines. And what's worse, the characters are horrible. Big Boss hardly says more than 10 words the entire game. Your supporting cast (Ocelot and Kaz) talk, but generally only; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Odin Sphere Leifthrasir - PlayStation 4 Standard Edition; Brand: by
Atlus; Review: Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir is a beautiful remake of the original PS2 Odin Sphere, released in 2007. This is NOT a remastered version; this is actually a remake of the original, with enhanced graphics and updated combat mechanics. The original was great; the remake is far better (and as a bonus, this actually includes the classic version as well, if you so wished to try it). The game features an interesting, character-driven story that revolves around warring kingdoms. As the player, you control one of five characters at a time, driving them through their narrative story. When you complete the story of one character, the second unlocks. When the second is completed, the third unlocks ... this pattern repeats until you complete all five characters stories. Each story helps explain all sides of the conflict, and each new story does a great job of explaining in the gaps/holes of other stories, or giving you insight as to what happens from the other sides point of view. The events of one character might take place before the subsequent character's, or during them, or after them (timeline wise). By the end, you are treated to an easy to follow yet complex and engaging story that unfolds beautifully. The game play is fluid, quick, and responsive. It's basically a side-scrolling action game that boasts combo-based attack systems, spells, and RPG character leveling/skills. One unique thing about the game is that the majority of your experience comes from preparing food. While you do get XP from killing enemies, eating food is your primary source. It's easy to pick up and dedicated players can really maximize leveling up using the combine alchemy system. All-in-all, as a person who generally dislikes food and alchemy in games, I love it in Odin Sphere. In terms of combat, each character is truly unique yet still maintains similar elements. You'll start at level 1 with each character when their story begins, but the game does a good job of giving you a feel for their play style before throwing you into the grinder. Overall, if your an RPG fan, Odin Sphere is one of those games you should definitely play. A full play through will net around 30-40 hours. The game is linear in terms of navigating you through it, though you are free to revisit battlegrounds to acquire more gold, items, and XP to power level your character. However, don't expect some large, open-ended experience. This game is not like that. I consider it a story-driven narrative with a fun and enjoyable combat system. You are either listening to characters talk, or you are killing things. There's not much in between the two.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Square Enix; Review: Awful.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Horizon Zero Dawn - PlayStation 4; Brand: by
Sony; Review: Beautiful game aesthetically, with some solid and fluid gameplay that grows on you the further the adventure goes on. Aloy controls and handles really well, boasting strong animations and tight handles. Combat is very satisfying and robust. You have many different ways to take down foes, and them you. Each time you encounter a new beast you do have to analyze it's strengths and weaknesses, else you'll most likely lose (or retreat). Once you learn how to defeat an enemy, and once you get better equipment, the fights become a bit more routine ... but they are still fun, and still dangerous. While the strength of the game is its gameplay, its weakness is the questing, characters, and story. While the story is entertaining from the stand point of being unique, it isn't told in a really grand or interesting way. The characters themselves (Aloy included) are very cliche (tribal dolts) and uninspired. Nothing truly stands out, and you often go to yourself, "Who is this? Why do I care? Didn't I just see the same NPC elsewhere? What's his/her name? Does it matter?" The questing is generic---nothing we haven't seen 100x over in other RPGs, MMORPGs, and quest-centric games before. However, carried by strong and engaging gameplay and a beautiful world, the story is nonetheless decent. And the game offers a lengthy journey if you really want to complete everything or just feel like straight monster hunting.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: PS4 Controller Charger, Megadream Playstation 4 Charging Station for Sony PS4 / PS4 Pro / PS4 Slim DualShock 4; Brand: Megadream; Review: It does what it's supposed to do. But it has a silly looking design and is a bit large. Also, bear in mind, you'll need a USB charger. Once plugged in, the annoying blue lights cant be turned off unless you unplug the thing ... and they are quite bright. I've hardly used it, honestly.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Mass Effect Andromeda - Pre-load - PS4 Digital Code; Brand: by
Electronic Arts; Review: Ive been defending ME:A with optimism (not my strong suit) believing that this would be a strengthening of the ME:3 formula, just as ME3 was over ME2, and ME2 over ME1. Boy, was I DEAD WRONG. This game is so horrendous, Im shocked. I was thinking it would be an improvement over ME:3 yet with the typical Bioware intricacies we have all known to come-to-love-to-hate (tedious resource gathering, some apparent animation issues here and there, corridor-designed levels, and looooonnnnggggg loading times). But thats not what the issue is here... far from it, in fact. What is ME:A? Lets just say its one of the most unfinished, unpolished embarrassing jumbles of a game Ive ever seen from a AAA product, especially of such a well renowned franchise. Every scene in this game suffers from lack of finished character textures, neophyte facial+body animations, massive frame drops, missing animation sequences. Frankly, in my eyes, it makes the game unplayable. - Characters' skin look like untextured plastic, with no shading or detail and little definition. - Hair will appear as a solid mass of matte blobs in just about every other scene, especially secondary/auxiliary characters. - Frame stutters and drops happen in nearly every single dialogue scene, and to extremely noticeable amounts ... and for no reason. Nothing taxing is hitting the PS4. Instead, this is all about lack of time to add finishing touches. Normally things like this do not bother me, but its so damn apparent and consistent here, its shameless. Additionally, mix it in with the above points and it turns into a muddled nightmare caked in mud. It also shows in combat. There, combat has a significant lack of accurate audio in relation to your characters position vs. enemies and squad mates; enemies are barely detectable due to the wonky cover system (horrible, btw) and confused A.I. routines. Enemies will be right next to you and you them and you won't even know, and they sometimes don't even notice youthankfully, for if they did youd be dead in a couple seconds (on hard or extreme difficulty). As with other areas, combat animations are all over the place and fresh out of polish: successful attacks sometimes are unnoticeable if it wasn't for the massive health bar floating over an enemies head, and enemies blood splatter and death woe animations look like they were imported straight from the code of Darkfall Online (and that is NOT a good thing for any unfamiliar with Darkfalland Im talking about the games first incarnation, not the reboot). I cant begin to describe how unfinished this game is. And that is takes NO qualities of ME:3 ... its almost a restructured formula from the ground-up, done by developers straight out of college, and under a rushed EA timeline for Q1 revenue. ME:3 had a good formula. All they had to do was improve it. Yet, they toss that out the window and come up with this? It would be fine if they had another year to finish it. But not in its current state... I just find myself; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: NieR: Automata - Playstation 4; Brand: by
Square Enix; Review: Creative, fun, engaging, repayable (with slightly different stories told from other points of view each play through), and one of the best video game soundtracks of all time. I've been a gamer since the mid 80's, and few games pull me in anymore. NeiR: Automata is one of those seldom games that has done so. The title feels fresh and original, including small details to things like the UI (which even glitches out when you are hacked). While the game could be expanded in some areas, it still offers a relatively open world on rails, fun and quick combat, and a great atmosphere. For anyone who is a science fiction fan or a steampunk/cyberpunk fan, this is a definite get.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Video_Games |
