I liked that the hotel was pet friendly and provided treats for the dogs at the front desk.
I did not like having to change rooms 3 times for two nights. There was an awful smell then a leak in one of our rooms. The shower was not clean in the last room we stayed in.

The pool and courtyard was fabulous! Location was convenient. Room service, breakfast, and parking was terrible.
We stayed 2 nights and our room was never made up. We complained and they claimed they came by on the afternoon of our 1st day but they did not. We were in the room and would have heard them. Breakfast was less than satisfactory especially for 2.5 stars.

They charged an unauthorized charge to my account on top of the required $50 room deposit. I called & spoke to the manager who said he did not have any idea why I was charged an additional $77.97 & was not eager to help me resolve the issue.

This was a gift for a 6 month old baby girl and she loved it! The hat fit perfectly with a little room to grow and the colors were exactly the same as the photo on the site. It was also soft so she kept it on for hours!

The Tutu looks just like the picture. It is very well made. I love that the waist band is elastic and has a plastic hook feature. Extremely happy with the purchase! My only complaint is that the bottom of the ribbon has a slight frey from where they cut it. It could probably be fixed but cutting it again but the ribbon is so pretty and the problem is so small that I don't want to accidentally make the problem worse. Plus, you wouldn't be able to see it in pictures anyway. I highly this product!

This is exactly what I was looking for and I was pleased with the quality. Not flimsy and the kind of softness expected to clothe delicate baby skin in.

Well, it's halfway through 2016, and not much has changed since the beginning of the year. Despite the terrorism acts in Orlando, FL and Turkey, and the Brexit referendum, little has happened to affect the travel industry. Overall, things might have slowed a bit, but a majority of the fundamentals are holding steady, including occupancy, ADR and RevPAR. I've been asked why this cycle has lasted longer than those preceding it. As far as I am concerned, it's due to a single phrase: Never Again.

This movie has style!,
This review is from: Following (DVD)
I, as probably many other people, got this movie after I watched "Memento", the second movie by the same director, Christopher Nolan, which I liked very much. I liked his first one too, although probably the comparison with his follow up Hollywood production makes 'Following' even more interesting. It is low budget independent movie in noir style that is shot in black and white. The style of the movie reminds me old french crime movies although it adds the twists so familiar to us from 'Memento': the order of the movie doesn't follow the real order so you see different pieces in different times trying to recreate what really happened. The plot itself, although unpredictable (the ending is totally surprising) not really convincing and logical. But it's ok since, in my opinion, the main quality of this movie is its style. The acting is adequate. All in all although not groundbreaking it is interesting especially as prequel to 'Following'.

At the risk of getting hit by a barrage of gender quacks, I would still say that honestly, the soft side of leaders are a winning quality. The soft side of humanity on the outside with a steely resolve and determination on the inside is a plus point for a leader. Compassionate and confident on the outside with a perseverance and single mindedness on the inside is for me the right mix for a leader. We all are leaders at some point in our lives, and we must believe it. You could be participating in a school function where ten pairs of eyes are on you, or you could be at an airport with a delayed flight or be the spokesperson for a company. You could be an entrepreneur with your business, in charge of five tailors or a department with 50 people under you. Or a teacher in a class of more than 50 children! The micro is a blueprint of the macro, like the drop of water has the same properties as the ocean. The moment you take the initiative and lead, others will look up at you. That is the time to reflect. So why does everyone want to be a leader? Because it seems to have a 'glamorous' success quotient and a public perception attached to it. But in reality, it needs hard work and sterling qualities to be a leader.
Think of school, where children are asked, "who wants to be the class monitor today?" And 50 hands shoot up, like stars! They all want to be in control. Some may be untidy monitors, while some are so rowdy themselves that they create mayhem. Some are strict who are not listened to, while some are so overwhelmed that they falter. Some are just incapable and the same could happen in an office. Some department heads get there due to seniority and there is nothing to do with merit. Or politicians. Or corporate heads. Some leaders are so short sighted that they only want to be in the 'power seat' to be 'seen'. They walk with a self-important air, a squeaky attitude that wills you to look at them. But there is little action that speaks for itself. Or you have the reckless strutting head who has an air about him and cuts across conversations always having their say. They never encourage a conversation, but merely a monologue. When an action rather than word speaks of the person's confidence, it is impactful and real.
For example, you could have a director of a play who shouts and directs with a raised voice. Or you could see him act out the scene himself with what he wants done, thus, showing the way. Engaging and involving people are the key to leadership. We live in this world and its people who we live with, who we work with, who teach us compassion, who teach us patience, who teach us forgiveness, and who teach us love. People also teach us how to control rage and convert it into tolerance and patience. I never realised the value of that irritating person who always bugged me by never listening. Actually the universe put him there to teach me patience, not vice versa. It took me a long time to realise this and when I did, he had vanished from site.
I think as a leader you have to be honest with yourself and see how a 100 people take one step forward rather than one person takes 100 steps forward.

Explorer of the Seas Cruise Review by sophnest: Fun time for all!!!
Overall Member Rating
Fun time for all!!!
Destination: Bermuda
Embarkation: Other
Our six night cruise to Bermuda was just amazing! Cape Liberty Port went pretty smoothly- although not as pretty as Miami's port. Our promenade stateroom overlooked the promenade which was perfect to have something to look out at when not out and about- which was not often! The ship itself is gorgeous and huge- never did learn what was where even after 6 days! The activities for days at sea were nonstop and we had to carefully plan time to relax! The food in the main dining room was amazing each night and the Windjammer for breakfast had anything you would desire and more!
Kings wharf was great for shopping and exploring- and a cute beach with all you can ask for in a compact area!
The ferry to Hamilton was efficient and clean- and a beautiful ride if you go on the upper level to see the shoreline! Hamilton itself is a nice town- shops mostly high end- although we did find some great souvenir stores too! The buses can be found at the bus depot nearby to go anywhere More on the island- and a 2 day pass did the job for us with unlimited ferry or bus rides. (Hold on tight as you ride the pink buses- the streets are extremely narrow and the drivers go fast!- Hence the t-shirt "I survived a Bermuda bus ride"
St George is a cute and quaint town - pretty quick to cover all the highlights there, and then off to the Gibb lighthouse which was quite a walk up- and then a magnificent view of all of Bermuda!
The shows were great - don't miss the "Love and Marriage" game show- hysterical! And the Quest game is new and improved and such fun!! The cruise director Leigh is funny and fabulous- making everything more fun and hysterical!
Such a great trip- I would go again in a heartbeat!! Less

Are you flying into Auckland, or can you fly directly to Christchurch? The North Island, especially from Auckland north, gets just too hot and humid in summer. With a shorter trip I will usually suggest that if you have an early morning Auckland arrival, that you just continue on a domestic flight that same day to the South Island. The Abel Tasman and Fiordland areas are hot spots for kayaking (I am not a kayaker myself). For wineries you'll be spoiled, but I think between Kaikoura area and Queenstown area there is a good combination of hiking and wine. The Routeburn is a great track you can do on your own, if you do want to independently hike the Milford Track you need to book ahead.
I am a bit bored by the scenery around Blenheim, but if you visit Abel Tasman and are driving it's convenient for the wine enthusiast. It's dead flat so maybe biking is an option.
If you had three weeks I'd suggest that you drive from Auckland with a stop for the Tongariro crossing, and then there are some good winery areas closer to Wellington. I enjoyed Martinborough because you can stumble along between wineries without worrying about drunk driving. I stayed at Oak House (www.burings.co.nz) which is worthwhile if not just to meet Chris and sample his own wines with dinner.
Or just plan to return!

Two weeks is sufficient to do the standard tourist loop, which looks something like this:
Arrive Christchurch-drive down the West Coast via Arthur's Pass-Franz/Fox Glacier, Wanaka, Te Anau, Milford Sound, Queenstown, return to Christchurch via Mt Cook and Lake Tekapo.
Lots of hiking along that route, plenty of wineries between Wanaka and Queenstown (Cromwell is a good spot), kayaking opportunities in Te Anau/Milford Sound.
As for how much time to allow...if you're arriving from an overnight flight into Christchurch, I'd suggest not driving more than two hours your first day, or staying the first night in/around Christchurch.
From there, I'd suggest two nights at the glaciers, which will give you a full day for a helihike, guided glacier hike, or just some freedom hiking. Then perhaps two nights in Wanaka - lots of wonderful hikes there in Mt Aspiring Nat'l Park, but it takes a good hour to access the best ones. Then on to Te Anau/Milford, again, I'd suggest at least two nights in Te Anau, before moving on to Queenstown for a few nights. If QT is too touristy for you, but you'd like to be close, Arrowtown is a good alternative. From there, you can work your way back up to Christchurch, stopping for a couple of nights at Mt Cook, before returning to Christchurch.
FYI - NZ school holidays end between Jan 30 and Feb 7 next year. School holidays can be quite busy, so you'll want to book your accommodation ahead of time if you'll be in NZ while the kiddos are loose.

We spent 3 weeks in the South Island of NZ 6 years ago. One of those weeks was spent doing the Milford Track, which was a real experience, but I'll let you know our favorites.
Many will cry foul, but we skipped the west coast altogether, partly on the advice of some people we met who live there. Apparently, it is very rainy. Obviously, if you want to do the glaciers, you'll need to go.
We spent a few days in Nelson, which we loved absolutely. It is easy from there to take day trips to the wineries and to go to Abel Tasman for kayaking.
Another thing that I cannot reccomend highly enough is swimming with the dolphins in Kaikoura. We went with Dolphin Encounter--this is not swimming with tame dolphins in an enclosed space. They take you out in the ocean and follow the pods and drop you in the middle. It is awe inspiring.
Whatever you do, I'm betting you will fall in love with the country. When we cam back we immediately looked into immigration! We can dream, can't we?

The breakfast was amazing, the room was excellent and the staff was very friendly. The patio was very nice.
I would assume that since I was traveling with my service dog, I got stuck in the handicap room, which was right off the patio and service desk. The lobby and patio was noisy all night. The tile of the lobby floor made all noise echo, making it worse.

The location and the breakfast. The hotel looks good from outside as well, we came at 11:30 and got the room key right away
We were 8 and we booked 3 rooms (2 queen bed each). The hotel charged us $10 for each person extra. Some of the room was not clean enough.

Ok, I should start off by saying the disappointment is partially my fault for not doing more research and reading before purchasing the VUE... guess I was too impressed by the price! My main disappointment is that there are no refillable cups available for the VUE which would allow me to use my own type of coffee. I am originally a New Orleans girl and absolutely love my Coffee & Chickory. I finally have a Keurig after hearing so many brag about them, but have kept my former coffee brewer handy. I just don't know how long I can go without my coffee & chickory, which I have been drinking for about 39 years. I received a variety pack of coffee with this machine and also ordered several different types of the VUE coffee pods from Keurig.com, unfortunately I have found that they all seem to have an instant coffee taste. If only they would make a refillable cup for the VUE as they have for the K-CUP machine, it would be perfect in my opinion! If not, guess I'll just have to order the cocoa and sweet tea pods and let the kids use the Keurig.
I was underwhelmed with this Keurig system at first, but it's definitely grown on me. I had the impression that the Vue was an upgrade from the standard Keurig, but I think it was equivalent. I got this Keurig Vue at a $50 or $60 discount so it was a great value. It does brew well. You get the option of coffee, tea, cocoa and café style drinks. I've used the coffee, tea, cocoa and brew over ice options and I'm pleased.
I think the appearance is bulky, but all keurigs are.You DEFINITELY want to use filtered water to get good tasting coffee. Vue cups are hard to find, but the solofil 3 in 1 works super well and you can use regular K cups with it. However, the k-cup can fall out a little and you'll have to be careful that it does not get stuck when you open it.
I love the convenience of making anything I want rather quickly. I am also looking forward to hosting with it.
I love the Italian Roast and French Roast. The Vue brews a very smooth delicious cup of coffee if I brew it for an eight ounce cup/strong, better than any Mr. Coffee could brew. Unfortunately, the programmability of different size cups is misleading. I tried brewing 10 ounces/strong but it was much weaker. The travel mug Vue pakcs are great for 14 oz, not 16 oz. Hopefully, Keurig will remedy the problem with vue packs for each of the programmable sizes. The hot cocoa was a disappointment but that's not what I bought it for. I would like to be able to brew a cappuccino, unfortunately the Vue Pack Cafe Beverages that are currently available have received low ratings, so I won't waste my money. Keurig's answer to cafe beverages is another unit, the Keurig Rivo. I don't think consumers should have to invest in another single serve system. It is great to get a fresh cup of coffee within minutes, it just takes a little trial and error to find the right program that suits your taste.
Kurig needs to go back to the drawing board on this one! JUNK, JUNK, JUNK! Received a Vue for Christmas. Managed to brew six cups of coffee and then the pump wouldn't work and the brewer would "go back to the beginning". After going thru all the trouble shooting in the directions, I Called Kurig and had a replacement sent, which I received 2 days later (prompt service!) However, I requested to exchange the Vue for their original K-Cup brewer (same price as the Vue) and Customer Service said they didn't have the authority to make the exchange and that they would have Corporate call. Never received Corporate's call. After receiving my replacement Vue brewer, the pump stopped working after another 6-7 cups. I ended up taking the Vue back to the retail store where it was purchased and made the exchange (along with the carousel). No questions, no hassel (and I didn't even have the box for the carousel!) As for the original K-cup brewer. . . stick to what you do best and "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
I should have read the reviews before I purchased. There is nothing wrong with this machine, except that it only takes Vue cups, not K cups. Vue cups are not available any where I have looked,evidently they have to be bought online. I ordered an adapter from Amazon, the only place I could find one, but I have not had a chance to try that yet. Much simpler to just get a regular K-cup machine and have the vast assortment of K-cup coffee available at any store.
This was a gift as I am a big coffee drinker and love GREAT COFFEE! This machine makes great coffee. But what good is a machine that takes specific VUE cups that aren't available ANYWHERE!!! So Keurig told me I can order them online or get them at Bed Bath and Beyond (which is a few hours from me). So if I want VUE cups I have to order them!!! I don't like this idea!!! So if you MUST get this machine then you MUST also pay an additional $20 to order the refillable Solofil cup for the vue. I can buy regular coffee and kcups and just fill my refillable. Takes convenience out but the coffee is still good.
I had already ordered this before I sadly realized it didn't use K-Cups (my own fault...I could've just read where it says "DOES NOT WORK WITH K-CUPS") I was ready to return it before we even received it, but my husband did some research and told me that it actually has an option to make frothy lattes, so I gave it a shot and we absolutely love it. It brews in under a minute (the 2 step lattes take a bit longer but are totally worth it!) The user manual even suggests peeling the foil and filter out of a used cup and using it to heat water for oatmeal or soups! Haven't tried that yet...but it got me thinking...you could just let it heat the water to brew your favorite tea, so I won't be trying the Tea Vue Cups! I ordered the two-pack of Coffee vue cups from Walmart and was very pleased with the price. Our local store is small, and they had virtually no selection of vue cups. I happily discovered that a competitor's store (the one with the red and white circles) has a much wider selection of cups! TIP: Both stores keep the Vue cups with the Coffeemakers and NOT in the coffee aisle. Another tip...You CAN modify an empty TRAVEL size Vue Cup to hold a K-Cup. I tried it with a hot chocolate K-Cup and it worked... but I did have a lot of dripping and spewing to wipe up afterwards. I would be afraid to use a coffee K-Cup because I think I would have gotten coffee grounds all down in my machine. There is a video on Youtube of "how to use k-cups in the new keurig vue" But I've found, unless you already have the K-Cups, the Vue cups aren't any more expensive and won't risk damaging your investment.
I didn't know until it arrived that this version doesn't use the usual K cups-you have to buy a specific kind of cups.
As soon as I figured out that I had to buy special K-Cups I returned the Keurig! That is ridiculous! Not only that but you can only get them at specialty store or at Keurig.com! That was my main complaint and a valid one I thought!
I used this system approx 3 to 4 times and then went power on the unit by pushing the on/off button. The unit began steam uncontrollably without any warning. It got so hot that the unit seamed to overheat the digital control panel causing it, making the unit inoperable to use. After calling customer service the first of several times, they sent me another unit at no charge. After just a couple uses of the new unit, it too began to steam uncontrollably after just turning the unit on until the same thing happen. Now after calling the customer service department again they wanted to send out another unit at no charge. Unfortunately I have become dissatisfied with their product and wanted a refund. I was told that there corporate office would contact me within 24 to 48 hours. This came and went three times. At this point after two weeks of phone games I am still waiting. There customer service is very poor from their upper management level.
I don't consider myself extremely environmentally conscious, but I did not really like the un-recyclable design of K-cup pods. The V-pods address that. The use your own grinds options seemed like they defeated the purpose of simplicity. I've been using a coffee maker with built in grind hopper and non-heated insulated steel carafe. It makes great coffee but is a lot of work I don't feel like going through to make a cup a joe on the weekends which is the only time I'm home to make coffee. I've used K-cup makers and though great I like the new Vue maker better. The design is great and build quality is high. The touch panel controls are not perfect but work well and lead to my favorite part about the new system which is increased flexibility with more options for creating the perfect cup. More cup sizes to choose from to include travel mugs and brew strength selection are exactly what I would have requested if Keurig had asked me. I highly recommend the Vue and look forward to making many cups of delicious coffee and tea in my ownership of my new Vue.
I greatly regret buying this thing.
I didn't know what I was doing when I decided I wanted a Keurig for a gift. BIG MISTAKE buying the Vue! You really need a k-cup machine instead. Fool that I am, I couldn't imagine that there would be a difference. THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE between Vue and K-Cup, the former being nearly impossible to find the coffee cups for.
I had thought that I could get a reusable filter for this machine but none such exists. It was the major reason why I wanted to get it- you could use your own coffee when you want to save on money! WRONG.
I really really hate this machine. I can't believe I am stuck with it now. The cups are nice treats but unrealistic for daily use. I cannot use it everyday.
I love how u can make cafe lattes, and all the different coffee options they have! Also how u can choose how strong you want ur coffee!! The price was excellent and I received it a day after I order! Worth it every penny!! Love it
I have had a K-cup brewer for three years and love it. I finally decided to cash in some of my rewards points from all of the K-cups I have purchased from Keurig and purchase the Vue. I have to say I love it! I really like that you can select the "stronger" setting and the cup size in 2 oz. increments. I was using two K-cups per cup to get the right strength in a larger mug of coffee. With the Vue, I can use an extra-bold, such as Newman's Own, select stronger, then select 12 oz. and I can get a great cup of coffee. In the end, the Vue packs are actually cheaper for my use than the K-cups because I only have to use one per cup, instead of two. I always purchase my coffee through Keurig because I have found they have the best selection, and with their sales, they have the best prices. I just hope that it will last as long as my other Keurig. But, it if does break, I have to say I will get another.
Never owned a Keurig, but learned a lot about them over the 2 weeks it took to select the Vue V500. Chose it because of these options: 16 oz setting, higher temp settings, pulsed water, and the strong option setting. Delivered on 7/18/14. Used for 3 weeks when, with no warning, it decided it only wanted to put out just a small amount of water regardless what ounce it was set on. 3 weeks old! I wasn't about to deal with customer service trying to figure out what was wrong with it. Just got back from returning it. Purchased the Keurig K75 Platinum at another store. Lets see how it goes! I can already say I miss the options I wanted to begin with.
I have really liked this machine overall, there have been zero brewing issues unlike I had with the previous k-cup brewer. The same coffee in the vue cups taste much better as well, compared to the k-cup versions. My biggest gripes are with the reservoir and the height of the machine. It seems like I am constantly filling the machine with water. The design of the unit really takes away from the reservoir capacity. It would be nice to either make the reservoir wider or offer a larger version to buy separately. The nice thing about the vue brewer is that it offers more bang for the buck with both the standard size cups and mug sized cups but most of my mugs do not fit under the brewer. After dealing with hanging the unit half off the counter or sitting it on something so I could fit the mugs under it I finally made a real riser block to put under the machine but this should have been thought of design wise especially since the machine and cups were meant to brew into mugs. Again I am very pleased over all and since making a riser block it's just the reservoir capacity that is a bit underwhelming. Bob
My kids bought me the Keurig V500 for Christmas. They had put a lot of research into the different options and ultimately opted for the V500 because of its versatility – the retail salesperson sold them on the idea that not only will the V500 brew Vue pods – which we all know are somewhat limited in variety and hard to find – but, with the right after-market adapter, it will also brew K-pods and regular ground coffee. So they set me up with the V500, the third-party adapter, and a carousel. I am now on my third machine. The pumps keep going bad, after ~2-3 weeks each at ~4-8 cups per day. After the first one stopped working Kuerig sent me a replacement immediately. After the second one went bad, the customer service rep informed me that brewing anything other than Vue pods is a REALLY bad idea – that brewing regular coffee with the third-party adapters is breaking their machines right and left, and that brewing K-pods in adapters is even worse! So much for versatility. I said perhaps they should get that word out... They went ahead and sent me a third machine, but I haven't even taken it out of the box.
We purchased our 1st Keurig for my wife's birthday. We decided on the Vue and are so glad we did. Our travel mugs fit perfect and the reservoir allows several mugs to be made before refilling. We enjoy the touch screen which makes switching to the cafe or iced beverage options as well as the correct mug size easy. My wife, who is a one mug drinker, likes the fact she's not waisting coffee grounds & water for her one & only morning coffee mug. I like the fact I always have a fresh brewed taste rather its my 1st mug or my 5th. Yea, I'm not a one mug drinker :-) We are done with old style coffee makers. No more burned coffee smell. No more guesstimating when filling the filter with grounds. One last thing about the Vue; we love the programmable time options. This feature allows us to save energy and yet automatically turn the machine on & off. We love our Keurig Vue!
My coffee pot was beginning to show signs it was on the blink and the kids told me I would love one of these. I finally bought the V500 and I love it. I bought the reusable cup also so I can use my own coffee if I want to as some of the pre packaged for the machine are a bit expensive. Wish I had bought this sooner. Great fresh coffee, tea, cocoa, cider, and so much more!
Bought it at this amazing price for a friend wedding gift and she loved it.

THE GOVERNMENT is likely to undershoot its target for reducing the budget deficit by £7bn this financial year, according to PwC which has urged ministers to focus on cutting business regulations and reform taxes in the Budget in an effort to boost growth.
Andrew Sentance, senior economic adviser to the Big Four firm and a former member of the Bank of England monetary policy committee, said: "Supply-side reforms need to take over from the emphasis on demand stimulus we have seen since the financial crisis.
"Supply-side policies supported growth in the UK in the 1980s and the 1990s, and we need a stronger focus on them now. That means simplifying and streamlining regulation so we have a good business climate here in the UK – for small companies and new start-ups as well as large multinationals."
Changes to the corporate tax system should be accompanied by reforms to personal taxes, expenditure taxes and environmental taxation, PwC also said.
PwC predicted that the UK economy would grow by 0.6% and 1.8% in 2012 and 2013 respectively – compared to estimates of 0.7% and 2.1% by the independent Office for Budget Responsibility.
The firm also predicted that consumer spending will grow by around 0.7% in 2012 and 1.3% in 2013 as inflation falls, easing the squeeze on real household incomes that led to a fall in real consumer spending in 2011.
The main source of economic growth in 2012 will be exports, while the London Olympic Games should also provide a temporary economic boost in the third quarter of this year, PwC said.
Business investment may remain "subdued" in 2012 but should pick up in 2013 as long as economic uncertainty in the Eurozone eases, PwC added.

- New home for hippos of Birsa zoo
The hippos of Birsa Zoological Park Ranchi will have a marshy new den in 2016. The park administration, which is eyeing an expansion in the 2016-17 fiscal year, is charting a second complex on the outskirts of Ranchi to accommodate and breed hippopotamuses this year.

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.3 /5 from 286 reviews
The hotel was nice, the employees were very accommodating, but I was extremely disappointed in what they call a "kitchen" in each suite. The reason we stayed here was specifically so that we could cook for our family without needing to go out for every meal- as we have in other similar hotels. The stove was two burners- I guess that's fine, but there was no oven- only a microwave. If you're making macaroni and cheese, I suppose that's sufficient, but it really was not what I was expecting. Furthermore, there were no knives for cooking, no cooking tools (can opener, peeler, strainer) and no mixing or serving bowls. They did provide 2 pots, and tableware for 4 (except the spoons- there were only 2), but you really couldn't call this a kitchen. It really wasn't more than a two-trivet hotplate and a microwave. That was very disappointing, and we unfortunately had to spend a lot of money eating at restaurants that we hadn't anticipated.
Vacation to see Wadhington DC sights. & shoping. Great location with convenience of kitchen, breakfast, very friendly,courteous and helpful employees. Definitely recommend this location for sight seeing by foot.
The hotel was clean and convenient. The bathroom had a couple if cracks in the wall no vent in the ceiling. Our view was if the garbage. We kept the curtains closed the entire time. The staff didn't clean our room until 4:30 pm on Saturday. We had to ask for towels and toilet paper. Considering the money we spent per night it wasn't worth it. We have stayed at several different hotels/suites in DC. We won't go back to this one
We got a great deal on this room through Hotels.com. A bit on the pricier side normally which prevented us from staying a second night. But great valet service right at the front of the hotel, excellent breakfast options especially with kids, and within walking distance to a number of sights.
Very dumpy hotel for the price. And our view was literally the garbage dump for the hotel. Not a very nice place at all.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Grand Valley State University has a long standing tradition and commitment to providing quality education for students. As part of this mission, the GVSU Board of Trustees seeks to impact public K-12 education through its leadership in Michigan's Charter Schools. GVSU's dedication to fostering choice in K-12 education and positive public reform is stronger than ever.
GVSU chartered its first 3 schools in 1995, serving a total of 350 students. In our 21st year as an authorizer, GVSU charters 71 school buildings, serving over 33,000 students.
A new group of 11th and 12th-grade students came to GVSU for the second week of the Summer Enrichment Camp. The campers represented Canton Preparatory High School, Cornerstone Health + Technology High School, Crossroads Charter Academy, and Taylor Preparatory High School.
[Pictured: GVSU CSO school consultant Larry Spencer with Taylor Prep student Raphael Clements, taken just after their mock interview session]
Students from five GVSU-authorized high schools came to GVSU for the first week of Summer Enrichment Camp. At the camp the students lived the life of a typical college student - living in the dorms, taking classes, and explore the various departments of Grand Valley. Students who attended the first week represented Michigan Math & Science Academy, University Prep Science & Math High School, University Preparatory Academy High School, Byron Center Charter School, and Grand River Preparatory High School.

Utah allows the open carrying of unloaded firearms on the person with no permit or license required.1 Utah allows the open carrying of loaded firearms on the person with a concealed weapons permit.2
Guns in Schools in Utah
Utah prohibits any person from possessing any firearm at a place that the person knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is on or about school premises.1 "On or about school premises" is defined as:
- In a public or private elementary or secondary school, or on the grounds of any such school;
- In a public or private institution of higher education or on the grounds of any such institution;
- Inside the room or rooms where a preschool or child-care operation is being held.2
In 2011, Utah repealed restrictions governing other buildings, parks and stadiums being used for K-12 school activity, the area within 1,000 feet of school grounds, and other portions of buildings that house preschools and daycare centers.
Concealed weapons permit holders are not subject to the prohibition against firearms on or about school premises.3 Other exceptions include:
- Firearms used in connection with a lawful, approved activity in the possession or under the control of the person responsible for its possession or use;
- Possession at the person's place of residence;
- Possession on the person's property; or
- Possession in any vehicle lawfully under the person's control, other than a vehicle owned by the school or used by the school to transport students.4
In Utah, any student in a public elementary or secondary school who possesses or controls a firearm shall be expelled from school for a period of not less than one year.5
While the Utah State Board of Regents generally has the power to enact regulations governing the conduct of university and college students, faculty, and employees, Utah law expressly reserves to the Utah State Legislature the authority to regulate firearms at higher education institutions.6 Therefore, while the Utah State Board of Regents maintains limited authority to regulate firearms in the areas listed below, it may not otherwise authorize higher education institutions to restrict the lawful possession or carrying of firearms.7 Specifically, the State Board of Regents may authorize a higher education institution to:
- Allow dormitory residents to request only roommates who are not licensed to carry a concealed firearm; or
- Ensure enforcement of rules pertaining to private hearing rooms that have been designated as "secure areas", meaning that there are restrictions on the transportation of firearms and ammunition into the hearing rooms.8
For more information about the rights of public entities to regulate firearms on public property, see Local Authority to Regulate Firearms in Utah.
See our Guns in Schools policy summary for a comprehensive discussion of this issue.
Private Sales in Utah
Private firearms transfers (i.e., transfers by individuals not licensed as dealers) are not subject to a background check requirement in Utah.
In 2012, Utah enacted a law prohibiting transfer of a firearm to a person that the seller knows is prohibited under Utah law from possessing firearms.1
See the Firearms Trafficking in Utah section for laws aimed at gun trafficking.
Utah prohibits the sale of any firearm to a person under age 18 unless he or she is accompanied by a parent or guardian.2
See our Private Sales policy summary for a comprehensive discussion of this issue.
Gun Shows in Utah
Utah does not regulate gun shows.
See the Utah Private Sales section for state laws that apply at gun shows.
See our Gun Shows policy summary for a comprehensive discussion of this issue.
Immunity Statutes in Utah
A person who lawfully designs, manufactures, markets, advertises, transports, or sells firearms or ammunition to the public may not be sued by the state or any of its political subdivisions for the subsequent use, whether lawfully or unlawfully, of the firearm or ammunition, unless the suit is based on the breach of a contract or warranty for a firearm or ammunition purchased by the state or political subdivision.1
For detailed information about government and private party lawsuits against the gun industry, the status of litigation involving gun industry immunity statutes in various states, or pending gun industry immunity legislation, visit the Brady Center's Legal Action Project and the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence's Gun Industry Immunity page.
See our Immunity Statutes / Manufacturer Litigation policy summary for further information.
- Utah Code Ann. § 78B-4-511. ⤴
Licensing of Gun Owners & Purchasers in Utah
Utah has no law requiring gun owners or purchasers to obtain a license.
See our Licensing of Gun Owners or Purchasers policy summary for a comprehensive discussion of this issue.
Registration of Firearms in Utah
Utah does not require firearm owners to register their firearms.
Utah prohibits the Criminal Investigations and Technical Services Division of the Department of Public Safety, which performs criminal history background checks before all firearm transfers, from maintaining any records of a background check for longer than 20 days from the date of the dealer's request for the background check, if the Division determines that the individual receiving the firearm is not prohibited from purchasing, possessing, or transferring the firearm under state or federal law.1
See our Registration of Firearms policy summary for a comprehensive discussion of this issue.
- Utah Code Ann. § 76-10-526(8)(a). ⤴
Reporting Lost or Stolen Firearms in Utah
Utah does not require firearm owners to report the loss or theft of a firearm.
See our Reporting Lost or Stolen Firearms policy summary for a comprehensive discussion of this issue.
Waiting Periods In Utah
Utah has no law imposing a waiting period prior to the purchase of a firearm.
See our Waiting Periods policy summary for a comprehensive discussion of this issue.
Dealer Regulations in Utah
Federal law requires firearms dealers to obtain a license from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives (ATF), although resource limitations prevent the ATF from properly overseeing all its licensees.
Utah does not require firearms dealers to obtain a state license or otherwise significantly regulate firearms dealers. For laws:
- Applicable to both licensed and unlicensed sellers of firearms, see the Utah Private Sales section;
- Requiring firearms dealers to conduct a background check on the purchaser, see the Utah Background Checks section;
- Requiring dealers to record or report firearm sales to law enforcement, see the Utah Retention of Sales / Background Checks Records section.
See our Dealer Regulations policy summary for a comprehensive discussion of this issue.

Wow! It's been a while since I posted anything, and I feel like I owe you all an explanation! In September, I got my first studio job and moved across the country, so since then my life has been insanely busy! Things are finally starting to settle down enough that I have time to finish the personal work I start, so expect to see more from me from here on, and thanks to everyone who stuck with me! You guys are awesome.
Now let's talk about Dwarf women. Recently I decided to take on the task of designing dwarf women who didn't just feel like little humans, who could be considered attractive, and who also have beards- because Dwarf women really really should have beards, even if it's just a little. Over the course of designing them I considered that probably the main reason Dwarf women are so rarely portrayed with beards is that in our society, beards are a sign of masculinity and being women, they are often still drawn to appeal to our society's sensibilities. But Dwarves in fantasy are an entirely separate race from humans with their own styles and sensibilities and saying that their females shouldn't have beards because it doesn't appeal to humans is kind of like saying a bird shouldn't have a beak because it doesn't appeal to cats. That all led me down the rabbit hole of thinking about what would likely actually be considered attractive in a Dwarven society– well-maintained beards; Solid, muscled bodies; dainty hands suited to detailed crafting, etc.- all in all, it was a pretty fun and challenging project!

With your eyes, and your never-giving-up, and your anger, and your kindness. One day the memory of that will hurt so much that I won't be able to breathe.

I've never appreciated my nose so much until now. It's large & a little oddly-shaped. Perfect for a Dwarf.

i always found it funny how krobus tries to be polite while dwarf goes "this is literally garbage"
"The elf had regained consciousness - sort of. He leaned against Blitz, giggling silently and making random signs like, Butterfly. Pop. Yippee. Blitzen clutched his stomach and stared into space as if he were thinking of interesting ways to die."
