Nice stay - My husband and I enjoyed staying at the Ramada very much. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The Pakistani food, prepared by Chef Fareed was very tasty. He made all types of flat breads and omelette right in front of us upon request. There also was a Western selection of food for the less adventurous. The environment was very pretty and we especially loved the hospitality of the staff.

The highlight of our stay in Lecce! - Stefano is a warm, gregarious man who welcomed us to his home, and really got to know each of us as he wove his story into the conversation. He cooked a fabulous lunch as we learned of Lecce and southern Puglia, its’ treasures, and the unique passions the region inspires. He has great depth of knowledge of regional wines and pairs them beautifully with his dishes. I cannot imagine a better interlude to enrich our visit, and we highly recommend lunch or dinner with Stefano!

A major journey!! - My son and I stayed at Hotel Anya Nana 72 Sukhumvit Soi 3 Road, Bangkok last November. The location was great and close to everything worth seeing and experiencing. Very good accommodation at an affordable price. The hotel has 9 floors with an outdoor area on the roof. From there you can see well over the immediate area. We got a nice room on the 8th floor with windows. It is not possible to open the windows but it didn't matter. The ventilation saves it. Very clean in all respects and well cared for guests. The staff is exceptional and friendly. Just ask and they will help you out. You can take a taxi from the hotel, but it is much more expensive than others. We cannot give our opinion on breakfast and other food at the hotel as we chose to try all the good restaurants around. You can also get all kinds of massages, hand and foot treatments. We give this hotel 5 stars

A unique experience - Stefano the host was so passionate and knowledgeable of his home Puglia, its food and wine! It was a very enjoyable day! He cooked a full 5 course delicious Italian pranzo lunch for us that included all local fresh food! The lunch was served with 3 different local wines chosen to go with each course ! It was truly a one of a kind fantastic experience! Thank you Stefano for sharing your passion!

fantastic dinner - El Gaucho Vancouver WA I treated my wife to dinner at this fabulous steak house the other night. What a gastronomical delight. For us, this is something that we splurge on once or twice a year. We had Stake Dianne, Caesar salad, French Onion soup a baked potato. All but the potato were prepared at our table. Our waiter was Ed Lefferts. He was delightful. He made great suggestions and suggested a wine for us non wine drinkers. I believe it was a wine that he had made. It was fantastic. All in all I would highly recommend the El Gaucho in Vancouver WA.

New Year’s Eve celebration - Ten lifelong friends celebrated another New Year’s Eve at this charming Inn. We had a wonderful time. Bill and Linda were very warm and accommodating and made us feel like this was our home away from home! We will definitely return.

We will definitely go back there again in future. - We have recently traveled to Cuba and stayed at Sanctuary of Grand Memories resort. We really enjoyed our vacation there. The entertainments of Grand Memories were very good. One of their entertainers named Liliana at front gate is very nice and friendly.

Very helpful and comfortable stay - Benny was very helpful and helped me to get a room as I had problems booking online. He was very polite and made sure I had everything I needed to have a comfortable stay. He could see I was stressed as I had locked myself out of my van it was late and needed a warm place to wait and rest until the breakdown guy arrived Thank you Benny Much appreciated 🙏🏾

Non genuine spirits at Adiss Abba International Airport's Duty-Free shop - We were a group of friends enroute from Mumbai to Madrid on Ethiopian Airlines and had a stopover at Addis Abba. Whilst awaiting to take the second leg of our flight to Madrid, a few of us decided to buy some liquor from the Duty-Free shop. I purchased a bottle of Glenlivet Founders Reserve Single Malt and a Johnny Walker Black Label Scotch, both 1 liter in size from Nurhussen Yassin Omer outlet. To my utter horror, both these bottles turned out to contain purportedly non genuine whiskies. As a regular drinker of whiskies, I am very well aware of their tastes. This was corroborated by my fellow travelers who all shared their drinks amongst a few of us. Others had purchased bottles of Singleton Single Malt - 12 years, Johnny Walker Black Label Scotch and Absolut Vodka from the same outlet, Shockingly, all these bottles also had non genuine spirits in them. Can the authorities seriously look into this and take corrective measures to ensure that unsuspecting travelers are not duped in this manner?
