HIE


Our hotel this trip was the Holiday Inn Express, chosen for its location in the center of the sites we wanted to see. Upsides, the hotel was cheap and came with a free breakfast included. It had wi-fi for a fee, and cable with a few English channels. Downsides, no restaurant in the hotel and no room service, so after a day of travelling, you still have to leave the place to get any dinner. Also, at this particular hotel, there was a smoking patio outside that carried echoing voices up to our room. In the past we’ve stayed in soundproofed rooms (though never intentionally), and the difference here was noticeable.

  1. K,

    Your Aunt Kyle and I just got back from New Smyrna beach, Florida. The timeshare place we stayed in had us set up with a double bed,...much too small. So we opted to pull the fold out bed out and give that a try....and that felt like I was sleeping on steel rods with no matress. So back to the full bed where the bed is right next to the window and the wind was blowing so hard that is sounded like a whistle was blowing the whole night. If that wasn't bad enough, your Aunt Kyle and I were throwing elbows into each other's rib cages. Lovely vacation. Actually your Aunt Kyle loves the area and wouldn't mind buying a house there.
