Advantages: Good Prices, Lovely Staff, Good Location Disadvantages: None
.
The bathroom was big enough for the 4 of us. There is a bath with an overhead shower which was gorgeous. They also give you some essentials in the bathroom and fresh towels everyday.
The rooms are cleaned daily.
We stayed in a room on the Queens Blvd side, although it can be a little noisy esp as all the drivers love their hooter you can just watch the world go by.
--Staff--
The staff are always very polite, especially those on reception and in the restaurant.
There is a pick up/drop off to the 3 main airports which is free coming in but $6 per person going back which isnt bad considering the cost of a cab. The drivers are hilariously funny!!!
--Getting into Manhattan--
The local subway is about 10 minutes walk away, then around 20/30mins on the train. Its $25 for a 7 days unlimited ride metro ticket. So for the amount you save on your ...
Advantages: Get BA Miles fast Disadvantages: Must be a BA frequent flyer. Have Tesco card as back-up
pays for itself. If you are fortunate enough to posess an American Express Centurion (Black) charge card, Amex waive the £120 fee anyway. Perhaps they do it with the Platinum card, but to be honest I don't know.
With a BA Amex card on the Premium Plus level one accumulates 1.5 miles for every one pound spent and 3 miles for every one pound spent on BA. This really adds-up.

Sometimes stores don't take Amex, but not so many as to be a worry. I don't shop at Boots much anymore, but that is about it.
On the rare occasions that ...
Advantages: A good vocalist Disadvantages: The Album
I know this CD isn't out in the UK for another week or two, but I borrowed this CD from a friend who brought it from America, it's the same CD, so here is the review.
Who are All American Rejects?
Formed by Tyler Ritter and Nick Wheeler, they have released 3 albums so far, their first album as in 2002 and named after the band, and my favourite album called Move Along came out in 2005 and then finally the album I am reviewing now, came out in 2008. I will be calling the band AAR instead of All American Rejects throughout the review as it's just easier to use, so I hope you don't get too confused.
The Tracks
Track 1: I Wanna- 7/10
I think this song could have been brilliant, but for me, Tyson doesn't sound like he usually does and as well as that he is overpowered by the music on the chorus. The band has ...
