Ollanna11 Yuck, tell him to stop smearing his saliva all over you. You need to keep your distance because men get the wrong idea about you. I know he's old but perverts come in all shapes and sizes.

Ollanna11 There is nothing wrong with the idea of owning your time. After all freedom is your natural birthright. I know that society may tell you otherwise. I think the happiest people may attribute it to their freedom, partly. I also try to manage my budget monthly...

Ollanna11 I admit the review can be confusing. I believe usually people are honest about their experience. You always have a few bad reviews. I lean towards hotels with mostly positive feedback. Also price and location are deciding factors for me.
