Title: Twist; Brand: Nick Stahl; Review: I like movies that put a new spin on classic tales, but this one was just okay. Good performances but it lacked a spark. If you are into indie, explicity gay-themed movies, check out NEVERLAND (the gay-themed Peter Pan, NOT the Johnny Depp movie!) or watch FREEWAY (Reese at her trashy best). These movies really do something interesting with the source material - in fact NEVERLAND stays closest to the original while still managing to be completely unique - and the cast is gorgeous.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Sugar; Brand: Brendan Fehr; Review: Of course I was attracted to the movie because the guys looked so cute, but I was surprised at how well this was done. It was very involving and actually quite moving. This movie, LATTER DAYS and NEVERLAND (the gay-themed Peter Pan movie - not the Johnny Depp movie!) have the sexiest guys ever. I highly recommend these three movies if you are into extremely beautiful men and explicitly gay-themed independent movies. SUGAR and NEVERLAND are a bit on the edgier side, but impressive nonetheless.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Locked Up; Brand: Mike Sale,Ralph Steel Marcel Schlutt; Review: So they are naked. That isn't enough to watch this thing. If you are into extremely beautiful men and explicitly gay-themed independent movies. SUGAR, GRANDE ECOLE and NEVERLAND (the gay themed Peter Pan - NOT the Johnny Depp movie!) are far more impressive. Even NEVERLAND's prison/bondage thing at the end with the lost boys tied up and in jail is sexier than this. Just because guys are naked doesn't make it hot.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Eating Out; Brand: Jim Verraros; Review: I have to agree with one of the previous reviews. It just seems like there aren't a lot of decent gay movies - they all just seem like a 90 minute excuse to see a couple of naked guys for a little bit. EATING OUT is the perfect example of the lowest common denominator: poor in every way except for the cute guys. If you want to see good/interesting, explicity gay-themed indies then check out SUGAR, NEVERLAND (the gay-themed PETER PAN - not the Johnny Depp movie!), TRICK - even LATTER DAYS, which had some talent and creativity behind it. EATING OUT is another really bad, over-hyped mess.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Freeway VHS; Brand: Reese Witherspoon; Review: I love modernized fairy tales like this - they need to make more fo these. The modern updated version of NEVERLAND (the twisted Peter Pan movie - NOT the Johnny Depp movie!) is another one of the greats. Reese is HOT!; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Movies_and_TV |

Title: Camerons Products Christmas Light 12" Storage Reels (3pk) - Heavy Duty Metal Construction with X-Mas Carrying Bag Case; Brand: Camerons Products; Review: These work perfectly and provides a way for you to neatly store Christmas lights. You won't be untangling them next year. The case zips up and easy to store away. It lost one star for me because I would like it to have been bigger so I could wrap more strands. I suggest buying two.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Style Master Renaissance Montauk Metallic Box Print Sheer 53-Inch by 95-Inch Grommet Panel, Ivory; Brand: Style Master; Review: It is sheer so it provides no privacy, however it's very beautiful. I sewed a sheet to the backing of it and now it's great.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Curtainworks Marquee Faux Silk Pinch Pleat Curtain Panel, 30 by 132", Chestnut; Brand: Curtainworks; Review: I think these curtains are nice, the pleated at the top makes them nice. They aren't as thick or heavy as I hoped. A side note, they are very very skinny... Would need to order two to cover a small window at best. Curtains are suppose to still have a gathered appearance even when covering the window, not just when pushed back. I might have to order more just to make it look a decent size.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Original Butt Donut Cushion -Inflatable Donut Pillow 15 Inch - Hemorrhoid Pain, Bed Sores, Tailbone Pain, Pilonidal; Brand: Babymommy; Review: I don't know what I would have done without this little gem after I had surgery "down there". It's also quite comfortable probably for people that had an episiotomy or broken tailbone. My kids think it's a toy and I'm constantly taking it away from them though.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sunbeam Heated Blanket | 10 Heat Settings, Quilted Fleece, Ivy, King; Brand: Sunbeam; Review: Bigger than expected for a throw. The problem is that even in the high setting it does not get warm enough.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Sunbeam Heated Blanket | 10 Heat Settings, Quilted Fleece, Garnet, Full; Brand: Sunbeam; Review: Bigger than expected for a throw. The problem is that even in the high setting it does not get warm enough.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Bedsure Mattress Pad Full Size Hypoallergenic - Antibacterial, Breathable - Ultra Soft Quilted Mattress; Brand: Bedsure; Review: This fits over our mattress and the 4" mattress topper with no problem. So if you have a thick pillowtop mattress it should be fine. It works perfectly for protecting the mattress and it washes easily. However it is quite noisy when you move around in the bed at night. It might be annoying to your partner. If you sleep alone it will be fine.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Best Price Mattress 4-Inch Memory Foam Mattress Topper, Full; Brand: Best Price Mattress; Review: Why do I have to get out of this bed and go to work, cruel cruel world; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Home_and_Kitchen |
Given the interaction history of a user with hotels as follows:
Title: Eliza Lodge; City: Dublin County Dublin; Review: Staff are very friendly and helpful, my partner arranged birthday balloons, wine etc to be in the room waiting for us, the staff accommodated this without a problem and were helpful in where these could be obtained. The room itself had stunning views over the city and river, it was as it is in the pictures and immaculately clean. Its just off Temple Bar so close to all the bars and the sights but it wasn't noisy at all. Breakfast was great, but there are lots of places to eat should you want to get out and about. We would and definitely will return to this hotel.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Oxford; City: Rome Lazio; Review: Booked this hotel purely by chance on our first visit to Rome. We were greeted by very pleasant helpful staff who spoke perfect English. The room was very clean and comfortable and was a great base for our 4 day city break. We wanted to get out to try some local cuisine on our first night, again the staff were very helpful telling us of several restaurants near by and providing directions. They were right they were great places to eat. The next morning we spoke with the front desk staff asking how we would best get around / see the sights, with that he gave a map of Rome indicated where we were and how we could best get to everything we wanted to see. We walked to the train station to get to the Vatican, but everything else (Colloseum, Trevi fountain, etc) was within walking distance of the hotel (and we don't walk fast). On the last day the staff arranged our taxi to the airport whilst we took a last wander to Trevi for an ice-cream. This was a bargain of a hotel, great location, very friendly staff all making it a relaxing trip and one we will do again soon.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sandbanks Hotel; City: Poole Dorset England; Review: Booked this as a last minute quick getaway and was very pleasantly surprised at the location, the standard and the staff. The staff upon arrival were very helpful, smiles and polite. The room was a large room which overlooked the carpark, but was clean spacious and the bed very comfy. Going downstairs we realised that we could access the stunning beach direct from the hotel and the view over the sea from the dining room was just breathtaking. We did eat our evening meal out, but breakfast was a vast choice of pretty much anything you could want and was excellent. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone just wanting to get away, wander along the beach or go into Poole or Bournemouth as both are close by.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lady s Mile Holiday Park; City: Dawlish Devon England; Review: Ladys Mile holiday park is just outside of Dawlish Warren and within easy reach by car or public transport of Exmouth, Torquay, Dawlish and Paignton etc. The park itself has lodges (large static caravans), pitches for caravans, motorhomes, tents. It has several shower / toilet blocks, laundrettes situated throughout the campsite - all very cleaned and well maintained. Also near the centre of the park is a kids play area. Near the reception it has a general shop, fish/chip shop, bar, restaurant, arcade, gym and beauty salon and although we did not use these we did look in and all were very well maintained. Entertainment is something they provide and when we walked by it looked good fun for kids and everyone there seemed to be enjoying it. The campsite also has indoor and outdoor pools, again well maintained and with lifeguards. We stayed in a Lodge which was in excellent condition, very clean, well equipped for self catering hol, TV and DVD if you need them. The only linen you need take are towels / tea towels. The site itself was well maintained, very quiet and the staff were very friendly both upon check in and out and on hand to hep whenever required. Approx 1/2 mile up the road is Sainsburys if you are self catering, but also in surrounding area are plenty of places to eat out. Definitely would go back to this place.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Central Hotel; City: Norwich Norfolk East Anglia England; Review: The positives first, the chap was a very nice man, very helpful and the room was clean and had tea/coffee facilities. The hotel does not have parking - it has access to approx 5 public spaces on the side of a busy road as does the rest of the world. So if these are not available there is not even room to unload your car, you have to find a public NCP which isn't a long walk but would be with lots of luggage. The room was dated and compact as was the bathroom, thankfully being right handed I could shave ok but a left handed person would not have been able to shave and use mirror thanks to no elbow room. The room above I can only assume was filming a fitness DVD given the amount of banging and running around (although how they ran around if their room was the same as mine is beyond me), The noise was unreal and they started at 11pm every night. Likewise people coming in at 2am thought it funny to slam doors and shout so we all knew they were in safe. Smokers would congregate at the top of the narrows steps at the front door so we could all inhale their fumes and smell like them. As I am not the first to comment on this one can only assume the same inconsiderate people stay regularly. I didn't have breakfast which is an additional cost at £5 for full English I booked this last minute and whilst it wasn't the cheapest it also wasn't the most expensive hotel in Norwich. So if you want to be close to the station, a short walk from city centre, have hardly any sleep and not park a car then this is your place. However if you want some rest and a car space then have a look for something else.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Marlborough Guest House; City: Norwich Norfolk East Anglia England; Review: Great value guest house with very friendly staff who were very helpful upon arrival with providing parking permit for the car. Reception was clean and inviting, staff we very chatty and happy to help with directions / getting your bearings, advising of local places to eat/drink/visit etc. I left my car there all day and walked into city centre in around 20 mins and riverside complex is approx 10 mins away. Norwich Football stadium is 5 mins away. I had a room with a shared bathroom, the room was very clean and tidy with TV, tea/coffee facilities and a small sink. The bathroom was very clean and well maintained and just off the landing, so not a million miles away from the room. Although being just behind the railway station, train noise is minimal, I didn't hear anything past 9pm. It did not affect my sleep in any way. Other guests are also considerate with noise levels so all in all a quiet place to rest up. Breakfast was great and very quick to the table. This is a great value place and I would stay here again without hesitation.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Annapurna Hotel Tenerife; City: Las Galletas Tenerife Canary Islands; Review: When we arrived they had only reserved 1 room instead of 3, but the check-in desk quickly provided us with our bands and told us to go grab a drink at the bar and they would sort it. They did this within 30 mins and we had 3 rooms next to each other.....excellent. The rooms had a room with twin/double bed, a lounge area with a double sofa bed (quite comfy), TV, balcony and a small fridge and food prep area if required. Wifi is an additional cost. The bath/shower was clean, tidy and did the job. The beds were made every day and the towels switched half way through the week. There is a small supermarket over the road from where you can buy some supplies if required. The pool is huge....... its seawater filled very clean and clear. They also have a smaller kids pool for young ones. There are plenty of sunbeds and shade in and around the pool area, although they cannot be reserved and towels were removed if they fund beds not being used. There is a good sea breeze around the poolside, so lots of sun-cream required as it can mislead as to how hot it really is. Next to the hotel is a small beach from which the snorkelling is excellent, again the water is very clear. You can also fish in and around these rocks, just mind the snorkellers! The food is your average all inclusive buffet that you'll get anywhere and not really aimed at vegetarians as most dishes are meat or fish based. You get 4 sittings - Breakfast, Lunch, Afternoon snack, Evening meal. If you are drinking alcohol then 2 drinks per person per visit, but you can go straight back up and get more..... it just means you cannot get a large order and you have to queue again if you get your timing wrong. Its approx 40 mins on bus (stop outside hotel) to Costa Adeje (Siam water park) at 2 euros per person and that's worth a visit. Overall the staff were friendly and helpful, the place clean and tidy and we all had a great time for the week. Very relaxing, plenty of sun and cooling off in the pool.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Aspro Spiti Apartments; City: Tigaki Kos Dodecanese South Aegean; Review: Arrived and was given room 18, walking through the pool/garden area it was clear that this place needed some work and it was overrun with weeds. We were shown the room which was basic and totally need of work and a complete restoration. The decor was tired, the toilet was leaking, the shower was a hand held device, the self catering facilities were old and didn't look clean,the fridge was dirty, the 1980's portable TV was not attached to it wall mounting so if you pressed the buttons you had to hold it steady so it didn't fall on your head, the towels had holes in them but did get changed after day 2. The rooms are also not very sound proofed so if you have noisy neighbours - too bad. We were told on check out we could use the showers by the pool, how ever these were in worst condition than the one in the room and had no locks so anyone around the pool could walk in as it was also the poolside toilet. The staff were friendly and very helpful, but the place does need work. Wifi is poolside / bar only, safety deposit boxes are extra charge as is air con. Location is good only 1/2 mile to beach which is via Tigaki. The pool looked clean - although looks can be deceiving as whilst we were there 1 family allowed their toddler to enter when she quite clearly was having issues with her stomach...... enough said!; Rating: 2.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Aravon Womens Katy; Brand: Aravon; Review: This is a very comfortable sandal and the blue is a pretty color. Because the insole comes out, it accommodates my orthotic. The sandal gives good support and so is an excellent shoe for walking.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: SAS Womens Free Time; Brand: SAS; Review: I have a bad back and good shoes are very important for me. I have an orthotic insert that is quite high for one foot and my shoes need to accommodate that, so the shoe's insole needs to be removable. This shoe meets all these needs, gives good support, and is very comfortable; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Noble Mount Womens Premium Microfiber Trouser Socks - 3 Pack (Size 9-11); Brand: ; Review: These socks are soft and comfortable and fit well. I got them in three different colors and I love them.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Tommy Hilfiger Women's Three-Pack Crew Socks; Brand: ; Review: These are pretty, the colors are great, they fit perfectly and I can;t believe how soft they are. I should have bought more.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Aria Women's Clam Digger Pant Pajama; Brand: Aria; Review: The clam digger pant pajamas are a cute pattern and the fabric is nice and soft. Both the shirt and the bottoms fit nicel y and are very comfortable. I love sleeping in them.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Bali Women's Skimp Skamp Brief Panty Number 2633 (Pack of 3); Brand: ; Review: The fit is good and the fabric is soft and comfortable.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Bali Women's Skimp Skamp Brief Panty Number 2633; Brand: ; Review: They fit fine and are soft and comfortable.. It's just that the material feels thinner than in the past.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Aetrex Women's Helen Stretch Mary Jane; Brand: Aetrex; Review: The shoes are fine, soft comfortable material. As it happens, the orthotic for my right foot is higher by almost half an inch than for the left foot. The shoe just barely accommodates that extra height. I only wore them for a few minutes, but I think they will be all right.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Drew Shoe Women's Bloom II Mary Jane; Brand: Drew Shoe; Review: They just arrived so I have only worn them for a few minutes, but my foot felt at home right away, and my orthotic fit just fine.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Clothing_Shoes_and_Jewelry |

Title: VELCRO Brand - ONE-WRAP For Cables, Wires & Cords - 8" x 1/2" Ties, 25 Ct. - Gray; Brand: VELCRO Brand; Review: My favorite velcro strips. Strong and durable. I have some from five years ago that I am still using. Ooooh, red!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: LapDesk Schoolhouse Wood LapDesk with storage (45075); Brand: Lap Desk; Review: I like this lapdesk. It holds my work notebook and pens and phone and mouse and mousepad. The padding in comfortable and I like how it raises the laptop up a little higher. I have used it all day as I work from home and have been happy with it. What I am not happy about was when it arrived one of the pins had fallen out of a hinge. I filed a return though Amazon and never heard from the merchant which is ridiculous. After Christmas while still waiting on a response from the merchant I found the missing hinge pin, it had fallen out in the box then fallen out of the box when I had unpacked it. I fixed the hinge and it's been fine but that is some LOUSY customer service from the merchant. I want another one for personal use (this one is for work) but will buy it from another vendor and will avoid the first vendor in the future. Not responding to complaints about defective products is unacceptable.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Honey-Can-Do TBL-03540 Portable Laptop Lap Desk with Handle, Mint, 23 L x 16 W x 2.5 H; Brand: Honey-Can-Do; Review: Good lap desk. It's wide enough to have a 15" laptop and still have room for a small mouse on the side. If you're not as good with the touchpad as a mouse this one is for you. It JUST fits on my lap between the arms of my recliner.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Alvin 9866 Brass Bullet Sharpener; Brand: Alvin; Review: Great sharpener. Heavy in the hand and the blades are replaceable with standard sharpener blades. Goes great with the Midori brass pencil.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Midori Brass Pencil Case (38061006); Brand: Midori Way; Review: Cool pencil. The brass gets a nice dark patina. Everyone wants to know where I got it. The refills are inexpensive, too. I keep these with my favorite notebooks.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: 8x Arune Pen Loop - 3 SIZES to fit ANY Pen or Pencil - SECURE hold - Rigid Texture; Brand: Arune; Review: Very handy for keeping your favorite fancy pen/pencil with your favorite books. I use these every day and they are holding up very well, none have come loose yet. I cannot find a criticism for them.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Office_Products |
Given the interaction history of a user with hotels as follows:
Title: Airport City Hub; City: Katunayaka Western Province; Review: The hotel is conveniently located for those seeking accommodation near to the airport. The hotel offered a free pickup service from the airport, which when it finally got to us after some confusion and a delay, was nice to have after 14 hours or so of flying. The hotel was clean and set in attractive grounds. Would recommend for a short stay following arrival in Sri Lanka, but can't comment on the hotel as a long-term option.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Weligama Bay Resort; City: Weligama Matara Southern Province; Review: Lovely hotel, situated on the nicest beach we visited in Sri Lanka. The staff were extremely helpful, responsive and attentive. The hotel was let down a touch by quite bland food served in the Cutty Sark restaurant on site. The breakfasts were good, but the rest of the menu was quite uninspired and expensive for what you got (that hasn't affected the score as the restaurant has a separate Trip Advisor page). The room we stayed in (junior suite) was spacious and clean. The bathroom is also deserving of a mention as the nicest during our two week trip around Sri Lanka.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Le Grand Meaulnes Family Hotel; City: Habarana North Central Province; Review: Spent one night here. Nice room with AC, very quiet. Wifi was hit and miss. Food was poor to average. Caretaker was pleasant. Hired a driver from here (Sarat(sp?)) for three days and he was excellent as a guide to the area and on wildlife - we would recommend him to others staying here. Great location for exploring the local area/cultural triangle (Sigiriya, Ritagala, Polonnaruwa) The nearby Safari (Eco) was ok but don't be bullied into it if you're planning to go to some of the more famous safaris.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Galkadawala Forest Lodge; City: Habarana North Central Province; Review: A truly beautiful place. The rooms have wooden blinds around the edges but the room is essentially open to the forest making you feel at one with nature. There is also a viewing deck upstairs which is a peaceful place to spend a couple of hours relaxing. Maulie, the owner, is a lovely lady who is very friendly and has great tips about where to visit. The staff were also all very polite and professional - it is clearly a very well run place. The food was exceptional! All vegetarian dishes and delicious. The staff were even kind enough to make us wadis after we had asked about them the night before. We would absolutely recommend Galkadawala to anyone wanting to have a forest experience and stay away from the busier main roads in Habarana. One thing to mention of course is that as you are staying in the forest, you are also staying in close quarters with the wildlife that lives there and shouldn't be suprised to receive any small visitors (we had a gecko who visited us each day).; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Villa Tangalle Lagoon; City: Tangalle Southern Province; Review: The hotel is in a great location, with some of the accommodation being within 15 m or so of the beach. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was great. The room was clean. We found the sound of the waves at night quite soothing.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Yale Kandy Park; City: Kandy Kandy District Central Province; Review: This hotel is a 30 minute drive from the centre of Kandy but it was absolutely worth staying outside the centre. The hotel is located high on a hill and has breathtaking views. When we arrived we were told that we had been upgraded to a luxury room free of charge which was a lovely surprise. The room was huge with beautiful views from the balcony. We watched the sunset from the balcony which was a wonderful experience. On our first night we had dinner at the hotel - Sri Lankan curry - which was absolutely delicious and the views from the dining area were wonderful! We would highly recommend. Breakfast was also very good. The hotel also offers a driver at a very reasonable price to take you around Kandy for the day and pick you up in the evening to bring you back to the hotel. The owner even kindly organised the driver to take us to the train station free of charge when we checked out. This was our favourite hotel during our trip to Sri Lanka and we would happily go back.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Metro City Hotel; City: Colombo Western Province; Review: Not a bad budget hotel to help keep costs down for an overnight stay in Colombo. We left early in the morning and the guys on reception kindly arranged for a packed breakfast for us. It's not in the prettiest area of Colombo, but then Colombo isn't all that pretty anyway. The room that we stayed in was at the back of the hotel, which was great for noise given it was furthest from the road, but in the event of fire it would be difficult to escape.; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Low Carb Diet for Beginners: Essential Low Carb Recipes to Start Losing Weight; Author: Visit Amazon's Mendocino Press Page; Review: This is a good and well written book. It's important to realize it does say "for beginners" in the title. I would think of it more of a 'synopsis' than anything else. It will give people a good idea about whether they do or don't want to try this. But this book isn't what I would consider to be the only book you want to read on this subject. More thorough explanations can be found in 'Protein Power' or Mr Atkins books, etc. But I've found this book has mentioned some things I've forgotten, a few new things, and some good recipes. So for the current discount to only .99 on yer kindle, I can't complain for a second.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Latin-American Spanish (Eyewitness Travel Guide Phrase Books); Author: DK Publishing; Review: I've just started this book (had it for awhile) as it's looking more and more likely I need to learn Latin American Spanish. The CD is a big help cuz you get to hear words pronounced correctly, some of them I'd never have guessed. The thing I like the most about it is that it's well organized, it's clear and concise. It's a daunting task to learn a new language, one really needs a book to be organized like this one so that it doesn't take forever to get there. There are 2 options for ordering this book, one is for 'The Book', the other is for 'The CD'. In my case, I ordered the CD and got both the book and the CD. There's a couple of people whining in these reviews they didn't get the CD. Maybe that's because all you ordered was the book? I admit it's confusing, but I ordered the CD and the book came also. It probably should say 'Book' or 'Book and CD'.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: How to Create Stunning Digital Photography; Author: Visit Amazon's Tony Northrup Page; Review: I'm so happy to have found this book. The authors have done a fantastic job explaining a wide range of aspects about photography. The information is conveyed clearly and thoroughly. I wasn't expecting the last chapter on Under Water photography, very cool. After reading the Macro chapter, my diopters arrive tomorrow. The authors also have a FB group (they invite you to join in the book) that currently has more than 12k members, and they encourage people to post pictures and ask for critiques and/or just to discuss. I'm in the process of joining right now. If you want to get better at Composition, this book is one of the best.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: American on Purpose: The Improbable Adventures of an Unlikely Patriot; Author: Visit Amazon's Craig Ferguson Page; Review: Craig is a very unique person. Not only is he very talented, likable, funny... he's also someone with strength of character. I wish he was still doing late night, he always made me laugh. Getting a smile on this old face is not that easy either.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Republican Brain: The Science of Why They Deny Science- and Reality; Author: Visit Amazon's Chris Mooney Page; Review: One of the best books I've read that helps to explain the differences between us. These differences are prevalent throughout our lives, in our families, etc, you can never really 'get away' from them. I think you'll live longer and be happier the better you understand. I'm currently reading one of the books Mr Mooney used as a resource. I've already read Dr Bob's 'The Authoritarians' book... These books have made and are making a world of difference to me. Thank You.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Protein Power Lifeplan; Author: Visit Amazon's Michael R. Eades Page; Review: I DID buy this book when it first came out! And have been using this diet ever since! Well okay, sometimes I've fallen off the wagon, be it pushed by sugar cravings or alcohol. BUT, within a short time, I get back on the horse and in no time, back to being in good shape. The thing I find the most disturbing is soooo many articles about these 'Fad' low carb diets. You just want to yell "it's not a dam* fad"!!! But that is what some would like to characterize it as. You have to wonder about their motivations? They just want to write something (anything)? They are paid by the sugar industry somehow? It's hard to know. If you want to understand low carb diets, you have to read the book. You have to learn how to determine 'net carbs' from product labels. You have to recognize when some labels make absolutely no sense re their sugar amounts (and to stay away from them). There are so many things (that taste good!) that work on a low carb diet. You have to put the work into it to discover them and cook them. So join the club! The more of us that demand mfg make things with less carbs (NO ADDED SUGAR!!) the better, it would make our lives easier and vastly more healthy! I'm very happy to now have this book on my kindle. Wouldn't be without a copy, ever.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: uxcell Plastic Fish Tank Aquarium Air Stone Bubble Wall Tube Airstone 10 Inch Long; Brand: uxcell; Review: Have bought my third one for my third tank. Need I say more? Great product for a great value. I will say each bar has a somewhat different airflow.

Title: Penn Plax Bendable Bubble Wall Air Diffuser; Brand: Penn Plax; Review: The diffuser bubbles well, it has good air flow, it is very easy to set flexed in any shape as stated.

Title: Ruffwear Front Range Harness - Twilight Gray; Brand: Ruffwear; Review: Really like the fit of this harness. First one that I have found that doesn't rub the pit of my dobe raw....I was loving it! Thought it did a great job of helping with a dog that keeps constant tension on the leash (she is not a hard puller, just always testing the end of the leash). Here's the drawback...... in playing with her (while on the leash) she dipped her head and shucked that harness in a blink of an eye. Thankfully we were in a secure area. Love the fit, can't let her wear it again. Not worth the risk of her slipping it and seeing a bird... She would be gone. : (; Rating: 1.0/5.0 | amazon_Pet_Supplies |

Title: Better Homes and Garden's Quilt-Lovers' Favorites Vol.4; Author: ; Review: Wanted this particular book for the directions for one quilt I'd seen somewhere on the web. Got the best price here, the book is like new and shipping was fast too. The pages are spiral bound so the book lays flat and stays open which is a good feature.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Seams Unlikely: The Inspiring True Life Story of Nancy Zieman; Author: Visit Amazon's Nancy Zieman Page; Review: I have been watching Sewing with Nancy on public TV for many years and always found her show to be interesting and informative, you really feel like she is a personal friend. Over the years I have done less and less sewing but recently have renewed interest thanks to a grand-daughter's enthusiasm and the acquisition of a 1946 Singer Featherweight 221. When I saw this book it immediately peaked my interest of America's best-loved and respected sewing instructor so I was curious about her background. This book fills in the blanks and is relaxing reading, I am enjoying it and recommend it to all Nancy Zieman fans.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Charles Wysocki - Americana Wall Calendar (2016); Author: AMCAL; Review: I love all of Charles Wysocki's paintings so I love this calendar. It also fits in the Lang Calendar Frame which is a bonus.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Shadow Spell (Cousins O'Dwyer); Author: Visit Amazon's Nora Roberts Page; Review: I bought these audio books to listen to while I drove 900 miles (15 hours with breaks) to visit family. I am giving them 5 stars because what I heard I loved and the problems weren't because of the books themselves. I TRIED to listen to them on an iPhone but 1. it wasn't loud enough and 2. it wasn't LOUD enough!!! I think I'm switching to an Android next time I update phones. : (; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Americana 2017 Calendar; Author: AMCAL; Review: I am a big fan of Charles Wysocki and love having a calendar with his artwork. The pages are heavyweight, textured and hold up well, no tearing from hanging it. This calendar fits in the Lang Perfect Timing Lang Classic Black Diamond Calendar Frame, 15 x 25.25 Inches (1016003) but would look equally as nice without it. I try to always buy a calendar by AMCAL since I know they are very high quality. I use Pilot FriXion Clicker Retractable Erasable Gel Pens, Fine Point, Assorted Color Inks, 7-Pack (31472) since I can "erase" anything that needs changed and it doesn't mess up the calendar.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: CPT 2017 Professional Edition (CPT/Current Procedural Terminology (Professional Edition)); Author: American Medical Association; Review: I will stay with this version from now on. I bought an "expert" version and thought it was a great product...for new coders. I am NOT a new coder & don't need the grade school level illustrations. In the future I will stick with the known and keep buying the AMA's official CPT book.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Vanessa's Beauty Salon; City: Terrytown, LA; Review: Just moved to the New Orleans area and needed a hair salon ASAP. I like Dominican hair salons because of their blow drying techniques. I finally found this one after much internet research. The shop itself isn't much to look at but the people are friendly. They speak mostly Spanish and some english. Once you tell them what you want their hands are working their magic. Vanessa (the owner) greeted me and also took care of me. When she washed my hair I felt like I was in heaven. Her fingertips message every inch of my scalp. The specialty here is a roller set. Your hair is washed, put into rollers, under the dryer, blown out straight, then flat ironed! Your left with beautiful straight free flowing hair. If your a women of color and do not want to put chemicals in your hair to straighten it then tis is a great option for you.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Auto Glass Now® Metairie; City: Metairie, LA; Review: Went in Auto Glass Now in Metairie today. I just left the Infiniti dealer feeling defeated since I think paying $365 was crazy to replace my driver side mirror only not the housing. I went into Auto Glass because beside my mirror, my windshield had two huge cracks! When it rains... Anyway, Keisha greeted me and gave me the pricing for my windshield replacement. She explained the pricing and said that a piece of chrome on my windshield has to be ordered from Infiniti (the piece is very thin and usually isn't salvageable from the old windshield) which adds an additional $100 to the cost. I was fine with the total pricing, it was still 35% cheaper then their competitors. I spoke to Keisha about my mirror problem and they took a look at it and give me a solution that really helped me out. BJ was my repair guy and he was awesome too! I have to say everyone was very nice and really helped me out! BJ was able to save the piece and my $100! They turned my bad day into a great one! I will refer and continue to use this company based on their excellent personnel and prices. The job was done well and I have no complaints!; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | yelp |

Title: Wild pig mom nurses her adorable newborn babies; Abstract: This mother pig has her hands full with ten hungry little newborn piglets to take care of. They were born just two days before this video was taken. The pigs are wild and they live on the edge of a jungle around a village on Vava'u Island in Tonga. Pigs are farmed here but they often run free, grazing and eating whatever they can find. Many pigs are fully wild, like this one and they can be seen foraging for food in compost heaps, farmer's fields, and under fruit trees. This very loving mother has ten piglets and they are extremely hungry. She lies down on the ground every few hours to let them feed. They nurse hungrily, climbing on each other adorably as they scramble for a chance at the best milk. This mother was also seen hiding her piglets in a little thicket so she could lie down beside them and sleep. Fiercely protective, the mother pig would be a formidable opponent for any dog or other predator who decided to try harming one of these little piglets. They will feed and grow rapidly under her watchful eye. They will need to be fast and strong if they want to survive life in the jungle. Tonga is a beautiful Kingdom with islands surrounded by crystal blue water. A visit here is like stepping back in time as guests witness a simple lifestyle and traditional ways. The Kingdom has not been industrialized as heavily as North America or Europe, and the people here enjoy a beautiful and natural home. But life is also hard and they work for everything, including food. Pigs like these are harvested as a food source by many. Hopefully, these little piglets will learn quickly and keep their wits about them.; Category: video

Given the interaction history of a user with hotels as follows:
Title: Fox Hounds Country Inn; City: Wongawallan Gold Coast Queensland; Review: Poor quality food, high chairs for children we some of the worst I have ever used. Not traditionally English & was not a classic English pub. Fox & Hound roast was terrible! Just cheap ingredients & left us wanting more than what was offered. Service was also quite poor, no menus, had no idea what drinks they did. Will not be returning.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Priory Hotel; City: Beauly Scottish Highlands Scotland; Review: We have stayed all around the world & for what we wanted it was brilliant, great food & breakfast. Huge rooms & a lovely village, close to Loch Ness, well worth the visit. For what we wanted it did the job nicely, would be back if we did not live in Australia.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Charm City Motel; City: Bundaberg Queensland; Review: Was not sure about staying & it was a last minute decision but really glad we did! Great for the family & the spa bath was lovely if not a bit cold when other people seemed to have used all the hot water? Really worth the stay & a lovely drive to bargara.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Ramada Hotel Suites by Wyndham Ballina Byron; City: Ballina Ballina Shire New South Wales; Review: Look the hotel was ok, large room but quite bare & impersonal. For $195 per night I have stayed in far better hotels. Room 512 was a corner suite & the main bedroom was filthy. The rest of the apartment was average, I can't really say more than that. Good location, everything within walking distance & check in staff were ok but we did not get to check in until 3 ish when check in was at 2 considering we have a 17 month old was a bit difficult. The biggest issues was it was 30 plus outside that day & the aircon was crap, it was pointing at our sons cot so he was freezing while the adults were boiling hot because the a/c was in the wrong place, the curtains were certainly not black out & right by the head of the bed was a 2 inch gap where the sun at 5 am started burning my head so not a great nights sleep. All of the Windows seemed to be broken & needed fixing & we're disgustingly dirty inside & out. Average hotel & in used to higher standards, sorry to say I do not think we will return to this establishment which is disappointing.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Docklands Private Collection of Apartments; City: Melbourne Victoria; Review: We are in room 1501 & you can tell it's a rental apartment from the ragged looking front door to the tap hanging off in the on suite. Not a bad size for 3 bedrooms but the balcony is very small & not enjoyable. No bath & we have a 2 year old. This apartment needs some tlc. Was handed a glad wrap bag of pods for the coffee machine which could have been done much nicer like in a presentable box when you arrived in the apartment, like most other decent areas do. 2 rolls of toilet paper in the whole apartment. No decent shops close by unless you have a Costco card, Coles is a 20 min walk or a $10 taxi ride. Aircon in the bedroom needs some serious attention. Unfortunately it feels more like a set & forget type of place rather than anything that makes you feel welcome which is quite disappointing. Have to say there are plenty of other places in Melbourne that would be more accommodating, maybe it's just the apartment we have been allocated but it's certainly not luxury or even in my top 50 places to stay. Saving grace is the nice view.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Northpoint Apartments; City: Port Macquarie New South Wales; Review: Check in was friendly & informative but reception was a bit dated. Had a great double parking space for the Audi Q7. Apartment was impressive on space but was basic and functional. Must have been a water leak as the carpet was soaked, near the balcony door. The apartment needs updating but it was almost spotlessly clean which was impressive. Main bed was small but comfortable, felt out of place in such a large room, needs a lounge seat or something. Room 902 had impressive views but I did request a travel cot which I was told was $22 extra which is not acceptable. Only had heating in the main lounge as it got very cold in the bedrooms which tropical visitors are not use too...... Great location & we enjoyed the stay but the fixtures & fittings need modernising.; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | hotelrec |
Given the interaction history of a user with hotels as follows:
Title: Hilton Santa Fe Buffalo Thunder; City: Santa Fe New Mexico; Review: The hotel facility itself is very nice. We had a room on the Executive floor and I thought it was very representative of what I would expect for a Hilton property. Our room had a fireplace and looked out over the "golf course". There are multiple dining options. Red Sage is their upscale restaraunt. We ate there one evening and found the food to be very good but the service was somehat uneven. This seemed to be a recurring theme during our week stay. Spent a lot of time waiting for wait staff in the Mica restaraunt and cocktail lounge. The Painted Parrot buffet provides a large selection of decent food at a reasonable price. The hotel also has an amazing collection of Native American art that is worth spending some time walking through the public areas to view it. We did not spend much time in the casino but it is mostly just slot machines and a handfull of table games. One of the reasons we booked this property was their advertised golf facilities. On a scale of 1-10 I would rate it about a 2.5. Hilton should be embarassed to have the Towa golf course associated with their name. The price they are charging for the conditions of that course are just stupid. I would call the front nine a cow pasture but that would be insulting innocent cows. Yes they ahve the only island green in New Mexico but a trick hole is nothing if the course itself is in terrible condition. The second nine is better but still nothing special at all. The advertised third nine had still not opened when we were there. If you want to play golf, skip this place and go play Black Mesa I(about 20 minutes North on the highway) Would I go back??? Yes but I would plan meals and activities differently; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Tradewinds Carmel; City: Carmel Monterey County California; Review: Stayed here for 4 nights. Room and bath room were very well done. Location is on a quiet street within walking distance of downtown for shopping and dining Staff was very friendly and accomodating. Breakfast is included but it is pastries, fruit, cereal, etc only. No resteraunt on site (but as I said earlier, plenty within easy walking distance. Only negative thing I can say is that we could always hear the people oin the room above us walking around and sometimes could here voices from the room next door. Overall we enjoyed it would recommend it to our friends; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Homewood Suites by Hilton Harrisburg West Hershey Area; City: Mechanicsburg Pennsylvania; Review: I grew up in the Camp Hill area and lived there until 10 years ago. I still have family there and our company has a plant there so I travel back there routinely for business and family reasons, This is always the first place I check for availability. Rooms are very nice and the staff really go out of their way to make you feel welcome. I am a HH Gold member and this property compares very well to some of their more upscale locations The only 'negative" thing I can say about it is that it seems to book up pretty regularly so when its a short notice trip I can't always get in. Guess there must be a lot of other people that feel the same way I do; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Clarion Hotel Conference Center; City: New Cumberland Pennsylvania; Review: I have stayed at this hotel several times over the last 10 years and it seems to be going steadily down hill. The halls reeked of cigarette smoke even though the area we were in was all non smoking rooms. The side entrance that was supposed to require a room key to enter didn't even have a lock mechanism in the door...just a sign and a place to swipe your key, If you were not out of the room by about 8:30, housekeeping never came back later in the day (happened two days while we were there). Did not eat at the property while we were there so I cant comment on food or food service; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: The Lodge at Pebble Beach; City: Pebble Beach Monterey County California; Review: In July my wife and I stayed here for 2 nights for our 35th wedding anniversary. Playing the Pebble Beach golf course has been something we have wanted to do for years. When I made the reservation, they asked if we were celebrating an occasion and I told them it was our 35th. When we got there they had upgraded us to an ocean front room right on the 18th fairway. 15 minutes after we were in the room there was a knock at the door and a ellman was there with a bbottle of champaign compliments of the hotel GM. Our room was absolutely perfect. Everthing was up to date and immaculate. During the two days we were there every single employee we met at resteraunts, the golf course, shops, etc was absolutely focused on customer satisfaction. This place is not cheap but for a really special occasion it is wonderful; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Inn St Gemme Beauvais; City: Sainte Genevieve Missouri; Review: This was our second time here. A really great place to stay. The rooms are all furnished with wonderful period furniture but all the modern comforts (AC, cable TV, Wifi, etc) A great place to stay while visiting St Genevive and the surrounding wine country; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hampton Inn Kansas City Village West; City: Kansas City Kansas; Review: I had stayed frequently at this property a number of years when a work project had me working at our nearby plant. This was the first time I ahd been back in a number of years. Nice property. The room and public areas were all cheery and clean. Breakfast was typical HI and more than adequate. All the employees that I interacted with were very friendly and helpful. It is really convenient that there are so many different dining options within a very short distance. I would recommend it; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Homewood Suites Orlando International Drive Convention Center; City: Orlando Florida; Review: I stay at a lot of Hampton Inns, Hilton garden Inns and Homewood Suites because they are very consistently modern, clean and reasonably priced. This has to be the largest HS I have ever stayed in. Don't know how many suites but it is large. They were undergoing renovations while I was there but I didn't notice any noise. I wasn't on the room much during the day though. The outdoor pool is closed during the renovations but the daytime temps were only mid 60s so I don't think many guests would have wanted to swim outside anyways Room furnishings and cleanliness were fine. The breakfast has plenty of hot and cold options. I did not do the evening receptions. There are a TON of places to eat within walking distance. They range from fast food to fine dining. You are right in the heart of the 'commercial district" close to the convention center so there is a lot of traffic to deal with.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Lodge at Old Kinderhook; City: Camdenton Lake of the Ozarks Missouri; Review: Buddy and I spent two nights here last week for a midweek golf trip. I was impressed with facility and staff. Rooms were very nice ...clean and modern Food at the Trophy room was very good and the service was excellent at both breakfast and dinner. The greens at the course had been aerated recently so that did affect putting but we never had to wait for anyone ahead of us or have anyone behind us so it was like having the course to ourselves. Other than that, the course was in very good shape and all of the golf staff were very friendly and helpful. The only thing I would caution someone about this place is that if you are planning a stay of more than 2-3 days...there is only the one option at the lodge for dinner and going "off property" will mean a drive that may be more than you may want to do. Otherwise this is a great place I would highly recommend; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Gaige House Ryokan; City: Glen Ellen Sonoma County California; Review: We stayed two nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had a creekside suite that was beautifully decorated and conveyed a very peaceful atmosphere. Breakfast both mornings was very good On our second evening I made the mistake of leaving an opened bag of beef jerky in the room. I had gotten it as a snack between wine tours. We left to go to dinner and when we returned there were literally hundreds of ants all over the table the jerky was on. I went to the front desk and a young lady quickly arrived with an organic ant/roach treatment that she proceeded to wipe down the desk and surrounding areas taking care of all the ants. We had not seen any previous to this and we did not see any the rest of the night or the next morning when we checked out. I will stress that this was my fault for leaving an open bag of food in a room so close to natural habitat. Overall I would give this place 5/5. Everyone we interfaced with was very friendly and professional and the property is beautiful. I would definitely recommend it; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Hornady Lock N Load Auto-Progressive Reloading Press; Brand: Hornady; Review: I've been reloading on a 70's vintage RCBS single stage press for years now, and went with the Lock-n-Load system over the Dillon 550. Very glad I did. The Hornady system offers good value for the money... I got the case feeder along with the press, and feel it really expands the utility of the system. Caveat emptor, however, in that there is a learning curve, or 'protocol' if you will, that must be mastered to really wring out this system. When it arrived I unboxed and followed the step by step directions on the DVD, which cover assembly, set up and operations. Pretty straight forward. Once it was assembled my first loading was .45 ACP, which went smoothly except for the primer slide and punch. Your press will have to be tweaked until it indexes correctly, and until you have mastered this adjustment, you will get rounds without primers, and as the round makes its way around the stations it will dribble grains of powder under the shell plate which will cause your primer punch to NOT retract fully or seat primers properly. When this occurs be ready to remove the primer punch and clean it, reinstall and then remove shellplate and brush off powder grains from the rotary table.The indexing pawl must be tweaked 'just so' and then the guide wire for the case feeder must also be adjusted, and the proper size "V block" installed in order to get cases to feed properly. Again it is a pain but once it is in the zone then you are good to go!I ended up polishing the primer slides (large and small primers) in order to get them to slide without binding. and if you are reloading military .223 brass remember to use a primer pocket tool to remove the military crimp, or you will not get your primers to seat in the case. Ask me how I know this. (lol)After learning the right way to set up and run this press, I can manage 300/hr of most pistol calibers-9mm, .38/357, 44 Special/Magnum. .45 Colt and .45ACP. Rifle rounds are a more painstaking and therefore slower process, but still capable of good production times. You will be needing dies/shellplates/powder through expanders in each caliber you reload for, and if you have the case feeder you will need the proper sized case feeder plate also, so extras DO add up.I'm glad I made the transition to a progressive press and recommend the Lock N Load, wich is a quality piece of equipment, and Hornady's customer service has helped me through the learning stage with mine.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Tri-Angle Sharpmaker; Brand: Spyderco; Review: This sharpening set is an excellent investment for your blades.

Title: Camp Chef Griddle Carry Bag; Brand: ; Review: Highly reccommended! Makes toting a 30 lb slab of cast iron a LOT easier. Also protects the griddle surface when stored. If you camp and have this griddle, you need this bag!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Birchwood Casey Tru-Oil Stock Finish Kit; Brand: Birchwood Casey; Review: I used this kit to refinish the furniture on a couple of 70's vintage firearms, and I am SOLD! Very simple and straight-forward process to use this kit. I added some 0000 steel wool and finer grit abrasive paper, and took some extra steps in sanding and staining, but this kit will produce a great result as is. The Tru-oil finish itself was amazing, Just wipe it on and let it dry. I used about 15 coats for my projects but good results can be obtained with 3 to 4 coats. The completed finish is a glossy, protective surface which seals out moisture while enhancing the character of the wood.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Bushnell Trophy TRS-25 Red Dot Sight Riflescope, 1 x 25mm (tilted front lens); Brand: Bushnell; Review: This is my third TRS-25. Great features, performance and price. Small and lightweight, battery life is better than a lot of other optics, most importantly to me, red dot is BRIGHT and visible in full sun. Really stands up to recoil, on a .308, 7.62x39 and latest is on a .22 rifle. If you need a $600 Aimpoint, then by all means get one, but if you want a rugged, reliable easy to see red dot for about $80.00 then this is the choice to make.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Avenir Classic Cruiser Saddle; Brand: Avenir; Review: Both my wife and I have put this seat on our cruiser bikes, we love the Brooks styling (without the $$$$ pricing of the English original), as it enhances and sets apart the bike, for a very reasonable sum.

Title: Intex Comfort Frame Airbed Kit, Queen; Brand: Intex; Review: Overall I have enjoyed this inflatable bed on camping trips, and it seems to be really heavy duty construction.

On all other facets of use, this bed is quite good.. but the inevitable leaking air leads to uncomfortable sleep during the nightm, especially while tent camping.; Rating: 3.0/5.0

Title: SukhoThai; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: I'm writing the draft of this review from inside this restaurant... we still haven't received the check and we finished eating 30 minutes ago. Took about 40 minutes to get our food. The Tom Kha (coconut cream with chicken) soup was actually exceptional. The pad Thai was also very good as well. The Bathing Rama was a little dry, could have used a little more peanut sauce. The place has a nice airy feeling and the music is not too loud, it's a great setting. However, the entire experience was ruined by the poor service. New Orleans could definitely use more Thai places and I really hope the owners of this restaurant fire their manager and hire someone who understands the basics about service. Most of the waiters would stand around the drink area and do nothing. No one is manning the host booth. It's called hire a cute hostess and add 2 more waiters on the weekdays. Done!; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: The Rum House; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: This place is awesome, one of my favorite restaurants that is always a hit. Get the Taco Trifecta, such a great deal. All the tacos are good, but the best are Chili Glazed Shrimp, Calypso Beef & the Jerk Chicken. The ice tea is exceptional. Place has great atmosphere, service is always good, great place to watch a game because they have a projector. Great location.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Barcelona Tapas; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: The place is designed like a shotgun house, it keeps going further back. Bar is on your left as you enter which is welcoming, the decor brings you into a small Spanish town and it's peaceful with dim light and candles on each table.. Vibe is quiet with Spanish guitar music filling the room. Get there after 7:30 when the place picks up a bit. Ordered the Garlic Tomato bread with mozzarella which was very delicious. It had mint leaves mixed in which gave it a fresh taste. The garlic shrimp with melted Brie was a little too cheesy, the eggplant casserole was OK. The best part was definitely the flan which was the best I have had anywhere, definite must if you like flan. This place is a work in progress, the staff was very courteous, fast and asked for our honest opinion on everything which was nice. They plan to expand the back to have an outdoor patio which is a must have for a tapas environment. Will definitely go back and try the Paella which looks amazing. What I'd like to see is a live guitarist on weekends, this would really be a big draw and bring in people. Also, the restaurants that are tucked away on Dublin St should work with the city and neighborhood to make something cool in the neutral ground. Turn it into a nice square with a gazebo and lights... make it a meeting place for people going to eat in the area, right now it's too dark and doesn't make the location appealing.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Fresco Cafe and Pizzeria; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: Place is under new ownership. They changed the recipe for the Caesar salad and that WAS one of the best things on the menu. The pasta dishes have also suffered. This used to be one of our favorite places to go to get a good Italian meal and sit outside and enjoy, not anymore. If your the new management, bring back some of the old menu items!; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Salú Bistro and Bar; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: Since discovering this gem, I have gone back numerous times. Typically the price adds up quickly at Tapas places, not so here. The dishes are very reasonable and some of the best Tapas dishes in New Orleans. The atmosphere is always fun, outside is enjoyable in good weather, service is very good and it's clean. Great place to take a date! Favorite dishes, GRILLED SKIRT STEAK sliced over a Brandy-Wild Mushroom Cream and for dessert, CHOCOLATE GANACHE COVERED PROFITEROLES.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: New Orleans Hamburger & Seafood Co; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: I'm so glad NO Hamburger & Seafood put a location uptown. It's the perfect location. The inside was completely redone from when this used to be Cannon's restaurant. It's fun, prices are what you come to know with this chain, Thin-fried catfish is the best item on the menu, free soft serve ice cream, unlimited refills on drinks, great bar area... and in the morning they have coffee and beignet's next door. (and free Wifi) Great place for the kids, if I ever need a quick bite to eat... I go here!; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Like a good friend, its nice to ask us to stay... and your house needs some cleaning. With a coffee shop, its the small things that count. A few suggestions... get a fan to clear out the burning oil smoke that lingers in the morning hours... add more tables, especially for two people, tighten up the screws on your tables... nothing more annoying then sipping coffee, reading your newspaper and the table wobbles... add tables outside with some coverings and please please stock more chocolate-almond pastries.. the guy in front of me came in a cleared you out.... there went my breakfast!; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Supreme Muffler Shop; City: Metairie, LA; Review: I was recommended here by C.A.R.S., the auto service place off Causeway Blvd and Veterans. The guys do great work for an honest price and don't dick you around like most corner auto shops. They installed a flex pipe on my Camry in 30 minutes at 5% of what the dealer was going to charge.

Title: Complete Automotive Repair and Service; City: Metairie, LA; Review: Took my Camry to Lakeside Toyota for the first year after moving to New Orleans because I didn't know any trusted mechanics yet. In a desperate search to get as far from Lakeside Toyota as possible, I found CARS and here's why CARS rocks! 1) I got sick of the dealer ripping me off 2) All the mechanics at CARS used to work at the Toyota/Lexus dealer, so they know foreign cars! 3) The front counter is staffed by the nicest ladies in the auto repair biz who give you the straight dope. They arn't going to charge you hundreds of dollars to replace a filter or fill up your fluids. This place is hands down the best Auto service shop in the New Orleans area. The only down side is they are sometimes super busy and you gotta call ahead to get an appt, but this is actual nice because when you do come in, they give you one-on-one attention. Watch out for the construction on causeway. CARS is right next to Whole Foods which is a plus.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: St. Patrick's Church; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: If you're visiting New Orleans for a convention or just here for fun, St. Patrick's is the Catholic Church in the warehouse district. This church was completed in 1840 and at one time was designated Pro Cathedral. It is one of the most beautiful churches in New Orleans and stands as a symbol of the rich Catholic history in this city. The pastor, Fr Stanley Klores, is leading the way in shaping this vibrant parish, dedicated to fostering the authentic teaching of the gospel and the traditions of the Catholic Church. The priests that celebrate Mass on the weekends provide some of the best homilies in the city. The music ministry is deeply rooted in keeping alive the tradition of sacred music, offering a mixture of Gregorian, Latin and contemporary hymns. The recently renovated organ, along with the majestic interior, provides a focused setting for prayer and spiritual renewal.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: High Hat Cafe; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: When passing by this quaint corner resturant on Ferret St, seeing the 50s retro tile floors, the dark brown painted booths, the painted arm height stripe that circles the walls (think 50s high school) and the ceiling fans rotating above, you can't help but be taken back into that realm of the classic diner. However, this is just a facade and unfortunately so. While I stopped in for Sunday lunch and chomped down on good helping of the pork roast with cold slaw, what I was really craving was a generous stack of pancakes, topped with maple syrup, a side of eggs, bacon and why not grits. Wake up!... What? This isn't a breakfast place? Your telling me... It should be! Everything about this place screams chocolate malt shake, toast and hashbrowns and why not a cherry coke. What Ferret (really anywhere in Uptown) needs is a diner that serves up a little bit of everything but most especially a 'breakfast menu served all day' sorta place. While my lunch was ok, it left me acking for more. If you're the owners of this fine establishment, please consider adding a full breakfast menu and open early on sat and sun. It will be standing room only! Uptown sorely lacks good affordable breakfast places (I can name only two) but both are not near Ferret. Despite this, this High Hat is a fun little place to enjoy some great food. Stop in and check it out!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Kyoto; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: Kyoto reminds me of one of those cozy little sushi joints in NY on the corner. The atmosphere is welcoming, especially the small tables in the back. I like that. The sushi is really good too. The only reason this place didn't get 5 stars was well... the rolls are just too big. I've never had California Rolls that are 2 inches wide. The Rock'n'Roll was like 3 inches wide. How are you supposed to pick that up with chop sticks let alone dip it in soy sauce then into your mouth? Really... you kinda need a knife to portion up the roll which is kinda counter intuitive for sushi. The Edamame was actually very good and I like the big glasses of ice tea. For Uptown sushi, definitely try Kyoto!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Acme Lock Company; City: Jefferson, LA; Review: Had my locks re-keyed here. Best price around, only $8.50 per cylinder which is great! They did the job and made 2 keys in about 10 minutes while I waited. Lots of people working in the shop. Not open on the weekends.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Drye Supply; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: A contractor who did work at my house told me about this place and it's a hidden gem! It's basically a discount hardware store; they carry most things you'd find in a smaller Ace hardware type store; all the basic tools and accessories that any home owner would need. As well they stock a good assortment of tools from major names like Ryobi and Bosch. As well, they carry appliances that are generally 50% off what you would pay at Home Depot or Lowes. It's worth checking them out. I go here almost every week because you never know what will come in as their inventory changes often.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hurwitz Mintz; City: Metairie, LA; Review: If you're in the market to buy furniture, skip this place. Seriously, it's basically an over priced Rooms 2 Go. For some reason all the furniture is 'bedazzled'.. I'm not joking... It just looks cheap. There is however a ray of light in the middle of this poor furniture maze... It's call 'Junior Mintz'... Which in case you didn't pick up on it in the name is the kids section. This is where the actual furniture is located. There are more cool styles and desgins in this section than anywhere else in the store. If all my kids furniture weren't handmedowns, I might have considered picking up a piece at Junior Mintz. Seriously, you should go to this place on rainy days to hang out or rendevous with the wife after work just to lounge around. Only go to this place for Junior Mintz. Don't say I didn't warn you!; Rating: 1.0/5.0

Title: Doerr Furniture; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: This is the best place in New Orleans to by furniture... Hands Down! The service is amazing, not pushy at all. They have excellent selection; every time I have stopped in looking for a specific piece, I walked away with an amazing buy. The furniture is quality American made from the best in North Carolina. You will like this place. It's a great place to visit for design ideas as well. This is where all the film set designers go for staging. A New Orleans staple!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Mizado Latin Kitchen; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: My wife & I went here for our anniversary dinner; it was a pleasant surprise and not something I expected this close to Old Metairie. The valet was nice since it the rain was torrential. For drinks my wife had the special which was a grapefruit based margarita, I went with the Cucumber & Jalapeno Margarita. Her's was perfect for summer, refreshing. Mine was excellent, had a great kick. To start things off, ordered the Queso Fundido (very nice), the Carne Tacos & the Salmon Tiradito. Everything was great and especially the pico and salsa. The tortillas are exactly what you find in Mexico which are always amazing. One thing that I couldn't get over was the vibe or setting of this place. The inside decor could be placed in Monterrey or Mexico City just fine... I felt like I was back in Mexico again at some of the trendy joints that you would find dotting colleges in those cities. What didn't make sense was the music selection. The best way to describe; bad 90's dance music. The bass and kick drums were not welcome for dinner. I felt like I was back in NYC waiting outside a club to get in and just hearing the rumble of bass. Dance music is fun in a dance club... not when I'm eating dinner. Look, this is a Mexican / Latin infused experience... the music took me away from Mexico and into nighttime bowling at the Colonial. Do everyone a favor... take us on a Mexican journey, at least for a few hours (as best you can being in New Orleans) and go on Spotify and search for this public playlist: Mizado Just play this or pop in Cafe del Mar Chillstep Unlimited, Ibiza del Mar - Cafe Chill House Vol 4, Cafe Latin Lounge del Mar Vol 2. Shoot, for fun... put on some Los Amigos Invisibles... the Metairie ladies don't know Spanish! You'll be golden if you do! Music can have a beat, but it needs to be balanced and not drown out the experience. Good luck!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Casa Borrega; City: New Orleans, LA; Review: First, I have a lot of respect for entrepreneurs that locate their business on Oretha Castle Haley Blvd today. Any effort to restore this area to its former glory, if not something even better, should be applauded because with the right development, this area could be something very special. Second, I'm somewhat biased when it comes to Mexican food because I've spent enough time in Mexico and grew up in Texas so I know the difference between authentic Mexican and Tex-Mex. Third, 5 years ago getting good Tex-Mex or Mexican food in New Orleans was just not happening (please don't chime in saying, what about Superior Grill? Look, I went there once and after they charged me $11 for the standard margarita in a plastic cup and served me fajitas that came with 3 tortillas; I never went back). Today, Mexican food in New Orleans is a different story so there is competition but at the same time I'm always glad to at least have options. Now my review. The decor is unique and interesting, yes this is very true. Moving on to the service. Look, don't look surprised if they just say, 'how bout that table?' OK, we've all been to places like this so deal with it. Next, the Menu. Libations are the first thing on the menu so you would think that 'Oh hey, they place a very high regard for their drinks here, they should be good!' No, that's not the case at all. They place them first so that you'll order a crazy expensive drink, get a little tipsy, then not realize how much your final bill is. (just wait, more on this later). Ordered the House and Cadillac margaritas. $11 and $14 respectively. You'd think that for $3 more, the Cadillac would be something unique and exciting. Not only was it neither, but the bar tender had to yell out to our waiter which drink was which because the Cadillac looks exactly like the house margarita. Huh... ok, maybe the presentation is the same, but I'm sure the flavors will just knock our socks off. We couldn't taste any difference in the drinks except that the House was solid tequila. On the scale of 1 to 10 of margaritas I've had in life, these ranked around a 4 or maybe 5. Loading a margarita with more tequila doesn't really make the drink 'great' unless you're a tourist in Mazatlan at senior frogs and you just want to get loaded. Yeah, I've done that... but I don't want to do this on a Saturday afternoon in New Orleans. The Food. Since we arrived in between lunch and dinner, we wanted something light and simple; a small plate perhaps. Ordered the tacos and guacamole. The tacos were authentic Mexican tacos; ones you'd find in food trucks at 2AM in Mexico City or Monterrey. These tacos were on par with the best. Good job. The Guac was very good as well and went great with their salsa which has a smokey vibe to it, very filling. When we got; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Carrabba's Italian Grill; City: Metairie, LA; Review: Carrabbas is one of my all time favorites from growing up out of state, however, this location sorely missed the mark. Caesar salads were drenched in way too much dressing and the bread wasn't delivered until well after our meal was served. Bread tasted like it had been frozen, not at all its usual fresh. At the end of the meal, we requested go cups with iced tea (my wife didnt get one refill throughout the meal) and the waiter replied that that the shipment didnt come in. It seems as though there is a management issue With this location which hopefully can be remedied.; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Rock-n-Sake Bar & Sushi; City: Metairie, LA; Review: First, accolades are in order for the designer of this space. It was done well. The space feels light years away from a gas station and opted not to retain any of the gas station features; good move. Second, turn the music down. If you are trying to compete with Mizado for who can play their music louder... I think you won. However, while exceedingly loud music at dinner is annoying and unnecessary, Mizado's space is much larger; so while the concept of loud dinner music doesn't work in either place, the larger venue at Mizado makes it seem less loud. It's not a club, I don't need to feel my seat vibrate from bass. This isn't Cafe del Mar. Three, the food is delicious. Some of the higher dollar rolls are at a ridiculous price point. The Upside down role in particular. In general, everything on the menu is on the north side of expensive. If your OK spending $50 for 2 people... no drinks... not including tip. Then this is your kinda place. The owners were very smart to drop this place in the heart of old Metairie. Trendy sushi joints are hot right now.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Don Jose's Grill; City: Kenner, LA; Review: Born and raised in Texas, I always lower my expectations when trying Mexican food outside of Texas which can sometimes be a painful endeavor. We chose Don Jose's because there were no spots in the parking lot of our first choice (which to be honest is in the worst spot, sharing a lot with another restaurant and a convenience store that I'm 99% sure is where most of Kenner's drug dealers pick up their product from - Watch The Seven Five on Netflix and you'll know what I mean). We were craving Mexican and it just so happens there are quite a few options in Kenner and Don Jose's was right down the street. As we pulled up, a reality of the burbs set in. It's not even 6 PM and the parking lot is full. This isn't New Orleans where people finish their pre-dinner bar drinks around 7PM. Duly noted. The vibe of this place isn't bad. Its good size and has lots of seating options. Service was good. Free chips / salsa is always good. (PLAY SOUND OF CAR SLAMMING ON BRAKES). Man, these chips are stale.. is this salsa? It takes like Old El Paso... which is sadly as far from real salsa as you can get. Ok, don't panic... you even at plenty if places that skimp on the comps... My test for any first time Mexican food is to go with a staple.. if they can do that right, then they have street cred. My staple of choice.. Chicken enchiladas. Honestly, it wasn't that bad; the beans and the rice; well done. Overall, it was OK. It was clean, went through OK and was easy. It's not a very 'authentic' experience, but its OK; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | yelp |

Title: 4R Playa Park; City: Salou Costa Dorada Province of Tarragona Catalonia; Review: Stayed at the Playa Park with my boyfriend from 13th to 20th September. It was our first holiday away together and it was one of the best holidays i've had, the hotel made that. Can't believe the other reviews from people who have stayed there around the same time as us. On arrival we were greeted by the friendly reception staff and got straight into our room which was spacious enough and had a great view of the pool area and the beach. There was daily entertainment by the pool area for children as well as a mini disco at night before the main show which would start at 10pm. The shows ranged from a Polynesian show to a Karaoke night and a Flamenco show. The entertainment team at the hotel could not have been more involved and the children staying at the hotel at the time of our stay seemed well catered for. We stayed half board and was a bit aprehensive after staying at other hotels with a poor quality of selection but every morning for breakfast there was a large selection of fresh fruit, champagne, breads, cakes, cereals, cheeses and meats as well as a cooked selection. Then in the evening there was an even bigger selection of meats, pastas, vegetables as well as a theme night on a Sunday evening. The only item consistently on the menu every night was chips, so plenty to choose from and well prepared. The bar staff were also very friendly. Can't qiute understand the complaints about the hotel being on a hill, it is on a slught incline but nothing that you wouln't experience at home, and the beautiful surroundings make you forget about this. The hotel is around a 5/10 minute walk from the main beach and shopping stretch but there is a smaller beach just down from the hotel which can be reached by some steep steps OR by a path which is less steep. All in all a great hotel, can't pick any faults!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Cala Font Hotel; City: Salou Costa Dorada Province of Tarragona Catalonia; Review: Hotel was very clean and the room sizes were adequate. However if you like to be in the centre of things this hotel isn't for you as it is a good 5 minute drive into Salou centre although there is a smaller beach at the bottom of the hotel. Usual dash for sunbeds first thing in the morning. Also the food was somewhat lacking although there was plenty of it and was always piping hot, however we stayed for two weeks and at the start of the second week the food became very repetitive.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Victorian House; City: Glasgow Scotland; Review: Stayed for one night with my partner for a gig in glasgow. Close to city cente, shops, restaurants within walking distance. Quiet little hotel that did the job: was clean enough, although looked like it could do with a lick of paint but the room was spacious enough and the bathroom was a decent size. Maybe a bit pricy for what it is.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Dalmore Lodge Guest House; City: Edinburgh Scotland; Review: Stayed with my partner for one night in Edinburgh to attend a gig. Found parking on-site easily accessable as there are spaces available both to the front and rear of the hotel. Room was spacious and comfortable and although situated on a busy main road we had a pleasant night as noise from this street is almost non-existent. Cannot comment on the breakfast at the hotel as we did not use this facility but overall a great hotel, friendly welcome and would return again in the future.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: 4R Playa Park; City: Salou Costa Dorada Province of Tarragona Catalonia; Review: Beginning if i stayed at the same hotel as some other reviewers. We stayed at the Playa Park for two weeks half board in August having stayed there for the first time last year and was pleased to find the hotel continuing its high standards. Cannot fault the hotel at all: rooms cleaned daily, fresh towels/beds changed etc, friendly staff and only 5 minutes away from the nearest beach. The hotel is situated a 5/10 minute walk from the Salou's main beach and shopping area meaning that at night the hotel is quiet enough for those with younger children. Good, well structured children's entertainment with a range of pool activities, swimming, wii events and a mini disco at night. There is also a range of evening entertainment generally starting at 10pm which include a flamenco show, a brazilian show, karaoke and magicians. Cannot fault the hotel staff at all: reception, bar and restaurant staff were all friendly and willing to help with any problems. We were always able to find something ti eat in the restaurant with a selection of salads, breads, potato and pasta dishes as well as a selection of fish and usually some form of roast at night. Breakfast consisted of cakes, hot food such as sausages, egg and bacon, yougurts, fruit and cereal athough the milk is UHT. There are also themed nights on a sunday which roatates between Mexican and Chinese nights as well as a Gala night on a Friday. Not too sure about this "hill or mountain" as some people seem to call it, the hotel is located on a slight incline which those with prams or wheelchairs may struggle with but it is certainly does not reflect badly on the hotel. Plenty to do in and around Salou such as the House of Illusion and Portaventura theme park as well as daily trips available to Barcelona zoo, Nou Camp stadium and free time shopping in the city.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Neato Robotics XV-12 Automatic Vacuum Cleaner; Brand: Neato Robotics; Review: Very poor performance overall and customer service is downright painful to interact with. On vacuuming performance scale, this little robot does an excellent job with picking up dirt, however, it gets itself stuck far more often than a comparable Roomba. The worst part is the electronics and reliability of the machine. I've sent it back at least 3 times for repair/replacement and finally it just stopped working, solid green light, no response at all.

Title: Jessica Simpson Women's Mandalaye Ballet Flat; Brand: ; Review: Size 11 too big, size 10 giving me blisters-too small (design flaw of cutting off fabric harshly at mid-toe), padding isn't good enough to hold up for a half day on my feet, perhaps 10.5 would be good but not practical, designed apparently just for show. They are probably best when wearing in an office, not for walking around at a job or for recreational purposes, uncomfortable for an active person. Unfortunately, as cute as they are, they aren't flattering when worn, try Amazon for other flats with back straps when looking for a nice flattering flat.; Rating: 1.0/5.0

The heel is high, at least for my taste, but this might be the most comfortable higher heeled sandal on the market!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: G by Guess Archy - Brown Multi Fabric; Brand: ; Review: I bought these boots when they went on sale as an outdoor/indoor alternative to slippers. They are very warm and fashionable. They feel a tad small, but maybe I am used to boots fitting a little larger than shoes. I am already wearing them around the house (even though it is a balmy 62 outside), and I will try a spot test to scotch guard them for outdoor use. They look cute will any type of pant (probably skirts as well) and can't wait to wear them around town! Overall, happy with this purchase.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Rubie's Costume Co Women's Minion Face Hooded Costume Dress; Brand: ; Review: I bought this to wear while doing balloon animals at children's parties since I am a balloon artist and wanted a cute top to wear for ballooning (too bad this can't replace scrubs as I am a nurse in plain clothing at my other job), but I ended up wearing it for a Zumba workout on Halloween where it held up so well - got complimented right as I walked in the door and I can't wait to wear it for my next balloon job - might just break it out every week! For reference, I am 5' 9" 170lbs size 12 and the medium ended up fitting me like a glove. I was sweating to the tunes, but the top didn't get drenched like a normal costume would and it was light-weight, but not see through - I wore a sports-bra top underneath with my reebok pants. The hood stays in place while up too, it isn't too tight or too loose (not flopping on your back when down). I loved it so much for my workout, the skirt moved around perfectly with the Zumba moves, I think I may buy a second one, especially at this price!! All in all a great purchase!!! (I also made my own Minion shoes ... if you buy a pair of white canvas sneakers and some paint you can use Pinterest to help make your own as well!); Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: The Treebridge Hotel; City: Middlesbrough North Yorkshire England; Review: Went for mother in laws 65th birthday. Ordered lobster paella (£19). Out came a small portion of paella with only 2 small pieces of lobster in the full dish. Mother-in-law & brother-in-law both had paella too & both felt the same. Husband ordered a small chicken Parmesan which also very kindly came accompanied by a dead wasp on the plate. A replacement meal was quickly sorted & meal was deducted from the final bill. Service was efficient but the cost of the final very expensive bill was not reflected in the food.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Black Bull Inn; City: Pickering North Yorkshire England; Review: Pass this place most weekends & always intrigued by the roadside sign claiming to make 'the best Yorkshire puddings'. Booked for Sunday carvery after reading online reviews. Booked but found parking an issue. 'Reserved' was a post it note with our name scribbled on it & stuck on table. Cramped, awkward & average food. Had to wait ages at the bar for both food & drinks. Only good point was kids are their meals.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Novotel York Centre Hotel; City: York North Yorkshire England; Review: We checked in & were pleasantly pleased with reception/bar/lobby area, sadly first impressions were lost when we entered our 'executive' room. Terrible decor, dirty carpet & blankets on the beds for the kids that looked like they were for a dog. Still at a loss as to what part was 'executive'. We paid a lot of money for a room which I can only describe as akin to a bedsit. So tired & dated with none of the luxurious touches you would expect from a 4* city centre hotel. After a long day shopping with two small kids we decided to eat in the hotel restaurant. After pleasant drinks in the lobby we took a seat in said restaurant. On offer was the lobby snack bar menu or a set 3 course meal. We opted for the latter. With only three tables occupied including ours the atmosphere was somewhat lacking so we hoped our food would improve the mood. It didn't - tasteless prawn cocktail that was so cold it set my teeth on edge, steak pie with no gravy (we asked for some & were presented with a gravy made from granules & a boiled kettle) & mushroom ravioli which was the best of a bad bunch. The kids (ages3&7) who aren't fussy wouldn't eat theirs either. Dessert - molten chocolate pudding. It was molten (as in melted) but it was cold, I can't even get my head around this one!? Breakfast was reasonable but couldn't compensate for the room or the previous evenings meal. One good point - the staff were nice & friendly but other than that the full thing was a shambles & I won't be returning.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Best Western Burn Hall Hotel; City: Huby North Yorkshire England; Review: I accompanied my mother in law who was meeting friends. We checked in, decent sized double room, clean & tidy, then headed into York to get some lunch & do some shopping. Once back at the hotel we found a nice table in the hotel bar (the full downstairs area of the hotel was surprisingly well decorated - stylish, light & airy & well spaced out). We enjoyed a few drinks in a very nice & relaxed atmosphere before taking our table in the restaurant for our evening meal. The environment in the restaurant was slightly different to the bar as it was busy & noisy with a lot of diners but not in a bad way. I got the mussels to start which were lovely & tasty & I got the pork for main which was tasty but slightly too salty. The others seemed happy with their meal too. After eating we headed back to the bar area for a few more drinks before heading to bed. The beds were very comfortable but the room was too hot! Both me & mother in law were roasted all night! Breakfast was simple, serve yourself buffet, perfectly acceptable but very little choice. All in all, for the money we paid, & the service we had I think I'd stay again if I was in the area.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hard Days Night Hotel; City: Liverpool Merseyside England; Review: After hearing on the city explorer tour that this is the only hotel dedicated to The Beatles we walked past & asked the concierge if we could have a little nosey. He was lovely - really friendly, chatty & welcoming (I didn't get his name but it was whoever was working at 2.15pm on sat 25th!). Inside we had a brief walk around - despite it being busy its was strangely very quiet, it was very tastefully decorated- great for Beatles fans.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Liverpool; City: Liverpool Merseyside England; Review: Booked to stay on Saturday night, then decided to come through on the Friday so stayed in two rooms. Had interconnecting rooms on Friday which worked lovely when settling the kids. Stayed in a suite on the Saturday which was very nice. All the staff were lovely, really helpful & friendly. We had to check out of one room to check into the other & reception kindly kept our belongings & transferred them to the other room for us. We ate in the room on Saturday night as the kids were shattered but reception kindly sent us plates & cutlery to the room with the very nice concierge. Breakfast was nice & relaxed & despite it being busy it was very quiet & peaceful. There was a good variety of food & everything was hot & again the staff were lovely & helpful. A very nice hotel, with even nicer staff - we had a great stay, thank you!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Pierre Vacances Village Fuerteventura Origo Mare; City: Lajares La Oliva Fuerteventura Canar; Review: Booked for family Christmas away for the first ever time so was apprehensive. Landed at airport - all ok. Got on coach - all ok. That's as good as it gets. Arrived at the resort which looked like it had been dumped on the moon, no sign of civilisation anywhere around. Taken to 'villa' on a buggy with the luggage but everyone else had to walk. Knew as soon as we entered said villa that we'd made an epic mistake. 4 star apparently. Pictures show otherwise. Ate the buffet evening meal with various wild stray cats that were happily roaming around eating whatever food had been dropped. No life guards on any pools. Only pool in use was the adult only one - great when there's four kids. The villa was dirty, broken gate, hole in the bath, uprooted plants, no patio furniture, football pitch & tennis court with no nets, need I go on. Needless to say we flew straight back home the next day. Misleading internet pictures & write ups. Terrible experience; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: The Dun Cow Inn; City: Sedgefield County Durham England; Review: Have enjoyed eating here for years but have only had Sunday lunch once, years ago, so decided to give it another go. It's important to make a reservation as it gets packed. Shown to our table & looked at menu which had a great choice on it. A very relaxed environment, subtle music playing in the background & friendly, professional staff. I got prawns to start & hubby got the lamb kofta tortilla. Given a bread bowl with our drinks while we waited for starters. They came quickly, lots of prawns & Marie Rose sauce for me & kofta got thumbs up 👍🏻. Hubby & I both ordered the roast sirloin for main (served rare) which was beautiful as were the accompaniments. 8yr old got a child's lamb dinner which went down well & 3yr old got plaice goujons with homemade chips. His portion was particularly big! The food was enjoyed by all & the bill was very, very reasonable. This place is always reliable for a good meal & Sunday lunch was no exception. A very enjoyable afternoon, thanks!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Felmoor Park; City: Morpeth Northumberland England; Review: Booked this by chance off a Facebook post offering a nights stay for a reasonable price. Packed a bag, jumped in the car & made the 45min journey, arriving around 5. Kids straight in (massive) hot tub where they spent the rest of the evening! Decor of this place is lovely & very clean too. A welcome pack with a fresh loaf, wine, donuts, milk & jam was a nice touch. Lovely rooms & lovely surroundings with BBQ, patio furniture, sun loungers.... with better weather this would be beautiful to spend a summers evening. Few niggles but only picky ones TBH, volume of TV couldn't be adjusted & it was really loud! Also some of the cutlery wasn't clean but most disappointing was the fact the hot tub wasn't working the next morning despite us following the instructions & covering it up after use which upset the kids. However I wouldn't let these things put me off, like I said in better weather this place would be fab & the cabin itself is absolutely beautiful.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Cameron House Lodges; City: Alexandria Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park Scotland; Review: We visited Cameron House Lodges with another family for a week in October. The lodge was clean & tidy & had nice decor, with a nice, big outdoor terrace with a patio set. The kitchen had most of the basic utensils but I was surprised there was no welcome hamper. We have stayed in quite a few Lodges over the years & this is the first time we've stayed in one where there hasn't been a hamper. There was a bit of wear & tear within the lodge (worn carpets, chipped/scuffed door frames) but that's to be expected with the amount of people using them. Liked that the bed in the living area was folded away to look like a large cupboard rather than having a sofa bed. None of the TV's had a DVD player so my plan of settling the kids with a good movie was scuppered! We didn't have a loch view but that didn't matter, the surrounding scenery was nice enough. Was a little bit disappointed that the double bed in the master bedroom was actually two singles pushed together but there was nothing that wouldn't put me off coming here again.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Cameron Club Lodges at The Carrick; City: Arden Alexandria Loch Lomond and The Trossachs Natio; Review: Came to look around a lodge with a view to purchasing a timeshare on one. The lodge was beautiful inside, really stylish & modern with a homely, cosy feel too. Sorry but it goes flat after this. I can only describe the vibe/feel to the grounds & hotel as 'soulless'. It was eerily quiet. Everything was all too focused on the golf & spa. It didn't come across as being child friendly at all within the hotel. The drinks took ages to arrive despite it being really, really quiet. There wasn't a soul in the indoor pool & the rooftop infinity pool is, essentially, a hot tub. Sorry but 'all fur coat....' is the best way I can sum this up.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Cameron House on Loch Lomond; City: Alexandria Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park Sc; Review: Basing this review on the hotel alone & not the Lodges, one of which we stayed in. The hotel is very dark & gothic like but it suits it. The staff are all very professional & efficient. The pool is great for both children & adults, we spent hours in there. There are loads of other facilities too - squash court, 3 restaurants, gym, Segway lessons, sea plane, aviary, arcade, children's club, golf course, bike hire. Obviously some of these come at an extra cost but the option's there. We loved chilling in the Great Scots Bar - great atmosphere & a beautiful outdoor terrace. Would definitely come back here; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Angel at Topcliffe Hotel; City: Thirsk North Yorkshire England; Review: We stayed here whilst attending a wedding at a venue nearby. Room was clean & tidy & the staff were friendly when we checked in. (One gripe - the tap in the room only ran hot, not the best when you’re brushing your teeth!). We had a drink in the bar just before it closed when we returned from the wedding. No too badly priced & a relaxed environment. Breakfast was very good. A choice of cereals, pastries, fruit & yoghurt & juices. The menu had a good choice but we went for the full English. Well cooked, hot & tasty. We would come back here again if we were in the area.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Vampire Defanged, The: How the Embodiment of Evil Became a Romantic Hero; Author: Visit Amazon's Susannah Clements Page; Review: I wish I had looked at the info about this book a little closer.

Title: No Cash? No Problem!: Learn How To Get Everything You Want in Business and Life, Without Using Cash; Author: Visit Amazon's Dave Wagenvoord Page; Review: Wagenvoord and Pervez have written an excellent work on a cashless system. I don't like to use the term Barter because I believe that this topic as written is more nuanced and has more information that deals with the transactional process as a life way. I find this book interesting and worthwhile on several fronts. As a Liberal Studies major, I think this would have been an excellent sourcebook for a class studying economics as well as a good recommended reading in a business class dealing with commerce. I think this is more than a "get rich quick" or "bartering book" well worth picking up and delving into. You may not look at commerce the same way again; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Path of Paganism: An Experience-Based Guide to Modern Pagan Practice; Author: Visit Amazon's John Beckett Page; Review: The Path of Paganism: An Experience-Based Guide to Modern Pagan Practice by John Beckett is one of the finest books on Paganism I have ever read. I know that this sounds like Hyperbole but there is much to distinguish this book from the numerous other books I have read on Paganism. (And all from this publisher) I want to mention Llewellyn because for many years they were the publishers of many pithy works concerning the Pagan Path. Sometimes the books were very pithy and not worth anyones time. In this case, they have made quite a departure and have garnered something that should be moved from the new age/occult section to the religion section. No nonsense, and very clear this books is what I wish I would have read when I first started my pagan path. The writing is to the point and does not waste your time with any excess text. I have often looked for works that I can give to non-pagan relatives so that they might be able to clearly have Paganism defined for them. This book is the book that I would put in my Library and know it is an excellent resource for students who want to get an example of the beliefs of the Pagan path. While there are some great works on paganism (Drawing Down the Moon is one such example) this book particularly has the distinction of being easy to read, with a clear format and a language that can be read by anyone -without extraneous exclusive jargon. If you want to read a book on the path that is refreshing and also enlightening, this is the one you should choose. It also would be a welcome addition to any private Library that wants to have a definitive work that can explain Paganism to others.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: A Family Affair (Truth in Lies) (Volume 1); Author: Visit Amazon's Mary Campisi Page; Review: Loved this book. The characters were well developed and believable.

Title: Bad Karma; Author: Visit Amazon's Deborah Blum Page; Review: The author went into great detail about the characters mental illness but it was necessary to understand what was going on in his head.

You knew what was going to happen but it kept me coming back until the end.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Porto Azzurro; City: St Paul s Bay Island of Malta; Review: We visit Malta twice a year normally in the low season for a bit of peace and quiet which without exception we find at Porto Azzurro.Alexis sorts out our booking for us and we find her friendly and efficient.All the staff are equally helpful.We enjoy self-catering and find the apartments suitably equipped for our needs. In fact, if there is anything not in the apartment you ownly have to ask for it to be provided.The public areas are bright and welcoming and the bar is well stocked. Any noise from the bar did not reach the apartments so our peace was not spoiled. I also found the surrounding area very much to my taste with opportunity for walking, both rural and urban, easy or strenuous with much Roman and prehistory in the area.We have already booked our next visit.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

The mini market has changed since our previous visits and is much improved and carries a good range of goods. Public areas are clean and bright. This area is quiet with plenty of opportunity for walking either in the country or along the sea front to Bugibba. Well worth a visit.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Porto Azzurro; City: St Paul s Bay Island of Malta; Review: It is always a pleasure to return to the Porto Azzurro for another week of peace and quiet. On arrival checking in is quick and easy and pleasant. The studio apartment is well appointed with all that is needed for a self catering stay and is bright and clean. The view from the balcony is one of countryside with a side view of the sea. From the bottom of the road (50m)there are busses to many different places on the island. The on site minimarket is well stocked, the fitness room is well equipped for those wanting a bit of exercise and both swimming pools (indoor and out) are sparklingly clean. Any problems or queries will be solved by the friendly face of Alexis who is to be found in reception each morning . You feel that she takes a real interest in you as a person. I am looking forward to a return visit next year.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: AX Sunny Coast Resort Spa; City: Qawra Island of Malta; Review: Having stayed here a number of times over the years it is good to see ongoing maintenance and improvements during the winter months. It is pleasantly quiet out of season but well within reach of the more active area of Buggiba if that is want you want. On the downside it is a shame to see the closure of the on-site minimart. The staff are friendly and efficient and you never get the feeling that they are too busy to deal with any problems that you may have.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Porto Azzurro; City: St Paul s Bay Island of Malta; Review: We have a time share here and have always enjoyed our stay. It is a peaceful spot with little traffic noise. the rooms are kept clean and linen changed during the week. Reception can be a little but any queries are answered helpfully. Cleaning staff are both efficient and…; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Porto Azzurro; City: St Paul s Bay Island of Malta; Review: On arrival reception is aware of your booking and you are dealt with in a friendly and informative way.Having been here on previous occasions it was lovely to be greeted in a friendly fashion. Our room was clean and bright and very well appointed - everything you needed for self catering. Domestic staff kept us well looked after. One on site facility that was disappointing was the mini-market - not very well stocked with basic requirements. The customer services manager, Alexis, does an excellent job in answering queries and solving problems that arise, going over and above the call of duty to maintain a pleasant atmosphere.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Given the interaction history of a user with hotels as follows:
Title: Art Relax Suites; City: Rome Lazio; Review: We arrived later than expected from Venice (11PM) and as we walked down the street, Massimo our host was there to greet us (totally unexpected). The area, I agree with other reviews, can seem a little shady but there are police and at no time did I ever feel uncomfortable. Entering the B&B is like entering a different world from the outside. Myself, my son and my sister stayed for 2 nights here while we were in Rome and I was absoutely satisifed 100%. I have stayed in many B&B's in America and I would say this rates right up there with the best of them. The kindness that Massimo expresses to his guests is hard to find in this day and age and after our not so enjoyable stay in Venice the night before our arrival in Rome, it was so comforting to be met by such a warm and sweet person. He was so kind to my son who is 11 and at times can drive you crazy, but Massimo took him in stride and made him feel comfortable enough to ask him to play chess with him, although we never had time to do it, our next trip for sure! The B&B is a wonderful choice and a more than reasonable price. For what he offers in personality and kindness he could charge much more, but we have a feeling he does what he does because he loves people and the joy he gets from interacting is worth much more than money!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Quality Inn; City: Glasgow Kentucky; Review: We found this place via trip advisor and arrived late at night. great price $74/night and room was clean and comfortable. somewhat small, however the 4 of our family was perfectly comfortable. i'm very picky on where i stay and was very comfortable at this place. front desk staff was very nice and accomodating and even recommended mammoth cave for a visit, of which we loved! i would definately recommend this place! had no problem with internet (and i'm a verizon customer) so not sure what the other guy was talking about...; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Orchard House Bed and Breakfast; City: Granville Ohio; Review: ; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Fairfield Inn Suites Chicago Downtown River North; City: Chicago Illinois; Review: We made our booking very last minute and picked it because of price and location. We were within short distance to most everything in the City. The room price was under $150/night for a king with sofa bed. We had 2 adults and 2 children so it worked perfectly. Parking cost can be included in the room package for about $50. The staff was excellent, friendly, helpful, no complaints at all. Fitness room is nice, good variety of fitness equipment. Rooms were clean, nicely decorated and had no concerns there at all. A lot of reviews spoke poorly of the fire station location across the street but our room was directly across from it and we had no issues sleeping. Breakfast is a good selection and area is roomy and nicely kept up by friendly staff.Bedding/towels were very nice! The hotel was actually very busy but very quiet. No complaints or negative things to say about this hotel at all. We did the 3 day pass on the double decker chicago trolly company which had a pickup zone about 2 blocks away so super convenient. Walking distance to Mag Mile, and tons of restaurants very close. We would definitely stay there again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Courtyard Norfolk Downtown; City: Norfolk Virginia; Review: We decided last minute to stay in area on way to beach. It was 10 at night and all hotels were booked in area. Called and originally told no rooms then he said he did have one just open up. We headed over. Marvin at front desk was very accommodating. We had five in our party and it was a king room. He found us a rollaway and we made it work. Valet was very nice and patient and Marvin was great. Room could have been cleaner but all the good efforts of Marvin and valet negated that! Great client service!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Kinzie Hotel; City: Chicago Illinois; Review: We booked at the Kinzie based on the great reviews we had read. We had stayed at another hotel a few blocks away last time which was about $30 less a night and had 1/2 the price of parking. We thought, more money, meant better hotel right? Not so much. Although the Kinzie was clean and the employees were very professional and helpful, we will go back to the cheaper hotel which gave us much more. The breakfast is disappointing for sure. The food is out on a cabinet in the hallway by the elevator on each floor. Although I guess for some this might seem great, we did not care for it at all. Each time you came out, the covers were open, where someone did not close them and since it was in a high traffic area, was just really, kind of disgusting actually. Cereal, milk, yogurt (one day), cold bagels (no toaster available), coffee, tea, oatmeal packets, muffins, fruit and misc pastries. VERY continental. Most days we had to go to other floors to find what we wanted since they replenish only sparingly and if you aren't out there early, forget it. They informed us upon arrival they had a happy hour from 5-8 with food and drinks. We were told the first drink was complimentary (per person). Although a couple next to us at check in rec'd free tokens, we did not. When we went 1-1/2 hours into the 3 hour happy hour, there was no food, and it was never replenished while we were there for 45 minutes. The complimentary drinks were soft drinks. Again, get there early, or you won't get any food, which consisted of cheeses, meats, humus, drenched artichokes and small bread pieces. At least what we could tell from the scraps that were left. I will say the lobby staff was great in helping us load our car, answering questions, etc. BUT for $64/night for parking, you cannot access your car on your own which we did not like. You have to ask them to pull it around, access it and then they take it back to wherever it is that it stays while you're there. Beds were nice (although there was a stain on one of our bedspreads!), pillows comfy, but the bathroom was not as updated as you would think given the overall look of the hotel. It was a regular style bathtub with a shower curtain, which is okay, just expected a more modern glass door, tiled shower. Fitness room was nice, had everything you need. The happy hour room is on the 6th floor, lobby is small, and we had to actually look for where the happy hour room was because it wasn't marked or obvious by signage. No signs for ice machines, have to look for those too. Our room fronted Kinzie St and the traffic and noise at night was horrible. Best thing was our aquarium tickets for $30/each which includes everything. Again, though, they don't tell you any of this, you have to ask. Ask where; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Country Inn Suites by Radisson Ashland Hanover VA; City: Ashland Virginia; Review: I agree with many other travelers on this location. They are super helpful and extremely professional and nice. Making the reservation was good as they were super nice over the phone and when I called in to cancel one night, they were the same way then too. We were late arriving, so I phoned at 8PM and told them we would be later than expected. The guy asked how late and I explained to him we were at a wedding nearby so we weren't sure. He said no problem, we will just see you when you get here. When we arrived, we were met by a smiling front desk employee who oddly enough had our reservation already printed and waiting for me to sign. I've stayed in many hotels over the years and will say, this is right up there on the service provided. I would for sure stay here again and would highly recommend it. Room was nice, clean and no issues whatsoever.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hudspeth House Bed and Breakfast; City: Canyon Texas; Review: We called last minute as we arrived in Amarillo. Jill was most accommodating and an absolute sweetheart. The house is beautiful, clean and homey. Breakfast was exceptional. There are several spots to eat within walking distance. It is a bit of a busy area traffic wise, however you hear nothing inside so don't let the location discourage you. I would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in the area. We loved it!!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Betsie River Camp Site; City: Frankfort Benzie County Michigan; Review: We spent a week mid August 2018. We had never been to the area so weren't too sure what we were getting in to. Everything was great. For the most part the campground is quiet, early morning fisherman do depart between 4:30 and 5:00 but seem to try hard to be respectful of campers still slumbering! We stayed in three campsites total due to reserving late, however I would highly recommend a pull through site which are much nicer and roomier. We did not have a site for our last two nights initially but the owner was helpful to figure something out for us. The sites backing up to the woods were also nice. Bathroom facilities are nice and they serve a great breakfast in the mornings. We used the kayaking service to the Betsie River which was a terrific trip that takes about 2 to 2-1/2 hours. The river is quiet and very few people on it. If you like wildlife and water, I would highly recommend it. The drop you off and pick you up. We also rec'd great ideas for things to do in the area. Day is super sweet and always willing to help out in any way she can. We will most certainly be back!!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Best Western Winchester Hotel; City: Winchester Kentucky; Review: I used Trip Advisor to locate and vet this place before booking. We got two of the last few remaining rooms. Honestly, if I were to drive past this place, I likely would not stop (only because it's an older style motel that I would have guessed was not up to par), HOWEVER, this is by far one of the best hotel experience I have ever had. Not because it had big fancy rooms, but because it was clean and provided outstanding, friendly service. We arrived with a 40 foot boat trailer which posed a small problem with parking. The lot is up a steep embankment and small. After speaking with a local police officer and the night clerk we opted to park across the road. Worried a bit about theft or towing, but it was still there the next morning. And the officer said if anyone called he would tell them it was alright. Small town friendly there! We found our room to be clean, tidy and just what we needed.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Econo Lodge; City: Tifton Georgia; Review: Ended up here because everywhere was booked for miles. The reviews were mixed but seemed decent enough so figured it would be alright. Not greeted when we walked in. Not even a I'll be with you in a minute. Finally acknowledged and booked two rooms. Then found out they were smoking rooms. With two tired men and one tired teenager in car, agreed to take them. Rooms smelled like a musty ashtray, even though recently renovated. Burn holes in bedding in BOTH rooms. Cigarette stains on toilet. Something down the front of microwave and fridge that hadn't been wiped off. Traffic in/out of parking lot all night long (we were in the very back so not a result of people checking in/out), loud cars, the stench of marijuana. Then awaken to folks sitting in their car at 4:30 that didn't seem too legit. That was followed by more sketchy activity from them and others. Apparently this place is rented to locals that use it for whatever they feel they can't do at home. The marijuana smell was so strong at 4am, that we got up and left. If you have a family or want a good nights rest, keep on driving. Even when we were loading the car, local cars driving around parking lot, did not feel safe. Sorry, but really nothing positive to say other than the night clerk was super friendly on our checkout.; Rating: 2.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Regenta Central Klassik; City: Ludhiana Ludhianar District Punjab; Review: The hotel stands out in the Ludhiana skyline (what little there is of it). Its an excellent property with fairly good staff and comfortable rooms. The Breakfast is great and is required when getting off to a long day. More so, it makes for a good place to crash after that long day. The food from room service is ok, but usually the restaurant is open for dinner. Internet in the rooms and comfortable beds close out the picture. But the place is a little pricy, but as long as the company doesn't mind...; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Swissotel The Stamford Singapore; City: Singapore; Review: The Swissotel addresses the needs of any large conference in every detail. I was present as part of a regional event with over 500 members, and the hotel hosted us with great comfort. Along with excellent venues for events and breakout sessions, the hotel offers great and diverse food catering to the needs to attendees from all over Asia. But the highlight for me was the breakfast, which was made up of the largest collection of food I had ever faced down. In hindsight, instead of getting you off to a great start, you're liable to eat so much that all you want to do is get some sleep all over again. But with its location in south-central Singapore, the hotel is well connected to neighboring attractions while providing a self-sufficient platform for conferences. Though I am sure the comfortable rooms would be a great fit even for the lone business traveler.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: WelcomHeritage Bal Samand Lake Palace; City: Jodhpur Jodhpur District Rajasthan; Review: The rain's had been plentiful this year, leaving the Balsamad Lake stunning in the afternoons and making for quite the photo-op as the sun began to set. The retreat is like an oasis in the desert, and it was great to expeirence the same retreat the erstwhile Marahaja's used to. The hotel itself is tastefully done. If you weren't told, one would never know these rooms were actually stables. The beds are comfortable and make a great place to crash after a day of shopping/sightseeing in the city. Though if you're looking to just relax, I would reccomend never leaving the property. Sit by the lake, read a book, go for a swim in the outdoor pool where the water is warm or just grab a drink at the bad up on the hill. Go for the weekend, and see for your self. Great service, beautifully done up rooms, excellent facilities, but most of all a beautiful property.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Inn Season; City: Jodhpur Jodhpur District Rajasthan; Review: A quaint hotel, nestled in the city of Jodhpur. Close to the Taj Hari Mahal, but offers great value for money. Built in an old family property, done up with all the modern amenities and a fairly active staff, the hotel offers a chance for budget travelers a comfortable place to crash after a long day of sightseeing and walking around the city. The rooms are comfortable and the attached bathrooms are huge for those who like to spread out. The property even has a lovely swimming pool with a waterfall and a large lawn surrounding it, in case you want to sit on a deck chair and soak in the sun. The owners are always around to offer a personal touch, and there is decent breakfast available at the hotel. Though I would advice you to try Crossroads just next to the property for larger meals, or eat wherever you may be exploring.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Umaid Bhawan Palace Jodhpur; City: Jodhpur Jodhpur District Rajasthan; Review: The Umaid Bhawan Palace is one of the last royal homes created in this century. And the Maharaja and the Taj have worked hard to keep the guests experience in line with that theme. The rooms are exquisite, with large frescos done in the European style of the Maharaja Umaid Singh's era. Luxury oozes out of every pore. My only regret was that I landed on the bed as soon as I made it into the hotel. I woke up some four hours later to realize my short power nap had taken an unwarranted extension. The lawns, the structure, the decor and the main hall give you an idea of what it meant to be a part of royalty in their heyday. But don't expect all this to come cheap, as the prices are fairly stiff. But I would still put it in the value for money category considering the one of a kind value that the palace hotel gives the leisure traveler. Make sure to visit the rooftop restaurant and do spend an afternoon at the rear lawns under the gazebo. With great food, amazing views of the city, and a palace shop with some beautiful wares, its all in all a once in a lifetime experience. I had a chance to stay for the weekend, and attend one of the royal ceremonies at the hotel, and these are memories one is unlikely to forget.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Balmer s Hostel; City: Matten bei Interlaken Interlaken Bernese Oberland Canton of Bern; Review: The Hostel is within easy reach of the rail station and has a great staff. The rooms are a little small, especially with 6 beds, but one really misses electricity sockets especially with phones and cameras to charge these days. I only stayed for the night, and the pub was a good place to grab a quick night back. My only disappointment was the breakfast. It was just a piece of bread and some butter/cheese which really leaves you wanting more before a long day of hiking/sports. Some work here and the Herberge will continue to be the place to stay in Interlaken.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Stadtalm; City: Salzburg Austrian Alps; Review: I made it to the Stadtalm somewhat by mistake. Part of the Salzburg card gets you to the Modern Art museum up on the hill with a Panorama view. And there I saw the sign for the youth hostel, and away I went. I can't say enough for this lucky coincidence as the Stadtalm was the very best youth Hostel I spent the night in during my time in Austria. The rooms were a little small, but clean and comfortable. There were charging points for my phone and my camera which really made life easier for the weary traveler. More importantly you wake up to an absolutely magnificent view out the solitary window of the room. The whole city laid out before you, the Stadtalm beats the panorama terrace. With a lovely breakfast to get you on your way, this is the place to stay.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Khimsar Sand Dunes Village; City: Khimsar Nagaur District Rajasthan; Review: I spent a fair bit of time in the desert and never had much love for sand and the prickly thorns it came with. But the Khimsar Dune resort really does provide a one of a kind experience. When we got to the hill, we got off the 4WD and hopped onto a Camel Cart for the short trip to our hut. A little man made lake in the center just adds to the ambiance. On the one day I spent there, I must have spent most of it lazing around in the hammock under the shade of the tree. And the rest of it, eating dinner at the hilltop restaurant. The rooms were cool and comfortable and well equipped. So don't worry about having to 'rough-it' to live among the dunes. The staff was very polite and helpful and added to the overall experience.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Jugendherberge 1070 Vienna; City: Vienna; Review: I randomly picked the Jugendherbege on Myrthengasse out of all the Hostels in Vienna. Travelling during the non-peak season, getting place was no trouble, but I do remember the very helpful gentlemen at the Front Desk who gave me good advice on everything from the Vienna Card to Mobile connections. The rooms are big with comfortable beds and clean linens.There is a lot of storage space but do carry your own lock. There is even a nice courtyard at the back where you can hang out or stare at the stars. Free WiFi in the Common Areas extends outside so enjoy the Fall weather and catch up with things at home. There are however very few bathrooms for the number of people who stay so be prepared for a line of wake up early in the morning.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: The Hill Club; City: Nuwara Eliya Central Province; Review: The Hill Club greets you with well landscaped lawns and is set atop a small hill. The building dates back almost a hundred years and is well maintained. The staff is very helpful and gave us a tour of the hotel. The rooms we looked at were a little small but I understand larger ones are available. The highlight was the dining hall which offers an excellent menu and great service. The hotel even has a nice little souvenir shop with Hill Club branded items.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Nuwara Eliya Golf Club; City: Nuwara Eliya Central Province; Review: When looking for accomodation in Nuwara Eliya, one is certainly not starved for choice. For us, it was thanks to our Sri Lankan hosts that we were booked rooms at this elite, members only club. As you drive up to the Golf Club reception, you are flanked by lush greens of the golf course. When we landed up there was a light drizzle which only added to the hill station charm of the whole place. The Club offers all the modern amenities of a hotel while maintaining its old world, British Colonial personality. We were warmly greeted and our rooms were ready for us. The smartly attired staff in local dress guided us to our rooms and deposited our luggage safely as well. The rooms were wood paneled, with large mirrors and well furnished. A large clean bathroom was attached and there was enough storage space. We spent two nights in very comfortable beds and woke well refreshed for a day of sightseeing. The Bar is well stocked and there is a dining hall but it leaves more to be desired. A strict dress code is maintained for the Dining Hall and Main Bar. There is also a billiards room for a late game with your brandy. The highlight of our stay was enjoying High Tea on the front verandah of the club overlooking the 18th Green. A must visit if not a must stay location.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hornbill Holiday Home; City: Colombo Western Province; Review: Being on a whirlwind trip with a tight budget, I stumbled across the Hornbill Holiday home as a potential location for our stay in Colombo. The hostel is on the first floor in a residential neighborhood and would be difficult to find if the owners had not sent across a clear and detailed email to us with directions. We had booked two double rooms. Both were very clean and properly made up when we arrived. The attached bathrooms were also very clean but there was no water pressure in the taps or the shower which did prove a slight challenge. Also the lights in the room were very dull so don't try and read a book inside. Outside the rooms were connected by a large central lobby and kitchen with a small dining table. The kitchen has a few cups and a water heater if you want to make tea. There is free WiFi and a TV which are a big support for the weary traveler. The staff is basically one person who is rarely around and we had to wait for almost 45 minutes to check out as there was no one to collect the keys. Also, payment for the entire stay is made in advance.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Nature Tangalle; City: Tangalle Southern Province; Review: The Nature Tangalle was recommended to us by our Sri Lankan hosts. The entrance road is easy to miss as its a small turn into the woods right off the Galle highway. There is a sign on the small stone bridge which marks the turn for future reference. The approach road left us wondering where we had ended up as it threads through thick forest and over small low bridges crossing the surrounding lagoon. But situated right at the end of this approx 1km dirt road is the Nature Tangalle were we spent the two best days of our visit. Situated about 20 meters off the Tangalle beach, between the ocean on one side and the lagoon on the other, this resort truly surpassed expectations. Its run by two ladies who met us at the reception and helped get everything in order. We were led to our rooms which were large and airy with big beds. The is a small airconditioner in each room but it was good enough to cool the entire place. The bathrooms are neatly done with a stone finish and clean with enough place to hang clothes. Outside each room is a small stone verandah with chairs and a table where we enjoyed out tea in the morning and wine in the evening. The hotel is situated right on a very isolated beach which has slightly coarse sand. Excellent for making sand castles. The water was clean though we had to walk a little way to go for a swim as there are rocks just a few yards into the water. The resort has a large menu and we enjoyed a variety of dishes prepared by the resident chef. A highlight was one of the staff boys climbing up the coconut tree to get us some fresh coconut water. A great stay on the whole and I look forward to visiting again when I go back to SL.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Orchids Resort; City: Boracay Malay Aklan Province Panay Island Visayas; Review: An impromptu trip on a small budget led me to Orchid's resort. I was looking for a room for the weekend and as luck would have it Orchid's had just had a cancellation. Taking the great tripadvisor rating to heart I booked. We reached Boracay island late in the evening by which time it was already dark, but the tricycle drivers know the place well enough and got us to the nearest beach access road. It does take a little finding in the dark, but always ask the locals and you won't go wandering around more than necessary like I did. Set just off the beach and accessed by a narrow alley, Orchid's itself occupies a large space and is made entirely of native bamboo and nipa with both cottages and rooms. I had a room on the first floor with an attached bathroom and a comfortable bed. The rooms have basic furniture but more than sufficient for a beach holiday. The bathroom was clean and thus my only fear was voided. The staff is always around and helpful with free and unlimited tea or coffee available night day and night. They do have paid WiFi and in a way I feel its good since it gives me a reason to stay disconnected (I did mention tiny budget). Hope to stay there again next time and for longer. Boracay is an amazing island and a quiet nook like Orchid's makes it even better while going easy on the wallet.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Himeji Castle Grandvrio Hotel; City: Himeji Hyogo Prefecture Kinki; Review: On a last minute business trip and the recommended hotel was already booked. So I ended up at Hotel Himeji Castle. It is located reasonably close to the Himeji Bus/Train station but I wouldn't recommend a walk in the winter or if you have too much luggage. The hotel itself is pleasant if a bit dated but some might like its almost old world charm with muted colors and shared of beige and gold. The reception staff are helpful and spoke good English. The rooms are compact but given this was a last minute trip, reasonably priced. Again, the amenities are somewhat dated but functional. The internet is fast and reliable. The breakfast leaves much to desire, especially for international travelers. But my only complaint was the lack of water in the rooms - need to go find a vending machine to quench one's thirst.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Four Points By Sheraton Yangzhou Hanjiang; City: Yangzhou Jiangsu; Review: First time to Yangzhou on a business trip - I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel in this somewhat small industrial town. Despite mixing up my airport pickup and leaving my (non-Chinese speaking) colleagues and I to find our own way to the hotel, the stay could not be faulted. The hotel is also well done and representative of the brand (for the most part). They can certainly speed up their check-in procedures but the rooms are large and certainly worth the money. But the breakfast needs to be improved - both in variety and flavour. They can take a cue from the Chinese restaurant on the first floor which put together a great meal for us tired folks even though we came in 30 minutes past closing time.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Anang Balay Turista; City: El Nido Palawan Island Palawan Province Mimaropa; Review: After a lot of research, we stumbled across Anang Balay, but what sold us on it was the owner Anafe who was tremendously helpful throughout not just with the booking but our trip planning and helped make it what it was. Located at the end of the row right behind the beach, our room looked out onto the water and the bancas moored there. The room was spacious and clean. There was an attached bathroom but it could use more ventilation - recommend room freshner. The high point of the stay was breakfast on the terrace with a beautiful view of the harbour and the islands. Pictures can hardly do it justice. All in all, Anang Balay is a gem and we hope you have a chance to enjoy their hospitality.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Veneto de Vigan; City: Vigan Ilocos Sur Province Ilocos Region Luzon; Review: Located in the heart of the city, just a few steps from Calle Crisologo, Veneto de Vigan is a beautifully restored 170+ year old building - one of the oldest homes in Vigan. The dark varnished wood stands out across the hotel and the rooms adding to the character. The rooms themselves are a bit small, but with a nice bathroom. And there are a few little niches in the hotel where you can enjoy a glass of wine while enjoying the great weather and clear sky. The restaurant has good food and the Vigan Longanisa at breakfast is recommended. And the staff is quick and helpful and makes for a pleasant stay. If you drove up, there is sufficient parking but be sure to leave you car behind and walk around the town to truly experience Vigan.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Colione Bed and Breakfast; City: Baguio Benguet Province Cordillera Region Luzon; Review: We only stayed a night and Colione served as a good break after the long drive up. Easily found on the map, the hotel was a little ways down the hill past the busy city centre. Best to use a taxi or tricycle to get to and from the hotel - walking fully exposes on to all the Baguio pollution and the hill can be a climb. The staff was nice and the hotel and rooms are very nicely done up. You get the full hill station experience with the creaky wood floors and the pines visible out the window. But they should certainly reconsider the glass panes on the main room door which let in way too much light and make it hard to sleep.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Punta Azul Beach Resort; City: Pagudpud Ilocos Norte Province Ilocos Region Luzon; Review: My original booking fell through and the hotel forgot to mention it until I got there. So walking along the rocky shore, I am checking every place and the nice lady at Punta Azul says she has a room. Relieved, I immediately checked into one of the small rooms at the top floor, which despite a squeaky bed was decent enough. The place is best suited for large families and there is even room to park. There is a functioning kitchen and the staff are helpful. Enjoy your stay.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Eagle Point Resort; City: Mabini Batangas Province Calabarzon Region Luzon; Review: Eagle Point came highly recommended but once you make it through the winding roads of Batangas and Mabini to get here, it meets all those expectations. The hotel was fairly empty when we arrived and we were given one of the rooms at the top level of the Terrace section. The view could only be called breathtaking and one looked forward to watching the sunrise there the next morning. But the same beautiful views were to be found at the restaurant and the bar where you can enjoy your meals. There are some great diving options and would absolutely recommend taking the boat out. They even have a small pool where you can dive with some baby sharks so if you want to cross that off your bucket list, here's your chance.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Villa Del Mar Ivory Beach Resort; City: Pagudpud Ilocos Norte Province Ilocos Region Luzon; Review: Visiting in December, we decided to extend our trip by a night and tried Villa Del Mar. They are one of the more expensive hotels on the beach and with a large dining area and entrance, it suggests a good hotel. The location again is at the beach, and that's the biggest plus of the hotel. But that perception only lasted till I walked to the room. It was a small square room, with a flickering light and a tiny TV that is from a decade or two ago. But I was there for the beach so with lowered expectations, one could overlook these issues, but the ensuite bathroom, was only an excuse for a bathroom. The shower barely worked, and flooded the floor, the water pressure in the tap forced one to bring the toothbrush too close to the dirty tap and so much more. Not what you want to come back to after a lovely day at the beach. The Breakfast is also included but there is only one cook, and it takes ages (40+ min) to get anything. So plan accordingly if you have an early start in the morning. Only stayed one night and for the price, would not recommend. Or at least, temper your expectations before going.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: Holiday Inn Express Singapore Clarke Quay; City: Singapore; Review: The Holiday Inn is well situated in central Singapore. The check-in process is smooth though a line quickly builds up when groups arrive and that can take a while. Suggest you find a cozy chair by the size and wait if in such a situation. The rooms are modern and well equipped. Some may say small, but this is about the size you get for the price. They do need to add a shoe horn for convenience. Breakfast however leaves one wanting and could be better in terms of choice.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: East Indies Mansion; City: George Town Penang Island Penang; Review: Georgetown was the first stop on our journey and after making our way through the bylanes of town, we stepped into the idyllic verandah of the East Indies Mansion. From the helpful staff to the large, airy room, our stay was very comfortable. It is an experience staying in such an old building that has been lovingly restored and the letters/artifacts on the wall give one a look back to its vibrant history. A warning though, Penang's weather is conducive to lots of mosquitoes so be sure to get the citronella candles from the staff which are a good deterrent.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: The Rose Pike at Boracay; City: Boracay Malay Aklan Province Panay Island Visayas; Review: We've been going to this hotel for breakfast for years, but this was our first stay and it did not disappoint. Our room at the Rose Pike was tucked away at the back of the hotel and not really on the beach, but we kicked off each day with breakfast right by the water. The room itself was comfortable and clean. A few ants here and there but nothing you wouldn't expect on a tropical island. The bathroom was clean, and the hot water heater did the job. Great night's sleep after a day of doing everything Boracay has to offer. The hotel has beds right out front that are always available and you can cheaply rent beach towels for the duration of your stay. Enjoy their breakfast but I'd get the other meals elsewhere. Our only disappointment came from all the sea-weed that has come to White Beach, forming a green sludge as you get into the water. The impact of humanity and changing water temperatures is apparent and one must do more to preserve Boracay's beautiful water.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Villa Santun; City: Ubud Gianyar Regency Bali; Review: If you're looking for a quiet, private villa to just disappear into for a few days, Villa Santun is it.The property is just outside of Ubud, down a back-road with lush green rice fields stretching for miles on one side. The hotel has golf carts to get you from the main road or you can navigate it with your scooter/bike. The drop-zone on the main road with a little waiting area is something to watch for (need to be mapped on Google Maps) - but if in doubt, just call the hotel and they are quick to guide. We stayed in the one-bedroom Villa and from the moment you walk in, it is idyllic. Lush green, with a neat private pool, the ambiance is exactly what you need to switch off from the world (though there is decent internet in case you have withdrawal). The room itself is well done up with a comfortable bed and all the amenities (TV, Phone dock etc.) but the bathrooms are where the luxury kicks in. Enjoy showers with the blue sky above or lounge in the tub with lush green Balinese flora right next to you. The staff are polite and well drilled and one can't help but smile along with them. If you do want to leave the privacy of the villa (no reason to - there's in-villa dining, private yoga lessons and the pool), ask for advice or pick one of the organized trips. The villa has a shuttle that gets you to town and picks you up, but we just rented a bike to move around more independently. Surrounded by the high walls layered in rich greenery, Villa Santun is a private space you can lose yourself in. The only caveat, the pool can be a bit cold in the evening and the hotel can consider heating as an addition. But don't let that stop you - its quite refreshing. All in all, they offer great value.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Melia Las Americas; City: Varadero Matanzas Province Cuba; Review: Beach was nice. Pool was decent. It could have been cleaner but generally decent. Jazz Bar was nice. Good fresh papaya juice, generous shots, and an awesome Cubanito Sandwich. Breakfast Buffet had good selection and great fresh mangoes. It is a very picturesque location. Building is a bit old. Rooms were pretty sparse. Showers worked well. What are the cons: -Thin towels in the room. And also they are not generous on the towels. -Towel Police make you have to check in and out towels for the beach. -Bedspread is old and musty. -Bed is not comfy and quite old. Ocean view is not worth it. You don't see the ocean but rather building to either side and roof of the lobby below, then trees. Internet is horrendous. I mean it takes forever to get a couple of emails. I had a decent stay. But my expectation for a star rated this high is that it is below standard. It takes a while to get used to. Pro: Beach. Jazz Bar. Pool.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Melia Cohiba; City: Havana Ciudad de la Habana Province Cuba; Review: First, the sad part is that this is one of the better hotels in Cuba. And for an American, there best is like our lowest. Food was decent but overpriced. People were courteous but not very helpful. So they did their jobs but it was like ordering fast food type of service from a decent place. What does that mean you are probably thinking. Well here goes... We stayed with a large group. My room had air conditioning. But the towels in the bathroom were full of mildew. They stunk. My brother and his wife stayed in a room that had no air conditioning. My mother stayed in a room that looked ok but upon pulling up the sheet covers and about to get into bed, she was shocked to find an infestation of termites. Well, she calls housekeeping. Housekeeper was shocked. She tells my mother they must close the room as it needs to be fumigated. She gets upgraded to the executive room, which is basically the same with an extra bed. She then asks the housekeeper for tons of extra towels. She inspects bed. Luckily, no termites but she sleeps on top of layers of towels that all smell like mildew. She hardly slept. Now, back to my room. I am drying my hair with my curling iron. I have the converter etc. The electricity obviously doesn't have the right settings. Because guess what??? My brush curling iron melt in my hair and I lose a whole clump of hair that gets fused with burnt plastic. Horrendous. I inform the hotel and they can just apologize to hear that it happened. That is the best they do. Like I said courteous but not much else. We check out 2 days early as the whole situation was traumatizing to be told that they will charge us for early departure. Well, what can we say. 50 CUCs per room for early check out when their rooms were just horrendous. The only plus is that the wifi worked in the lobby. Thank god. Because it was the only internet we could get in Cuba. But it costs 12 CUCs fro 2 hours or up to 128 MB. Unfortunately, 2 hours gets you very little emails as the internet is quite slow. It is slower than USA dial up. No free water. And overpriced. I am not sure what else I can say. This was a pretty traumatizing trip for my family. We just left it yesterday. May 14, 2011. Supposed to check out May 16. We came back to the states as this was just not what we expected...; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: Explora Atacama All Inclusive; City: San Pedro de Atacama Antofagasta Region; Review: I just stayed here and had an overall amazing stay. I would recommend the hotel to all my fam and friends. The best part about ExPlora is the excursions and the modern design of the Atacama hotel. The Design: the hotel is well designed. The rooms are cozy. The shower is strong and amazing. The dining room is very zen and modern. All the bathrooms and fixtures are new and modern. The pool area is beautiful. I mean even getting to the 4 pools felt like a walk thru a desert Wonderland with huge wheat plants and a wooden walkway. Great landscape design. You feel like it is a special haven. But the actual pools need to be re-done. The pool walls/floor was a little worn. The food: The food was great although I do wish they had more than two main course options for dinner or lunch. We stayed here for 4 days/3nights. And though they changed up the selection, I felt limited. I actually wish they had a typical meal option each night. Because all the food was upscale, you don't get a sense of the typical Chilean Meal. I had seared tuna. Ratatouille. Etc. But as a foreigner in an all inclusive, it seems like a typical simple fare would have been more special to sample. I hope they add a typical meal option so it gives guests a variation to the upscale food they serve. They also need options for kids. Each night the kids had a choice of steak and pasta or steak and potatoes. That was pretty boring 3 nights in a row. The Excursions: The staff are friendly and courteous. They are knowledgeable. We had Andre for a few excursions. We loved him. He was very attentive, informative, and fun. I strongly suggest the geysers, Cejar lagoon, Puritama hot springs, sslajares de atacama (salt field) for excursions. I am sad to have missed the anti Plano but we had not enough time. The cons: Laundry service is not quick. Took us 2 nights to get our clothes back not 1. Food options as mentioned. And a pool lining upgrade. Also, I had a massage which was more aromatherapy than real deep tissue massage. And there is no wifi in rooms. Nor a tv. Which may be a good thing if you want to break from the real world. But that is pretty not picky items. Overall this is an awesome luxury oasis in the desert. We loved our stay there.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Cove at Atlantis Autograph Collection; City: Paradise Island New Providence Island Bahamas; Review: So where to begin, I have been coming to the Cove since it opened. I was there for its Grand Opening where I literally met all the stars from Whitney to Lindsey Lohan. Since I have been going each and every Christmas. Every year, I see Magic Johnson and his family like clockwork. I have also visited in February, March and April. But Christmas Week is the best time of year and there is also special events, shows, and DJ's. Lots of celebs during this time too. Now, the Cove is hands on the best luxury family vacation location that gives the perfect balance of things to do, high end comfort and adult activities too. Let's first talk about Atlantis in broad strokes. Atlantis is a tropical Disneyland. And when you have kids like I do, this makes the property ABSOLUTELY awesome. Why? Well there are a lot of activities for the kids from the Temple Water slides, the numerous water tanks with fish, sharks, and manta rays just floating by. And they have numerous water features for kids. If you get bored of that there is a lazy river. All of this is on location and free to access. Kids roam free all day. It is very safe. If that isn't enough, you can have them feed the sharks, rock climb, or paddle boat. These are added cost. And the piece de resistance that my kids do every year is the dolphin experience, where they swim with the dolphins. It isn't cheap but it is worth it. And the photo ops are awesome. At night, my kids eat, watch a movie or head to the kids nightclub. They have babysitters for hire. There is also an adventure discovery club for kids to stay in a group and explore the property and have a planned day. So they literally cover the babies to teens on all levels with activities and attractions. What does this mean for me? FREEDOM. Now, let's talk about the Cove in that context. The Cove is the luxury, zen, higher end hotel on Atlantis. It is close to the casino and all the festivities and is convenient to all the kids attractions. But it is remote enough and special enough to feel separate. If you are looking for truly remote and private, The Cove is probably not for you. It is not removed like the Ocean Club which is off the main property and a bus ride away. If you want privacy go to the Ocean Club. It is high end and very private. A couple's haven with a bit better and more luxurious bedding. I've stayed at both and prefer the convenience of the Cove for my kids. Anyway, I digress... Back to the Cove. The Cove rooms are all great. I sleep like a baby in The Cove. Probably due to all the sun I get when in the Bahamas. Each room is basically has either a king or a 2 queens with a TV. And they all have a pull out couch and another TV; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Banyan Tree Mayakoba; City: Playa del Carmen Yucatan Peninsula; Review: Just spent spring break at the Banyan Tree in a 3 bedroom golf villa. It was divine. The hotel is well designed, feels like it was a feng shui design. There is an open airiness to the main lobby. The staff was also so accommodating. I highly recommend Candra for massages. She was awesome. We loved the villa. Only three small issues. Wish it had a half bath on the first floor closer to the rooftop pool. Had to walk two flights down if you have to go to the bathroom. And with kids dripping wet that isn't ideal. Second, bathroom shower door needed a new magnet to be fixed. Wouldn't close properly. But didn't really affect our shower. Third, I wish they let you take home the toiletry bag or beach bag in your villa. For the price, and in other luxe hotels, those items are typically freebies. But on all fronts we enjoyed the villa, the beach, the lagoon and the staff, who were so accommodating. They really made our stay so great. We will be back!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: JW Marriott Absheron Baku; City: Baku Absheron Region; Review: This is a great place to stay. The service has been amazing. Each person from the moment you get to the door has been super attentive. The rooms are new, well designed, spacious and luxurious. It is functional design at its best. The views from the higher floors are amazing. Pleasantly surprised. And highly recommended. And the wine at dinner tonight was divine.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Belamar Hotel; City: Manhattan Beach California; Review: I'm so frustrated at the smell of fishy raw sewage in rooms 223,225,227. This is supposed to be a three room suite. And it is TERRIBLE. I mean on all fronts. It is not ok. So we notified them this afternoon. Meanwhile, I was trying to make the situation bearable. We aired out the room by opening the balcony door. And closing off the AC as we can't understand where it is coming from. So they sent a handyman who simply sprayed stuff everywhere. We have kids with asthmatic allergies. And a pregnant woman in our family. And spraying chemicals to mask the scent will not only band aid the problem but cause worse medical issues for the family. But that's all he did. And I sprayed perfume as well. Because it was simply THAT bad. But the handyman comes and says he smells nothing. Well, he wouldn't as he was spraying EVERYTHING in sight with a "freshener". We went to dinner. Told the hotel front desk to address it better when we left. But my kids came up to the room first and was hit with the same stench. My daughter called the front desk. Apparently, solve was again a handyman and freshener. I was still parking the car. So I had a manager just come up as soon as I was done parking. The manager says he doesn't smell a thing even though my kids are all literally complaining that it smells. But the manager says he has a sensitive nose and does not smell anything. (AS the handyman is spraying right behind him as he walks the room. So of course he smells the freshener.) Yet a bunch of kids with allergies are all complaining. Not one child. Not two. But I have 7 kids staying in the suite with us (my kids and their cousins). And 6 of them feel ill from the stench. And all are telling me they can't breathe and can't take it. I can't tell if it's musty rooms. Or if it is sewage leaking thru walls. But it is a horrible smell to deal with. My throat is now itching from the "freshener" my husband is beginning to cough. And we have no idea how to solve this. They have no other rooms to accommodate us. And at this point they are telling us they will just deep clean the room TOMORROW. Without solving the issue of where the smell is coming from. Why not allow us to locate the problem to properly remedy than to just keep spraying chemicals to mask it??? I had stayed here with my aunt before. And there were no issues. Everything was fine. It isn't the best of hotels but it was decent. No complaints. But this visit, it is truly a nightmare. And I'm very disappointed with the management for handling this so casually. I feel they could have addressed it better. And should have done so earlier. Because it is now 11 pm at night and no cleaning can be done until tomorrow. 😤; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: The Peninsula Chicago; City: Chicago Illinois; Review: I’m staying here as I write. This is how all hotels should be. Extremely courteous staff from the bellman, reception to the concierge. Attentive, friendly and positive attitudes. It makes a big difference to just my reaction to encounter all smiles. The rooms are comfortable and modern. It’s very tastefully designed. There are touchpads everywhere as well as tv screens in the bedroom and bathroom. I love modern design that works. This one does. The florals in the hallway are amazing. The details here are everything. But beautiful elegant florals are everywhere in the lobby. The turn down service is also just very pro. My TV was positioned perfect for bedtime. Music piping. I walked into my bathroom. Even how they cleaned up my toiletries were just impeccable. All 5 star hotels need to take a page out of this book. I highly recommend. Only cons: I’m not a major fan of two elevators. You take one up to the lobby. Then go to your rooms from a different elevator bank. But it’s probably better for security purpose. The water pressure for the shower could be a bit stronger. I love strong showers. That’s all I got for the cons. Lol. Those are really small things. ;); Rating: 5.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Someone Like You; Author: Visit Amazon's Timothy James Beck Page; Review: I didn't buy this book after reading the first person's book. A friend gave it to me as a gift because I'd read the other books. I really enjoyed it. The gay characters & romance/relationship are featured throughout the book - not just in the final 20 pages. What I like about TJB's books is that they feature gay and straight characters. Although the flow of the book gets a bit choppy and times, it's worth reading if you look a novel featuring an ensemble of characters and the way their lives interweave.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Heart Of Light; Author: Visit Amazon's T.K. Leigh Page; Review: A beautiful book that grips you from the start! I've never seen human trafficking written so tastefully and heartbreaking. A must read for any romance or romantic drama.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Love In Rewind (Audio Fools) (Volume 1); Author: Visit Amazon's Tali Alexander Page; Review: ** spoiler alert ** This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. This is the first book I've read by Tali Alexander ans I was not disappointed. Her writing style captures your attention and doesn't let go into you've finished the book. You can feel all the emotions pouring out of the pages and into your mind. Love In Rewind gives you a different look at a poignant love story between Louis and Emily. You get to read how this beautiful couple come together and the problems that they face. There is an age gap between Emily and Louis, but I completely forgot about it as they are perfect for one another. Emily is a young woman who is helping out with her sister's business and lays eyes on the sexiest man she's even seen. From there, you see her instant attraction and obsession, but she stays completely innocent and sweet. I loved reading about Emily and her life because she is unique and has an optimistic view of the world but doubts her self worth. Throughout the book, I felt myself grow closer to her character and kept hoping for good things to happen. But what would you do when a dream shatters? Seeing how Emily coped was devastating and yet understandable, but she still kept herself true to her love. Louis is a sexier, older gent who has an appeal and charm about him. I loved reading his story and how his life was before he set eyes on Emily. He has the world at his feet and wants the one woman who completes him so beautifully. He has been a playboy before he settled down, but does he stay faithful? I cried over him near the end of the book and was kept on my toes and its made me excited to read the next book. I can't say much because everyone should read this devastatingly wonderful and poignant love story. The secondary characters also keep you interested as you can see how much they mean to Emily and Louis. I loved Sara and I can't wait to read her story! This book is worth 5 stars and more.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lies In Rewind (Audio Fools) (Volume 2); Author: Visit Amazon's Tali Alexander Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for a honest review. I loved this book, not as much as Love in Rewind, but this book was still a fantastic read. Tali has a beautiful writing style and it absorbs you into her world. The book flowed well and was full of drama, angst and love. You see another side to Sara and I loved her more than I did. Sara is someone who has gone through life with secrets that could make her life a nightmare, so she hid them. The only person who knows is someone she shouldn't have but still craves them. Her best friend is none the wiser, but I always had a suspicion that Emily knew Sara was hiding something. Sara goes through a bucket load of emotion all within a few days and starts to feel something strong for Will. She goes behind Emily's back to send Will away, but what will happen when they come together? You have to read to find out how amazing they are. Will (or Liam) is a man who had his world rocked two years before and then his world becomes shaken when he meets Emily in his hotel at the end of Love in Rewind. He seems to be obsessed with Emily, that is until he meets the fiery Sara. At fist he is just doing it to get to Emily and hurt Louis, but in the end, he finds out that the person he was still grieving, wasn't the person he thought. This book was fast paced and you fall in love with both Sara and Will like I have. This book is worth every star and I can't wait to read more from Tali!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Intent; Author: Visit Amazon's A. D. Justice Page; Review: I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I love all of A.D. Justice's work and this book blew me away completely. This book is different from all her others, but you can still read that A.D has proved this story to follow. This novel encompassed everything that I find wonderful in a book, from the romance to the shock and mystery. I couldn't put the book down and had to find out what was happening between Layne and Ace. Layne walks in to find her boyfriend in a compromising position with her best friend. This leads to us seeing us on her sabbatical and contemplate her future. Layne is a strong lady, who loves hard and is wonderful with the 'broken' in the world. I love how she interacts with people and her initial contact with Ace made me laugh, as it's most likely how I'd react. My heart cried for her, broke and rejoiced for her. But I had to finish the book to find out if she got a happy ever after. Ace is my sort of hero. He works with horses, has the sweetest little girl in the world and is gorgeous! Ace is completely loving, protective and the sweetest guy in the world. His past was heart wrenching and I could feel myself break for him, but you would never know what had happened to him. The storyline throughout the book was filled with love, laughter, cheeky behaviour, a beautiful little girl and barn owls. The other characters helped the story pad out and made the book even better and kept that drama and mystery alive. Some of the surprises I didn't expect and I felt myself love this aspect even more than before. The drama is very much alive, with both Ace and Layne, but with other people as well. This book is a must read, as you will not be disappointed!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Unlikely Venture; Author: Visit Amazon's Kristen Luciani Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. Kristen is a new author to me, but I'm glad I got to read her work. Her writing style is easy to follow, descriptive to create her world in your mind and poetic to entice you to continue reading her story and following the characters. This book included many characters, a s***ty boss, but also a heart breaking plot for both James and Jessica. Jessica is a lady who I loved reading about, as she was a much more typical female, one who is dealing with a severe medical problem, as well as a crappy boss who doesn't appreciate the work she does. I loved her spunky attitude and the way she dealt with things head on. I did have a few moments when I cried for her, but then she made me see that they were just making her a stronger person than before. Her determination to not let her illness change her life was inspirational, as well as her relationships with the people in her life. Jessica met James through amusing chances, but I loved how they gelled together, even though Jessica and James had been hurt in the past by the people who supposedly loved them. James is an entrepreneur who meets a women in unusual circumstances, but he cannot get her out of his mind. I loved how devoted he is to the women in his life, but also how he goes with his gut. When I found out about the guilt he carried, it broke my heart, as it's the worst sort of guilt to carry. James slowly works through it all and is ensuring he becomes stronger than before. I enjoyed seeing how he worked with his business partner, as they made for a comical team. I loved reading the story, as it had a real-life woman, a sexy and focused hero, loving friends, amazing parents and another man attempting to get with the heroine. I will be reading more of Kristen's work, as I found this book highly enjoyable and a down-to-Earth read.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Nothing Ventured; Author: Visit Amazon's Kristen Luciani Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. I loved Unlikely Venture, and I loved this book too! The story is about Chris, who is James' business partner, and Mia, who is Paul Emerton's right hand. The book had romance, drama, hot feelings, intelligent people and adorable family members. Oh, and some kick-ass basketball playing! Chris is a typical playboy and I found myself wanting him to settle down and find that one person who could give him the reason to stop his philandering ways. He is loyal to his family and his friends, and yet never seemed loyal to himself. But once he found Mia, you saw how much he struggled with everything. I think his development was wonderful and so refreshing to read. Because you know, never mix business with pleasure. I loved Chris and how he acted with his two nieces, especially since they had no father figure around. Mia is a lady who has a beautiful little girl, but doesn't want to risk her getting hurt whilst she attempts to find love. I did wonder why she was so gunshy, and once I found out, it was completely justified. But I did feel like she was using her daughter as a shield. Mia's attraction to Chris was interesting to watch, especially as she knew what sort of man he was. But, Mia was dating a man called Alex, who I hated when I first met him in the book. I did feel sorry for Mia, especially when you saw how her mother treated her, and it got to the point when I wanted to smack her mother Susan. I loved the plot twist with Mia, Chris and Alex, especially as I didn't see what happened coming. This made the book a 5* for me, as it gave the book an extra depth, especially as everything seemed to happen so quickly between Mia and Chris. But the book was enjoyable and the sexual tension was hot! Kristen still has a wonderful writing style and the book drags you into her world and doesn't let go until the end. I cannot wait to read more of her work!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Venture Forward (The Venture Series) (Volume 3); Author: Visit Amazon's Kristen Luciani Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. Venture Forward is the third book in the Venture series, and it follows Paul Emerson and a lady called Avery Hunter. I think this book was my favourite of the series because of it's angst, drama, romance and the business aspect of the book. The plot was amazing and I loved how they became intertwined with other problems, as well as finding out hidden secrets. Avery and Paul both have troubled pasts, but only one of the decided to attempt to do something cathartic about it. I loved the use of a novel being created through an alias in an attempt to preserve their identity and protect their family. But what if the circumstances weren't what you expected and they disproved your emotion completely? How would you feel if that novel could potentially destroy that person's life? These are the questions that are answered beautifully in Venture Forward. Paul. He is a serious hottie, but I liked how he had a ruthless side as well as a softer and more loving side. His history was something I didn't expect, but I could see how it would make him how he is. Paul was seen in book one and two, and yet I always wanted to know what drives him. I certainly got my answer and I loved it! His interactions with Avery were hot and I loved the surfing scenes. The first time they met at the beach had me in laughter, as the character's were so real and I could believe everything that had happened. But what had me hooked was the fact that Paul never got what he wanted for the first time in his life. That is one of the reasons I had to finish the book, to see if he got the happily ever after! Avery is a young woman who was determined to make something of herself. I found this admirable, especially when I heard about her sister, as she was hell-bent in making her creation available to the masses. Her strength to get through and make her family proud was amazing, as I don't think I could have done that. But what I found really inspiring was that she gave up her own dream to make her sister's a reality. That takes some real dedication and guts but she made it work. Her reactions to Paul are steamy and I kept wanting to push them together, especially as I felt they could make it work. But *sigh* friends is all they want... Or is it??? This book is told through two perspectives allowing for the addition of extra-depth that made the book feel complete and completely thrilling for me to read. I will be recommending this to anyone I can, as it really is an amazing book! Kristen deserves way more than 5 stars!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Edge of Glory (Friendship, Texas) (Volume 1); Author: Visit Amazon's Magan Vernon Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. This author is a new read to me and I was glad that I got the chance to read Magan's work. I loved the fact that the story revolved around a girl who was 'under her parents thumb' and an Olympic swimmer. This story showed how not everything is as it's seems. Magan has a beautiful writing style, that is quirky and engages the reader totally. I finished the book in one sitting, as time flew whilst I was reading the book. Lia, or Rosalia, is a nearly twenty year old who is in college but has horrid things said about her. These horrid things are repulsive and the people who say them to her are just bullies! But this is what happens in real life. Lia woks for her parents and is the only daughter which means she is protected very much. But how would she cope dating an Olympian? I loved reading the book to find out how far she would go to be with her crush! She is snarky, but I loved how she acted. It was such a real reaction, especially the tongue-tied behaviour! Jay is an Olympian. An Olympian who got bad press and needs to get his head back into the sport he loves so much. But in a sleepy little town in Texas, he meets Lia and they seem perfect together to me. Reading how Jay and his friends/other swimmers, interact with each other is hilarious as they seem more like brothers than friends. They all want to have fun and enjoy the spotlight whilst they can and I cannot wait to read more about them. I loved how Magan made Jay seem like a normal geeky lad who got nervous and said silly things, as it made him feel real to me and showed me that he wasn't perfect, indictments aside. I loved how the story didn't just focus on Lia and Jay, but you had other little plots i.e. Sofie and her little 'fling', the mean girl and her possy and the media. The bloody media! I loved finding out little snippets about Lia's family, as you can sort of understand their protectiveness over their only daughter, but they push it out to the extreme sometimes. This was the perfect NA read for me and I loved reading about real and silly people! Well done Magan!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Wicked Intentions (Steele Security) (Volume 4); Author: Visit Amazon's A. D. Justice Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. A.D. Justice has delivered another fantastic book! I love reading about the men of Steele Security and this book was just as good, if not better than the books before. I loved how the last book ended, as you had no clue that Rebel had a wife! I was excited to find out what was going on between him and his wife, but also to read more about Rashad and his vengeance kept me on the edge of my hypothetical seat. The book was filled with memories, drama, romance and devotion. There are sad times in the book, but then there are times of complete joy and happiness. Heather is a lady who was in love with her best friend from childhood. They were so close, defying the odds and what people thought, up until tragedy struck. Her passion for being a nurse is wonderful especially reading about the chatter she had with Noah's father, Steve. Her love for her family and her husband is wonderful, as it is obvious how much she loves them even though her parents didn't approve of her marriage. But the one thing that shone clearly to me, was how much she loved her husband and how their love gets stronger every day. The distance is a problem, but they make it work and I loved seeing how they did it. Rebel, or Braxton, is a man who doesn't reveal much. So imagine everyone's shock when he announces he has a wife! I was shocked, but understood why he didn't make the announcement once you read the book through. My heart broke for him when you found out what happened to him and his wife at 18, but they have grown stronger because of it. He determination to stop the terrorists was commendable and kept the drama high, especially when you didn't know what was going to happen next. The love he has for Heather and his team is evidently clear throughout the book, especially when his loved ones become threatened. The book was a perfect read, with a fantastic ending and a great epilogue. I cannot wait for book 5, and maybe read more about Silas and the rest of the Steele gang!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hostile Workplace: A Breaking the Rules Novel (Breaking the Rules Series); Author: Visit Amazon's A.M. Madden Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. AM Madden is one of my favourite authors at the moment and Hostile Workplace just highlights why I love her work. Her stories always keep me entertained and make me enjoy her world. Her characters are well developed and are very life-like which makes the story even better than I first thought. I loved how you meet Rebecca and Marco plus the rest of the family. I loved the secondary characters, especially Liam who I really want to learn more about! Sam is a man who is loyal to a fault but doesn't know whether he is strong enough to move on. I felt so sorry for his history, but then on the other hand, his inability to move on from the past kinda annoyed me. I loved his alpha behaviour and his dominant ways, which made me smile. I also loved his complete vulnerability, especially when he was faced with something he'd never done. He had his work attitude, which was professional and driven towards success, but then he had his normal attitude, which was fun, domineering and sexy. He loves to enjoy himself, although he hasn't seemed to enjoy himself very much. His behaviour towards his relationship was heartbreaking, but I'm glad that he is understanding what he wants. Judy is a lady who knows who she wants and what she wants. Her professional attitude is very feisty, which makes her encounters with Sam in the office very tense, but she is also a shy, vulnerable lady who wants the best for herself. Again, her past made my heart cry for her, but I was hoping she got the best that she deserved. I loved her encounters with Sam once he'd broken up with his fiancee, as they were hot and sexy, but also fun and thrilling. But Lydia... Oh Lydia. Mistakes and circumstances are the reason that they separated, but what happens when a job opportunity brings them together? You get fireworks and the fine line between love and hate. Their interactions are tense, but with AM Madden, you always get the fireworks! How could you not with two former sweethearts? This book is a must read and isn't necessary to read after Love on the Horizon, but it'll help with the secondary characters in Rebecca and Marco if you do. 5 stars is not good enough for this book, as it's worth many, many more!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Immortal Envy (Immortal Obsessions) (Volume 1); Author: Visit Amazon's A. D. Justice Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. I'm not a big paranormal romance lover, but this book had me intrigued. I liked how the story was focusing around two vampire brothers, through blood and turning, and one British lady who captivated both of them. I loved Slade immediately and I had an instant distaste for Ramses. They are both gentlemen, but Slade is a better man all round. I haven't read much historical stories, but this didn't feel like a traditional historical story. It had a very modern feel, as well as showing how advanced some people were in the 1700's. AD Justice completely enveloped me into her story and I found myself reading until the end. For me, there could have been a few more descriptions of the events that had taken place, especially regarding Alea and her change. I didn't feel like Ramses obsession with her was described or understood well enough to follow his thoughts, but you had enough to keep you engaged. I liked Alea as the heroine, as she was a young lady who found out some upsetting news but wanted to keep her best friend safe. To do that, she moved with her parents to America, and there is where she blossomed into the best sort of lady possible. Her feisty behaviour was a pleasure to read about, especially once she matures, as it proves how loyal Alea is, as well as her passion for those she loves. Slade is the sort of man every woman loves reading about. He sexy, sweet, loyal, kind and one hell of a vampire. He has something hidden inside of him which he controls well, until his immortal love is threatened. Then you see a man, or vampire, on a mission. Slade has a successful business with his brother after years of working hard. Slade tried his best to keep a lid on his brother's issues, but when he goes to a ball instead of Ramses, he meets his immortal love. The young and beautiful Alea. But what happens when the one person who you trusted for years, turns on you and your wife? Do you try to save him or rip his head off? The passion and uncertainty you experience reading this will throw you into their shoes to feel everything they must be feeling. A war is brewing, but who will survive? A good read, which just needed a little more to make it a 5 star read for me. But it's certainly enjoyable, with two hot immortal men; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Plowed; Author: Visit Amazon's Kristen Luciani Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. This book is one of my favourite reads of this year! I loved the tension between Dax and Sara, the drama which affects everyone, the plot line and the desire and lust which is alive throughout the story. I didn't see some of the incidents coming, especially the one involving the drummer of the support band. Kristen had a way with words to weave a story which engages the reader. I gasped, sighed, cried and laughed my way through the book. Sara is a lady running from her past in order to have a better future. She is determined to work as hard as she can to prove herself to herself and the doubters. She is spunky, feisty, hard-working and loyal, especially to her clients. But what happens when you plow into the one you weren't expecting? Fireworks. That's what happens. Daxton, or Dax, is a haunted man who plays the guitar and sings. But behind his persona on stage is a man who is empty inside. Especially with his father being a well-known musician and his mother disappearing. He is cheeky, confident but also vulnerable and heart brokenly alone. But when is gets plowed into, all those negative emotions start to disappear quickly and soon the woman becomes permanent fixture in his mind. Such a worthwhile book for 5 stars, as it was engaging and captivated me. The drama just added to suspense and kept me on my toes.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Thrust; Author: Visit Amazon's Sybil Bartel Page; Review: This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review. Sybil is a new author to me and Sybil has now become my favourite author of the year. Her writing style absorbed me into the story so fully I had to finish the book in one sitting. Thrust was a book which captivates you and transports you to Sybil's world. Reading the book allowed me to feel every emotion that Olivia felt. Sybil has such an easy writing style that flows beautifully and has the ability to weave a world which you wish you could live in. Alex is a manwhore. Pure and simple. But I loved him for it. Finding out a bit of his background made me see that he made the best choice considering his situation. I would have loved to find out a bit more about his history, as it was glanced upon, as I feel that having a bit more of his history would have made the book even more superb. Alex is a cocky man who has ladies desperate to book his services, but the moment he laid eyes Olivia he started to change. He becomes a sexy sweetheart who opens his heart fully. After he did this, Alex became the hottest guy of the year for me! Olivia is a woman who has had her life ruled by guilt since her brother and is trying to provide support for people going through what he brother went through. She is in love with her best friend who doesn't notice her and has a girlfriend and she doesn't know what to do. But what happens when two women fight over a man in the middle of your charity fundraiser? Trouble, you get trouble with a side of hot and steamy sex. My heart broke when the funding for her charity was removed but a drunk Olivia was hilarious. Olivia had issues to work through and watching her try and accept that the terrible incident which happened in her past, was not her fault. Alex and Olivia are one of the hottest couples I've read about this year. Their chemistry is off the scales and I loved their interactions. The path they take is wonderful but sad in parts and I'm so glad that I got the chance to get to know Olivia, Alex, and their friends. The secondary characters just completed the story for me, bringing drama, mystery and love into the mix. A worthwhile read that every person should read!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: No Life But This; Author: Visit Amazon's Brenda Margriet Page; Review: This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review. Abigail is a lady who was created her life to everyone else, but when her mother dies, she decides that she needs to do something for herself. Abigail soon ends up on an adventure holiday in the Portuguese island of So Miguel. As you read, you start to understand that her life has been sheltered, continuing to be with her partner as well. So why not take an adventure holiday? Being an asthmatic, I understood completely her problems which faced her, but the determination she emanated throughout the trip was fantastic. Throughout the book, you can read about her coming into herself, and what a feisty, determined lady Abigail is! I loved her spunk and passion, but also her promise to live life to the full and not live in a bubble anymore. Santos is a gorgeous man with a lovely sister and mother. Together they run a family business which involves a B&B and running an adventure holiday. He doesn't want to settle down yet, but loves the steady rotations of visitors which they take on tours of their island. He is a man who knows what he wants, but the unexpected comes in the form of Abigail. He is a confident man, but has that sweet side to cause your heart to melt. Santos and Abigail together. Wow! I loved them. They're a passionate set of people and I loved the tender but snarky comments which pushed each other. I liked how Brenda wrote in third person but from a dual POV, as you got inside both of the character's view points. This enhanced the book for me and allowed me to enjoy the book from both perspectives. Brenda is a new author to me, but I highly enjoyed her work and will be reading more of it in the future.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Duplicity; Author: Visit Amazon's Lisa J Hobman Page; Review: This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review. Wow. This book blew me away and I'm struggling to think of what to write as a way of expressing how much I loved reading about Star and Finlay. This book was one which I think will stick with me for a while due to it's easy to follow story, a quirky but amazing woman and then a sexy but shy gentleman. The Scottish setting was unusual and I enjoyed seeing Edinburgh from a different perspective. Lisa has a way of placing you into the story and making it seem that you were there and watching the story unfold before your eyes. This book had everything I look for: drama, romance, a sexy guy, a wonderful woman, hidden talents and a bit of shyness. Star is an American who had her heart set on Europe but fell for Edinburgh. She is a lady who likes to stand-out, and yet doesn't want people to know her secret. Star is a determined to keep her secret just that, but she never seems to want to have more than she has. This to me is completely refreshing and demonstrates how much of a strong lady she is. But when she meets Fin? Wow! I loved them together and my heart broke when people interfered in their relationship. They work together and I adored reading about Star and her life. Her best friend and boss, Alec, is amazing and is that gay friend everyone wishes they have! Finlay, or Fin, is a man who has tried his hardest to conform to his parents whims to prove how much he loves them. But as you read, he'd literally do anything. So what happens when things don't go to plan? You get fired. When Fin's father fired him, I gasped because I couldn't believe it happened. But like a phoenix, Fin rose from the ashes and is doing something he always wanted to do. And he is amazing at it! This made me smile, because everyone should do something they love. Fin is the sort of man we all want. He's loyal, sexy, determined, but shy and sweet at the same time. I wanted to slap him after the first night with Star, but he more than makes up for it. My heart broke when his family life was revealed, but I was so glad that he had someone in his life who helped him be himself. This is a must read about a Scottish man and an American woman! What could be better?; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Azure Kingdom (The Iridescent Realm) (Volume 1); Author: Visit Amazon's Michelle Dare Page; Review: This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review. I love Michelle Dare's contemporary romance stories and I tried to really enjoy this story, but unfortunately, fantasy isn't for me. The romance was lovely and I really liked Oliver at first, but Lucas had a pull over Alison that was a sweet bond, but an awesome one two. What I found a little hard to wrap my head around was Alison's indecision with meeting her father because he'd killed someone, but Lucas lead an army. I just felt that was too absurd. I liked Alison besides that and felt like she handled her world being turned upside down extremely well. Alison and Lucas together had an inst-everything, and to me I found it endearing but there were moments when I wanted to stop them both and see how Lucas was feeling about Alison truthfully because their first interaction wasn't a good meeting in the end. I did love that Lucas had a pet dragon, because who wouldn't want a pet dragon!? Tali is described so beautifully and Michelle has a way of writing the description that makes you feel as if Tali is real. This made the story come alive for me, even though it was a genre I don't really enjoy. I urge everyone to give the book a go, because you may like it more than I did. Michelle really does have a wonderful writing style which draws you into her worlds no matter where they are.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Love from Left Field; Author: Visit Amazon's Megan Ryder Page; Review: This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review. I loved the first book and couldn't wait to read about Miranda. I took a shine to her in the first book and wanted to know more about her. Well I got my wish and I really enjoyed living through Miranda and how her life would change. She is a feisty young lady when her team are in trouble and willing to make the radical changes needed. But what got me was how her loyalties were tied between her father and then the team. She is a passionate lady, proud of her achievements but she deserved every moment of her success. I was shocked at what happened to her near the end, because I did not see that coming. My heart broke for her because it was something I would hate to happen. Her and Lucas though.... Wow! They were hot and steamy. There were some issues with hidden agendas and I kept hoping they sorted it out because I loved them together. Lucas. Wow! He is a man on a mission. And I was unsure of his motives at first. Revenge or truly putting the past in the past. I liked how broody he was, and how he didn't mind jumping into the job of turning the Knight's fortune around with both feet. Him as the mascot was sweet and hilarious at the same time, but it made me a nicer and more genuine person in my eyes. He slowly started to see that his past wasn't as true as he wanted it to be, so my heart hurt at him having to come to deal with the truths of the matter. The secondary characters of Miranda's parents, Lucas's mom, Cole, Stacia and Jason really brought the book full circle and ensured I understood every little thing, but also showing me how vital having a close-knit team is. Megan has a lovely writing style which captures you very quickly and ensnares you until you finished the book. The book was descriptive and creative, with a good amount of dialogue to make you feel like you were in the story itself. It isn't necessary to read the first book, but it'll just help with some of the secondary characters.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Wicked Shadows (Steele Security) (Volume 5); Author: Visit Amazon's A. D. Justice Page; Review: This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review. This has taken me a day to write, because I'm still trying to process how amazing this book was! Shadow has been my favourite throughout the Steele Security series, as I love a good mystery and he was one. This book enthralled me, shocked me, had me on the edge of the seat and also had my crying. It really was a roller coaster of emotions, but it was worth it! AD Justice has a wonderful imagination and her world seems completely real. The book didn't feel like I was spending hours reading as I was caught up in the book. I liked how descriptive the book is, but also how it had a little bit of everything in the book, from the Hollywood lifestyle to MC to the Steele Security team and their loved ones. The characters were all described well and the story flowed very well. You got a good view into the two main characters lives but also how much they felt and worked. Shadow, or Devon Kane, had captured my interest in the other books, so I was desperate to know more about him. And in Wicked Shadows, you get that and more! you find that he's a passionate man, loyal to a fault but also determined to get the girl. You see how far he'd go to protect his girl, but also what sacrifices he's made and will make to make this all happen. The twist at the end had me in tears and then shock when a reveal happens! I couldn't believe AD Justice could do that! But it was a twist I didn't see coming and didn't want to have happen. So congratulations on making the book so memorable for all the right reasons! Elle Sinclair was the typical girl next door who had been in love with her brother's best friend all her life. But how do you give up the man once you've had him? Her devotion to Shadow was so heart-breakingly sweet because she is loyal to him even when she doesn't know everything about him. I did find myself a few times wishing she had moved on, but reading about them together showed me why they were amazing together. Elle is a very famous lady who has been in the public eye for the majority of her life but wants to get out to spend her life with the man she loves. But what happens when Elle disappears and the movie studio try to cover it up? You get mystery, hot alpha men trying to find her, action, love, loyalties tested and tears to be shed. Her journey and refusal to leave the man she loved made the book a 5* read because it had every thing I love to read about. If you loved the previous Steele Security books, the characters and then crazy Liz, then you need to read this book and find out why Shadow is the way he is and; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: I Wanna Get Laid by Kade; Author: Visit Amazon's Nikki Ashton Page; Review: I was given an ARC to provide a voluntary review at my own will. This was the first book written by Nikki and Victoria I've read and I was not disappointed at all. This book was a new storyline for me and it intrigued me from the get go. It was a novel storyline which involved a homeless man being offered a chance to get off the streets and live life in luxury. What could go wrong?! Their writing style is so engaging and really does hook you from the first chapter. I laughed during the book, prayed and gasped at some of the deceit which is described. Most of all, I was hoping for a good outcome of the book. One I wasn't sure was going to happen. Kade. He was a man who'd lived on the streets for three years. A man most people wouldn't glance at, but it was amazing how many people did look at him once he'd had a makeover. He is a sensitive man, with a loyal dog, who lives with his regret from college years. But one lady sees him underneath the grime and doesn't let that stop their growing friendship from blooming. Watching him return to society and see him change during the reality TV show was eye opening, because his emotions were potent and real that you could feel them through the words on the page. I did want to shout at him at one point of the book, because I knew how he felt about Daisy and he seemed to be messing it up. So did he truly mess it up or was it just a ruse for the fans of the show, 'I Wanna Get Laid By Kade'? You should read this book to find out! Daisy is a lady I'd happily fight for and would want desperately as my friend. She is a lovely lady who puts up with an evil boss in order to fund her true dreams to work with animals. But what made me love her the most is the fact that she sees the man beneath the crap which is Kade. She does it without showing any disgust and it warms my heart to know that this story focuses around a story like this. Daisy gets put into the reality show because of Kade, but I loved seeing her adapt to the challenges she faced and the loyalty towards Kade and her parents as well. The love of animals Daisy has is also something that I really liked about her, because nobody or nothing is below her. Daisy and Kade together have to be one of my favourite couple of the year so far. They have so much chemistry, even before Kade gets a makeover, that made me sizzle and pray they ended up together. The drama and twist really kept me on edge and loved how I didn't see a lot of them coming. Together they had barriers to overcome, but I had to continue reading to find out if they overcame them. This book; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Through the Glass; Author: Visit Amazon's Lisa J. Hobman Page; Review: I was given a copy of the book to provide a voluntary review at my own will. Lisa has a wonderful writing style and this book is just a continuation of her style. This is a story of love, loss, betrayal, suspense and finding your soulmate. Through the Glass takes you on a journey of how two people reconnect after years apart and a messy break up. You experience sorrow, sadness, joy, anticipation and love whilst you read the book and that is why I fell in love with the book so fast. The story is told through two perspectives, both Flick and Jim's, but it seems to focus more on Jim. The time jumping takes a little to get used to, but once you have, the book flows beautifully and the story becomes what you need to complete. I liked the suspense element of the book, as it allowed you to see how dark the art world can get when people become desperate. The other characters in the book were wonderful, especially Flick's father and Jim's dog, and I'd love to read another book to see how Flick and Jim are doing. Jim, or James, is a Scottish man who went back to the place which made him happiest after his life shattered. London wasn't his scene but the beautiful Highland village he moves to is more his style. I loved how Jim was an intelligent man who didn't want to fit in with other people's perceptions of how his life should be. He is a free spirit who would just like to love his soulmate and live a simple life whilst his soulmate enjoys herself and is free. He is a warm-hearted man who reads and can write, is friendly with everyone and is a gorgeous hunk! I took to him immediately and wanted to cuddle him when his world comes crashing down around him. Flick, or Felicity, is a lady who is driven to achieve the best. Her drive is wonderful but then at the same time, it's damaging her her life and herself. During her university career, she is a free spirit who is free from her suffocating life of being perfect. But what happens when those claws of perfection and reaching for the highest achievements start to ruin the one good thing in your life? You leave them and try to move on. A tragedy makes Flick re-evaluate all she knows after a secret of her mother's comes to light. Flick is a passionate lady who is loyal to her family and yet not herself. The love she has for her family is immense and yet she doesn't love or respect herself enough. Flick and Jim together though! Wow. They are truly meant for one another, but can a person who has been looking through the glass, really change and start living the life she was meant to have? A 5* read and I'd recommend the book to any person who loves a good romance or a second chance story.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Beautiful Imperfection; Author: Visit Amazon's Hayley Oakes Page; Review: I was given a copy of the book to provide a voluntary review at my own will. This book was one I loved the blurb of the book and was intrigued by how the story would play out. Reading the book was a bit slow at first, because you had to grieve the loss which Cassidy has gone through. Moving back to her home town was hard, but what was harder was facing up the possibility that her life will never be the same as before. Cassidy is a strong lady who has been beaten down to the point she can't see any future for herself. But meeting a man from her past who challenges her and pushes her past her own boundaries. Cassidy has two wonderful parents, but they aren't conventional in any sense of the word, but they support Cassidy and want her to heal in the right way. Her father was the parent I preferred as you could see the love he has for his family and he supported any choice his family made, especially with Cassidy. I enjoyed reading about Cassidy and her family because it shows how you have to live every day for yourself and no-one else. Other people's opinions don't mean anything and gossip can be just that. Desi is a man who is haunted by his past and his families past. Coming home was the only option for him and he refused to let anyone close to him. But he sees Cassidy and sees something in her that can be healed, so he makes it his mission to help her recover in a positive way. but what happens when his darkness is infiltrated by the light Cassidy seems to develop over her time healing at home. He is a fantastic personal trainer but you can tell his past haunts him and refuses to let people help him heal. When he finally tells Cassidy his secret, I was shocked about how he felt. Watching how Desi would close himself off made my heart break, but his reasoning was completely understandable. Cassidy and Desi as friends were fantastic, as they just worked. Neither one pushed the other's emotions too far and neither one backed down from a challenge. I was shouting at one point for them to get together and I was relieved when they did. But can you keep your heart from getting involved when you try not to? They were hot together and hotter after everything was revealed near the end of the book! The book has everything in which I love the most. There were secrets, romance, sibling love/annoyance, passion and weird parents. The twist at the end of the book I did not expect but it made the book five stars for me and more. I recommend people read this and fall in love with Desi like I did!; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: InterDesign Cora Glass Soap Dispenser Pump and Sponge Caddy – Kitchen Sink Organizer, Clear/Satin; Brand: InterDesign; Review: The top falls off if hit too hard, and there's no drainage hold for the sponge holder. Overall, it's fine. Edited after owning it for 2.5 years: after one year, the adhesive holding the sponge compartment to the main bottle dissolved, so they're totally separate now. Around the same time, the finish on the nozzle (which, unlike the rest of the top, is plastic rather than metal) began to chip off. Now we have a white plastic nozzle that is dislodged any time that anyone touches it (which has resulted in some frantic kitchen floor searching) attached to a bronzed metal bottle top.

Title: Flourish: A Visionary New Understanding of Happiness and Well-being; Author: Visit Amazon's Martin E. P. Seligman Page; Review: I love Marty Seligman for having the wisdom to bring together the elements of what would become the new field of positive psychology birthed by he and Christopher Peterson. I don't know Marty personally but I know I would like him and value his thoughts and ideas. Marty claims to have always been a maverick, but his "maverickness" has taken place within a closed, bureaucratic, monopolistic system. However, the "creation" of the new discipline of positive psychology was and is a breakthrough and departure from established ways of thinking. So Marty is a maverick in many senses of the word. I suspect, however, that Marty believes that only people with established credentials should be the purveyors of innovation in education. I hope not, but I suspect so. (Einstein said "Authority slavery is one of the biggest enemies of truth. Long live insolence! It is my guardian angel in this world." My only concern with this book, as well as most of Marty's writings, is the arrogance and elitism which thread through his thinking. I'm sure he is totally unaware of these attributes since he knows nothing else. People who are part of the traditional education bureaucracy and most especially those who are part of the "Ivy League" schools are insufferable in their views of their own superiority. Higher education in this county is totally out of control and the last thing it needs is more taxpayer money. Far less money, as in none at all, would benefit society enormously and break the monopoly on this self-serving cartel which serves itself before it serves students, parents, and society. There is an arrogance and elitism in every established discipline including law, education, medicine, and many others. Whatever excellence that exists in any of these fields and others is due to competition, innovation, independent thinking, and rebelling against the arrogance of established systems and their power and authority. There are better books on flourishing and positive psychology. Among them are Chris Peterson's Primer in Positive Psychology, Barbara Fredrickson's Positivity, and Sonja L.'s The How of Happiness. Nonetheless, this is a good book and an important contribution to the field by one of its co-founders, a man, who, in spite of my observations above, I hold in high esteem. All established institutions, systems, and professions suffer from resistance to innovation and change. This is one of the characteristics of human nature, that is, to suppress competition, and to oppose change, progress and innovation. There are reasons for these human tendencies, a prominent one is birth order. ("...firstborn children are more likely to identify with authority whereas their younger siblings are predisposed to rise against it." But, that is a topic for another place and time. Well done Marty!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Curious?: Discover the Missing Ingredient to a Fulfilling Life; Author: Todd Kashdan PhD; Review: Generally speaking, I like this book. However, to me there are a few things that are troubling. Not troubling in a global sense, but troubling as in a little annoying. My first observation is that I don't think Todd fully understands the science of positive psychology. My second observation is that Todd seems to know very little about the science of evolutionary psychology. My third observation is that I think Todd has been negatively influenced by his training as a clinical psychologist (the study of human misery) in a way that has blinded him to what positive psychology and evolutionary psychology are really all about. Todd writes on pages 12 and 13, "In the often one-sided focus on positive experiences and strengths, positive psychology, and happiness researchers underestimate the the value of negative feelings, uncertainty, and stress." Nothing could be further from the truth. Those who study positive psychology are well aware of negative feelings, uncertainty, and stress, but we also know how powerful they are and intrude whether we want them to or not. The science of positive psychology fully embraces the ubiquity and power of the negative. The best antidote for the negative is the science of positive psychology. These negatives do not go away; they are merely managed. No positive psychology scholar or researcher ignores negative thoughts and feelings as the author says they do! He recommends that "Both positive and negative need to be addressed." Todd, they are addressed directly by the interventions of the science of positive psychology! What is so ironic is that in the process of taking shots at positive psychology and ignoring the science of evolutionary psychology, Todd hails the virtue of curiosity, which is a positive psychology intervention, although he avoided saying so! On page 23, Todd begins a discussion of "Curiosity Is a Counterbalance to Certainty, Closure, and Confidence." On page 24, he writes that "...I need to be clear that none of us should be embarrassed or blame ourselves if we feel the need to be certain." The drive for certainty is hard-wired into our brains. We know unequivocally from the science of evolutionary psychology that humans have a brain module for certainty and closure. I agree that curiosity is laudable and should be pursued and expanded and I agree that we should develop this skill, but in the process Todd throws out the baby with the bath water in making statements about positive psychology and our genetically-determined human tendencies without proper knowledge or nuance. Todd writes an entire book about curiosity, which is a positive psychology intervention, but then writes about it as if it is not! I'll write more later as I continue to plow through the book!; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow; Author: Visit Amazon's Yuval Noah Harari Page; Review: There are so many problems with this book I hardly know where to begin. The book seeks to redefine "religion" in a way that is contrary to the normal usage of the word. The redefinition amounts to a distortion. The word "religion" has always included belief in a god, gods, or supernatural being. An organized system of belief and a social support organization that believes in a god, gods, or some supernatural being is a religion. An organized system of belief and a social support organization that DOES NOT believe in god, gods, or some supernatural being is NOT a religion; it is something else; it is a club, a system of organized thought, an ideology, a set of ideas, a political party or organization, a business, or an institution, or whatever. The author seems to think that any belief system maintained fervently has somehow crossed the barrier and has become a religion. Fervent belief is not the yardstick for the common usage of the word. The absurdity does not stop there. The author goes on to tell us that science is a religion, and next that humanism is as well. While halfway through the book, I'm beginning to have trouble reading the continuing growth of absurdities he presents. More to come...; Rating: 1.0/5.0
Title: How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain; Author: Visit Amazon's Lisa Feldman Barrett Page; Review: My fields are evolutionary psychology, positive psychology, and neuropsychology. In addition to teaching these subjects, I also have a private counseling practice where I help people learn to distinguish between their emotions and reason. Most of the problems we experience in our lives and relationships occur because we fail to regulate our emotions through the use of reason. Buddha's metaphor of the elephant is representative of our powerful emotions and the rider on the elephant represents our reason. The elephant is big and powerful as are our emotions. Ninety-five percent of our thoughts and behaviors stem from our emotions. Only 5% come from our reason. Moment-by-moment, day-by-day, we humans are in a constant battle to control and use our emotions constructively while trying to prevent them from creating problems for us. People who seek out counseling do so because their emotions have gotten them into trouble and created difficulties for them in their relationships with others and life in general. The decisions we make about our behavior occur at the intersection of emotion and reason and determine our path in life. Evolutionary psychology teaches us that human behavior is the product of genetic predispositions AND environment. Environment is everything that happens to us from conception on throughout the rest of our lives. We have ancient brains in modern bodies. We have brain modules that we have inherited from our ancestors over the last 6 million years of human history. These genetic predispositions are very powerful and create the foundation or framework upon which environment acts to create human thought and behavior. Evolutionary natural selection is a feedback loop that works on genetic predispositions, brain modules to further modify these genetic predispositions, which we then pass on to our children. Human behavior is always the product of genetic predispositions and environment. Evolutionary psychology is a relatively new science dating to the 1970's, but only in the last twenty years has gained traction. In reading the introduction, the author outlines her general thesis, with which I disagree. The author appears to be writing from the perspective of the Social Science Model which places too much emphasis on culture and virtually no emphasis on genetic predispositions. Evolutionary psychology rejects the Social Sciences Model which has prevailed in academia for most of the twentieth century. The Social Science Model claims that human behavior is primarily the product of culture. That theory has been debunked with powerful scientific research evidence from evolutionary psychology. Many social scientists still cling to this theory in spite of evidence to the contrary (confirmation bias). The author explains her classical view of emotion and then rejects it. She then presents her theory of constructed emotion and argues it is the best theory to explain human emotion. Both the classical view and the constructed theory of emotion are incomplete. Only evolutionary psychology properly accounts for human behavior as a product of both genetic predispositions and environment (culture). The author also makes a claim in the introduction regarding doctor's failing to properly diagnose heart problems in women because they dismiss the symptoms as anxiety.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: The 5 Personality Patterns: Your Guide to Understanding Yourself and Others and Developing Emotional Maturity; Author: Visit Amazon's Steven Kessler Page; Review: I was eager to read this book after noticing so many 5-star reviews! And, as I began reading, I was intrigued with this author's approach and direction on this topic. I was doing well until I reached page 29 where he wrote: "1. Embodiment - Claiming the Body. Embodiment takes place when the incoming spirit/soul is able to orient itself to the physical world, settle into the physical body, and claim it. We might say that the child's incoming spirit attaches to the physical world." There is no spirit; there is no soul. These are ancient concepts that preceded the modern world but are still held onto by those who lack sufficient knowledge of psychology, neuroscience, evolutionary psychology and other scientific disciplines. People of this persuasion are also those who have not studied logic, reasoning, or the scientific method, that is, those who do not think clearly. I then read the author's bio at the back of the book. I found the problem. "Ennegram, NLP, Thought Field Therapy, and EFT." Furthermore, "he pursued various spiritual ... practices ... shamanism in the lineage of Grandfather Two Bears and the Southern Seers tradition." OMG! This book's author knows nothing about evolutionary psychology, neuropsychology, neuroscience, brain plasticity, or anything about modern psychology. He is lost in the world of fantasy and mysticism, which is fine. Just don't make claims to know things and imply that there is any science underlying any of it. It's all woo woo! Into the trash can the book went. I don't want anyone else to read this fictitious work and confuse it with science or psychology.; Rating: 2.0/5.0 | amazon_books |

Title: Nancy Greene s Cahilty Hotel Suites; City: Sun Peaks British Columbia; Review: I rented a Studio with Efficiency Kitchen for 8 days end of February 2015. The location is really ski-in ski-out, the people at the reception desk are helpful and very friendly. I complained one day about the noise in the adjacent room and they solved the problem right away. The rental price is correct, the exercise room is well equipped, and the hot tub is very relaxing after a day outside. Nancy Green and her husband are very much involved in promoting this beutiful resort, she is skiing with small groups 3 afternoons/week, there are plenty of activities for all ages and levels. The only desappointment - the kitchen corner had only a microawe, no possibility of preparing anything on a stove, nor ustensils for. Good place for families.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Casa Alta Habana; City: Havana Ciudad de la Habana Province Cuba; Review: My husband and I we spent four nights at Casa Alta and we are highly recommending this place. The owners, Romey and Rodnier and their team are very friendly, enthusiastic, attentionate, they make you feel welcome. The location is great, few minutes away from Plaza Vieja, the rooms are large, clean, comfortable and nicely decorated, the breakfast is delicious. It was a great pleasure to see these young people smiling and available for their guests as if we were part of their family. When we arrived from Varadero they waited for us downstairs and carried our luggage up to the second floor. They are real entrepreneurs, in the process of enhancing the interior and the terrace on the roof. We wish them best of luck.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Roc Arenas Doradas; City: Varadero Matanzas Province Cuba; Review: I spent almost 3 weeks with my husband there and we were very pleased with our stay. The Cuban style hotel is located in a big parc, close to the beach. The room was spacious, clean, the staff very friendly. Good restaurant, Philippe, the chef, provided a nice variety of food every day. One has to keep in mind that Cuba is still a socialist country,that people are rather poor, so do not expect to find the equivalent of a four star hotel similar to resorts in free countries. The hotel provides free bus fares to travel to the city of Varadero. Tipping is a very good idea. We had only problems with the internet connections. You have to pay a 2 CUC for 1 hour. Wi-fi not available. The furniture in the room quite old.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Raw Meaty Bones Promote Health; Author: Visit Amazon's Tom Lonsdale Page; Review: I love the idea of a raw diet for dogs and I agree with his views on commercial petfood. I just got really sick of reading about dental issues. It seems like 80% of this book is about dental hygeine. The book should be named "Raw Meaty Bones promote Dental Hygeine", not "Health". I also feel he should've given more in-depth information on what to feed/ how to feed. He is also a proponent of feeding wings and backs alone- that is just TOO MUCH BONE. If you look at a whole prey animal, the percentage of bone in it will be 8%-12%. Chicken wings/ backs alone are 50% bone. They are not a biologically appropriate way of feeding! He does deserve credit for stating that whole prey is best, though. Lonsdale has great ideas, but he should've published a separate book about canine dental health, or not gone off about it so much, and his specific diet recommendations are lacking/ somewhat misleading.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Raw Dog Food: Make It Easy for You and Your Dog; Author: Carina Beth Macdonald; Review: The author is a big fan of plain old chicken wings and backs. Chicken backs seem the form a huge portion of her dogs' diets. Chicken wings and backs alone are WAY too bony. She is doing it to be as cheap as possible and in the process is feeding an incomplete diet. Your dogs' poops should NOT be white and chalky- that is a sign the dog is eating too much bone. It should also be mentioned somewhere in the book that raw pork can cause trichinosis and that freezing it for a month first will prevent this. She just recommends raw pork. Period. Yes, there is some good information in this book, but you need to do more research on your own and not feed by her personal dogs' menu, as it is lacking. This is a nice starter book to get over your fears of raw feeding, but that's about it.; Rating: 2.0/5.0
Title: The Complete Herbal Handbook for the Dog and Cat; Author: Juliette Levy; Review: First I will give the author due credit for her general ideas on natural rearing, caution of over-vaccination, recommendation of a natural raw diet and advice to provide plenty of exercise, sunshine and love. With that said, some of her suggestions are iffy at best: The suggestion to not spay and neuter is very ignorant. Overpopulation in dogs and cats leads to euthanasia, homeless pets, pets with bad homes because they were given away to anybody, etc,etc. There is no side effect of spaying and neutering that even comes close to being as harmful to our pets as the side effects of overpopulation. The author recommends burying meat in the backyard as a healthful alternative to freezing. She recommends feeding grains with the raw bones, so that the grains can protect the stomach/intestines from any sharp bone fragments. To expect that to work is just silly, and dogs do not need grains in their diets. She recommends feeding dried fruits,specifically including raisins, but raisins are toxic to dogs! She recommends red raspberry leaf for pregnant females but this has been scientifically proven to cause a higher fetal mortality rate, and it induces uterine contractions which is not always a good thing. She does have some good advice, but I wouldn't blindly trust all of the information contained in this book. Natural rearing is best for your dog, but definitely do your own research and make your own informed decisions.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Genetics: An Introduction for Dog Breeders; Author: Visit Amazon's Jackie Isabell Page; Review: Every single dedicated breeder should have the knowledge found in this book. In addition to important information on genetics, it has very interesting information on the evolution of dogs and a great chapter on behavior which even goes into detail on the stages of development in puppies and effects of environment on behavior. There is excellent information about hereditary problems, genetic disorders, and even mate selection. There is a list at the back of every breed with their hereditary disorders listed and mode of inheritance when known, which should be especially helpful for breeders. There is also breed-specific information on coat colors and alleles- which, by the way, used to look like an exotic foreign language to me and now makes sense! I had a very simple understanding of Mendelian genetics before I read this (from reading "The Joy of Breeding Your Own Show Dog by Anne Seranne- another great book.) This book made my understanding complete. Before I read this book I thought that genetics were going to be difficult and boring to learn, but the author does a great job of keeping the subject interesting. The preface mentions that the author had her breeder friend, who was confused and intimidated by genetics, read the manuscript and point out areas that were especially confusing to a beginner or areas that needed clarification, etc. Maybe this is one of the reasons why this book is so effective. A great, absolute must-have book that I highly recommend!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: An Eye For a Dog: Illustrated Guide to Judging Purebred Dogs; Author: Visit Amazon's Robert W Cole Page; Review: I tend to be highly critical of books I read, but I can't criticize this book! It has made a huge difference in my ability to see details and critique dogs. I have a much better understanding of proper gait and a crystal clear understanding of "type". I can quickly see balance and actually pinpoint areas that make a dog off-balance, instead of just feeling that "there's something off about this dog..." I can also find tiny flaws in dogs I previously thought were perfect- This book is an invaluable aid for any breeder/exhibitor to prevent kennel blindness, aid in selection of mates, understand judge's decisions, etc. In the process of learning about structure and gait, I also gained many, many little tid bits of information about a lot of different breeds and now I can watch a dog show like westminster and actually know what to look for in most of the breeds. This book is fun to read, since you compare two sketches of dogs that look almost identical and pick which one you like more, which flaws they have, etc. Then you get to read the author's pick and explanation and see if you did a good job critiquing the dogs. I got more and more accurate as I went through the book, so I know that it definitely helped me develop an "eye for a dog". I love this book, will definitely read it again and highly recommend it!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

But I'm not going to give this book a bad review because for anyone that can eat chicken, pork and shrimp I'm sure this cookbook would be great and I LOVE her personal take on it- her stories and the easy way she lays out how to follow the diet in stages- that part makes this stand out from the other AIP cookbooks.

Title: Lello 1375 Ariete Cafe Prestige Coffee Maker; Brand: Lello; Review: I have had this for several years and it's still going strong. I like the coffee that this espresso maker makes, and you do get a reasonably nice crema. However, I have several recurring complaints regarding parts. 1) the basket filters can become clogged over time, particularly if you use a very fine grind. I usually use espresso grind, which is reasonable given this is an espresso maker, you would think. However, if you use espresso grind over time the basket filters will get totally clogged, and irreversibly so. If you use a turkish coffee grind, then it will clog very easily, and it is impossible in my experience to unclog them. You can try to dry out the filter completely and knock it very hard (upside down) on a surface numerous times to dislodge the powder. Doesn't work. Another method, which I have tried also without success, is to try to burn out the crud inside the filter by passing the filter basket over the flames of a gas stove burner. I read about this method elsewhere on the internet. For me, it was an experiment but it didn't work in the end. I'm not recommending you try this, because there is a risk of burning. But, should you choose to do so anyway, take precautions: make sure to hold the filter basket with a pair of pliers to avoid burning yourself, be prepared for some smoke to come out of the filter, and keep a bowl of water nearby so you can douse the filter. In order to avoid getting to the clogged point in the first place, I would recommend using a medium grind as opposed to a super fine grind. The only problem is that the medium grind doesn't gove you as strong a coffee and the crema is not good with medium grind. I have replaced the filter set 3 times, and those stupid little filters are expensve. 2) The filter holder's black handle eventually broke because of all the twisting and untwisting. I tried very unsuccessfully to repair it with different adhesives, bolts, and so on. Eventually I just ordered a replacement from the manufacturer, Lello Corporation, which cost about $40.00. My second one already has a crack in it. 3) Water leaks down into the water tray. More than you would expect. You have to empty out the water tray fairly frequently, and sometimes it gets kind of cruddy and nasty. This is an affordable and attractive espresso and cappuccino maker that has kept me caffeinated for several years. But I'm starting to see it as a bit of a money sink because these necessary parts keep on breaking.; Rating: 3.0/5.0

Title: Hamilton Beach 2-Slice Toaster - Brushed Metal; Brand: Hamilton Beach; Review: Its a decent looking toaster and it makes decent toast. What I don't like about it is that there is no function to lift toast our of the toaster. Although you can lift the handle about 1/2 inch to elevate the bread, it's really not enough to get it to peek out the top. Therefore, if you are toasting something "short" like an English muffin you have to get in there with a fork or some chopsticks to dig it out. I usually don't like to use other implements to dig around inside the toaster, so sometimes I just turn the whole thing over which of course has its own problems (it makes a crumb storm).; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: KitchenAid Flat Grater, Black; Brand: KitchenAid; Review: I like the product visually, and it actually grates really well.

Title: simplehuman 45 litre slim step can - plastic lid - stainless steel; Brand: simplehuman; Review: I was looking for a narrow trash can to fit in an awkward space, and this one fits really nicely. It works well. The step mechanism works fine but since the lid is so long, I often end up lifting the lid manually to toss things inside. People have mentioned that you need to buy the simplehuman trash can liners to fit this. I have not found that to be necessary. I have just used regular old tall 13 gallon trash can liners with a drawstring, and if that is not tight enough you can wedge the drawstring into this little teardrop shaped hole in the back of the trash can (hard to explain, but there is a little hole at the back of the trash can that can be used to tighten the trash can liner. High quality product, worth the price.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Gorilla Grip Original Area Rug Gripper Pad (5x7), Made in USA, for Hard Floors, Pads Available in Many; Brand: Gorilla Grip; Review: Prior to purchasing things, I had tried some different material (rubber drawer liner) to try to keep a rug from slipping around, but it didn't work nearly as well as this gorilla grip rug pad. Once I put it on the hardwood floor and placed the rug on top, that thing was not going anywhere. The rug pad almost has a slightly sticky feel to it, and it grips the floor and the rug equally so nothing is moving. Keep in mind that I have little kiddos running around the carpet all day with their toys, walkers, and tumbling around. The rug stays firmly in place, no slipping. It also adds a tiny little bit of padding to the rug, meaning it feels just a little softer with the rug pad underneath than without it. Great product, happy with my purchase.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Home_and_Kitchen |

Title: Fellini Inn Rome; City: Rome Lazio; Review: We spent three nights at the Fellini Inn during our recent trip to Rome. We arrived at 10 AM on our day of check in after an overnight flight from the US. Our room was not ready, but we were able to leave our luggage with them and went out to explore Rome until our room was ready at noon. The staff was very nice and helpful, and spoke excellent English. Breakfast was more than adequate. No hot food, but they had a selection of pastries, yogurt, juices, cereal, cheese, and salami. They have free wireless internet which was very nice as well. The room was very clean and quiet. The hotel also has a lift, which was very helpful for getting our luggage to our 5th floor room. The location was excellent, very close to the metro, Trevi fountain and within walking distance of many attractions in Rome.

Title: Albergo Marin; City: Venice Veneto; Review: We stayed at the Albergo Marin on our last night in Venice after spending 2 nights at a hotel near San Marco. We wanted to be closer to the bus station so that we could easily catch the bus to the airport the next morning. When we arrived at the hotel we were greeted by a polite young gentlemen who spoke excellent English. Later that night when my husband took a shower, we discovered that the shower leaked profusely and our room was flooded. My husband tried to ask the staff member for more towels and explain the situation, but he did not speak a word of English and so he was unsuccessful and we did not get any more towels. The next morning when we showered the situation was repeated and we spent the morning wading through an inch deep of water in the bathroom and trying to stop it from getting near the rest of the room with our 2 towels. I can't comment on the breakfast because we had to leave early the next morning before it was served. Based on our experience with the room flooding due to a leaky shower I cannot recommend the hotel but if we didn't have this problem it would have been just fine. The hotel is very close and easy to find from both the bus and train stations.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Al Piave; City: Venice Veneto; Review: We stayed at Hotel Al Piave for 2 nights. It is rather difficult to find, so bring an excellent map. Also, Google maps shows the wrong location for this hotel so do not plan on relying on the Google maps location as we did! The location is excellent, as it is close to St. Mark's square but far enough away that it is quiet. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and spoke excellent English. Breakfast was very good. There was a good selection of pastries, yogurt, cheeses and meats. Upon request they would make eggs as well. I don't think there is a lift but the hotel staff carried our bags to our rooms when we checked in. The bed was comfortable. My only complaint about the room is that there was only one electrical outlet in the entire room which made it hard for us to charge our electronics. The room was a bit expensive compared to our other hotels in Italy, but I believe it is a good value for Venice. They have free wireless internet, which was nice. I would recommend taking the vaporetto to San Marco instead of walking from the train station as we did because it is so easy to get lost in Venice! I would definitely stay at Hotel Al Piave again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Universo; City: Florence Tuscany; Review: We stayed at Hotel Universo for one night during our recent trip to Italy. It is just minutes away from the train station, so we did not have to travel far with our luggage which is a plus. The bed was comfortable. Our window did not face the square (this option costs slightly more) and so it was very quiet. (Our window actually faced several other rooms in the hotel so if we had noisy neighbors it might have been loud). Breakfast was more than adequate. There was an ample selection of juices, cereals, pastries and fruits, no hot food. The desk staff spoke excellent English and it was no problem to store our suitcases there after we checked out so that we could explore Florence for a few more hours. There is a lift as well. There is an internet room but it is not free, though I am not sure the exact cost as we didn't use it. The main deficiency in the room was that the shower was extremely small even by European standards, and there was no rack to place soap or shampoo. Overall I felt Hotel Universo was a great value for the price as it was considerably cheaper than all the other hotels we stayed at in Italy but similar in quality.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Holiday Inn Express Hotel Suites San Francisco Fisherman s Wharf; City: San Francisco Californi; Review: This hotel has an excellent location on the Wharf. The room was very comfortable and a decent size. We had a room on the first floor that was probably the closest one to the breakfast area, and even then it was not loud at all. Breakfast was outstanding with a great selection of hot food, pastries, cereals, yogurt, juices. Overall great location and value, especially considering that breakfast is provided.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Best Western Sonoma Valley Inn Krug Event Center; City: Sonoma Sonoma County California; Review: We spent one night at the Best Western Sonoma Valley Inn during a trip to Sonoma last October. The hotel is clean and quiet. We had a room with a fireplace, which we didn't use as it was too warm, but the room was a fairly decent size. The breakfast lacked much hot food, but was otherwise quite adequate. There were several juices, coffee, cereal, yogurt, pastries and fruit. The only hot food was oatmeal that could be made with hot water that was provided. The hotel is well located close to the square in Sonoma with many shops and restaurants within walking distance. The room doors all open directly to the outside. The staff were friendly and helpful. Tip: When checking in, ask if you are getting the best available rate for your room. We heard someone without a reservation in front of us in line being offered a better rate than the one we had booked in advance on the internet. When we asked, we were given the better rate. We would stay there again.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Fellini; City: Rome Lazio; Review: Fellini Bed and Breakfast and Fellini Inn are the same place. We spent three nights at the Fellini Inn during our recent trip to Rome. We arrived at 10 AM on our day of check in after an overnight flight from the US. Our room was not ready, but we were able to leave our luggage with them and went out to explore Rome until our room was ready at noon. The staff was very nice and helpful, and spoke excellent English. Breakfast was more than adequate. No hot food, but they had a selection of pastries, yogurt, juices, cereal, cheese, and salami. They have free wireless internet which was very nice as well. The room was very clean and quiet. The hotel also has a lift, which was very helpful for getting our luggage to our 5th floor room. The location was excellent, very close to the metro, Trevi fountain and within walking distance of many attractions in Rome. If we go back to Rome we will definitely stay at the Fellini Inn (same as Fellini B & B) again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Marco LaGuardia Hotel by Lexington; City: Flushing Queens New York; Review: We stayed at the Marco LaGuardia Hotel for our recent trip to the US Open. It is too far from the tennis center to walk, but they have a free shuttle that goes to the US Open every 1/2 hour, or it is only one stop away on the subway. Manhattan is about a 40 minute subway ride away on the 7 train. The hotel itself was great, with very clean rooms, helpful staff, and free wireless internet access. We also found the hotel to be very quiet. There is a restaurant which has a good breakfast buffet that is not free (although we heard people talking about picking up a coupon for free breakfast from the front desk) but was good. I think if you book directly through their website you can get free breakfast, but when we booked the rates to book from their website were actually more expensive than booking through a third party site. This is definitely one of the best hotels in Flushing. Would definitely stay there again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Melbourne House Hotel; City: London England; Review: I will start off by saying that overall I would recommend this hotel despite the negatives. The location is fantastic, a very close walk to Pimlico Underground station, and very close to central London. Also it is a relatively quiet and safe residential neighborhood. Breakfast is included in the room price and includes coffee, tea, toast, fruit, cereal, yogurt, muffins, and cold cuts. It is only served from 7:30-8:45 AM, so you do need to always get up fairly early to get it. The front desk is only staffed from 6:30 am-midnight, but your room key also opens the front door so you can get back late and still get in. They don't have do not disturb signs for the rooms, so every morning around 9:30-9:40 am even when we were clearly still in the room, housekeeping would knock on our door and want to clean the room. They were willing to come back later when we asked, but it still seemed a bit weird. During our stay they were having a problem with their phones such that you couldn't get an outside line without having to ask the front desk to open it up for you and then could only use it for a short time and that was a big inconvenience during our trip. Supposedly this is a temporary problem but it doesn't sound like they have any idea of when it will be fixed. There is no lift so I wouldn't stay there if you don't feel you could carry your suitcase up as many as 8 flights of stairs. There is wireless internet which worked very well on the 2nd floor but may not work very well on the upper floors as I saw some people from the upper floors down on the lower floors to use the internet. The room was small but normal by European standards and was clean and comfortable. The bathroom appeared to have been recently updated and was very nice. The bed was moderately comfortable and only 2 pillows were provided but we got more after asking. There is no air conditioning but we didn't need it in September. The room did have a fan. I would stay here again if I knew their phones were fixed.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Brussels Welcome Hotel; City: Brussels; Review: We enjoyed our stay at the Welcome Hotel. We stayed in Kenya, and though the room was small by American standards, as most rooms in Europe are, it was very nice. The breakfast was very adequate as well, with toast, pastries, yogurt, cereal as well as hot foods such as eggs and sausage. It did not appear that the food was replenished throughout the morning though, so if you were earlier there were more options. The wifi is free and the staff are very friendly and all speak excellent English. Located literally steps from the St. Katherine metro station and a short walk to all the main sights in Brussels. We would definitely stay here again.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Nadia; City: Amsterdam North Holland Province; Review: We recently stayed at Hotel Nadia for 3 nights. Upon arrival we were quite surprised when we saw the huge narrow staircase up to the reception at the entrance. Thankfully the staff immediately told us to leave our bags at the bottom and they brought them up for us. They aren't kidding when they say that there is no lift and that this hotel is not for anyone not in good shape, as you will have to climb a lot of stairs every time you enter the building. The rooms are very small, but have some nice features given the price range including a refrigerator, safe, and free wi-fi. The rooms do not have hair dryers, but they can be checked out from the front desk. They also don't have bars of soap or shampoo, but instead have a dispenser of hair/body wash near the bathroom sink and in the shower. We did frequently have the smell of cigarette smoke under our door at night which we did not like. Breakfast was good with toast, cheese, very small yogurt, marble bread, and pastries. The items were replenished regularly. The room did sometimes get crowded, but there was always room for everyone when we were there. The location is excellent and it is right near a tram stop (which means it can be noisy at night) and is within walking distance of many of the attractions in Amsterdam. Overall I feel it was a good value for 100 euros a night, though the room was very small. It is a reasonable place to stay if you don't expect to spend a lot of time in your room and are able to climb stairs.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hampton Inn Manhattan Times Square North; City: New York City New York; Review: We spent 3 nights at this hotel over Labor Day weekend. The location was fantastic, very close to Times Square and all the main sights in NYC. Also, many excellent restaurants within walking distance. Breakfast is included and had an excellent mix of hot and cold food every day. The breakfast area does get very busy after 9 AM, but we were always able to find a seat and they are great at refilling the food frequently. Also, there are only 2 elevators and in the morning they get very crowded with everyone trying to go down for breakfast and back up after breakfast. Something to watch out for is that they put a $1 per day "optional" charity donation charge on your bill. We had them remove it which because the whole thing was rather sneaky. Overall though it was a great place to stay. Would definitely stay there again!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Alexander s Boutique Hotel of Oia; City: Oia Santorini Cyclades South Aegean; Review: We stayed at Alexander's Hotel for 3 nights last week. We ended up getting a better room than the one we booked due to a booking mix up. When we arrived at the hotel, we got a wonderful introduction to the island of Santorini by one of the staff. The location of the hotel is not too far from all the shopping and restaurants in Oia (about a 5-10 minute walk), but is secluded enough that it is quiet. Breakfast has very generous hours (8:30-11:30 am every morning), and is served right outside your room whenever you are ready. The breakfast consisted of toast, a hard boiled egg, cheese and cold cuts, watermelon, orange juice, and your choice of coffee or tea. The wifi only worked intermittently if I stood right next to the door, otherwise did not work in the room at all. If I went outside our room, it worked very well. The views from the hotel are gorgeous. The hotel staff are extremely friendly and helpful. When I realized that I had misread the bus schedule and we would need a ride to the airport, Ivetta was able to call a driver who arrived within 5 minutes to take us to the airport. The mattress was a bit uncomfortable and both my husband and I had stiff backs the first night, but after that we placed an additional pillow behind our backs and it was better. The hotel doesn't have its own pool but you can use one across the street (we did not do this). It does have it's own hot tub. We would not hesitate to stay at Alexander's again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Biz Cevahir Hotel; City: Istanbul; Review: We recently stayed at the Biz Cevahir for 4 nights. Our room was very large for a room in Europe (though based on the floor plan it was the largest on the floor). The location is fantastic and is very close to Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. Breakfast is excellent, with a great selection of meats, cheeses, fruit, hot foods, cereal, and also toast and pastries. The hours of breakfast are generous with it lasting 7:30-10:30. Wifi in the room worked decently if I sat near the door. The hotel was quiet and the front desk staff all spoke good English. We would not hesitate to stay there again if we returned to Istanbul.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Lotus Garden Cottages; City: Volcano Island of Hawaii Hawaii; Review: We spent one night in the Lotus room. The room was very well equipped with a lot of details, like wine glasses, a wine bottle opener, cable tv, dvd player, a fireplace (which we actually used in September because Volcano gets cold at night!) and a keurig programmed to warm up at 7:15 in the morning. The owner was very friendly. He brings breakfast to your room between 7:30-8:00 am, and the breakfast had orange juice, fresh fruit, a sausage/egg biscuit, and corn bread. The one weird thing about the room was that there are a lot of windows with blinds that don't go all the way to the floor and there was an uncovered completely transparent window right in front of the shower. Although it is unlikely someone would be walking by the window, the possibility is a bit unnerving. We asked the owner for a fix and he gave us an extra towel to place over the window. This fixed the problem but it seems like there needs to be a shade over the window. Would definitely stay here again!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel; City: Hilo Island of Hawaii Hawaii; Review: We recently spent one night at the Hilo Hawaiian Hotel. I have to say that I honestly have no idea what the negative reviews are talking about! We got a newly renovated room on the 8th floor, non-ocean side. It was very spacious and the bed was comfortable. No free wifi in the room ($10 per day to get) but not a problem for one night and we could use our phones. There is free wifi in the lobby, though. The breakfast buffet at the restaurant ($11 for continental breakfast and $18 per person for full breakfast but they give you one $5 off coupon) was fantastic! They had soups, fruits, cereal, juices, sausage, eggs, bacon, toast, basically every breakfast food you can think of. Would be kind of expensive to do daily, but totally worth it for one day. There was no hair dryer in the room which I thought was odd, but probably could have gotten one at the front desk if I had asked. The area is great, and is a very short walk to Coconut Island and some of the scenic areas of Hilo. I would certainly not hesitate to stay at the Hilo Hawaiian Hotel again! Highly recommended!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Embassy Suites by Hilton Montreal; City: Montreal Quebec; Review: We stayed at the Embassy Suites for 4 nights over Labor Day Weekend. We loved this hotel! The room was large and very comfortable, with a jacuzzi tub, full kitchen (except for oven and any plates/silverware), 2 tvs, and a very comfortable king sized bed. Wi-fi worked very well in the room, but I think it is only free if you are a Hilton Honors member. The breakfast is excellent with made to order omelettes, toast, pastries, eggs, sausage, bacon, fruit, coffee, and cereal. The only downside is that it can get crowded, but we are always able to find a table. They give everyone free drink cards to get 2 free drinks/person each night of your stay from 5:30-7:30 pm, also they have some snacks at this time as well. The restaurant can get very crowded during this time and it sometimes took a long time for the waitress to take our order, but it was free, so we can't be too upset! The hotel is a 2-3 minute walk from the metro and Notre Dame Cathedral, also there are many great restaurants nearby. If we return to Montreal we will definitely stay here again!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Sheraton Kona Resort Spa at Keauhou Bay; City: Kailua Kona Island of Hawaii Hawaii; Review: We loved our 2 nights spent at the Sheraton Kona. The room was very clean, comfortable, and spacious, and wifi was included in the room rate, though there is a $30 per day resort charge. The breakfast was included in our room rate (though not sure if this is always the case) and was a great buffet with an excellent variety of cold foods, hot foods, fruits, soups etc. The hours were also very generous with breakfast ranging from 6-10 am. The pool has a large waterslide which we did not use, and is actually quite large. There is no beach at the hotel. The ocean view was a bit disappointing. There was an ocean view, but it basically required binoculars to enjoy. Overall we were happy with the stay and if we return to Kona we will definitely stay at the Sheraton again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Aston at The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach; City: Lahaina Maui Hawaii; Review: We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay at the Whaler! It is at a fantastic location on Kaanapali beach, and is right next to the Whalers village. Our room had a great view of the ocean, and we loved having our breakfast out on the balcony. Our studio condo had a full kitchen, dishwasher, plates, silverware etc and a full size fridge. Wi-fi was free. There is a $12 per day parking charge. The Kaanapali beach walk is fantastic! Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Doubletree by Hilton San Juan; City: San Juan Puerto Rico; Review: We recently spent four nights at the Doubletree in San Juan. Overall we were very happy with our stay. The breakfast buffet was very good and had very generous hours from 6 am-11am. The eating area was never crowded. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The wifi worked very well in the room. The location was a 10 minute walk to the Condado beach area. The bed was very comfortable. The pool and spa area looked nice though we did not use them. There were a few things that could have been better. The curtains in our room did not block out light sufficiently and every morning at 6:30 AM our room was completely lit up, which made it hard to sleep. We found the hotel kind of hard to find and kept taking the wrong exits off the highway to get to it (our fault but the location is not the easiest to find). The ice machine on our floor did not work, but we reported it to them upon checkout and they said they would fix it. We would not hesitate to stay here again, but if we go back to Puerto Rico we would probably prefer to stay on the beach next time.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hilton Prague Old Town; City: Prague Bohemia; Review: We recently spent 3 nights at the Hilton Prague Old Town. We would definitely stay there again. The location was great. It is right near the metro and Republic Square and an easy walk to all the sights in Prague. The bed was very comfortable and the executive lounge breakfast was good. Wifi is free in the lobby for everyone and included in the room rate for Hilton Honors members to get wifi in the room. Wifi in the room worked well. One thing that we did not like was the shower. There is no curtain and the door only extends about half way, so it was very cold to use the shower! The room was not spacious, but was normal for hotel rooms in Europe. Overall it was a great stay and we would definitely stay there again if we ever return to Prague.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Radisson Hotel and Conference Center Fond du Lac; City: Fond du Lac Wisconsin; Review: We recently stayed at the Holiday Inn for a wedding and were very pleasantly surprised with how nice it was! The beds are very comfortable, wi-fi is free, and the restaurant breakfast buffet (which was included in our room rate) is excellent as well. They have an entertainment area where games such as ping pong or shuffleboard can be checked out from the front desk. Would definitely stay here again!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Homewood Suites Madison West; City: Madison Wisconsin; Review: We had an excellent one night stay at this hotel. The room was large and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was great. Wi-fi worked well. The only downside was the our room wasn't ready until about 4 pm. Overall we would definitely stay here again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hampton Inn Suites New Orleans Downtown French Quarter Area; City: New Orleans Louisiana; Review: We stayed at the Hampton Inn near the French Quarter for Labor Day Weekend. Everything about the hotel was great. The room was very comfortable, free wi-fi worked well, and the location was very close walking distance to the French Quarter and street car lines. The free breakfast was excellent and included juices, Belgian waffles, eggs, cereal, fruit, toast, pastries, muffins etc. The breakfast area was large and never got too crowded. The breakfast hours are also rather generous (6 am-10 am daily). This hotel was very reasonably priced for the quality and I imagine it is as good or better than many other much more expensive hotels in the area. We will definitely stay here again if we return to New Orleans.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Best Western Plus Hotel Stellar; City: Sydney New South Wales; Review: We recently stayed at this hotel for 4 nights. We found this hotel to be an outstanding value. It is a very short walk from the Museum metro station, and only 2 stops to Circular Quay and a lot of the tourist sights in Sydney. The room was very reasonably sized, and had a nice bathroom and kitchenette. Wifi is free and worked very well. The beds were very comfortable, and the hotel was very quiet (except for one night where someone on our floor had a loud party from 2-4 am, but I think this is unusual and didn't actually bother us that much). There is a computer in the lobby that you can use for free (it says you have to purchase time but if you ask they will give you a code to use for free). The only thing about the hotel that I didn't like was that they charged us 50 cents per page to print our airline boarding passes, which seemed rather petty. There is breakfast buffet downstairs in the hotel which is a great value at $14.95/person. If you can get it cheaper than this when booking the room I would definitely recommend doing that, but either way it is still a good value if you are only there for a few days (based on the price of food at the nearby grocery store). If we return to Sydney we would definitely stay here again. It is a fantastic value for the location!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Reef Palms; City: Cairns Cairns Region Queensland; Review: We recently spent 2 nights at the Reef Palms and were very happy with our room. The location is good. It is about a 30 minute walk to the city center, but they have regular shuttles if you don't want to walk. They will give rides to the reef terminal if you book a tour through them, but if you don't they will still let you tag along if they are already taking someone else who booked through them (which we did). It is only about 2 blocks from the boardwalk. The room was large and the bed was comfortable. No bar soap in the shower but they did have a shower gel dispenser. The wifi was free but not the best. It would cut in and out but overall got the job done. I couldn't use it to make a Rebtel phone call though, as it kept cutting in and out. The computer in the lobby was so slow that we quickly decided that it wasn't worth trying to print our boarding passes. There is a parking lot with adequate spaces if you rent a car and they give free rides to the airport for departing guests. The free breakfast was basic but adequate. It included cold items only with toast, cereal, yogurt, and juice. Eggs and bacon are available for an additional charge. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There is a washer and dryer for guests that costs $3 to wash and $3 to dry which was very nice to be able to use in the middle of our trip. Overall it was a great value considering what we paid for the room and we would certainly stay there again.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Pan Pacific Melbourne; City: Melbourne Victoria; Review: We had a fantastic stay at this hotel, but this is completely due to my husband having Hilton Honors Diamond status. We easily walked to the hotel from Southern Cross station. At check-in we were upgraded to a fantastic 19th floor 2 bedroom apartment with a great view overlooking the city. The breakfast buffet in the restaurant is amazing (hot foods, cereal, fresh fruit, make your own fruit juice etc). The breakfast is free for Hilton Honors Gold and Diamond members but otherwise is expensive. The wifi also worked well but if you are not a Hilton Honors member is is $27 per day! (Which is ridiculous). Basically if you are a Hilton Honors member I would highly recommend this hotel, otherwise the breakfast and wifi are not free, and are instead quite expensive.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: DoubleTree by Hilton Orlando Airport Hotel; City: Orlando Florida; Review: We spent one night at this hotel after arriving on an evening flight. The hotel was quiet, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was very good, with a nice selection of hot and cold items. Wifi in the room worked well. We would definitely stay here again if we wanted to be close to the airport.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hilton Garden Inn Orlando International Drive North; City: Orlando Florida; Review: We recently spent 2 nights at this hotel during a visit to Universal Studios. We were very happy with our stay. The hotel is located very close to Universal Studios. It is possible to walk there from the hotel, but we opted to drive instead to save time and energy. Wifi in the room worked well. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast buffet had a great selection of toast, pastries, cereal, fruit, and hot items including made to order omelettes. We found the hotel to be a great overall value, and would definitely stay here again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Marriott Cancun Resort; City: Cancun Yucatan Peninsula; Review: We recently spent 4 nights at the CasaMagna Mariott and were very happy with our stay. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, the beach is beautiful, and the room and bed was very comfortable. Wifi worked very well in the room and on the beach. The breakfast buffet had an excellent selection of many hot and cold foods, and for the days when we had to eat very quickly due to tours the on site convenience store opens at 6 am and had a good breakfast food selection as well. We tried all 3 onsite restaturants and thought that the food was excellent at all of them. The only thing that was a bit odd was we reviewed our charges before checking out and found that there was a charge for tv pay per view which we did not make, but they quickly removed it from our bill when we stated that we did not make the charge. I would recommend reviewing your charges carefully before checking out to make sure there aren't any unexplained charges like we found. We liked that this hotel was not all inclusive, as we spent a lot of time during the day away on tours. We loved our stay and will definitely stay at this hotel again when we return to Cancun.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: El MaPi by Inkaterra; City: Aguas Calientes Machu Picchu Sacred Valley Cusco Region; Review: We recently spent 1 night at the El Mapi Hotel while visiting Machu Picchu. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was large and the bed was comfortable. The wifi was not the best, but better than nothing (could post a couple pictures and send text messages, but could not make a call or load other people's pictures on facebook). The included dinner was okay (there was a large tour group dining at the same time and the staff seemed to pay much better attention to them than us, so we ended up waiting to be served a lot). The free pisco sour welcome drinks in the bar were very good. The included breakfast was excellent. It was a very short walk from the train station and bus stop to Machu PIcchu. Overall I was happy with our stay for one night, but if I were staying longer would look around for a place with better wifi and dinner (though maybe should not expect much better in this area so overall would consider returning).; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Wyndham Costa Del Sol Lima Airport; City: Lima Lima Region; Review: This hotel is all about convenience (not spending the night sleeping on an airport bench while awaiting a flight the next day). We arrived in Lima around 11 pm and spent a night at the Costa del Sol before our 9 am flight the next day. It was very convenient to walk across the street from the airport terminal to the hotel and the check-in process was quick. The free wifi worked okay (slow to load but better than nothing). The included breakfast was excellent with a wide selection. It was very nice to just walk back across the street to our AM flight after a good night's sleep. I would highly recommend staying at this hotel if you find yourself arriving late with a flight the next morning. They offer a free pisco sour welcome drink at the bar but we did not get it as we wanted to get some sleep.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hilton Lima Miraflores; City: Lima Lima Region; Review: We recently spent one night at the Hilton Lima Miraflores and were very happy with our stay. Our room was a good size and the bathroom was large as well. The staff were super helpful and always ready to call taxis and make sure the driver was clear on where we wanted to go before leaving. The breakfast in the restaurant had a huge selection of hot and cold foods and was really tasty. Since my husband is a Hilton Diamond member, we also had access to the executive lounge. The staff in the executive lounge were really nice and helpful as well. Our flight was late at night on the day after we checked out and we were allowed to use the executive lounge on the 2nd night of our stay which was an extra bonus. The rooftop pool is beautiful as well. Wifi worked very well in the rooms and executive lounge. If we return to Lima, we will definitely stay at the Hilton Miraflores again.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel and Suites Charleston Historic District; City: Charleston South Caro; Review: We recently stayed at the DoubleTree during a trip to Charleston. The location is fantastic. It is within walking distance of so many attractions and restaurants. The breakfast buffet that was included in our room rate was excellent with a great selection of hot and cold foods. We have a six month old and she needed a place to sleep so we requested a crib and they got a pack and play to our room within 30 minutes of us checking in. I thought I had seen on the website that all the rooms had mini fridges, but that turned out not to be the case for our room. We had really wanted/needed a fridge for baby food and milk so we asked the front desk if it would be possible to get one. On the first day we asked we did not get one (possibly due to lack of availability on the weekend), but we asked again the second day and within 15 minutes of our request a staff member was outside our room with a mini fridge! We were very happy to have it for the rest of our stay. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was very large. The only negative I can think of other than not having a refrigerator initially is that there was an ice machine on our wing that couldn't keep up with the demand for ice (probably because none of the rooms had fridges) so most of the time when we tried to get ice none came out. We would definitely stay here again on a return trip to Charleston.; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Hacienda de la Tortuga; City: Akumal Yucatan Peninsula; Review: My friend and I bought a Groupon for a five night stay at the Hacienda. It was awesome. The people were super friendly, the location is great! Right on the beach and pretty private. We had our brunches included with our stay which was a huge bonus as the food was excellent! It's great if you want to escape, chill, snorkel, drink and eat! Try the hotel's Tamarind Margarita! :O Everything is walkable/bikeable! The manager at the condo, Roberto, was also very helpful and gave us advice about places to go/eat etc. We had a one bedroom condo with a beach front view. Just awesome. :); Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Dee Andaman Hotel; City: Pak Nam Krabi Town Krabi Province; Review: I loved this place! My Mom and I spent three nights there from 31st Oct to 3rd Nov 2012. The room was a superior with a King bed. Our room was on the 5th floor with an amazing view of the mountains! The staff was very helpful and helped us navigate around Krabi. We had breakfast included which was a great plus. The restaurant was good but a tad expensive in comparison to the other bars and restaurants nearby. (Almost double!) It's still affordable if you think $$ but we were on a budget. One complaint we had was it was really understaffed one rainy night with staff barely understanding our English. This resulted in a slight miscommunication and over ordering. The food was great but we ended up paying more than we expected. I lodged a complaint at the reception and the staff apologized with a bar of scented soap and oranges . It was a little funny but eh the oranges were good. The pool is really nice as well. As for the location, if you want to be near the beach, this might not be that convenient. Aonang beach is 20 min away by shuttle bus. The shuttle buses come every 20-30 mins at the corner street down from the hotel and is cheap at 50 THB/person (don't get scammed! we did the first day), but its not a walk if you want to be near the beach. We had to take shuttles the days we wanted to go to Aonang Beach (which also connects to Railay Beach by ferry). Although I was told by hotel staff that Railay beach can also be reached from Krabi town instead of travelling to Aonang. (We didn't get to do this) Apart from that, there are some great restaurants and bars nearby and its not as touristy as Aonang (which can get a bit crazy). We did day long tours for two of the days which included pick up and drop off so we didn't feel the distance as much. I might choose Aonang if I go with my buddies but I really loved the quiet of Krabi town. Another plus is its nearer to Krabi Airport and a shuttle takes you for 90 THB/person from Airport to town and back. Aonang is 150 THB. As for tours, we didn't book through the hotel as it was cheaper around Krabi town. Just ask around town before booking at the hotel. All in all, the hotel and Krabi were the highlights of my Thailand experience! Would recommend it if you want a quieter alternative to Aonang.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Encounter Nepal; City: Kathmandu Kathmandu Valley Bagmati Zone Central Region; Review: I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights in the standard budget room. Everything was clean and comfortable. The food at the restaurant was the best I ate in Nepal! :D It is very conveniently located in Thamel (they will arrange a free airport shuttle if you call in) which was a great help. The staff were warm and extremely helpful and made our trip memorable. Will definitely come back! :); Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hotel Lakefront P Ltd; City: Pokhara Gandaki Zone Western Region; Review: We stayed at the hotel for three nights. It was a double bed room, with very comfortable and modern furnishings (the bathroom was HUGE). For what I paid, I got an excellent return! The hotel is on the stretch right next to Phewa lake, so lovely views from the room and right outside. There is a hammock and a swing if you want to laze around at the hotel and read a book or two. The staff were also very helpful and helped us figure out logistics. Definitely will go back!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Arya International Elgin Road; City: Kolkata Calcutta Kolkata District West Bengal; Review: Loved this hotel! Would give it 4.5 actually if I could! It's clean, on a budget and for 3 , we had a big airy room. An extra mattress was provided for a room with a king bed. The hot water was sublime! We stayed first a night, left a few bags behind, and stayed two more days after a stint in delhi. The staff were very friendly and accommodating . The best part about thus hotel is its location. It's nestled in a semi residential area , so it's quiet and birds come to your window in the morning! Also a five minute walk to the metro and steps away from Forum mall. Highly recommended!!; Rating: 4.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Hunter 54098 Bayview 54-inch ETL Damp; Brand: Hunter Fan Company; Review: I have a bedroom that is 11' x 19' and needed a 52" ceiling fan to supplement the A/C. I didn't want to settle for the common 52" designs, so I stumbled across this fan which has a nice tropical look to it. Although rated for outdoor use, these fans can be installed indoors, and I believe they are better sealed against moisture than other indoor fans. Installation was straightforward, but I noticed that the canopy on mine does not sit flush against the ceiling, even though the mounting bracket is screwed tight. Also, once you pop the canopy trim ring over the canopy, it is very hard if not impossible to squeeze off (if you ever need to remove the fan). Fan wobbles on the highest setting, so I might have to use the included blade balancing kit. Otherwise, this fan looks great, and moves A LOT of air. Since the fan is near my bed, even on the lowest setting, I found myself waking up under two layers of blanket the first night. I would definitely recommend this to anyone, price on Amazon is unbeatable.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Xtreme Bright X-3500 LED Light & Power Bank Flashlight; Rechargeable Power Supply - Charges Any USB Connect Device: Cell; Brand: Xtreme Bright; Review: Great flashlight! This is THE perfect flashlight. It isn't heavy & it has a great balance to it when holding in your hand. My son & grandson came over to work on a truck & needed a flashlight. All I had to offer was my Hello Kitty flashlight. How embarrassing! This time when they came over, I gave them this LED light & they were amazed! I let them take it home because I am a sucker! I am so impressed with phone charging part & recharging the light thru the computer. When on, the beam is a strong, steady light. I did receive this at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. I now need to get one for me. When the power goes off, you need a trustworthy piece of equipment like this. Thank You!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Galaxy S8 Screen Protector, Live2Pedal [9H Hardness][Anti-Scratch][Anti-Bubble][3D Curved] [High Definition] [Ultra; Brand: Live2Pedal; Review: Love my new Knee Pillow! I have been looking for a pillow like this but never made the splurge to get one. I used a regular bed pillow to keep my knees apart & spent literally hours adjusting it over the years! Toss & turn & then finally get up because I was so uncomfortable. Now I have my Memory Foam pillow from MedX! This pillow stays in place & is just the right height & width for a good night's sleep. It sure is better than taking pain medication as a way to get to sleep. My hips have arthritis & getting up in the morning used to be a challenge-I seem to be able to get out of bed without that horrible pain that makes me want to cry. What a relief! I like the removable cover that is washable. I did receive this at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. I just wish I knew how great the pillow was years earlier. I would have gladly paid anything for it! Thank You!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Motorola Droid Turbo 2 Screen; Brand: Skinomi; Review: My Skinomi TechSkin looks great on my phone. Now, I know my Motorola Droid screen is protected. I have tried the flimsy plastic protectors & they don't seem to fit nor do they last very long. I was going to buy some from my provider & boy, were they ever expensive! This Techskin just makes sense. I usually don't do well with directions but these instructions were easy to follow. No Problem! It has a Lifetime Replacement Warranty also. As one reviewer suggested, just apply the skin at night, before you go to bed. It works! I did receive this at reduced cost for an honest opinion. It's working great for me. Thank You!!!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

My neighbor came over & out of everything setting on my table-her eyes went to this phone case! It is almost a turquoise blue & is so beautiful. My phone fits securely into the case & I have my license, debit card & a few bills(cash) & I'm ready for anything! The case has a kickstand to stand my phone up to use. The case has a strap & I don't have to set my phone down at the store & risk leaving it behind. Now my phone is safe & secure & the color makes my phone very easy to find.

Title: Magnetic Car Mount, iVoler Air Vent Magnetic Universal Cell Phone Car Holder for iPhone 6/6S; Brand: ivoler; Review: Car Mount Air Vent by iVoler Such a clever, useful device! Why didn't I think of this! Very easy to use. I just stuck one of the metal stickers inside my phone case & stuck the mount (holder) on your air vent. You can turn your phone to the side if you want a wide view for maps. Now I can adjust my phone for easiest viewing or to get the glare away. This really keeps your phone in place. No more digging around between the seats or taking your eyes off the road to lean down & get your phone off of the floor. It really ends up being a safety device! This phone holder would make a great gift for anyone who drives! I did receive this at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. Thank You!!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Stalion iPhone 5C Holster Secure Shell Case & Belt Clip Combo with Kickstand (Jet; Brand: Stalion; Review: Stalion iPhone 5S Case with Belt Clip Fuchsia Pink I got this Stalion Phone Case for my friend who loves to change cases-to go with clothes, her mood. etc. This phone case is sturdy & attractive. Plus it has a 24 month warranty! The fuchsia color will make it easy to find your phone since it's not your usual black. Also you can clip it to different things around the house so you can keep it close as you wander around the house. Of course, it's made to clip on a belt-so there you go-that's handy & close! This Stalion phone case also has a kickstand to stand your phone up to watch videos or talk. The stand is sturdy also, as is the case. The case has a texture to it, so your phone won't be as likely to slip out of your hand. The case lines up, with access to your buttons, etc. With the 24 month warranty, this company sure stands by their product!! I did receive this at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. It's great!

Title: Stalion Slider Case for iPhone 5/5S; Brand: Stalion; Review: Stalion iPhone 5S Black Slider Case Thin but sturdy 2 piece phone case. I ordered this case for my friend who likes to change out covers on her phone-seems like every day. It's really a nice case & she doesn't have any problem putting it on her phone or removing it. She's always , I mean like every 5 minutes, on her phone & this case is still functioning. The ports line up & so do the buttons. I like plain black covers like this one. That's what I keep on my phone. I guess I'm boring but I don't think of my phone as a fashion accessory. So this case is one of my favorites. I have purchased other cases from Stalion & they seem to be sturdy so far! I did receive this case at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. Thank You!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: For iPhone 5 5s Case, Roybens Luxury Metal Air Aluminum Bumper Detachable; Brand: ROYBENS; Review: Roybens Phone Case Luxury Metal Air Aluminum iPhone 5S Ultra Thin Frame This Roybens iPhone 5S case is really thin & looks great to me. It is really light weight & a little hard to put on & take off. I had somebody else do it! I tend to break nails & things. I like the mirror too. I have to check my eyes all of the time for smeared eyeliner! I haven't tested out how this cover protects my phone - if I were to drop it. I don't drop my phone that often-I don't use my phone all day long. On an iPhone 5S, the cut-outs for the ports & buttons line up once the cover is on & I can charge my phone without removing the cover. The buttons also work. I have Verizon & haven't noticed any change in service. I don't use WiFi, however. I like the look & feel of this cover. I just wish I didn't have such a time removing it! I did receive my new cover at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. Once I learn how to remove the case-it should be 5 stars! Thank You!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: iPhone SE Screen Protector, Maxboost iPhone SE 5S 5 5C Glass Screen Protector [Tempered; Brand: Maxboost; Review: iPhone 5S Screen Protector from Maxboost This Screen Protector does protect your expensive phone from drops & scrapes & scratches. It's nice to protect your screen from your make-up & oils from your face. I know I can't believe the "stuff" on my screen. And I barely use my phone. Of course, I ordered the wrong size protector, so I gave this to my friend. She said she didn't need one! Never had used one. I guess I thought everybody used these protectors! Guess not. When I explained the benefits, she agreed to use it. It went on easy-a shock for me. Now, she can wipe off her phone & all of the gunk that comes off never reaches her actual phone. I have only used the plastic protectors. These glass protectors look & feel so much better. It's best to clean with a dry micro-fiber cloth. Sweet! I did receive this protector at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. Now, I need to go & see if they have one for my phone. Thank You!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

A more sophisticated screen protector! I got this for my grandson's phone. He has never used a scree protector on his expensive phone. Kids! I have always used protectors on my phone--but nothing like this quality one. I'm glad he & his dad applied this! I am clutz when it comes to anything to do with my phone. Maybe because I didn't grow up with cell phones-I'm 65. I did pay careful attention though. You DO have to read the instructions. Most things you can figure out on your own. But you REALLY do need to read the instructions & it then makes sense. This protector does protect from dust, fingerprints & the oil that comes off your face & hands. Gross. You don't need to be embarrassed when you show your pictures to people. You still have to wipe the face off but the appearance of your phone is much better. The protector is thin & sturdy & should protect the face of your phone. I did receive this at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. Thank You! Now I need to check on one for my phone!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

I just got my new phone & you would think since you pay a small fortune for this phone - you would think "they" could throw in a screen protector. But NO!. I just have to have a screen protector on my phone! I am paranoid. With this Halo kit, you get 3 screen protectors, an alcohol wipe, a cleaning cloth & dust removal stickers. Just a few little extras but it really helps! I am thrilled with this kit. All of this is in a small envelope that you can seal up. Another small thing but I need things like this. I can keep everything in one place & know where it is. (I hope) I should be an expert by now - I'm not - since I have applied so many other brands of protectors! I usually get stinking air bubbles. I can't stand that ! I was lucky (or maybe it's the quality of these) & got mine on the first try. I didn't rush through it like I usually do. I think I've learned my lesson on that. The cut-outs matched my phone perfectly. No problems. I do recommend these protectors! I did receive these at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. Thank You!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

It makes me think of Barbie & all of her cool accessories. I thought it might be too childish for a 66 year old. But I love it!! I'm getting one for my phone. I'll use it this winter. For some reason, the rabbit fur makes me think of "winter". The case fit the phone & was easy to put on. The camera works & the little design around the camera adds some bling. I think this case will help with knowing where your phone is. It's easy to spot. Almost everyone who sees it - has to comment on it. It's so unusual!

I got this for a friend's daughter, who just got a new iPhone 6S. I got the pink & was so pleased with the quality, color & the wrist strap. I need to see if they also have 6S Plus cases for me! This case looks so handy with it's slots for a drivers license & debit card. You can pit some & in & your phone & you have all of yours necessities for a trip to the store, school, a night out, shopping, etc. No need to drag a clumsy purse around. I would definitely need the wrist strap! The PU leather (I had to Google that) is nice & sturdy. Not cheap looking AT All! The stitching is tight & uniform. The strap attaches securely. My friend's daughter was delighted with her new Nuo Peng case! I think she needs a few other colors & the price is not over the top like other cases. This way you can afford to have several! I read a review where one of these (not pink) was purchased for their boyfriend. That is perfect! I never thought of guys using these. But how practical!

You can keep your phone & debit card safely on your wrist. You don't have to set it in the cart. You can wander away from your cart & not worry about your valuables disappearing. I got the Rose-gold version with the wavy lines. It is so beautiful in person - even better than the picture. It has sturdy uniform stitching & seems to be put together well. This phone case will probably outlast my phone while protecting it. I did receive this case at a reduced cost for an honest opinion. Thank You!; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Cell_Phones_and_Accessories |

Title: D-Link DNS-323-1TB, 1TB ShareCenter 2-Bay Network Storage; Brand: D-Link; Review: this is an excellent piece of hardware, agree with all the 5 start reviews and recommend it to Linux users/admins make sure you google fun_plug, out of the box is just a Samba server for windows machines with fun_plug (I'm using version 3 inreto.de) you can make it a nfs server, web server, rsync server, etc, you can telnet to it and customize it as you want. 100% recommend it. it is 1GB eth but I only was able to make it go at ~12MB/s max, so I'm doubding it... anyway is not slow and I'm still testing. added later: when opening big pictures is slow, the ethernet port is 1G but I think the CPU is too slow so you only get up to ~12MB/s, I'm not using it now, I'm using an old P4 pc with fedora for the same purpose.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Given the interaction history of a user with hotels as follows:
Title: Comfort Suites; City: Monroeville Pennsylvania; Review: This past week end, I returned to the area to attend a masquerade/ball birthday celebration. My husband, sister and I stayed at the Monroeville, PA location. I had made my reservations directly with Comfort Inn and Dara took the reservation. She was pleasant and professional on the telephone. I called the morning before we were scheduled to arrive and spoke to the manager, La Peta who confirmed our reservation. She, too, was very pleasant. We arrived without incident. Both Dara and Mariah were at the front desk and were very nice. However,I made the mistake, though, in thinking that the bedroom was in a completely separate area from the sleeper couch. That was strictly my mistake. A suite causes me to think something totally different! And the hotel did not have separate suites or rooms. The room was able to accomodate the three of us relatively comfortably. It was clean and served the purpose. We obtained the linen for the sleeper bed after check in. The following morning, my husband and I had the complimentary breakfast which had a good selection. Ms. Frankie was pleasant and very helpful. The only complaint would be that there was no turkey or beef breakfast meat, only pork. Maybe that can be a future consideration. We enjoyed the breakfast for three mornings anyway! The housekeeping staff, while not requested for room service while we were there, did swap out our towels at our request, after two days. When we checked out, that process was without incident. Denisha met me with a smile and a thank you. I would definitely consider staying here again. It's located close to the "Miracle Mile" and everything that you might need in within close proximity. Thanks you.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Comfort Inn Conference Center; City: Pittsburgh Pennsylvania; Review: I was in the Pittsburgh area for a family member's funeral this past week. The location of this Comfort Inn was great for my purposes. My husband and I had stayed at this same Comfort Inn five years ago and weren't impressed. When I saw that the hotel's website indicated the facility had been updated, I thought okay, maybe. I called and was advised that updates to the facility had occurred last winter. Additionally, when I mentioned the funeral, they gave me a bereavement rate. Thank you. The hotel had been updated to a degree but the hallway leading to our room looked as I remembered... the wallpaper was peeling and the carpet needed a good cleaning/ replacement. Our room had a kingsized bed which was great, the carpet had been replaced, and the bathroom had been updated with the granite sinktop. However, it was difficult to turn on the water for the shower based on the positioning of the sink. The restaurant was generally okay and our dinner server, Henry was great and engaging Breakfast was the usual fare, instant oatmeal, scrambled eggs, pork sausage, etc. How about a turkey meat product? I guess it depends on the locale and the hotel brand. The attendant on duty for breakfast both days was friendly, thankfully. The parking was quite a distance from the room and the layout of the hotel required us to go down the steps to get to our room. There's no elevator. On Thursday morning, I called the front desk about the inability to get the CBS network_ I believe 44 was ABC, 45 was supposed to be CBS and 46 was NBC. Both channel 44 and 45 were ABC. The front desk informed me that they were unaware of that problem-when maintenane came in, it would be looked into. Due to weather conditions, the television was knocked out for most of Thursday from what I was told by a staff member, since my husband and I had left out Thursday morning around 8:30 a.m. for the funeral. It was still not available by Friday checkout time. I was fortunate that I had a small tablet where I could watch tv intermittently-the network speed didn't allow continuous video streaming. The network speed was insufficient.! How in the world is this a conference center location? When I complained about no tv and if any adjustment to the bill would be made sin e this amenity wasn't available, I was promptly informed that there would be no adjustment!! I appreciate the bereavement rate for the two days that my husband and I stayed. However, it'll be another five years, if then, that I will be staying at this Comfort Inn! There are just too many other options and I-376 is just too close, with a plethora of choices.; Rating: 3.0/5.0
Title: Comfort Inn Suites Pittsburgh Allegheny Valley; City: Pittsburgh Pennsylvania; Review: This past weekend, my family had a reunion in the Pittsburgh area. A block of rooms were reserved to accommodate some of us. Because my stay at another Comfort Inn last year was less than impressive, I was pleasantly surprised here. I felt like it was a 100 percent improvement at Gamma. The employees were generally helpful and one employee in housekeeping, whose name I should have gotten, was just great. I do plan to call there to formally raise concerns about the few things that need improvement- one being the slow speed of the wi-fi and suggestions regarding the bathrooms. One thing that I would like to see is a breakfast meat option for those who do not eat pork products. But like I mentioned, pleasantly surprised overall.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Holiday Inn Express Prince Frederick; City: Prince Frederick Calvert County Maryland; Review: My husband and I were in the area for a wedding and booked our stay at the Holiday Inn. I can't tell you the last time we stayed at one of their properties. However, upon calling to reserve, I was reminded that I was a rewards member from years ago. We arrived on Saturday and and had no issues with check in. Our room, with a king bed and overlooking the entrance, faced the main highway MD 2 and 4. Though there was a lot of traffic and the volunteer fire company is just across the street, there was noise but not over the top, given the location. All of the staff that we encountered were great. Kudos to Alexis, in housekeeping, Anthony and CeCe who were on the front desk. Any questions or concerns were answered and addressed timely. Our room was good, though as a previous reviewer stated, had a roll up shade but we had no problem with it. The cleanliness of the room was fine. We were happy to see that there was turkey sausage as part of the express breakfast since a lot of times the only breakfast meat is pork. The breakfast selection was nice, with pancakes, instead of the customary waffles and the other usual fare. Those warm cinnamon buns were tasty. One suggestion regarding the hot food tables: of course we want the food hot to avoid spoilage and other health related food issues but it was hard for me, as a 5'4" woman to get to the food on the top level of that hot table. Also, there was no real space to set your plate after maneveuring the lids and utensils that were really, really hot. Please take note!! Although my husband and I were scheduled to stay for two nights, we extended the stay by another day, just to further celebrate our belated anniversary get away. My husband and I have had opportunity to stay at a variety of accomodations, some that have been so bad, my husband would call a dive and not bother to unpack one thing from our suitcase. That didn't occur here for us. We will be traveling to Rhode Island next month where we will be staying at another Holiday Inn property. It will be nice to do a comparison so soon after this visit. Stay tuned!; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Residence Inn Atlantic City Airport Egg Harbor Township; City: Egg Harbor Township New Jersey; Review: A new thing for New Year's Eve is what we wanted. Thanks to our daughter, she was able to arrange for us to be here from New Year's Eve to the Monday after. The room was a suite with two bedrooms which was nice. The amenities that we required were available. Having the kitchen to heat up food and the refrigerator to keep items cold or frozen came in quite handy. One member of our party even went to the gym to start the New Year on a healthy note. The breakfast that was offered was an overall good variety and the staff was helpful. There were enough selections to meet the needs of most guests, I would think. Our suite was situated away from the elevator which was great. Any issues were resolved to a more than satisfactory level. We had a great time.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: Holiday Inn Express Hotel Suites West Mifflin; City: West Mifflin Pennsylvania; Review: So... this past weekend our family had their reunion in the Pittsburgh area. A family member was able to secure a block of rooms and many of us stayed here. I was happy that our rooms were available for check in earlier than 3:00 p.m., having driven more than 300 miles to get there. Ray, at the front desk, greeted us with a smile and was pleasant. My bedroom met my expectations, as did the rooms for several in my particular party. That evening, we had booked a banquet area, located on the lower level of the hotel. I was so grateful that we did not have to venture out to another location. Our family coordinator was able to get in the banquet area early afternoon. Again, Ray was very accomodating in fulfilling any necessary requests. The breakfast was sufficient enough. I was happy to see that a breakfast meat made with turkey sausage was available. Shay, who was in the breakfast area, along with another person, greeted us warmly each of the two mornings that we were there. The only complaint that I have was that my husband, who arrived for breakfast about 9:15 a.m. was unable to get a cheese omelet, though he waited for a while for more to be brought out. Checkout was without any problem. I mentioned on checking outthat the sink drained slowly. Ray mentioned that it would alert maintenance staff of the problem. Kudos to both Ray and Shay for their customer service. And to the other staff that we did encounter, they greeted us pleasantly.; Rating: 4.0/5.0
Title: St Michaels Inn; City: St Michaels Talbot County Maryland; Review: After several reversals on destination for our thirty-fifth wedding anniversary, we decided to go somewhere completely new. A friend recommended St. Michaels, MD. A review of possible lodging options, with cost being a consideration, I reserved a room at St. Michaels Inn. I spoke to Travis who was very professional and pleasant. I mentioned our impending celebration on which he congratulated us. We arrived on time and Travis and another staff person were on the desk when we checked in. We were received pleasantly and obtained our keys. Upon arrival to our room, a follow-up call from the front desk was received to see if the accommodations were okay. At first glance, though I didn't do a full examination of the room and knowing that we would be exploring St. Michaels, I replied, "so far, so good." My husband and I then went off to dinner. Upon return to our room, I then did a more thorough examination. St. Michaels Inn is a former motor inn off of the main highway into St. Michaels, MD. The furniture was older and the chair rail in the room with the desk had a bit of dust on it. And actually, the more we stayed in the room, the more we didn't care for it. And the old saying, "you get what you pay for," in this case, was applicable. However, we decided to stay the night, register any complaints and problems the next morning and then decide our course of action. After breakfast, which was about the regular items, (waffles, pork bacon, eggs, cold cereal, instant oatmeal, coffee, juice, etc.), we then headed to the front desk, with our complaints. Again, Travis was on duty and he listened to our issues and gave us an opportunity to see another, more spacious room, off the main entry way. Needless to say, ny husband and I quickly gathered our belongings, having not unpacked much, and moved into the bigger room. That room, to us was like, night and day! This particular room was supposed to be only one of two, with more spaciousness and of course, costing a little more. Though the furniture was still on the older side, the in room refrigerator and microwave were larger than in the former room. It was definitely an upgrade! The room was just so much better. We thanked Travis and we were very appreciative of his openness to receive our complaints, doing his best to make these two customers happy. Upon, checking out, two days later, having requested a late checkout, which was honored, we returned the keys to the front desk. Another staff person checked us out, without issue. He was aware of the complaints expressed earlier, mentioning that the Inn was really in bad shape before it was taken over by new management. He hoped that we would return again in the future to see the constant improvements that they were planning to implement. Who knows? But as for Travis,in particular - Thanks Travis! Your customer service is fantastic!; Rating: 3.0/5.0 | hotelrec |

Title: Fueled (The Driven Series Book 2) - Kindle edition; Brand: Visit Amazon's K. Bromberg Page; Review: I just finished Driven , I know I am so behind on my reading list. Anyways , I had to grab this book Immediately. Proving my point , is was better so wait and read these together. For if I hadn't I most likely would have been one of those other readers with a broken kindle or iPhone. Also I think that's what makes this series so damn good. You have no idea what to expect from Colton ( aka Ace ) or from Rylee. Is she going to put up with his haunted past ? Him not opening up or risking a chance on her ? Such a beautiful story as I cannot wait for the 3rd.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Obsessed (The Obsessed Series Book 1) - Kindle edition; Brand: Visit Amazon's Deborah Bladon Page; Review: I have to say, I rarely buy books in series. I'm glad I happened upon this while there are now three books. I just one-clicked two & three. Anyways, as I was saying a rarely buy series books and I was fairly surprised at home much I enjoyed this story. The cliff didn't leave you hanging to where your heart was broken, but curious and wanting to know more. We'll done :). One to book two!!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Knock Out (Reynolds Security) - Kindle edition; Brand: Visit Amazon's Melissa Hale Page; Review: Loved this story. Going to read the full series. Very steamy and heart wrenching. Also funny. Plot was developed and characters were dimensional.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Cougar Hunt (Copper River Romances Book 4) - Kindle edition; Brand: Visit Amazon's Cherime MacFarlane Page; Review: Note: I received this book from the author as a gift in exchange for an honest review. I'm not one to spoil a story by adding in spoilers or main plot details. However, I will share what I thought of this story. Cherime MacFarlane is a very gifted author, the way she crafts her words forming an amazing love story is beautiful and heart-warming. I felt every feeling that Jory and Linda were feeling, in depth. Throughout the journey of this story, Lrae discovers her true self and moves forward with her life. Joey loves Lrae, but she won't allow him to the way that he longs to. Honestly, I loved the entire story including the ending & epilogue. I cant wait to read more from Cherime. I suggest cozying yourself up in your reading nook surrounded by blankets and pillows, include a snack and a drink then One-Click this story. You won't regret it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: SLADE: Captive to the Dark - Kindle edition; Brand: Visit Amazon's Alaska Angelini Page; Review: Where to start? This book seduced me. I'm not a person to share spoilers in reviews because I believe that the reader should experience the story first hand. Alaska is an author I hadn't heard of before, until Amazon recommended this book to me. Let me tell you that in the beginning I really thought certain things, of how situations would go and they would end up going another way in the end. It kept me on my toes, never truly figuring anyone out until the very end. Each character is dimensional, their parts are explained, you fall in love (with the good people of course). The story ties itself together wonderfully, and the ending was more than perfect. I had hoped it would end that way, well because it was deserved. Cannot wait for more from Alaska, please do yourself a favor and read this.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: High Stakes (Vittorio Crime Family Book 1) - Kindle edition; Brand: Visit Amazon's Vanessa Waltz Page; Review: Written Beautifully, each character is dimensional and the story ties itself together.

Title: Doesn't Play Well With Others eBook; Brand: Visit Amazon's Casey Harvell Page; Review: Firstly, I'll say I don't like to give spoilers away. That being said I leave a lot of things out of my review. Secondly, I will say that I absolutely loved this book. It isn't for someone who doesn't like graphic language, if you're not a fan then of swear words then please, move along. Selene is fiercely independent, relying on no one. She's been given a pretty hard life and deals with it, learning as she goes. There are curveballs. I loved Henry and Alex. Selene's story tugs on your heart, you feel the emotions as you do. Personally, the greatest comedian to have ever graced the world was George Carlin. The man said it like it was, all truth, no excuses. He gave no f...s. I admired him for it, its what made me a fan in the first place. Casey Harvell writes as well as George Carlin spoke. I looked up to him as inspiration, I wanted to be like that one day, not caring what anyone else had to say but myself. Holding my own self-esteem in the palm of my hands. Casey does just that. Her words hit you, dead shot in the center of your soul. She had me hooked with her disclaimer, and then the first page. I was drowning in this story, and I didn't want to be saved. 5+ Stars! I suggest when you go to read this to make sure you have drink and food next to you before you sit down on your comfortable reading nook, you will not want to get up until you've read the last page. And even then, you'll sit there with your reading device in your hands and wonder about the story, wonder about Casey and what else she has written that you've not read. This is the first book I've read by Casey Harvell, but I can tell you it will not be the last.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Hired Gun #1 (The Sicarii Serial) - Kindle edition; Brand: Visit Amazon's A.J. Bennett Page; Review: I loved this, Aj pulled me right into the story line. I can see that today will be spent reading book 2 & 3! This is a must read!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Boss (The Boss Romance Series - Book #1) - Kindle edition; Brand: Visit Amazon's Claire Adams Page; Review: I can't wait to continue reading this serial. Claire had me intrigued. Steamy scenes and an alpha male complete my books.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: The Knot Hole (The Crossing Series Book 1) - Kindle edition; Brand: Visit Amazon's Renee Lee Fisher Page; Review: Where to begin? For Starters I will be continuing this story tonight with The Passage. The Knot Hole was an easy 5 stars for me personally. This story was told beautifully. You feel each emotion through the characters as if you were actually there. Renee Lee Fisher has outdone herself on this. Taryn takes you on an adventure of the past. It begins with her staining the wood paneling in her mothers room, her sanctuary if you will. As she's staining the paneling her hand passes through The Knot Hole. At first Taryn doesn't understand what The Knot Hole is, until she hears her mother. As the story goes on Taryn visits the dream spot and gets to experience past memories and adventures, some many, many years ago. There are surprises along the way, and I have a feeling that this is only the beginning. One-Click this for a beautiful adventure, that hasn't been done before.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: VIV Collection Popular Printed Brushed Buttery Soft Leggings Regular Plus 40+ Designs List 5; Brand: ; Review: I hardly ever write reviews unless I am really passionate about a product either for or against it. I love these leggings! I bought 2 pairs and I can't wait to wear them. They are so soft and super stretchy. At first I didn't think they'd fit me - I'm normally a 3X. They looked small. But they did and comfortably. They are long enough - I'm 5' 7.5". I don't know how they will wear over the long term and how they will come out of the wash, but for now I would recommend them.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Skechers Originals Women's Retros OG 85 Fashion Sneaker; Brand: ; Review: I love these sneakers and get so many compliments on them. However they are small. I wear a size 10 and bought a size 10. I cannot wear these sneakers with socks because they are too tight. So I'm limited regarding when I can wear them. But I love the pattern and adore how the high heel is inside. Somehow it is more comfortable and tricks my brain into forgetting there is a heel in them. I'd recommend them but just know they are small and you may want to go up a half size if you can.; Rating: 4.0/5.0

Title: Heys America Multi -Britto A New Day 21-Inch Carry-on Spinner Luggage; Brand: Heys; Review: This is a quality suitcase. I am pretty tough on it and I travel every week at least 2 days, and it is lasting. Yes, the surface is getting marked up, but the wheels are still perfect and everything else is still functioning. And the pattern is one of my favorites. I get a lot of compliments on it and I never have trouble finding my suitcase in baggage claim or in the walkway from the plane. I'd recommend it.; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Skechers Women's Reggae Slim-Vacay Sandals Flat; Brand: ; Review: These are super comfortable, especially if you have foot pain or problems walking like I do. I can work all day as a school administrator and not have any foot pain at all. They are great for people with wide feet as well. I have these in black also and I loved them so much I bought the blue. These look nice enough to go out in but they are also perfect for every day wear as well. If you like Skechers sneakers you will love these!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Keds Women's Taylor Swift Sneaky Cat Fashion Sneaker; Brand: ; Review: They're stiff so you have to wear them for a few weeks to soften them up and stretch them out a bit.

Title: Super Pet Chew Proof Water Bottle; Brand: Kaytee; Review: I tested it before I got a hamster and it seemed fine. Then when I got the hamster, I filled it and it leaked. I hit the little ball until it stopped. Well turns out it only stopped because it wasn't releasing any water! My poor hamster went possibly two days w/o water!!!

Title: Good Pet Stuff Company Hidden Cat Litter Box; Brand: Good Pet Stuff; Review: I love this box. I have it in my guest room and you cant even tell its a litter box.

Title: Aquatic Arts 5 Marimo Moss Balls - Small/Nano Aquarium Ball Set. Unique Decor for Aquariums and Glass Jar Terrarium; Brand: Aquatic Arts; Review: I cant say enough good things about these! First off, I ordered some Marimo moss balls elsewhere first. They were tiny and fake! Ive returned them and ordered these. They came super quickly. There were 7 balls instead of 5. The directions were easy and they are beautiful. All the people giving one stars for Black or smelly ones- they tell you if its black or smelly to contact them, because they must have gotten hot or cold during transit and theyd give new ones. So idk why they don't have all five stars! They should. Wonderful and most of all, real! Dont be fooled by others!; Rating: 5.0/5.0
Title: Marina LED Aquarium Kit; Brand: Marina; Review: I bought this 10gal for $65. Now its up to $80. Its a great deal at $65. Came quick. Nothing was broke. Set up is easy. Looks nice. The filter is quiet. It came clear, which I didn't quite care for. So o spray painted it black. Turned out perfectly. Cant tell at all! The only downside would be the lid I guess. I can see where people say its a bit flimsy. Kinda sucks when you want to open up the tank and such. But overall it works really well for just being there. Definitely a great tank for $65.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Handheld Vacuum, Corded, 33A1; Brand: Bissell; Review: We fostered a lab mix dog with coarse yellow hair that left hair EVERYWHERE. I have never seen a dog shed so much before in my life. This little vacuum was a lifesaver at getting the hair off of the couch and off the stairs. I would highly recommend it. It's light enough to maneuver easily and the cord is definitely long enough that you can get most jobs done without having to find more outlets. It's also easy to dump out without getting the dust everywhere. Is it 100% perfect? No, but it helped control the crazy pet hair in our household.; Rating: 5.0/5.0 | amazon_Home_and_Kitchen |

Title: A Dragon's Tale - The Prophecy - Book 1; Author: Visit Amazon's Mr Mark Boyd Page; Review: What a wonderful pleasure it was to be enchanted by this awesome story! "The Prophecy", right from the start it pulled me into the realm and kept me right there IN the middle of the story to the end! There are some very thrilling dragon exercises that make you feel as if you are holding on to their tail! WOW! The story was a great one, characters were well thought out and had their own well defined personalities....(as well as some great senses of humor!) Their conflicts were a very strong point, which is difficult to do....and make it work so well as this author has figured out the chemistry angles all the way through. The only minus.....HAHA...is that I have to wait for this fine author to put the polish on book two.....There is a great snippet of it at the end of book that does the appetite well. I cannot wait for the next part of this adventure. Thank you Mark Boyd!; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Frankenstein (Collins Classics); Author: Mary Shelley; Review: This is one of the most memorable examples of the great books of my childhood.

A true classic love story, it has been brought to the big screen as well as the stage, but to read through this book is like following along with a historian as well as the author.

Thank you.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: True Grift; Author: Visit Amazon's Jack Bunker Page; Review: You know...when someone has a good story...and good characters...why must they trash themselves and insult their intelligence by using sooo many f bombs instead of the many words that fit just as well.

Title: Public Enemies: The True Story Of America's Greatest Crime Wave; Author: BRYAN BURROUGH; Review: I would highly recommend this to anyone even remotely interested in this era and genre of our country's history. I can only begin to imagine the literal mountains of paperwork that Mr. Burrough had to sift through to put together such a fine tome. There are several books out there on all of the people mentioned in this book, but to put them all together in the same book and give someone the sense that they are there...in Chicago and St. Paul and through the Midwest into Texas and Oklahoma...in the story...it is an amazing read. Thank you so much for the tremendous amount of effort as well as insight Mr. Burrough.; Rating: 5.0/5.0

Title: Standard Catalog of Vintage Baseball Cards; Author: Sports Collectors Digest Staff; Review: Gotta say, first off...this is the 6th edition and I have owned all six. There is a ton of information that these people put into these editions, as they are very large. This 6th edition is for the vintage cards, 1863 thru 1980 only. I have always been very pleased with these. I have a very large sports card and memorabilia collection and these prove invaluable...until this edition, #6. I was going through some cards by the name of Zeenut, the years made were 1911 to 1938, I was fine until I hit 1925...Then, they stopped! I called the publisher and they said they would look into it....and they did...to tell me that they could not see how that happened! ooookaaaay. After a second call, they said they considered the case closed. So I have an incomplete book. NOW, many folks would not even need this area for their collections. I did not look page by page for any other problems, but for this edition, Amazon was cool enough to understand and see if another one would help...sent it free of charge, but when I opened it up, same info was missing. So, after a nice chat with the Amazon folks, I think they were going to put a hold on the selling of this item, and check the publisher. So if you need to order this, and you do not need to check your Zeenuts...uhhmm, it may be alright for you.; Rating: 2.0/5.0 | amazon_books |
