Ramada Limited Airport, Albuquerque

Advantages: Vital, culturally diverse city with a proud and unique heritage
Disadvantages: Growing a bit too fast for its scarce resouces

...and visitors alike may choose golf, mountain climbing, horseback riding, hunting, or mountain biking--not to mention such spectator sports as minor league baseball, horse racing at Albuquerque Downs, or Lobo basketball at the University of New Mexico. The world's longest jigback tramway can transport you to the ski runs in the Sandia Mountains above the city. After peaking at almost 1,000 balloons and crews a few years back, the annual International Balloon Fiesta in October is now limited to a mere 750--and participants do come from around the world. Albuquerque has a number of fine museums. The Indian Pueblo Cultural Center, for example, introduces visitors to the history and culture of the Pueblo peoples through native crafts, dance, lectures and presentations, and educational exhibits.

Advantages: Very convenient for the airport, New, Stylish, Comfortable
Disadvantages: The breakfast could have been better

...this was no ordinary toaster – it was the sort used in restaurant kitchens – and there were no instructions on how to operate it, or warnings that the tray the toast dropped into could get very hot.

...drinks and hot live music including jam sessions every Monday night. A monthly schedule is available to view and a visit when Tommy is playing is a must. Highly recommended!! If you want a more up-market hotel than the one I stayed at (Ramada on Chatham Road South) I suggest you consider the Peninsula (still the best hotel in HKI and Kowloon). It exudes the old-style of money and class and has its own helicopter stand on the top of the building so you can travel in style from the airport (which, incidentlally, is miles from Kowloon and even further from HKI). The Intercontinental has wonderful harbour views of HKI (worth visiting just to see the night-time views) and the Intercontinental is another high-class hotel if you prefer something smaller but elegant. I hope this has given you some idea of what Kowloon is like. I visited each... Read review
