Missnegril, sunray, Marko, Ktans, Mr. Twister, Sweetsue…Thank you all for sharing your thoughts. I really appreciate each comment.

I don’t look to be catered to. I don’t “need” AC if the place has a good ceiling fan or I can be refreshed by a sweet cross breeze. I’m not really picky about amenities either as long as the place is clean & as Sweetsue stated, safe in regards to a solo traveler. But vibe…well that is a must. I’ve stayed at places where I didn’t feel welcomed at all. It wasn’t a personal thing; it was just the way the place operated and the staff being of the same business personality. When I smile and say good morning, I expect the same in return. I like it when I see folks stating that a certain place gives them that "feel at home" vibe.

Ktans, I’m sure you will have an enjoyable stay.
