I'm staying at the new Mövenpick Hotel in Zagreb, Croatia, and the rooms have this clever innovation whereby steel shutters can be opened when you don't need to use the air-conditioning. I wish the designers of Australian hotels would learn something from this. I hate not being able to open a window for fresh air.

Just goes to show you shouldn't take Tripadvisor reviews as gospel. I was nervy about the Verona hotel I've just stayed in (see below), as there were various negative reviews on TA. Turned out it was absolutely delightful, with great staff - though definitely a 3-star hotel rather than the 4-star it claims to be.

A reminder that many people will only post reviews when they have something negative to say (I've done that myself).

Funny, this Verona hotel is my eighth accommodation on the Europe trip, and the first one where I've had a problem with overly high, firm pillows. Usually Europe is more into the low flat pillow style.

I got the staff to search around and find me another, flatter one – and it was fortunate they succeeded, because I am willing to take to pillows with a sharp implement and extract half the stuffing if I have to. I'm not paying hundreds of dollars a night to get a terrible sleep and a sore neck.

After a couple of weeks in luxury hotels in Portugal and Spain where leisurely breakfast starts as late as 7.30am, I'm now in a business-y Mercure in France where breakfast starts at 6.30am and it was busy when I arrived in the dining room at 7am! Different world.

So one of the Academy's trustees asked me to accompany her to a business women's conference this last weekend. So she picked me up early Friday and we drove to Niagara Falls
#Canada, where we checked in one of the #Casino's #Hotels. Amy has booked a suite for us, with a king sized bed, silk sheets and a hot tub in the middle of the floor. Amy had told me to bring several businesses sexy outfits and a few for partying in the evening, and swimsuits. So we had a quick shower, and I ate Amy out before we got dressed for the opening talk. I work an open front white dress over a lace bodysuit. Amy introduced me as her niece. I met several nice women and a few brought nieces as well. After the talk we went for dinner. Five stars all around. One of the other women suggested we go to a club. So after a quick change. I wore a translucent holagraphic dress (Amy had bought it for me on a previous trip) and let's just say a lot of women at the club were lusting after me. We then went to the hotel's rooftop pool. One of the women Jan brought her real niece Amber who was really petite and young. Both Jan and Amy begged me to put on a show and teach Amber. So I took my bikini off and stripped amber of hers, before I started by kneeling down and eating her tight virgin pussy. She tasted so good and came so many times, all while six women watched. I was so horny.

The next day was back in the conference centre for multiple talks, after lunch Jan asked me to take Amber sight seeing, so we both changed into casual clothes. She wore shorts and a tee shirt and I wore a little white summer dress. We toured around the falls and the strip. When she told me she wasn't wearing panties, I told her I wasn't either. So we took us to one of the strip clubs and bribed our way in. We watched several women strip as I reached under the table in our both and fingered Amber. Two of the women offered us a private show. So we all went into a private room. The women said we should get comfortable on the couch. And the pulled my dress off and Amber's shirt and shorts. So we were both naked. They then have us so sexy lap dances switch Wich lap they were grinding against repeatedly. I licked and kissed them all over and vice versa. I was so sticky from all our cum. My fav was watching Amber scissor while I was scissoring the other woman.
After that we joined everyone for dinner and another night clubbing, it's so nice there are lesbian clubs so no worries about men. I had lots more sex at the club with women from the conference and other tourists.

Sunday and Amber and I went marine land and made out on the lazy river ride, and 69 on the ferris
🛞 wheel. Followed by strip back to the strip club after dinner Amy and Jan spoke with the owner and got permission for Amber and I to put on a show on the main stage. I've never had so many people watch as Ive made love to such a cute young girl.

I do like the way posh hotels do the breakfast buffet: help yourself to a table of cold items, then they cook your hot dish to order. Much less wasteful.

This is the spread and the menu at my second Barcelona accommodation, the Claris Hotel.

When I stay in hotels, I generally keep the Do Not Disturb sign permanently on the door handle. I'll go grab towels for myself when and if I need them, and in the rare case I'm there more than a week, I'll allow my room to be made up to get new sheets.

I'm not trying to put housekeepers out of work, I just don't want other people in my room.

I was in #Toronto last week, and we took a trip to #NiagaraFalls. I was expecting to see the Falls in the midst of nature, but that's not the case. #Niagara is a big enough city, on the Canadian side and there are a lot of #hotels, #casinos, and tacky #amusements in the vicinity of the attraction. A amazing experience was getting the boat into the mist of the falls! #Canada

As some U.S. hotels hung on to practices they adopted during the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic — such as eliminating daily room cleanings — the number of hotel housekeepers fell by more than 102,000 last year from pre-pandemic levels, according to new BLS data.

This is the sad reality for vegans and animals in 99% of all hotels and the "options" you have as vegans (see images). In many areas of life you're subsidizing this BS as a vegan. Speak up, ask the manager friendly but determined for a short discussion on it and ask for alternatives (they sometimes have). Many people are more receptive than you think but if you don't make yourself heard nothing will change.

Does anyone actually leave their key at the front desk when they head out from a hotel and pick it up when they come back, or is that just a device writers invented to give hotel clerks a chance to announce the arrival of plot-advancing messages, packages, or visitors?

I don’t think my little family can handle staying in a hotel room ever again.

Friday night’s sleep was continuously interrupted by hallway noise (kids running full-speed down the hall like they were in a relay race) and an electric heat/AC unit (that sounded like an old vehicle on its last leg).

And did I mention the bed pillows? They were like trying to sleep on truck tires. Grave Digger’s truck tires. We went to Target on Saturday morning to buy pillows to use for the duration of our stay.

We are all just wiped out. It’s naptime.

Youtube video knowingly puts a clickbait-y error in the title, and then corrects itself in the description.

Official rankings which mean anything go up to five. There's a growing number of seven star #hotels. Sure – any hole in the wall can award itself seven such stars. Or seventeen, or seventy.

Video title: "I stay in the world's only 7 star hotel” … Then in the description, we get the correct info: ”The Burj Al Arab is a five-star hotel, with the highest official ranking.”

@timrichards Floor to ceiling windows also feel visually unsafe to me. One place I stayed I cowered in the back corner of the room all night and checked out in the morning, abandoning the 3 nights I had pre-paid. Not sure what the word for that is. Not exactly agoraphobia. Fear of falling off high places. Also don't like too many floors due to fear of fire. I'm a fearful person these days. #hotels

Just reading about the new Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Melbourne, and the room descriptions on its website contain the fateful words "Floor-to-ceiling windows". To me this is code for "Windows can't be opened". Which is a deal-breaker for me, sorry mate.

Compared to politicians, SCOTUS justices enjoy gifts and hospitality with even less scrutiny. Without transparency, anyone from Putin to gun companies can buy justices with meals, hotel rooms, and God knows what else.

After a month of #Japanese budget #hotels — impeccably clean, entirely comfortable and in fully working order — arriving in the #UK has been something of a shock.

All three photos are the interior of a Toyoko Inn. It’s beige, but functional: a double bed, large desk, TV, mini-fridge, AC unit, and an all-in-one Japanese style bathroom.

The problem with using this kind of breezy copy for stuff like this is that you could possibly cause confusion. Although I understand that one side means "do not disturb" and the other side means "please make up room," the text "I'm out" could also mean "asleep." As in, "out like a light" or "passed out."

Sorry folks, these are the kinds of things I think about.
