Apartment smelled of drains

Advantages: Nice pool, pleasanr helpful staff, appartment very clean
Disadvantages: Bathroom stunk of drains, kitchen antiquated, no kettle, toaster or hairdryer

...in the car and go and explore for a while. SUNSHINE MAKES EVERYTHING LOOK GOOD: We made our way up to the pool area and were pleasantly surprised by a couple of big pools, lots of sun loungers and umbrellas, a couple of quiet bars and a restaurant. It all looked quiet, sunny and inviting. We sat down and enjoyed an iced tea and toasted sandwiches. We had been up since 2am and I had only had a cup of coffee and water so I was quite hungry by now. The waiter was lovely and the food was fine. We were getting quite positive vibes and when we went back to reception they said our apartment was ready we were almost on a high. MAYBE I SPOKE TOO SOON: We drove around to near our apartment and went up to the top floor, no lift but we are quite fit so that is not a great problem. We struggled with the old key in the lock and eventually got in. It...

Estella Hotel and Apartments Did NOT Disappoint!

Advantages: Excellent location, superb customer service levels and lovely rooms
Disadvantages: No real facilities for the disabled

...Estella Hotel Apartments is based in Limassol in Southern Cyprus where I stayed for 6 nights in late April/early May of 2009 with my cousin. The booking was made via Expedia.co.uk and worked out at approximately £200 for 2 of us sharing a twin apartment (just £100 each basically). Before I confirmed the booking through Expedia I went off and did a bit of research on the hotel to make sure I wasn?t getting something that was cockroach infested. The hotel?s website, although fairly basic in appearance, made the hotel look pleasant enough and I sent an email to the hotel asking what amenities were included in the rooms/apartments. I received a reply in very clear English very promptly and then started a chain of emails between myself and the very helpful contact at Estella, a lovely lady called Helen (who was away in Australia during...

Does size matter?

Advantages: great graphics and gameplay
Disadvantages: poor sound

...Back in 2002, a game was created that has never really been seen before. The game combined the longevity and puzzle elements of a platformer, with the firepower of a shooter. Ratchet and clank was born, and the series of games since have never really deviated from the original blueprint. At the end of the day, if a thing isn't broke, then why fix it? So, our favourite (and only.) lombax, and robot duo are back, for one more outing. What exactly a lombax is, I dont know but the closest thing I could compare him to is a fox. Size matters, is the first time that the duo have ventured onto the portable consoles. I can say that the conversion has been a happy one, and none of the fun or excitment of its big console twins has been lost. In this installment, our two heroes are on the beach, on holiday. A young girl fan finds them...

Review of Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters (PSP)

Size Matters

Advantages: Sharp, funny and informative
Disadvantages: Made me crave fast food

...Having heard that two obese teenagers were suing McDonald?s for making them fat, film-maker Morgan Spurlock decided to see what would happen if he ate nothing but McDonald?s food and drink, three meals a day for thirty days. ?Super Size Me? is the result. The idea for ?Super Size Me? came to director Spurlock after an enormous Thanksgiving meal at his mother?s house. His producer said that it was ?a really great bad idea? and the rest, as they say is history. The rules of engagement were simple; Spurlock could only eat and drink items available over-the-counter at McDonald?s, he had to eat three meals a day from the chain, he had to eat everything on the menu at least once and if he was offered the chance to super size his meal, he had to accept. Thankfully he wasn?t stumbling blindly into this endeavour ? he had a back-up team...

Is Size Important?

Advantages: Great photos and lots of educational values.
Disadvantages: See review.

...- The Book - This is a non-fiction book and as the name suggests it's focus is on size and the associated vocabulary: * big and small - This double page shows 2 ?big? things, an elephant and a skyscraper, adjacent to which are many photos of small things such as paper clips, grapes, buttons, marbles etc. * big, bigger, biggest - Chilldren are invited to draw comparisons between three living things from a big toucan to the biggest out of the three, a hippo. * small, smaller, smallest - Again there are photos of animals and objects, varying in size from small to the smallest. * tall and short - The concept of tall and short is then introduced on a double page with a photo of a tall giraffe next to a short dog and a tall sunflower next to short daisies etc. It would have been even better if the author had extended this...

Review of Sizes (Lift-the-Flap) - Anne S. A. Millard

Latina Size into your favourite dress

Advantages: You do tone up
Disadvantages: You need a good space to perform the routines properly

...Well at the start of the year I promised myself instead of talking about toning up I would actually this time do something about it....surprisingly I did and I feel great. One of the tools I used in my bid to shape up and get fit for Summer was the brilliant Latina Size dvd. As a fan of Strictly Come Dancing I thought this would be a fun way to shape up (and I liked the idea of learning some moves!). The dvd is broke down into 5 sections: Simply Salsa, Rumba Tone, Jump 'n' Jive, Cha Cha Burn and Sambasize. Each one targets a different part of your body so you can alternate depending on what you want to work out. I got into the routine of focusing on the Jump 'n' Jive sections at least twice a week to help tone the dreaded thighs! There is also a warm up and cool down section. Lilia's goes through all the moves first showing...

HPB SUPERB! APARTMENTS

Advantages: Beautiful, Peaceful, Ample parking and easy to find.
Disadvantages: Isolated, Peaceful No nightlife.

...During my summer holidays I embarked on a great holiday to Scotland for 10 days. I am going to review the Apartments and the complex and the surrounding areas. ********************** Location ********************** The Trossachs is located around an hour northwest of Stirling and within an hour of Glasgow. The are a number of small towns with lots of pubs, shops and Edinburgh woolen mill shops around. There is Aberfoyle and Callender within 10 minutes drive which both have an array of shops and tourist centers. Around the area near the hotel is a number of large rocky mountains and mountain streams all within walking distance of the hotel. There are also three beuatiful lochs within 5 to 10 minutes that can be cycled round or just to sit by for a picnic, we took advantage of the picnic sites around the lochs quite frequently...

The size is no longer so super

Advantages: Educational
Disadvantages: Rather weird

...I'd been curious about this film since I 1st heard about it when it entered cinema's. Initially it didn't interest me and I didn't want to go and see it. I was curious but I wasn't going to pay cinema prices to watch it. I had the same kind of feelings when it became available on DVD and video, but finally I got my chance to see it when it was shown on UK TV on channel 4. This film follows Morgan Spurlock (No, I don't know who he is either) and his special diet. His diet or plan to eat 3 meals a day at McDonalds for 30 days. He starts out by having medical exams, blood tests and so on to check his initial health, fitness and many other things. Morgan has made a promise, he will only ever super-size a meal if he is asked by a salesperson (something that happened 9 times in his 30 days. Shortly after eating his 1st super-size meal...

Terralta Apartments are the best

Advantages: Loads of Entertainment, lovely staff, Easy to get to the bus stop.
Disadvantages: It stands upon a steep hill which isn't that good for people with Health Problems

...I stayed here in 2005 and I went again in May 2007 for two weeks. I enjoyed everything about my Holiday to Benidorm(Where Terralta resides) that I would give the entire holiday a 10 out of 10. This apartment is mainly for people with Children, but the older people like it just as much. The only problem with going to these apartments is the steep hill that leads up to the apartments. So if you have High Blood Pressure, bad legs or back then this is not a good idea, but saying that there is a bus service that stops directly outside, which takes you to the new town for only 1 euro. These Apartments are not that far from the main centre of Benidorm so if you fancy a walk instead of getting the bus, its really not that far. There is two Swimming Pools, one inside and one outdoors. The inside pool is for when the Adults need to get away...
