Another declined upgrade, another video review for our YouTube Channel. We went basic for our one night stay at Room Mate Aitana hotel near Amsterdam Central Station.
Seating: There’s an impressive attempt to separate the seating areas in this small lounge. Kudos, Swissport. Booths, benches, loungers with those tiny table/desk things built in and cafe seating combine to make this a tiny club fit for all types of loungers.
Slowly, I’m working on a special piece called “Totally Unremarkable Hotel Rooms” and The Marriott SFO Waterfront Hotel currently makes the cut. We dig into the hotels most basic offering in this video from our YouTube Channel.
Important gear still sitting back at the modhop Travel Cave in NYC meant there’s no video from our visit to The Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, so we’ve got pics. The upgrade is to a deluxe room on the 11th floor of the hotel, recently remodeled and reopened the week of our […]

It turns out we didn’t find them to be uncomfortable at all, although it could be imagined that someone “of size” might feel the mechanics […]
How months-old news of a new Cathay Pacific Newark (EWR) – Hong Kong (HKG) route slipped by us is a mystery… but it did. So as a service to those who’s heads are also victims of a very low cloud ceiling, here’s the info along with links to galleries, reviews […]
