Which Santa Monica Hotel is worth its price?
Q. Going to Santa Monica in late June. Which hotel do you believe is better? We're staying for 3 nights, family of four. We have a 14 and an 11 year old. (if that changes anything) :)
There's the Loews Hotel at 1700 Ocean Ave. ($300/night)
* comes with $100 food/drink credit!
and The Fairmont Miramar at 101 Wilshire Blvd. ($339/night)
^ I've stayed at this one before, it was great. is it as good as Loews?

A. This hotel isn't in Santa Monica, but it is nearby and is a very interesting place. It was formerly a small apartment building used for Hollywood starlets. It is now owned by one of actor Dudley Moore's former wives.
There are four large suites and a detached apartment. They are decorated in a wonderful plushness of old Hollywood. One of the suites even has a piano once owned by Dudley Moore.
It is called Villa Delle Stelle. Check out reviews on Tripadvisor.com.

I am going to Miami and staying at the Royal Palm, can I use other Hotel Pools?
Q. I am leaving on Saturday with my friend. We are staying at the Royal Palm and I will be next to Loews Miami Beach Hotel, I heard it is really nice. Can I use their pool? Or is that something that only hotel guests get to use?
Also, I can use other hotel's restaurants and bars right? I haven't traveled alot!

A. how funny same thing happened to me i was at the crappy royal palm and tried to go use the loews pool but someone came to my lounge chair and tossed me even tough i had bough a drink so be prepared to be embarrassed. the rate difference at those two hotels is quite alot. i found the royal palm to be run down we had an ocean front view and all those rooms had nasty black mold on the roof of the rooms and the front desk said yep they are all like that!
you can use any hotels bar and restaurant but not their pool area unless you are a guest, it is considered trespassing

How to get from Miami International Airport to South Beach?? (cheapest!)?
Q. Hey! It's my first time in Florida... i booked a hotel in Loews Hotel (address: 1601 Collins Avenue Miami Beach, Florida 33139) - it's supposed to be on South Beach... I was wondering what was the cheapest way to get there from MIA... it's about 20 minutes and I know taxi is gonna be expensive... are there any buses?? I checked with the hotel and there are no shuttles... was wondering if there are any other ways to get there! (maybe another secret shuttle i dont know about...?)
Thanks!
Thanks!
A. Supershuttle, pick it up outside arrivals, look overhead for the blue & yellow sign. $18.00 a person. Cab is in the same place: $32.00 + tip flat rate per cab. See the dispatcher outside arrivals. If 2 or more are traveling together, the cab is a better deal.
