Advantages: Comfortable, clean, firndly and helpful staff Disadvantages: No restaurant available during our stay
When planning a holiday, accommodation is obviously a major part of the decision. Everyone has different objectives in their selection. For our holiday to Vienna, my husband and I set out wants and needs before scouring around for suitable venues.
We decided on Hotel accommodation. Although holidaying in major city, we wanted a quiet place to stay but yet close enough to local amenities to enable easy access. We wanted good quality service with double bed and bath. These were our agreed prior requirements.
Obviously travel brochures and Internet sites only provide a limited description and a basic picture, so you take a risk. We came across the Hotel Harmonie, with the following blurb, ?The Harmonie Hotel occupies a quiet location, next to a park belonging to a French secondary school.

Advantages: Location, Pricing, Expert knowledge Disadvantages: They need a bigger shop
As some of you may know, I am a keen, if not very skilled musician. I play a wide variety of instruments and it is always good to find a music shop that is a) not too far from home, b) staffed by very knowledgeable and friendly people and c) doesn't charge over the odds for their equipment.

Being an Audio Visual enthusiast and a massive geek, my lounge is stuffed full of all sorts of seperates that require remote controls. From my 7.1 denon amp to my Sony HDD CD player. So a grand total of 5 remote controls had to find a home on the coffee table or bookshelf and it was driving my wife nuts. Especially when she picked the wrong controller and was trying to turn the TV up with the DVD remote. If you had more than one piece of equipment on, its a pain to have to use multiple controllers to turn them off or simply adjust settings.
For a long while I'd wanted a remote to do it all, more so though, I wanted one with a touch screen. After all, who doesn't love touch screen?
So, I did a little research on the the internet and surfed over to www.avforums.com amoung other sites. The logitech harmony range had rave reviews ...
