Belgium on steroids
... 3.00 and Wenz was wobbling a bit so we returned to check in. When the gal at the desk said our room wouldn't be ready for at least an hour I had a few severe words with her resulting in an upgrade (by 2 levels) to a de luxe room. Talk about sumptuous - Wenz took a pic. Anyone for polo?

Cult classic about a mutant baby that goes on a bloody killing spree in Los Angeles.
The sci-fi thriller 'Splice' stars Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley as superstar genetic engineers Clive and Elsa, who specialize in splicing together DNA from different animals to create incredible new hybrids. Now they want to use human DNA in a hybrid that could revolutionize science and medicine. But when the pharmaceutical company that funds their research forbids it, Clive and Elsa secretly conduct their own experiments. The result is Dren, an amazing, strangely beautiful creature of uncommon intelligence and an array of unexpected physical developments. And though, at first, Dren exceeds their wildest dreams, she begins to grow and learn at an accelerated rate, and threatens to become their worst nightmare.
It's Alive -- A baby born to a human couple turns out to be a mutant monster with an appetite to kill when scared.
It's Alive -- A modern remake of the classic 1970s horror film, It's Alive follows Lenore (Bijou Phillips), a young mother who s newborn is suspiciously connected to a string of incredibly violent and inexplicable murders.
It's Alive is a remake the 1974 film of the same name.
A baby born to a human couple turns out to be a mutant monster with an appetite to kill when scared.
A remake of the 1974 cult classic, It s Alive is a gore splattered cautionary tale of the terrifying consequences of experimental drug testing. Bijou Phillips stars as Lenore Harker, a normal High School senior who seems to have it all: a boyfriend who loves her, great grades and a new baby on the way. Above all, she is certain of one thing, the baby she and Frank (James Murray) are expecting is going to be special. The fate of the happy new couple takes a sinister turn as the doctors and nurses delivering their baby are all brutally murdered, leaving just Lenore and her baby miraculously safe. As the police frantically try to unravel the mystery, strange and frightening events begin to occur back at the house. Cocooned in blissful motherhood Lenore is unable to connect the mounting gruesome deaths piling up around her with the sweet child in her arms. As the horrifying truth becomes clear and their home becomes a house of horror, Lenore must choose between ending the life of her baby or sacrificing herself to save the family she loves.

I was at Raymond Guitars yesterday and watched as he steamed the neck joint on my 1980 Martin D-28-12 in prep for a neck re-set and re-fret. Cool pics, well not cool the steam was hot!!! It was really unnerving to see that neck joint steam and then the neck just slide off! Not for amateurs!!! Edward

The most difficult aspect of collecting and redeeming frequent flier miles is trying to determine how much those miles are worth. Without that information, you won't know if you should use miles in one program or another, or simply pay cash.
Some reviewers feel entitled and use the reviews to extract or obtain freebies from the hotels. Commenters who have a low number of reviews or a pattern of posting numerous harsh or auspicious reviews are dubious.
These destinations, where the earth's crust breaks open with bubbling mud, gushing hot springs, and steamy vapors, are gorgeous places to exhale.
Don't let fear of cold weather cloud your vision of the perfect winter vacation.
The sleek Ghan train was my conveyance from Alice Springs to Darwin, Australia this past fall. The 24-hour ride was the last stop on the trek up through the Northern Territory.
Thanksgiving is undoubtedly the busiest travel time of the year. This year, let's strive to not get yelled at by TSA officers and not get dirty looks from the people behind us! To get through security as quickly as possible, all you have to do is follow these tips.
There is no one-size-fits-all cruise ideal for everyone, but U.S. News' Best Cruises 2015 rankings make the decision-making process easier by identifying the lines that consistently deliver exceptional experiences.
The question "Is a cruise for you?" might seem like a silly one. After all, with the open air, the exotic destinations and the all-you-can-eat buffets, what's not to love about a cruise?
Over the last few months we polled some of The World's Greatest Travelers and compiled their list of favorite travel websites. We have cut to the chase here and identified what we have selected as the 101 stars.
When you consider that all meals, activities and lodging are bundled into one rate, it's easy to see why cruise vacations are steadily growing in popularity.
Thanksgiving is right around the corner! But beware... Thanksgiving is the busiest travel time of the year. This means more flight delays, overbookings and cancellations.
To walk labyrinthine streets, marvel at crumbling fortress walls, or see kings' tombs that have endured thousands of years is to experience a fleeting moment of what life was like for the first civilizations on Earth.
There are other public spaces, from museums to amusement parks to stores, that allow pajama-clad guests to park their sleeping bags beneath dinosaur bones or waterslides and stay until morning.
I don't have a work-around for these issues; however, I do have some tips to help lessen back and neck pain while taking that flight to your holiday destination.
To help you avoid common blunders, like flying to your departure port on the same day your cruise embarks or neglecting to reserve shore excursions, we've come up with nine ways to ensure a gratifying vacation from start to finish.

While privacy concerns are understandable, what most people care about at the end of the day is the price-value equation.

If you can use past behaviors and stated preferences to deliver a better experience and waste less time, go for it.

Vivid Named Studio of the Year- XCritic Consumer Reviews
Imagine if nymphs became neighbors and there was Lizzy London having hot, steamy sex with Evan Stone. Her natural tits bouncing as her big butt pounds out a big beat. Then there's cutie Riley Reid, hot, young, and craving cock. Hey wait, a house is not a home without Jennifer White and her perfect tits, having insatiable sex. And in walks Natasha Nice, who likes her cock on the dark side, so she fucks black JonJon hard, have three orgasms until he comes all over her pretty face. And what neighborhood wouldn't be complete without a 'ho like Cassandra Nix, who fucks the shit out of John Strong, her long legs wrapped around everything in sight. Think you've been around the block? You ain't seen nothing yet.
It's the sharpest look in porn...shot with a clarity beyond belief. And believe it...there's so very much to see...B. Skow takes you to the back seat of a cool car for an Allie masturbation, suck and fuck spectacular. Then Skow captures Allie outside, bathed in beautiful, natural light as she takes on the biggest dick she's ever seen...Billy Glide's. Then it's back outdoors as Sasha Sweet and James Deen fuck across a picnic table, followed by beautiful Megan Foxx totally covered in Xander Corvus' cum. Lastly Allie returns with Cassandra Nix in a sopping wet lesbian showstopper. We say "I Love Sex." You'll just say I love this movie.

I looked at the recipe and thought it could use a little more flavor, so I added 1 tsp. of vanilla to the wet mix and 1/4 tsp of ginger and a pinch of cloves to the dry mix and it turned out great. The baking time was closer to 12 minutes, but i prefer my cookies a bit more chewy than crispy.
These are delicious! I made the recipe as is, no alterations. They did not spread too much at all. I wouldn't call them "snaps" because they are chewy, but I prefer chewy cookies so they're perfect. Unlike other reviewers, I didn't have a problem with the cookies spreading too much. I used real butter and softened it by smashing it up with a wooden spoon rather than the microwave. That might be why they didn't get super thin in the oven.
Very good! Initially, I thought that dropping the dough by 1/2 teaspoon increments wasn't large enough, but it definitely is, so don't make my mistake and drop by 1 teaspoon increments; this dough spreads quite a bit. I'm going to add some coconut the next time I make these. As written though, this is a fabulous recipe! Thanks for sharing it.

Ubuntu 10.10, v3.0_rc6 of AMSQLB. Everything going fine until I try encryption. It says:
cp: cannot stat `daily_db_2013-03-10_23h11m_Sunday.sql.bz2.bz2.enc': No such file or directory
Which makes sense, as the file is called
Why would it be appending the extra .bz2? I've tried it with gzip and I've also tried turning incremental off, but it still does it.
I had a similar issue when coping to the latest directory. I cured it by changing line 307 of the main script to:
cp -al "${1}.enc" "${CONFIG_backup_dir}"/latest/
(ie. deleting the extension variable)
Perhaps a similar or even the same fix would work for you?

Top Sleep Tech
Hibernation science has come a long way since Han Solo was frozen in carbonite. From alarm clocks that come alive to apps that track your sleep cycle, there are plenty of options out there to help you get a good night's rest. And it's a good thing, too. According to Dr. Jeffrey Epstein, Chief Medical Officer for Sleep Health Centers in Brighton, MA, we're often the worst judges when it comes to our own sleep habits, so any device that points out or attempts to correct inadequacies can be "quite helpful." Here are some apps, gadgets, and gizmos that are the best to have by your bedside.
One of the keys to a good night's sleep, of course, is to make sure you remain fit and healthy in your waking life. The only tech you need there is a DVD player and the Delta Fit Speed Shred program. Get yours today!
Wake-up Light Plus
Here comes the sun—sort of. While most bedside clocks focus on sound to rouse you, the Philips Wake-up light attempts to simulate the conditions of dawn through a UV-free halogen bulb that gradually gets brighter 30 minutes before your alarm is set to go off. The sleek-looking lamp also has a "dusk simulation" feature that you can activate right before you fall asleep, which can be a boon for those who do a lot of traveling and have problems with jet lag. "The most potent factor in shifting the circadian cycle is light," says Dr. Jeffrey Epstein, Chief Medical Officer for Sleep Health Centers in Brighton, MA. "So simulators can help you sync your internal clock." Bonus: the light comes with a USB port for uploading your favorite songs to wake up to, just in case the artificial dawn isn't enough motivation.

Renew SleepClock
Forget blaring alarms that ruin your morning. This handy device from Gear4 works with your iPhone or iPad to monitor your sleep pattern and gently wake you up when your cycle is at its lightest. There are no headbands or other attachments—just a motion detector that tracks how much you toss and turn. But the data is limited (you should always seek out a specialist if your sleep health is suffering for an extended amount of time). Faults aside, the interface on the Renew app is clean and easy-to-use, while the hardware would look attractive on any nightstand. Sweet dreams, indeed.
Of course, if your goal is to stay awake—for more sex, we've got another solution for you. Find out How to Last Longer In Bed.

You're getting sleepy… very sleepy. While most ambient noise apps attempt to make do with Enya-like sound loops, Pzizz attempts a more hypnotic experience, with soothing, modulated voices that ease you into your night's rest through Zen-like encouragement. Those with serious insomnia or sleep disorders should still seek professional help, but the app's robust algorithm that cues up different sounds with each use (along with remixes) can certainly work wonders for those who have experienced trouble getting quality shut-eye. Now, if only they'd find a name that's easier to pronounce.
$6; iTunes
Sleep Sound Therapy System
Creating a comfortable atmosphere is essential to a good night's rest. "The room should be quiet and dark, with controlled temperature," says Dr. Jeffrey Epstein, Chief Medical Officer for Sleep Health Centers in Brighton, MA. "If it's too noisy, a sound machine can help mask things." Sound Oasis' S-650 Sleep Therapy System does so with more than 24 digitally recorded sound tracks (our favorite is the "island stream"). The device boasts claims about matching frequencies with your brain waves, but really the Sleep Therapy System is simply a solid sound machine that helps you relax. Features like auto shutoff and a built-in alarm that will wake you up as subtly as it put you to sleep are the only science you'll really need.
$80; Sound-oasis.com
Sleep Talk Recorder
According to studies, about 5% of adults talk in their sleep (one of several behaviors known as NREM or non-rapid eye movement). This usually occurs between different phases of the sleep cycle and can be sometimes be caused by insomnia, anxiety, or stress. One way to find out if you're babbling in bed (or just snoring really loudly) is to download this app, which records your nighttime sounds and filters out any extraneous noise. The results might be enlightening—or hilarious (one app function allows you to share the recordings with friends, or the app community at large). Just be careful you don't leave it on during that recurring Kate Upton dream you've been having…
(Besides Kate, want to have the body you always dreamed of? The check out the Lean Belly Plan, the no-diet, no-workout prescription to lose your gut.)

Zeo Sleep Manager Pro
If you're regularly getting 7-8 hours of sacktime, but still feel groggy, Zeo can help. The device wirelessly syncs with your iPhone or Android device and records your sleep patterns during the night through a headband that measures brain waves. In the morning, the Zeo app will analyze the data, provide a detailed breakdown of how much deep sleep you experienced, then give you a number called a ZQ score that rates your quality of rest. Keep in mind that Zeo does not monitor breathing, blood pressure, pulse, or other bodily functions that would provide a more well-rounded picture of your sleep health. But, as Dr. Meir Kryger (author of The iGuide to Sleep) says, "Tech [like this] is useful to get people thinking seriously about how much quality sleep they actually get."
$99; MyZeo.com
FitBit Ultra
The minds at FitBit sure know how to pack a lot into a small package. Their latest gadget—the FitBit Ultra—is essentially the size of a clothespin and comes with a wristband to monitor your sleep patterns at night. But the beauty of this well-designed little device is that it stays with you through your waking life as well, displaying an accurate count of steps taken, stairs climbed, and calories burned through a sophisticated motion sensor that syncs up to free mobile apps. You can even get it to work with Loseit, Mapmyfitness, and Runkeeper, leaving no fitness tracker unturned. Think of it as a digital trainer that fits into your pocket, motivating you to stay healthy night and day.
$100; FitBit.com
Lightning Bug
Call it DJ White Noize! This app for Android users allows you to choose from over 200 different sound samples and loops to mix into an ambient slumber soundtrack. You can also customize a variety of backgrounds to go with your tracks, whether inspired by rainstorms, ocean waves, or meditation bells (be sure to check for new content-in plug-ins to keep things fresh). The sound quality is so good, you may want to just chill and listen to the app during waking hours as well.
Free; Google Play
You snooze, you lose, right? Clocky aims to fix that. What looks like the evil love child of Wall-E and R2D2 is actually a sophisticated alarm clock that physically jumps off your bedside table when you hit the snooze button. It then continues to roll around until you can catch it and silence its robotic bleeps (which are extremely loud, by the way). Clocky was built to withstand drops from heights of up to three feet, and the tread on those 3.5-inch wheels allow it to make getaways even on thick rugs. The gimmick should be novel for sleepers bored by the standard clock radio alarms, but fair warning—if you don't sleep alone, Clocky may ensure you do before long.

Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock
For those who don't want to spend time in a sleep lab or shell out big bucks for bulky sleep monitoring devices, this app may be just the right kind of investment. Sleep Cycle uses your iPhone's accelerometer to keep tabs on your nighttime movements when placed under your sheet or pillow, then wakes you during your lightest sleep phase. It also provides an easy-to-read graph analyzing the data collected (the caveat being that simply tracking movement does not give a full picture of sleep health). The tracker may be a little sensitive to every twitch and spasm, but you might be pleasantly surprised at how well-rested you are after a few uses.

Rizzo struggling, but Castro perplexing
August, 23, 2013
By Jesse Rogers
Brian Kersey/Getty ImagesStruggling young stars Starlin Castro and Anthony Rizzo haven't shared many high-fives this season.CHICAGO -- There seems to be a perception among Chicago Cubs fans that shortstop Starlin Castro endures an unfair amount of criticism, especially when compared to another Cubs cornerstone, first baseman Anthony Rizzo.
Starlin Castro
Chicago Cubs
Contrary to what you might think, this isn't so much another attack on Castro as it is a defense of Rizzo. His year -- despite an 0-for-6 on Thursday -- isn't as bad as many are making it out to be while at the same time there are answers to his struggles. Castro is more perplexing.
Let's start with Rizzo.
Anyone who follows the Cubs is aware of his abysmal batting average. It's down to .229 after Thursday's performance. It stinks. There's no question if he wants to be a star player in this league it needs to be higher. Colleague Jon Greenberg documented his struggles in a recent column, but for our purposes we don't need the details, we just know he's not getting enough base-hits. But is Rizzo contributing? Is he showing promise as a player in his first full season?
The answer is a resounding yes.
Despite his poor average, and despite little protection in the lineup, Rizzo has walked 60 times. That's good for seventh in the National League. He ranks 11th in home runs with 20 and has 68 runs batted in, tied for 13th. None of those numbers is going to win him the MVP award or get him to an All-Star game but they aren't worthy of the panic which seems to accompany talk of his future. If his powers numbers continue to improve yet he's a low batting average kind of guy he'll still be very valuable. That's the worst case scenario.
But then there's his .173 batting average with men in scoring position. That's beyond awful. With men on base he should be getting pitches to hit and he's not doing much with them. Obviously, that statistic is partly a product of his overall poor average but here's the thing: so what? That stat will change from year to year and even if it doesn't, it's way too early to know what kind of a hitter he will be over time with men in scoring position. All-Star Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman is hitting .442 this year with men in scoring position. Last season he hit .219. And Freeman is more established than Rizzo. When people say Rizzo has regressed, what exactly has he regressed from? A half-season in the majors? He doesn't have a large enough base-line from which to make judgments. Maybe next year, but not now, not yet.
That's not the case with Castro. This is his fourth year with the Cubs. There's little doubt he's still developing considering he's only 23 years old. But that doesn't mean he isn't above criticism and it certainly means there is a baseline from which to judge. So what is Castro contributing? Where is the promise which Rizzo is at least showing in some areas?
He has a .240 batting average with seven home runs and 32 runs batted in. That's in 126 games played. Donnie Murphy has eight home runs in 16 games. Castro leads the National League in errors with 16, and though there is no statistic for mental gaffes, anyone who's watched the Cubs knows he might lead the league there too. He stole 25 bases last year, but he's 8-for-13 this season after getting caught twice on Thursday. Nearly nothing has gone right, save some highlight plays at shortstop. But he's offset those with the mental gaffes and miscues on routine plays.
That doesn't mean he's not talented and it doesn't mean he can't rebound after his first regression since making it to the major leagues and becoming a two-time All-Star. But even with a positive outlook, there is no guarantee with Castro. The signs with Rizzo might be there but Castro looks miles away -- at least right now he does.
Anthony Rizzo
First Base
Chicago Cubs
"Logically, yeah," he responded. "I think patience is always going to (win) out over the other. But sometimes it takes a process to be patient."
In other words, understanding when to be aggressive in the zone and when to be patient outside of it is a developing thing for a young player and Castro is stuck in the middle right now.
Here's another perplexing one: Most hitters who are maturing will start using the entire field. Castro goes to right as much as anyone in the game. For example, according to ESPN Stats and Information he divides his outs to the outfield almost identically, about 33 percent to left, center and right. The league average for outs from a right-handed hitter to right field is 26 percent. So he goes to right field, except he simply makes outs in that direction instead of getting hits. He does make 5 percent more outs on line drives to right field than the league average so maybe he's been unlucky in that direction this year, and maybe those start falling next season, which could end this discussion. At least he's not just some flashy young player trying to pull everything.
So again, when looked at on paper, Castro should be having more success but he's not. A right-handed hitter becoming more patient and spraying the ball to right should show some results. So what's the answer with him? If hitting coach James Rowson knew or Sveum or the front office then maybe he could start to turn it around. Castro's only answer is to go back to being more aggressive. He said as much this week. And if that brings back the old Castro, then that's great, because the guy who became the youngest player in history to lead the NL in hits with 207 in 2011 can be an offensive force.
Rizzo has had other problems as well. Early in the season -- and even some lately -- he's had some issues in the field, but based on this year, there is hope to Rizzo's struggles while Castro continues to be a head scratcher. The point is, if you're going to worry about the Cubs young stars then save most of it for their shortstop.

DEFINITION of 'Price-Weighted Index'
A stock index in which each stock influences the index in proportion to its price per share. The value of the index is generated by adding the prices of each of the stocks in the index and dividing them by the total number of stocks. Stocks with a higher price will be given more weight and, therefore, will have a greater influence over the performance of the index.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Price-Weighted Index'
For example, assume that an index contains only two stocks, one priced at $1 and one priced at $10. The $10 stock is weighted nine times higher than the $1 stock. Overall, this means that this index is composed of 90% of the $10 stocks and 10% of $1 stock.
In this case, a change in the value of the $1 stock will not affect the index's value by a large amount, because it makes up such a small percentage of the index.
A popular price-weighted stock market index is the Dow Jones Industrial Average. It includes a price-weighted average of 30 actively traded blue chip stocks.

BERLIN -- Nuremberg substitute Sebastian Polter scored in the second minute of injury time to rescue a 2-2 draw against Hannover in the Bundesliga on Sunday, while Stuttgart ended its five-game losing run with a 1-0 win at Hoffenheim.
"It's an important point for us," Nuremberg coach Michael Wiesinger said after his side preserved its eight-game unbeaten run at home. "The equalizer showed our morale again but we have to cut out our mistakes."
Hannover midfielder Szabolcs Huszti opened the scoring against the run of play in the 41st when he cut inside defender Timm Klose before blasting the ball past goalkeeper Raphael Schaefer.
Klose atoned with only his second Nuremberg goal in the 53rd, with a backward header from Hiroshi Kiyotake's perfectly delivered free kick.
Japanese midfielder Mu Kanazaki came on for his Bundesliga debut in the 63rd, but the visitors went ahead five minutes later when Mohammed Abdellaoue crossed for Didier Ya Konan.
Nuremberg kept pushing for the equalizer and Polter deservedly scored when U.S. international Timothy Chandler crossed for him to beat Ron-Robert Zieler from close range.
"We have to defend that better. It's very annoying," said Hannover captain Christian Schulz, whose side was beaten 3-1 by Anzhi Makhachkala in the Europa League on Thursday. "Very annoying."
Martin Harnik's third-minute goal was enough for Stuttgart to climb to 12th and away from the relegation zone, while Hoffenheim is now 10 points adrift in the relegation playoff place.
"That was our worst game today. Such an early goal in our situation cannot be excused," Hoffenheim coach Marco Kurz said.
Harnik sent Ibrahima Traore free on the left and then met the Guinea midfielder's cross with a header in off the underside of the bar.
Traore -- who was outstanding throughout -- and then Vedad Ibisevic went close shortly afterward as the visitors dominated, but Hoffenheim came more into the game as the half progressed and Joselu's effort was deflected narrowly wide in the 38th.
Sven Ulreich pulled off crucial saves to deny the home side an equalizer, most notably in the 64th, when he got the better of Joselu in a one-on-one when the Spaniard should have scored.
"We fought for the win," Stuttgart coach Bruno Labbadia said. "We always said we need to remain calm. The team has always shown it's willing."

When you've been in the e-learning biz (or any industry for that matter) for a long time, you experience many developments, trends, fads, fashions, and of course numerous changes in jargon and terminology. Years ago (I'll let you try to pinpoint the date from clues in the piece), I wrote a brief blurb on "The Three Main Types of E-learning" that found its way into a couple Brandon Hall Research reports we were working on (including the one on E-learning in the Non-Profit Sector, which is why the examples are from NGO e-learning initiatives).
The three categories suggested were:
- Self-paced e-learning
- Live e-learning
- Online collaborative learning
This is pretty basic stuff, but even today it is surprising how much confusion remains about just what e-learning is, and isn't. The above simple categorization hasn't spoiled in the bottle yet because it still seems useful and relevant, and the types suggested are mutually exclusive, and still cover pretty well what we do in e-learning. The little piece also makes reference to performance support and blended learning, two concepts that are still widely in use in the industry.

Historical Traveler Reviews Kona Kai Resort San Diego
An overall great hotel!
Shelter Pointe was great! The room was perfect, great views, clean bathrooms. It was at a great location. I definately reccomend this!
Great Hotel
Large room with dinning area. Great marina view. Grounds were very nice. Not that far from Seaworld. Ballpark water taxi right across the street. We were very happy here and will return.
Super place and staff
We arrived at about 8:30 pm on a Saturday night fearing that because of the late hour of check-in, we would have a droll room. To our joy, we found that all the rooms were full and that we would have to be placed in the town house (I hate it when that happens). The town house's are just that, 2 story with 2 master suites, living room and small but complete kitchen. The view was of the Harbor and boat slips (darn). The rooms were clean save the carpet which needs some attention. The entire staff was most cheerful and full of knowledge about the area. We are looking forward to going back to San Diego, just to stay there again(and maybe visiting our favorite Nephew). The food in AJ's is outstanding(I personally loved the Filet) for those who want to stay close to the hotel at night . the prices are reasonable and service outstanding. We highly recommend this property for those whose budget permits.
Not bad for a hundred bucks
My husband and I stayed here for two nights on our honeymoon. We were given a room that faced all the boats in the marina, and it was a great view. The room was clean with very up to date decorations. There were running and walking paths all over the place, which was nice. The hotel had a computer with internet access and was close to downtown and other attractions. We checked internet rates and found it for $99 per night.
Shelter Pointe is great!!!
Shelter Pointe is great! I stayed there a few years ago and the rooms are clean, AJ's grill has a great values for dinner (and the best brunch!). I also loved the pools. Some days they were a bit full but one day we had the pool all to ourselves! The grounds are beautiful and the lookout to the marina is surely not to be missed. It is close to attractions but still keeps the peace. I definetly enjoyed my memorable stay in San Diego because of Shelter Pointe!
Disappointed with the rooms
Two of us stayed at the Shelter Pointe Hotel on November 10, 2003. The room that the front desk clerk had reserved for us was unacceptable: there was a large stain on the carpet in a very prominent place (near the front door and the bathroom) and there were numerous dark spots around and in the bathtub. The front desk clerk sent us to another room which also had a splatter-stain on the carpet, but we took the room because we could hide the stain with the footstool, and the room had other good points: a king bed in a non-smoking room, a private small balcony with 2 chairs, a roomy area by the sink and bathroom. When we went to bed, we heard the loud voices of children from the next room, so we could not sleep. I phoned the front desk to ask someone to get the neighbor room children to quiet down. I presume the hotel staff did something because the children quieted down soon after that.
OK for a quick weekend getaway
The quality of the hotel was modest. The location was good. The beach, though small, met my needs for some weekend R&R. The room was clean, but quite small. Given the price, it's not a bad weekend getaway. Just don't expect something fancy.
Good value/location
My family of 4 stayed at this hotel for 9 nights in August. Found it very comfortable and had easy driving access to all the major attractions in San Diego. The staff was very helpful and the cleaning crew did a great job. Booked a low priced room through internet and then upgraded at check-in for $10.00/night which was worth it. Had a quiet room overlookin ther private sand beach and marina. the kids loved the pool, and the ocean breeze made it quite comfortable outside.
No noticable noise from airport or navy base. Easy access to San Diego airport. The rooms have a small fridge and the old type of air conditioner. They are fine for 4 people but a little on the small side.Although our room was very clean and had newer finishes, I could not help notice that there seamed to be other guests complaining about their rooms, so we may have got lucky, I say pay for the upgrade
Concierge took time to find us a restaurant
I checked in on Friday at 4pm, and although our room was non-view they upgraded us to a view. They charge $8 a day for parking w/ in and out privileges. When I got to my room I was pleased with the decor (exactly the same as the room in the website), but I was disappointed with the size. It was extremely small. The bathroom/vanity were fairly standard. The housekeeping service was poor, I called housekeeping for more towels and we never got them, I had to call again the next morning, but the rooms were serviced and we never saw the maids. The area is on a peninsula with about four other hotels. The hotel is surrounded on both sides with water. Its not the kind of place you'd really go swimming in, but its got a sandy area, and a volleyball net, and a place to walk your dog on the beach. Its not especially picturesque, but it doesn't hurt the eye either. The hotel appeared to be well maintained. They had tennis courts available, and appered to be free to guests. I did not try the restaurant but did look at the menu and it was a typical overpriced american food hotel restaurant. If you have kids there is a playground just a little bit down the street. The hot tub and pool were adequate, nothing special. But the conceirge did spend a lot of time trying to find my boyfriend and I a restaurant that would suit our tastes, and even had menus on hand for about six of the local restaurants. We recommend the Japanese sushi place down the street.
Very disappointing; poor service
Arrived at 2pm from the East Coast for a week long conference. Sorry! couldn't check in until 4pm. 4pm, Sorry we're still cleaning your room. 5pm, Assigned me the wrong room, necessitating a long return trip to the front desk. Finally got into my room at 6pm. Front desk personnel were unhelpful, seemed annoyed that I was interupting their personal conversations.
Very poor room service. Overpriced on-premise restaurant. No place to get a convenient bagel and juice.
Rooms were not cleaned promptly. Often they were still cleaning at 4pm. Several rooms had ants.
All in all VERY disappointing.

We arrived in San Diego Wednesday morning! I unfortunately had to go straight to work but afterwards I met Matthew at our hotel, The Hilton at Torrey Pines in La Jolla. It is a gorgeous hotel and our room had pretty views of the golf course! Tonight we ate at the hotel. We sat outside in perfect weather with views overlooking the pool.

We were already north of San Diego, so we decided to drive there and stop at just one winery that had been my favorite, Longshadow Ranch.
