Book with Expedia Hotel Reviews

BOOK WITH EXPEDIA
-Recommended-

Last year, me and my boyfriend, we decided that the mid-summer would be California. The choice of a trip to LA was born a little 'for fun and curiosity to see the prices that the web had to offer. Expedia
it seemed now that the site could do for us. We made an offer for a trip of 10/12 days including flight, car and hotel.
The advice I can give you is to book now or still in a hurry when you see an offer that interests you. I tell you why we waited a week plentiful and the price had risen wildly. There was talk of at least 300/400 Eu more head! The idea was to leave immediately around August 10. Unfortunately, as mentioned above, the price had risen too we chose August 16 as the date of departure (we saved quite a bit '!).
The flight we chose seemed excellent, both as a scale, both as zones. We have a stopover in Philadelphia, both outward and return the company with U.S. Airways. Before booking, we did a nice job of assessing in particular on the proposed hotel. I advise you not to take the first at the lowest price that will happen but to try and maybe spend a little more. We chose a hotel, not only for the position seemed perfect, but especially for the opinions we have found wandering around on the Internet. In fact, many hotels to lower prices, the views were really bad!
For this purpose I recommend that you use Trip Advisor where you can find many reviews for most of the hotels around the world! E 'was our bible for the search for the right accommodation!
After many, many evaluations we have chosen the hotel is the Custom Hotel near the airport (do not worry, the rooms are soundproofed) and especially very near the coast, Santa Monica in the first place (that was the goal of almost all our evenings!). One thing that made us choose this hotel is that, unlike many other features, includes continental breakfast! Without this we have also booked the car, choosing a compact, corresponding to a Ford Focus (or similar).
addition we also entered into the insurance that covers not only the Expedia trip cancellation, lost luggage and all these things, but also health insurance. I recommend for such a trip, not to spare. For a single trip in the U.S. Expedia asking $ 50. You can search the different sites if you find the best opportunities! Total price of the trip includes: return flights, accommodation for 11 nights, car hire and insurance cover for 12 days was 1240 EU head! A bargain!
A dispassionate advice: if want to have less trouble, look for a flight with a stopover in Europe. The American airports are unfortunately wasting time with all of their process to go through customs, but if you do not have a European scale this thing do it!
I remind you that the updated information on the type of passport that allows you to enter the USA can be found on the website of the State Police. And I remind you that before you leave, you must register on the site of the East. Unfortunately, in September 2010 ESTA you pay $ 14 per well-head.

SMALL NOTE: Expedia the possibility to pay with two different credit cards. And be careful if you pay with prepaid cards, I read about people who have had problems. I personally have used a normal credit card and I did not mange any kind!
I hope to be helpful, a hug!

15 Años Y Follando



Hotel reviewed: The Reef Playacar (Playa del Carmen, Mexico); Custom Hotel (Los Angeles, California); Step Hotel (Prague), Santorini Image Hotel (Santorini), Gull Island Camping, Bungalow Paradise ( Isola dei Gabbiani Sardegna).

When you visit a new country, the choice of hotel to stay is the one that takes away more time throughout the organization, at least for me.
Before booking, I always look at the various reviews that I find on the Internet, of course the site more useful to me is Trip Advisor .
A tip though, always take it with pliers everything that is said in the reviews. I mean, many hotels competing negative review could put some on purpose and many people have very different standards than we do. So maybe something that we should be just fine, someone else will not tolerate this and puts a negative opinion.
So reviews can, but read it well and compare them. I remain always of the opinion that for certain travel spirit of adaptation is crucial. As for me I try cleanliness, comfort and warmth as a location, stop. I do not ask the world.
But let's review a few, often extremely personal, but I hope it can be helpful to someone.

The Reef Playacar - PLAYA DEL CARMEN - MEXICO
-Recommended- Website
on Reef Playacar Our choice was made by comparing the photos (and services) of the various proposed Resort Travel agency: the most beautiful, in our opinion, and the more immersed in the green was just the Reef.
as soon as we arrived we were stunned by the amount of greenery and plants present within the complex, we were really impressed! Has exceeded our expectations!
We stayed at the Reef on 27 July 2010 to August 10, 2010
But we go into detail.
SERVICES: The service is excellent I'd say. They are all very available for any information or any problem. Just arrived in the room were a variety of tools to adjust the climate and the type that has been with us just proceeded to call to find out if it was done.
We fortunately we did not need anything fancy, but just for information is really available.
towels for the pool or the sea are always available and you can change it as many times as you want during the day. And those who take are clean and fragrant, really good.
And 'one of the few hotels that offer free wireless Internet, both in the lobby to the pool area. Excellent. ROOM: Grande Spacious, fresh and very well equipped. The bed is huge and comfortable, the bathroom very nice and with all the furnishings that are used to a quiet and peaceful stay. In addition to TV, air conditioning (or heating if necessary), blades on the ceiling if you just want to air, a friendly and nice balcony with two chairs and a table. Really helpful.
The cleaners are made daily by some nice ladies who put so much effort. We never found anything to laugh about even, our room was redone generally ready about noon, with clean towels and two bottles of water. Excellent.
POOLS: The pools are 2 medium. The first you meet going to the sea also has a bar located just inside, with seats in the water. Needless to say, the pool is more under attack. It 'nice, especially for water-mix drinks but is also the dirtiest of the two, despite being cleaned every morning. There are people just throw the ashes of civil and cigarettes into the water or people who just eat and drink by the pool or even inside. Dirty it is just unavoidable. A mid-morning and then the water reaches a temperature slightly bearable (it's hot!).
The second one has 2 basketball hoop at each end and is also commonly used by animators. It 's more quiet but also heats up this early, being under the direct sunlight all day. This is definitely cleaner than the other, although in this there are obviously more children. BEACH AND SEA: good, beautiful, breathtaking. Too bad for algae on its bagnoasciuga that were not removed by anyone, while in other hotels it was always done. Variety of water sports (extra charge) and many chairs, four poster beds (but especially in the pool) and umbrellas available. Cool.
ENTERTAINERS: We spread a veil. There are 4 if I'm wrong and they tried. But the animation is not quite Italian and not at all annoying. But here, perhaps a minimum of involvement would have liked. They have put us just zero effort. But it's not a big problem. To be reviewed. FOOD: No problem with the food, we liked almost everything, from appetizers to desserts (really good!). Needless to say then that breakfast was our favorite meal!
We drank their water without any problems and we have not had any kind of disturbance. We take precaution, one tablet each of lactic acid bacteria, every night. Probably helped a lot.
There are, in addition to Buffet Chula Vista, two restaurants, both excellent, non-payment and you do not need reservation: the Terrace Grill (Mexican restaurant where they serve mostly fish) and Botticelli (Itialiano restaurant with a soft background of Italian music of the 60s). Both excellent, excellent buffet and great cocktails that were in the pool or at the bar near the theater.
the afternoon, then we could eat pizza, hot dogs, chicken wings, burgers and fries to "grill" (can not remember the name) next to the pool bar, a quiet and unhealthy snack after a day of ruins! All Good.
LOCATION: Absolutely perfect. A few minutes walk from the center of Playa del Carmen in one of the nicest and most subsidiaries of Riviera Beach.
If necessary, outside the hotel, there is free parking if you decide to rent the car! We found ourselves really well and would recommend it absolutely. Al Reef is good, you are immersed in nature and the environment is really friendly. We had no problems of any kind: neither the room nor the service nor the food or water.
really good and relaxing holiday!

CUSTOM HOTEL - LOS ANGELES - CALIFORNIA
-Recommended- Website
Me and my boyfriend have stayed at the Custom Hotel in August 2009 for 10 days by booking through Expedia (that's why we had the continental breakfast already included in the price).
Now We read many reviews, some of which are mainly negative reviews on TripAdvisor. We do not find ourselves in complete agreement, we found ourselves really well.
I would like also to stress that this is a business hotel, but even if you're not on a business trip we think is really perfect as a base for your holiday.
The location is absolutely excellent, just 3 km from the airport (fully soundproofed bedrooms) in a strategic position to reach the coast (and at any part of the city!).
The room was large and very comfortable. Huge bed, spacious bathroom, in-room space, safe and small refrigerator. We did not find too dark corridors as someone he said. Pool parties almost every night, but then again, sound-proofed room so you do not have problems (if you give yourselves a room that overlooks the pool, but one that is on the golf course!).
Parking is expensive (22 dollars a day), but it's worth it for the service you give: you bring the car whenever you want.
Please do not absolutely all parked outside the supermarket next night (Ralph!) because you risk not finding the car (they are very tax on that!). The service was really good. Daily cleaning, hearty breakfast (tea or coffee, fruit juice and a plate into muffins, cakes, pastries and jam!) And staff available for questions and complaints.
If I had to go back to LA I think I'll stay here again, we really liked and we were really good!

STEP HOTEL - PRAGUE
-not-recommended Website
New Year 2008: Prague, staying at the Hotel Step.
see him on the Internet makes a big impression because it is really full of amenities: pool, tennis, pool, gym, golf, etc ... Too bad everything is, but everyone paid.
The room is very small, we were not the place for a suitcase or traveling, it was just too much too tight! The bathroom idem, very small, very close to the shower, my boyfriend was there barely. Fortunately I managed to avoid the hotel restaurant, but my boyfriend and two other friends have not had the same luck. Frozen pizza and small. Should be carefully avoided. Breakfast
poor poor poor! Just two or three little things and if you have the misfortune to arrive a minute after closing time as indicated by their six frigates, they begin to clear everything and do not look at anybody.
very uncomfortable position, to go and take the tram you have to pass under a bridge along a road frequented by drug addicts and vagrants. We felt so safe, especially when we returned late at night.
By public transportation to go downtown it takes about twenty minutes!
For two or three days is not bad, but I really do not go back especially for the uncomfortable position!

SANTORINI IMAGE HOTEL - SANTORINI
-Recommended-
I stayed at the Santorini Image in August 2008 for two weeks
Turning on the internet I read so many negative comments on this resort, but frankly I found myself well.
The structure is really beautiful and very large. The inside has just been renovated, but I was outside in the bungalows (the ones facing the pool).
Ours was of normal size, nothing exceptional as furniture, rather Spartan, but livable with no problem. The beauty of the bungalow is that you or the porch in the middle of the lawn if you're on the ground floor or a balcony with table and chairs if you are on the first floor. Bath
ok with huge mirror that takes the whole wall!
cleaning and daily cleaning are obviously bene.Il food is ok, the self-service is great, as long as you want wine, water and food to take away even more varied and limitless. The cakes are spectacular then, there were usually about 3-4 different types, are fabulous!
Very nice and comfortable even on all-inclusive service that we enjoyed so much (especially in the pool or at the bar that night pre and post dinner!)
The only flaw that I can report is absolutely Alpituor staff that is nothing short of non-existent and even the animation. To love the boys were engaged but very little ..
The location is strategic, the Image is Messaria, practically in the center of Santorini. If you rent a scooter please, do not rent at the hotel. The day you arrive there will be a presentation with Alpitour and will tell you that you can hire them at competitive prices, but it is not true. You should look for a rent, there's one right next to Santorini Image, we do have rented one to 13 euros a day and if you have any problems I will change (we Initially we had one that was not the picture, we went back and have it changed!).
Among other things, we, the Image, parked it right under the mini-apartment! More convenient than that!
I would say that I would advise, we found ourselves well and the position is more than excellent!

Camping Isola dei Gabbiani, PARADISE BUNGALOW - ISLE OF SEAGULLS - Sardinia
- Not recommended- Website
Encouraged by the photos can be found at the price it just me, my boyfriend and another Couple decide to book a week at the Paradise Island Bungalow of the Gulls.
A little example, the bungalow Paradise is the largest one (there is also written BIG), one in the best position is renewed (the others are not). The only thing
"Paradise" which we found was only the location, just steps from the sea (but really close): beautiful view, paradise cove next to the magnificent sea. But if we talk about the Bungalow, mamma mia, open or sky.
From the outside are not much, then the roof seemed to me there was Eternit (but was not made illegal because it contains asbestos?). But the real surprise we had when we opened the door. Now, we expected the bedroom and the kitchen, the sofa bed. But no! Ok bedroom (but you can not move in, the bed takes the whole site), the bathroom ok (always forever dirt on the ground, I do not know where all that crap coming out from the walls, perhaps?), Ok the kitchen, but I did not expect to have to sleep on a bench and a table unsafe! Yes, the table (where we had to eat up), was lowered to become an uncomfortable bed, which was added to the cushion of the seats. In short, a nightmare. My boy short, is 185 cm tall, had to sleep on the bench or we were afraid it could break the table. So nights to move as little as possible, among other things, with water seeping through the window when it rained.
A nightmare, whereas very little is enough to make a comfortable place so small. Luckily, we chose the Paradise! I dare not imagine the disgust of others!
