Is there anywhere nice to stay between northern virginia and new jersey?|116041

I want to travel to New Jersey but I want to stop somewhere and stay along the way. Is there any good lodging or attractions along the way?

D.C., Baltimore, anywhere in Maryland, Wilmington Pa, Philly. I don_t know what you consider _nice_. I_ve been to D.C. and visited the Smithsonian Museum, Arlington Nat. Cemetary, and many other places. If you have Google Earth then you can look at pics that people have taken in the area, or you can do a web search.

Out of all the tourist destinations in the United States, which are the most overrated?|115643

Everyone always asks about the good spots, but I think the disappointments and not-so-worthwhile places are good to mention, as well.

Are there any that you feel weren_t as spectacular as the guidebooks claim?
Any sights that you thought were a complete waste of time?
Please say why it was disappointing.

Ft. Lauderdale and Miami. I_ll take Cocoa Beach and Orlando instead.

I guess if you are a huge partier and go to SoBe, it is alright. But, I am not. Besides sitting on the beach, there was nothing to do. We went to the Miami Seaquarium. I felt so bad for the animals in their tiny tanks.

Key West, FL beaches

They are small, man made beaches and have stinky seaweed washed up on the beach.

I agree Las Vegas is definetly over-rated
Thirty years ago _Vegas was more fun and it gave you a whole lot more bang for the buck than it does today

Mitchell Corn Palace in South Dakota Oh my gosh its so pointless basically all it is is a huge gift shop in a gymnasium with WAY overpriced stuff...dont go there,,,waste of time!

as i was reading your question i was thinking Key west just like the first poster did..it was dissapointing because the guidebooks made it sound like it was very tropical..BUT i sat in more traffic than i would driving home from work during rush hour, the water was not clear and warm at all (the snorkeling tours obviously sucked because of that), how tropical is it when there is a TGIF retaurant, walgreens, Rite-Aid, Poppa Johns pizza, etc on every corner, Duval st was pretty cool if i was with my friends partying but me and my girlfriend were looking for a tropical secluded getaway and Key west was far from it...

Las Vegas. The casinos are fine, but everything else they_ve tried to put in there just takes up space and doesn_t really provide anything else to do.

I_ve been to several places and i think Pensacola is highly overated.I used to book hotels when i traveled and what i did was i was booking with the wrong hotels!They were so pricey!So i said screw it,i got a tip from a friend and he told about a website at www.goodlifeworldplaza.com.I found the cheapest prices here!They also have a spot were you can play casino!I love this site!

What is the best are in philly to live in?|183055

My friends and i want to get an apartment in philly, but we don_t know what area is the best?

_best_ is rather vague...it all depends on what you_re looking for. For example, do you have a car? how old are you? what are your primary concerns? cost?

I would say the top places to live in the city are center city, bella vista, old city, society hill, university city. But this is based on a young-ish crowd (20-40). It all depends on what you_re looking for.

What do you want out of it? How old are you? Where will you be working??

Alot factors in to the decision. To keep it short, in addition to what Lindsay said, Manayunk, East Falls, South Philly, Graduate Hospital, _ Fairmount are all good as well.

Whats the best way to get to Minnesota from Dayton by avoiding Chicago?|194153

A few friends and I driving up to Minnesota this summer and we_re coming from Dayton, Ohio. We would really like to avoid Chicago, what_s the best way to bypass Chicago?

I-75 north to St. Ignace, Michigan, and US-2 west to Duluth. But once you get off of 75, it_s all two-lane roads except for a few wide spots. That will slow you down a lot. You may just be better off taking the I-294 toll road around Chicago.

I would drive up into Michigan, taking the Lake Michigan car ferry across to Manitowoc, Wis. then across Wis. to Minnesota. The car ferry is a good experience, _ lots of countryside to see.

A better question is why on earth would you would want to do that?

How was your stay at the Monte Carlo in Las Vegas?|107427

Give me some tips and interesting things that can be found through a visitor_s view. I already know everything on the website. Thanks!

I stayed at the Monte Carlo for a few days with my cousins. I didn_t like it that much, nothing fancy to me unless you get a really really great room. We had either the back or front view, I think it was the back view. Some rooms have a bad view, ours had a construction site and parking lot. We could see about 2/10 part of the New York New York hotel and the roller coaster. The pool sucks because there_s a hotel building covering half of the sunlight for the lazy river and wave pool. The lazy river was O.K. but it was too short and it didn_t felt like a river. Thier pool was very dirty and there were leaves and plant stems and some cigerettes floating, kind of disgusting. There_s one heated pool where most adults stay and is usually crowded and the sun is shining on it. I think the pool stays up to 7pm.
Probably the only thing I liked in the Monte carlo was that the food court was close and I got to walk around the strip, it_s close to M _ M world/gameworks/coca cola.
My stay at monte carlo was okay, nothing spectacular like other great hotels in las vegas. This hotel isnt for me cause I have asthma and this hotel has alot of people smoking indoors and such.

People are being a bit harsh about the Monte Carlo. It is a pretty nice hotel and I like it. It is not loaded with attractions and it is not enormous in size but to me that is a definite advantage. Those huge everything under one roof hotels may be fine for some but to me places like the MGM or Caesars are so big, the walk from the lobby to your room is exhausting.

However, I cannot recommend the Monte Carlo or New York New York until 2010. There is a massive and I mean massive construction project called City Center underway that runs from the Monte Carlo to the Bellagio.

In fact, there is a inordinate amount of construction going on all over Las Vegas. The Wynn is adding as second tower called Encore, there are several condo projects and the Mirage is refurbishing the Volcano out front so that is a mess, too. If this is your first time to Las Vegas you will not be seeing it at its best.

*

The Monte Carlo is the worst Las Vegas hotel built in the last 20 years. Other than Lance Burtons show, it has nothing to offer! There_s nothing to see or do in it. I went to the Monte Carlo the other day just do remind myself how much I hate it.

The pool is practically unusable right now. They_re building a big hotel 150 feet from the pool and there_s staging _ construction traffic 10 feet from the pool! It_s no place to relax and pretty dirty.

Sorry if that_s not what you were wanting..

My stay was almost exactly like the person above. It wasn_t the best hotel I have ever stayed at but, it does save money. I don_t like the pool because there is construction going on about 100 feet from the pools. So, that got annoying. You can get a few good views if you stay in the rooms facing the strip. So all in all it was just ok.

Oh wow, don_t stay there ever again. It_s my second least favorite hotel to stay at (next to the Stratosphere). The only good thing about it was that it was in front of the MGM

How many hours does it take to get to New York City from Buffalo?|119087

I am going to a wedding with my sis in Buffalo and we want to go to NYC but was wondering how long it would take?

I_ll assume you mean driving time, 6.5 hours from midtown. More if you stop to pee.

nyc is way too far from the B-Lo..go to toronto instead, its only 1 1/2 hours away and just as cool as nyc (well pretty close anyway)

NYC is like an 8 hour drive from Buffalo.

What are the bathrooms like in the Gaylord Hotel in Nashville?|102266

I prefer bathrooms with the sink and mirror in the bathrooms, but haven_t been able to find any pictures or information on how the bathrooms at the Gaylord Hotel are set up. We will be staying in a standard guest room, nothing extra fancy. Has anyone been there and can tell me how the bathrooms are set up? Thanks!

hi there,information for you..enjoy your stay..

The bathrooms are all tiled and have a marble vanity and sink. There is a very nice makeup mirror that is lit and hangs on the wall
