Rated 5 out of 5 by Salmon123 Customer Care Sometimes, it is only when something goes wrong on a holiday that one finds out how much the hotel you are staying in cares about your welfare. On our recent trip with my family to Le Royal Meridien in Dubai, my 15 year old grandson developed acute appendicitis. The very fact that the hotel has such commitment to customer care to have, on site, paramedics and a doctor, ensured that his symptoms were quickly diagnosed and he was swiftly referred to hospital where an operation revealed that any delay could have had serious consequences. The care and support out family received during the ordeal can only be described as incredible and the management and staff at Le Royal Meridien have my family's sincere thanks and admiration. Well done and many thanks, Le Royal Meridien, Dubai!! Jack Meredith Chief Executive Meredith (uk) Ltd. November 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Edmo1 Value for money Once again we returned to the Royal Meridien beach hotel for our autumn break . As always we find the hotel and facilities to the highest standard. The hotel has many excellent restaurants but an old favourite of ours is the Brasserie which is extremely good value for families . The head waiter Paul and his staff are extremely polite , courteous and helpful . You can dine outside on the terrace or inside in the air conditioned restaurant . It offers an international buffet of hot and cold food with live cooking using only the finest produce from all over the world . Every possible need is catered for and for families the atmosphere is relaxed and enjoyable . This hotel shines amongst others and is a must if you are visiting Dubai . November 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sandy5555 great location Close to the beach, marina and the Walk so great location for strolling. 15 minutes from the metro station with access to many areas but a taxi is still needed for others. Pool area is fantastic and breakfast was good. Food Prices were too high for us to eat there but there are many other options nearby. Staff very attentive and sleep quality was the best ever !

Rated 5 out of 5 by Liam80 Holiday of a lifetime. Myself, my wife and my 18 month old son stayed for a week in the newly refurbished tower club room. This was our 3rd visit to the hotel, and each time the hotel keeps improving. I must say the refurbishment in the club room was outstanding. This was our first family holiday with our son Tyler jay and the staff at le royal meridien made our stay an unforgettable and special first holiday as a family. As we arrived in our room, there was a cuddly toy for our son and tokens for the penguin club. The children's pool, the penguin club, the park, mini golf and football field are all amazing facilities to keep children occupied. We would like to thank the staff at the tower breakfast and afternoon tea for making our son feel special with his own baby cutlery and for doing all they can to cater for his special dietary needs. Shalou and Christian always made a big fuss of him. Le royal meridien will always hold a special place in our hearts as this is the place where me and my wife got married back in may 2011. Our wedding day and our stay at the hotel was perfect in every way and every detail was taken care of by brilliant staff. Mark the manager and Pam the general manager always looked after us and our family and friends, and words can't describe how appreciative we are to them. We will keep coming back to this hotel, as mentioned earlier with each visit there is always something new and exciting to make our holiday unforgettable. We highly recommend this holiday to anyone as we believe it caters for everything that you could possibly need. November 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Samantha45 Second to none service We have stayed at this hotel on a number of occasions and are never disappointed. The service is excellent and the recently renovated pool bar area is great for lunchtime drinks and food or a pre dinner cocktail. There are numerous indoor and outdoor restaurants all with fabulous food and service. The pool bar area can get a little busy at weekends and unfortunately the beach was being reconstructed when we stayed which was out of the control of the hotel. There was also a restriction on drinking alcohol during our stay for one day, whilst we have no problem with this, we were only advised the day before. Ideally, we should have been advised ahead of our stay November 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gary2000 The staff are very attentive. This was our 6th visit to the hotel and we are never disappointed.We cannot fault the hotel from the fabulous staff, who look after every wish of the customer, to the fine choice of restaurants.We shall look forward to our 7th.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Susan96 Wonderful Hotel! We stayed at the Royal Meridien for the first time in October and had an amazing stay. The hotel is beautiful and the staff so pleasant and efficient. Every member of staff was so helpful and they went out of their way to make our stay as good as it could be. Our bedroom was kept spotless and was very comfortable. The food in the Brasserie which was where we ate all our meals, including breakfast, was delicious and well prepared. The bar food is excellent as well. The grounds of the hotel are extensive with so many different areas to sit in and several pools to choose from, as well as the beach. The location of the hotel, on Jumeirah Beach, is perfect for visiting Dubai and seeing all the sights - just the best location! I can't wait to visit the hotel again - it was just fabulous!

Rated 5 out of 5 by GaryGS Return trip doesn't disappoint My family and I have just returned from a fantastic 5 night stay at Le Royal Meridien, which was our second visit this year. We arrived early morning and was checked in straight away, along with an upgrade to suite which was a fantastic surprise. The room was a decent size and everything in the room and the hotel was explained fully by the member of staff who showed us to our room. We weren't celebrating anything, but was pleasantly surprised to receive a belated birthday cake for my daughter which was sent to our room, and also lovely flowers which was a nice touch. The staff were always friendly and nothing was ever too much for them and they went out of their way to accommodate any requests that we had. The lower pool was clean and there was always enough loungers. A member of staff recognised us from our previous visit which was nice. The staff go around handing out ice buckets,cold towels and cold water sprays which is a bonus. The beach was partially closed due to ongoing beach erosion works, but this wasn't a major problem for us. As we were half board we used our daily allowance and ate in all the a la carte restaurants, except the new one which wasn't open. I would recommend this hotel to anyone that wants a bit of luxury and brilliant service. Thank you Le Royal Meridien for a great holiday . We will be returning! October 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by MREJ Fantastic Staff I have stayed at this hotel on a number of occasions and without fail have always been impressed by the incredibly friendly, helpful and professional staff. October 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sue6692 Amazing Hotel Just had our fourth stay at the hotel, it just gets better and better. ALL staff are excellent, but special mention to Christian and Shula in the club lounge, Ephraun at the infinity pool bar, Hussain and Pappu, sun beds/towels, Roy, who gets everywhere, and Eddy. We had yet another great meal at Maya, our favourite waiter is Juan. Geales is on the list for another meal next time, great food and atmosphere. Yet again we got spoilt with sparkling wine, chocolate strawberries and box of chocolates in our room on arrival, we can't fault this hotel at all and cannot wait for our next visit, it's like coming home, thank you all for another wonderful time. October 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Carlies Anniversary celebration The hotel couldn't do enough to make our stay special. Our silver wedding was kindly recognised with a room upgrade, flowers, choccies and drinks which far surpassed our expectations. The a la carte restaurants and bars are fantastic and have benefitted from recent modernisations. During the day the huge amount of land means you have lots of space if you need it to avoid feeling hemmed in. we had a great time here. Thanks team. October 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Anna66 EXCELLENT STAY IN ;) Very exciting experience, everything was perfect! The staff responsiveness was great , every person of the staff had a great and positive attention to customer. It's a perfect location to relax with many attentions very very appreciated. October 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JLS14 Fantastic staff All the staff at Le Royal Meridien are incredibly good at customer service. From the first smile of the doorman as they open the car door, to every member of staff you come into contact with. Nothing is too much trouble. October 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Paulschoey350 Fantastic All Round Hotel This was our 4th visit since May 2013, and our 3rd visit in 2014 - say no more! Great hotel with very professional and courteous staff - always very polite and helpful. Food and beverages equally of the top order. Would recommend this hotel every day. Faultless. Will be back early next year. October 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Anni81 The best place for vacation in Dubai The hotel was perfectly clean, the staff was so responciible, the features, the food was very good, the room was without any comments. The only thing which hasn't been mentioned is that the more expensive rooms with sea view have direct view to a non stop reconstruction works and there is noise 24 hours a day. Same on the beach. My personal opition is that these rooms have to be with lower price and this has to be mentioned somewhere during reservation. October 21, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Marie47 Customer Care WOW Cant praise this hotel enough.It was my first visit to this hotel after recommendation but my 5th visit to Dubai and I can honestly say my mum and I had the best experience. We celebrated my Mum's 70th birthday and they made her feel sooo special from room and half board upgrade with champagne and flowers on arrival.. October 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Grabaneck The best staff in the world The staff at this hotel treat all guest as royalty they never stop smiling and the service is above excellant. The whole hotel, gardens, restaurants, rooms are so clean no litter anywhere. Service in the Brasserie without exception is more than you would wish for. I needed to use the Medical Centre for the first week of my holiday so much care from the Medical Team. The reason guest come back time after time is because no other hotel has the atmosphere of the Royal Meridien and Royal is the key word. October 17, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by auntyB Paradise for 2 weeks On our 3rd. visit to the LRM, it has certainly kept up its standards. From the welcome, to rooms, all the staff, without exception, were so friendly, and couldn't do enough for us. With having such a choice of restaurants to eat in (including the Grosvenor House HOtel,) the hardest decision was where to eat!! The beach will be excellent once the work has been finished, but it didn't bother us at all, as there is plenty of beach to go on. The facilities at Caracella Spa, and the Hamman pools, were a good way to relax after a hard day in perfect weather!!! October 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JDHBRID Just gets BETTER ! Once again a fantastic stay ! Well done Pam,Mark & TEAM, How you keep rejuvenating the LRM is fantastic ! The food experience in all restaurants is superb, the addition to the selection with Geales and the soon to be Zengo's (we could only look) is fantastic ! We also went over to GH and tried Indigo & Rhodes W1 again both exceptional in the case of Indigo we all thought WOW what taste !!! We have NO bad words for our stay from Roy(pool towel boy) throughout the whole team to Roy(butler) they are all there helping to make a stay so pleasurable !!! WELL DONE TO ALL October 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by IrishMaryAnn Excellent choice in Dubai spent a week at this hotel recently and I must say we were delighted with it. We had a Royal Club room, comfortable, spotless, spacious with great views out over the pools and beyond to the sea. Food and beverage choices were excellent. Buffet lunch had a great selection of Thai, Indian, European and Middle Eastern food, and everything tasted great. Cocktails and canapes in the evening in the Club Lounge were included in the Club room rate and were lovely. Service in the hotel was very impressive, everyone was so helpful and friendly. Thanks for the Roses and Bubbly in my room for my birthday! Yes, I will definitely be back. October 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ralston70 5 star hotel Just spent 10 days at Le Royal Meridien where the service and quality really 5 star.Superb choice of restaurants with excellent menus.Type of place you don't want to come home from. October 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jessiejames Mrs Diane Beahan This is my second visit to Royal Meridien and I can't wait to go again. The food is excellent, the staff are very helpful. It is situated in a good spot not far from all local attractions. We spent our days relaxing by the pools and enjoyed lunch everyday at the hotel bars, no need to leave the hotel as all the eating facilities are excellent. I would definitely recommend this hotel to all age groups. October 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tarries2014 Favourite Hotel ever My wife and I have recently returned to UK after our 7th visit to this excellent hotel ; this hotel and its staff are to be highly recommended for service, comfort,food,value for money,( the list is endless !) Just when you think things couldn't get better, they do ! The hotel and grounds have been kept immaculately since our first visit in 2001 and are a credit to Pam Wilby and her staff Keep up the good work- Starwood Hotels should be very proud of you all October 10, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MCMills Staying on points The hotel is great and all the staff is very accommodating. If you happen to be using Starwood points to stay, and are a gold member, they say they upgrade you to the new section, the only problem is they gave us the worst room in the building. It was on the 1st floor right above the air conditioning exhaust which is very loud and makes it tough to sleep. Ask for a room and don't accept room 601. October 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jacques77 Amazing experience From the minute I arrived with my family till the time we departed.....we were treated superbly..the staff was great....service was excellent.....it was our first stay but definitely not our last.As a lifetime platinum member I will rate this as one of the best hotels we have had the honor of staying in.....Thank you to everyone.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Nikita11 Good hotel Very helpful and friendly personal October 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by EileenandAlex8 Brilliant, as always Our third stay at Le Royal Meridien, and as always we were treated royally. Wonderful staff - from arriving in taxi, to super efficient reception (Ganesh in particular helped us a lot), great restaurant staff - the girls in particular were wonderfully welcoming - we used the Brasserie mostly for both breakfast and dinner and the food was superb. The beach guys who looked after our towels and beach chairs and brought us cold cloths and ice in buckets - particularly Dany, Rajesh and all the other guys. I have urged all our friends to come here and experience the great times we have had. I cannot speak too highly of Le Royal Meridien. We are looking forward to returning next year Alex and Eileen Ward October 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MandM50 2nd stay and better than 1st What can we say, our second visit in four months and the hotel continues to exceed our expectations. From Zee who managed our booking expertly, to the pool guys, the restaurant teams and a big thanks to Ahmit who rectified a small issue in our room when we arrived quickly and never lost his smile. If you are looking for rest, relaxation and pampering then this is perfect for you. We are looking forward to returning next year. October 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Redparaman Excellent hotel. Great Hotel. Quality rooms and en suites. Great SPA. Breakfast was buffet hot and cold with good selection for all dietary requirements. Good outdoor space around pools and other restaurants. Room service was prompt and the food well priced. October 1, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by jfg2003 Not a great stay I am almost lifetime platinum with Starwood, and I was underwhelmed by this property. It is older and tatty which is fine but not for the price that I paid. I had a room booked at a much higher end non-Starwood property and decided to stay here instead which I regret. • More of a vacation property; not a great business hotel. DJ at the property's club played late into the night two evenings making sleep difficult. • Invoice incorrect upon checkout; still waiting for a corrected version days later. September 30, 2014

Strong says he and his team are very grateful to be participating. Strong says this game is the first game to prepare for next season. He called it a measuring stick for his program. During the long layoff, going five weeks without playing a game, Strong says it will all be about technique and fundamentals tomorrow night. There are some players that have been battling sickness that Strong called "a little bug."

From Our Editors
Beginning in Columbus and now painting the town red in various cities throughout the county, Colors & Bottles scratches the creative itch of the public with its themed art classes that leave no blank canvas unvarnished. The mobile painting service, which The Ellen DeGeneres Show tagged as a "hip, new, and fresh" activity, stages its events at local bars, wineries, restaurants, and art galleries, helping boost neighborhood economies while creating a hard-to-follow trail for begrudging pottery wheels. During three-hour classes, an artist plucked from the local art community leads students through the creation of a themed painting, such as a city skyline or something more abstract. For an extra splash of inspiration, some venues allow students to bring their own drinks, while others have refreshments available to purchase.

After Senaca Lapsley's sentencing hearing Thursday morning, 26-year-old Zach Huddleston went back to the hospital for a likely admission and more tests.
It's been like that for the former Fort Wayne man ever since Lapsley casually pulled a pistol and fired off about seven rounds into a crowded bar early Christmas morning.
Two of those bullets found Huddleston, who happened to be standing in the wrong place on the wrong side of the glass when Lapsley pointed his gun.
One tore through his throat, leaving a small scar on one side of his neck and another up on the right side of his chin.
The other, though, did far more damage, cutting a path through his stomach, through his bladder and into the femoral artery in his leg causing damage that is still not healed.
And it might never.
For now, Huddleston is trying to make the best of it, a left leg swollen more than two times the size of his right, riddled with blood clots and presenting a constant and painful reminder of what can happen in an instant.
Lapsley received a 78-year prison sentence Thursday, a month after a jury convicted him of two counts of aggravated battery, three counts of criminal recklessness and found him to be a habitual offender.
One of three people who came into the bar early Christmas morning, Lapsley was involved in a fight between a woman, her ex-husband and her boyfriend. When the three were kicked out of the bar, Lapsley turned around and began firing a gun into the tavern, authorities said.
And the hulking Lapsley seemed just as nonchalant and unconcerned about the practical end to his life as he was Christmas morning walking down the sidewalk under the video camera outside the Sports & Spirits bar, 1723 E. Wayne St.
As that video recording played for the jury, members of the panel seemed obviously shocked at the shooter's callous behavior.
During his hearing Thursday, Lapsley snorted at the judge, rolled his eyes, grinned and offered nothing but a shake of the head and a "nope" when asked whether he wanted to say anything to Huddleston and Anna Roque, who lost the end of her left pinky finger to one of the bullets.
The pair didn't have anything to say to Lapsley either, but were less than impressed with his lack of remorse.
"It is sad," Roque said after the hearing.
Huddleston now focuses on trying to heal, not just his body but his mind, relying on family and friends to help get him through, friends like Greg Waikel, who helped change his bandages when he came home from the hospital.
But it is hard. Gone are the lengthy workweeks Huddleston put in as a welder. Now he's lucky if he can get through a workday at the marina where he now works. He frequently relieves the swelling and pain in his legs by jumping into the dark, cold lake water.
At night, it's hard to sleep unless he's been drinking.
"The dreams suck," he said. "I get shot all the time. If I go to bed sober, or watch something (on television) it's bad."
He weaned himself off all the pain medication and the anti-anxiety drugs prescribed for him over the last few months.
"I didn't want to be a zombie," he said.
On Thursday, he was to go back to the hospital for an ultrasound and dye studies of both his legs to check on the status of the blood clots. He was hoping to be admitted so he'd have a day or two off his feet.
Another stay in the hospital means more medical bills. His mother has a stack of bills several inches high and they stopped totaling up how much he owes at about $1 million.
The state's crime victim relief fund paid all of $15,000, and Huddleston's insurance kicked him off his plan.
He said it's been harder, though, for his friends and family since the gunshots rang out that morning. While he has had to deal with the physical pain, watching them feel helpless at his bedside has been harder.
"I didn't really have to deal with it," he said. "All these people had to deal with it. I was in half a coma."
He is grateful too for the work of the prosecutors who convinced the jury it was Lapsley on the video. And he was thankful for Allen Superior Court Judge Frances Gull, who used words like "egregious," "extraordinary" and "horrific" to describe the events of early Christmas morning.
"It's crazy how one person's actions can change a person's life so (expletive deleted) fast," Huddleston said before he headed out of the Courthouse and off to the hospital.

Sinkane - 'Mean Love'
Former Yeasayer and Caribou collaborator refuses to be pigeonholed on boundary-exploring fourth albumMore on Various Artists
8 / 10 Sudanese born Ahmed Gallab's fourth album as Sinkane plucks from several continents and decades, emerging as a triumphant mix of vintage soul perfection and modern experimentation. On 'New Name', African rhythms are a bedrock for cascading synths, punchy brass and soft vocals. The title track is a '60s croon, bittersweet and heavy with nostalgia. 'Galley Boys' takes that same sound and threads it with country guitar and electronic interference. The influence of Gallab's past excursions with Caribou and Yeasayer can be detected in his refusal to be entrenched in genre. Along with his collaborators (including David Byrne and Damon Albarn), he has neatly stitched a tapestry of musical cultures into a cohesive, convincing whole.

Renowned musicians to feature in Jazz Up Series finale
The finale of this year's Jazz Up Series takes place on December 17 (Wednesday) at 8pm at the Auditorium of the Kwai Tsing Theatre. It brings together Japan's Tamaya Honda on drum, Australia's Steve Hunter on electric bass, Sweden's Ulf Wakenius on guitar and Hong Kong's own Ted Lo on piano.
The concert is presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department.
A self-taught drummer, Tamaya Honda made his debut at the age of 12 and has toured with many jazz musicians in Japan since 1993. He formed Tamaya Honda - Planet X in 1997. The band has performed in numerous jazz clubs and jazz festivals in Japan.
Since forming his first electric jazz oriented group in 1978 with drummer Tony Buck, Steve Hunter has performed all around the globe. Held in high respect as one of the world's foremost electric bass virtuosos, Steve is an award-winning composer with over 70 compositions released. In addition to performing, he is also devoted to education and has conducted many master classes and workshops.
Ulf Wakenius began playing guitar at the age of 11. By 17, he was already an established jazz musician playing with different Swedish groups. From the late 1980s until now, he has been playing with the Danish bass giant, Niels-Henning Orstedt-Pedersen. In the beginning of the 1990s, Wakenius started to work in different projects together with American and European top musicians.
Ted Lo graduated from the Berklee College of Music in Boston in 1976, with a degree in Arranging and Composition. He moved to New York City in 1979 where he started a career as a freelance jazz pianist. His first major jazz gig was with the group, Herbie Mann and Family of Mann. Since then he has worked and recorded with numerous renowned artists. Lo continues to define himself as a diversified musician, composer and producer in all areas of Hong Kong's music industry.

Gear Review
Not recommended for narrow feet
I had to return these shoes unfortunately. They felt good initially, but after 200 miles of hiking, I felt that my foot slid around too much... and I actually tried 2 different sizes. The forefoot is particularly wide, so I don't recommend for anyone with narrow feet. I had a little nerve entrapment of my large toe (going numb), after 130 miles hiking in the Sierras. Fortunately, backcountry.com had an amazing return policy and still gave me my $$ back. Thanks backcountry!
Blake Carley
The best in the biz! Love that return policy.

An MRI revealed Saturday that Dallas Cowboys rookie cornerback Morris Claiborne has a sprained MCL in his left knee. USA Today reported that the first-round pick could miss up to a week. Claiborne was pulled from practice Friday and could only watch the team's walkthrough practice in Oxnard, Calif., on Saturday. "I can't control this, so I'm not going to beat myself up over it," he said. "All I can do is go in there and do what I need to do with rehab." Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said Claiborne initially injured the knee on Wednesday and practiced through it. He received treatment on Thursday and practiced Friday afternoon before the knee flared up. Claiborne was the sixth overall pick after a standout career at LSU. He also missed minicamp because of wrist surgery in the spring but attended defensive meetings. Defensive coordinator Rob Ryan said Claiborne has picked up the Dallas defense quickly, despite being slowed by the injuries.

moreThe Silence Calling is a fascinating and often moving account of the work and life of Australians in Antarctica. It traces the development of the Australian National Antarctic Research Expedition (ANARE) from the first day the Australian flag was raised on Australia's remote Southern Ocean outpost of Heard Island on Boxing Bay 1947 up to the present day.
Thousands of men and women from all over Australia and from many backgrounds have lived, worked and, indeed, played in that dangerous, hostile and overwhelmingly beautiful environment to become part of Australia's Antarctic legend. However, The Silence Calling is not just about personal endeavour and hardship; it is also about exploration, discovery and Australia's significant contribution to international scientific research.less

This practical, personal, and positive plan can impact marriagesand ground the skyrocketing divorce rateas no other book has.

Marine Corps vet is hero in apartment fire
No one hurt; 14 families displaced
CORPUS CHRISTI - A Marine Corps veteran broke down his neighbors' door about 3:45 a.m. Friday, helping two brothers and a pregnant woman escape as fire swept through their exterior stairwell.
Raul Esparza, 22, was heralded as a hero for his actions at Candlewood Apartments.
Esparza's neighbors are one of four families whose Airline Road apartments were destroyed by fire. Twelve other units had smoke or water damage, but residents were able to return to two of them, fire officials said.
Fourteen families, which include two small children, were displaced.
All are being helped by the American Red Cross.
No one was seriously hurt, but one firefighter was taken to Bay Area Medical Center with symptoms of heat exhaustion.
Esparza said he first heard crackling and saw bushes in front of his apartment burning.
"By the time I got to my neighbors' apartment, the whole stairway was in flames," he said. "I pounded on the door, then kicked it in, there wasn't time to wait."
Joseph Garza, 17, was awakened by the pounding.
"I was getting ready to defend myself when the door came smashing in," said Garza, a cart attendant at a local golf course.
He, his brother, Jonathan Garza, 19, and the brother's fiancée, Lisa Espinoza, 21, who is pregnant, were able to get themselves and their two dogs out before fire consumed their apartment.
Their cat, Mama Kitty, died in the fire.
"I never believed there was a God until tonight," Joseph Garza said. "If it wasn't for Raul, we'd have lost a lot of people."
Esparza is the hero, said Carol Sanchez, 43, the men's mother, as she sobbed while holding onto Espinoza. "He saved my unborn grandchild."
A woman upstairs from the Garzas heard the ruckus and got out safely too, Sanchez added.
Adjacent neighbor Ernest Lenon, 51, heard yelling and screaming, he said.
"It woke me up thinking someone was fighting," said the waste collection business supervisor. "When I looked through my peephole, I could see burning embers."
He grabbed his wallet and keys, he said, and as he opened the door, flames lurched from the ceiling into his apartment. Lenon hit his right eye socket on the door frame as he ducked from the flames, leaving a gash. But he closed his door and helped alert other residents, he said.
"Firefighters said that closing my door saved my apartment from being destroyed," Lenon said.
Traffic was blocked in the 2000 block of Airline as firefighters battled the blaze. It was controlled by 4:36 a.m., a police dispatcher said.
The 14 displaced families will get two days lodging from the American Red Cross, food coupons, clothes and blankets, and the two children were given Teddy bears, said Aaron Guevara, spokesman for the American Red Cross.
Other units will be prepared for each of the displaced families, said Carrie Green, Candlewood manager.
Fire investigator Pete Salazar said the fire started between a fence and bushes outside. But the exact cause has not yet been determined. He estimates damage between $150,000 and $200,000.
