I booked close (within 2 blocks of) my destination and with the exception of my getting a little lost after the flight, everything was great, exceptionally quiet, and very convenient. ##### David M. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Eric G. 23 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Not what I expected The property was nice. It was the outside noise that wasn't. Construction was going on Friday and Saturday. Right outside our window people were moving into a building right behind the building all day Friday and Saturday. The neighbors next door was constantly making noise. No television so my girlfriend and I went and brought one because the weather was kind of funny one day. Went up to the rooftop deck and that turned out to be just a roof. Nothing special. The bathroom was nice except for the air vent that was going on all night long. I don't think I will be going back. ##### Eric G. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Los Canos de Meca](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Canos-De-Meca-Hotels.d6056864.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Sofia Alcudia Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alcudia-Hotels-Sofia-Alcudia-Beach-By-Ferrer-Hotels.h41978297.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Oahu](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Oahu-Hotels.s50-0-d180077.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn Lancaster by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lancaster-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Lancaster.h6655191.Hotel-Information) > > [Pittsburgh Marriott City Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pittsburgh-Hotels-Marriott-Pittsburgh-City-Center-Hotel.h43447.Hotel-Information) > > [Bungalows Playa Limones](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yaiza-Hotels-Bungalows-Playa-Limones.h2118182.Hotel-Information) > > [Joinery Hotel Pittsburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pittsburgh-Hotels-Distrikt-Hotel-Pittsburgh.h17900777.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Pewsey](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pewsey-Hotels.d6125401.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Carlisle House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carlisle-Hotels-Carlisle-House.h2502806.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Waterpark in Dubai Emirate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Dubai-Emirate-Waterpark-Hotel.0-0-d1079-twaterparkhotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Burnopfield](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burnopfield-Hotels.d3000404971.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Rustic Luxury - Log Cabin in the Pocono Mountains - Indoor Sauna- Close to Ski](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pocono-Lake-Hotels-Rustic-Luxury-Log-Cabin-In-The-Pocono-Mountains-Indoor-Sauna-Close-To-Ski.h98745428.Hotel-Information) > > [Staverton Park Hotel & Golf Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Daventry-Hotels-Staverton-Park-Hotel-Golf-Club.h1587153.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Cavaliere Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cavaliere-Beach-Hotels.0-l553248633938962096-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Historic Hotels in Buenos Aires](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Buenos-Aires-Hotels-Historic-Hotel.0-0-d178242-tHistoricHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Cheap Hotels in Rome](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rome-Hotels-Budget-Hotels.0-0-d179899-tBudgetHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Sommacampagna (VRN) to Bolzano (BZO)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/vrn/bzo/verona-to-bolzano) > > [Flights from Gaborone (GBE) to Hounslow (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gbe/lhr/gaborone-to-london) > > [Flights from Jamaica (JFK) to Brisbane (BNE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jfk/bne/new-york-to-brisbane) > > [Flights from los cabos intl airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/airports/sjd/flights-from-los-cabos-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Liverpool (LPL) to Cologne (CGN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lpl/cgn/liverpool-to-cologne) > > [Flights from Dubai (DXB) to Liverpool (LPL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/dxb/lpl/dubai-to-liverpool) ### Activities ### Packages > [Lady Heyes Crafts and Antique Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lady-Heyes-Crafts-And-Antique-Centre-Frodsham.d553248621561942133.Attraction) > > [Poland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/all-inclusive-holidays/146/Poland) > > [Amsterdam](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/all-inclusive-holidays/178229/Amsterdam) ### General ---
