Historical Traveler Reviews 1863 Inn of Gettysburg
Pet Friendly Means Every Room!!
The rooms in the front are subject to a lot of street noise and it is very hard to sleep with all the traffic. We ask to move to the back and they found another room. I could smell something in the room but thought it was coming from the street.
We were not aware untill check out the next day that all rooms are availably for pets. Our understanding in the past was that some rooms are available for pets the same as smoking and non smoking. We were informed that this is not the case in this motel.
We were also told that they had more problems with soccer players then dogs.
I would not have selected this motel at the rate $118.00 per night, had I understood their policy on pets. I enjoy pets and I have pets but I do not sleep in the same room with them.
I think this policy needs to be clearer to all guest up front.
Great Location , Great Hotel!
My daughter and I just returned from our first trip to Gettysburg yesterday. We spent 4 days there. After careful research and planning for our little trip I had made reservations for another hotel in the area. {But that is another story in itself !!} After things did not work out at the other motel we were in a serious BIND to find another place to stay.
I remember that ALOT of the hotels/motels were booked up solid during our stay on the internet.
Thank goodness the first place I stopped happened to be the "Holiday Inn Battlefield". They were more than kind and considerate of our bad circumstances, and we were in luck, because they had one room left. Right across from the pool! My daughter really appreciated this.
Now you are definitely paying for the location. It is central to everything, we walked to dinner all 3 nights we were there. We walked to the little shops, and attractions, and we were right across the street from a "Rita's Ice Cream" stand. You are right next door to the battlefield, and cemetary. The hotel is right next door to the Jenny Wade house/musuem, and they offer Ghost Walks.
Now for the actual hotel itself, I have no complaints about the rooms at all. Everything was very clean, the pool area was immaculate. But for the restaurant and food. There is no continental breakfast offered, and breakfast got to be a little bit expensive every morning. Not alot of selections offered for dinner or their breakfast. Did not care for their dinner though!!!!
Now I would definitely stay here again. Maybe in the off-season when the rates are not as high. Cannot complain!!
Terrific hotel for families!
I was pleasantly surprised with the conditions of this hotel in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. First of all, we used accumulated points for these rooms and we had absolutely no problem at all doing this! A nice thing indeed! With 6 family members (2 adults and 4 boys), we needed 2 rooms and they were spacious, clean, and conveniently adjoining. The pool was clean and large. The restaurant was clean, ample portions of food, kids-eat-free promotion was terrific, and the service was great. Ask for a top-floor room with a view over Gettysburg and you'll get to see a great sunset. The only downside is the street noise, but for a Friday night it really wasn't too bad. The location is next to the Jennie Wade House (small museum and gift shop), on Baltimore Street with a number of cute shops and souvenir stores nearby. I would not only stay in this particular hotel again, I would recommend it to any of my friends who were visiting Gettysburg with ther families!
Not worth it for the money!
This hotel has clean rooms and nice staff. It is in a prime location to everything and the pool was very clean and very well maintained. However, we paid $128.00 a night and got very little in return other than a basic room. The "complimentary" paper was actually a charge to the room unless you specified that you didn't want it. There was no continental breakfast. No one offered to help us with our luggage when we arrived. Upon checkout there were other customers in line with a list of complaints that we somehow avoided. You should investigate the numerous bed and breakfast houses around this same area which we found out later were actually cheaper in some cases and included a nice breakfast.
Stay here frequently
This is a nice hotel...it's that simple. The staff is friendly and helpful; the rooms large and clean, pretty typical though of this type of hotel. When there isn't a special event happening in town, the rates are good, but oh, do they fly up when there is an event. Still, it is right in town, and you can easily walk to the cemetery and part of the battlefield. Keep in mind, the whole town is a battlefield! I recommend this hotel, esp for the convenient location. We've stayed there perhaps four times now, and will stay there again.
Oh, except for breakfast, we've never eaten there. And the breakfasts are no great shakes. Not bad, but not special. Go across the street to THE AVENUE for great cheap food.
Very nice place!
Actually, I originally intended to stay at another hotel outside of town during my overnight stay. But, having been in Gettysburg many times without walking around the city itself, I changed my mind. And, I am glad I did.
The hotel is a very nice place and has probably gone through some recent renovation. The room and bathroom were very sizable and the bed was really soft and clean. The hotel staff was one of the best I've met, too - they even called me to see whether the room was ok. The only real problem I had was the lack of television stations, although it did have Starz (a minor problem, but one nonetheless).
It is nicely located on historic Baltimore Street, where many interpretive signs recall the actions of the townspeople during the battle. It added a nice touch.
Beautiful, but noisy -- and staff couldn't care less
We had only one night in Gettysburg, stopping on our way from our home in Lake Placid to visit my parents in central Tennessee. The Holiday Inn room was beautiful, truly everything we could have wanted it to be. The construction of the building, however, must have been faulty, because it was literally the NOISIEST overnight stay I've ever had anywhere in the world -- and I've travelled in East Africa, Western Europe, and all over North America ever since I was a kid. When I checked us out of the motel the next morning, bleary-eyed and looking at an 8-hour drive that day, I mentioned how noisy it was and suggested that, as an act of goodwill, the motel might want to make some kind of gesture to make it up to us. The desk staff was extremely rude, saying, "It's not our fault. We've already got your credit card number, so that's too bad." Think twice before reserving a room here. Then think twice again.
Was a good room except
We were in the annex building in a suite. The room was great..nice and clean. The only thing I did not like is that the head of the bed was against the wall that we shared with the next tentant so we heard everything they said, listened to on the tv, and every time they went to the bathroom and used water. If you are someone like me who is a lite sleeper this place may not be best place to stay.
Awesome trip
Myself and my daughter spent thanksgiving weekend at the Holiday Inn.
It was awesome from the very helpful front desk staff to the house keeping staff. It is neat, clean and safe. The location is perfect, easy stroll to many attractions or a quick drive to the battlefields.
Excellent experience
Stayed here Sat August 9th for the 140th reenactment. They must have just completed renovations as everything seemed brand new. Nice clean spotless room. Nice restaurant. Convenient to everything. Efficient staff despite the fact that the entire own was packed with people.
Would definitely return again.

On Tuesday, the NAACP unanimously passed a resolution supporting a $15 minimum wage.
Partial text of the resolution is below.
WHEREAS, the promotion of economic justice for all is a cornerstone of the NAACP's mission, and the organization has steadfastly supported efforts to obtain a living wage for all working people, including endorsement of the Fair Minimum Wage Act of 2013 and the Executive Order mandating that federal contractors raise their minimum wage to $10.10 an hour; and
WHEREAS, the struggles of working people of color to win just compensation, equal treatment, and the right to form a union without retaliation have long been essential to the advancement of people of color; and
WHEREAS, the four million fast food workers are the largest group of minimum wage workers in the United States, with workers of color disproportionately represented and especially concentrated in the lowest paying jobs; where only ten percent of workers of color hold management positions compared with almost half of the white men who work in fast food industry, further perpetuating the racial wage gap; and ...
… THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People fully support the movement of fast food workers to win a living wage and the right to form a union without retaliation and will stand with workers, and take necessary action to build a better and more equal future for all workers."

Police stand-off with student shuts down Mo. campus
The Associated Press
The man, described as a graduate student depressed about his grades, also claimed to have anthrax, according to police. School officials said "possible bomb materials" were found when he was taken into custody.
Twenty-three people were sent through a decontamination process Tuesday morning outside the university's civil engineering building, where a police standoff with the student had started around 2:30 a.m.
Acting Police Chief Mark Kearse said that when police arrived the student was holding a knife and that he held up a bag and said: "This is a bomb." He also claimed to have anthrax.
Police used a stun gun to subdue him and found a note in which the student threatened to destroy the building, Kearse said.
Mayor William Jenks and Kearse said the student had been distraught over his grades, which may have led to the incident. Jenks said the student "had problems and was depressed."
The 5,850-student technological research and engineering campus in south-central Missouri was shut down during the incident and classes were canceled for the day while officers investigated. The Fort Leonard Wood Explosive Operations Division was investigating the possibility that a bomb may be in the building.
"We have no hard evidence that there's anything wrong in the building but we simply can't take a chance," Jenks said. "We're taking a very cautious approach."
Those exposed to the powder included a faculty member in whose lab the graduate student was found and eight students working nearby, said campus spokeswoman Mary Helen Stoltz. The remaining people exposed to the powder were emergency personnel who responded to the scene, she said. It wasn't yet clear what the substance was.
Stoltz reiterated Kearse's belief that the student was "using the threat of terror to get attention."
"We believe the situation is completely under control," she said. "For now everybody's safe."

Great experience, highly recommend
Loved the location, the apartment and especially the cat :) We also ordered a breakfast, which was the best we had in Latvia. A nice, calm location with very friendly people. We had everything we needed. Thank you!
The host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
We were in Riga for 10 days and were satisfied with the apartment. The location is convenient - close to the trainstation (direct trains if you want to visit Sigulda or Jurmala), the Old City, supermarket, cinema, shopping mall, etc, which we really liked! The apartment itself was clean with a comfortable bed and had a washing machine. Small disadvantages can be: It's on the third floor (not a problem for us, but you have to walk up the stairs and the apartment is a bit warm on warm days), the ceiling is very low in some places and the kitchen does have pans, but not the best, and has a low ceiling and only 2 stoves so we didn't like to cook (but we were on holiday, so who likes to cook anyway... ;) ). The service from Vita and her husband was excellent: A taxi was already waiting for us at the airport, so was her husband in the apartment. Communicating was easy and quick, they were very friendly. We recommend this apartment if you are looking for a well priced, convenient located, spacious and clean apartment. We had a great holiday here!
Sehr nette und zuvorkommende Abwicklung der Buchung und unkompliziertes Check In! Hat alles super geklappt. Die Unterkunft fand ich wie im Inserat beschrieben vor, sogar noch etwas grösser wie erwartet. :-) Wichtig zu beachten, das Appartement befindet sich im Untergeschoss/Keller, was aber auf den Bildern/ der Beschreibung aber schon ersichtlich ist. Trotz Sommer war es somit sehr kühl und hat etwas nach Keller gerochen, nach jeder Rückkehr von draussen. Dies war aber zu erwarten und wurde von der tollen Lage und dem netten Kontakt gleich wieder aufgewiegelt. Die Nachbarschaft ist genial, massig Auswahl an Restaurants, Bars, Einkauf, Kino, Theater usw. Die Altstadt Rigas ist gut zu Fuss zu erreichen, zieht sich aber doch etwas hin... Ich persönlich bin die Strecke gerne gelaufen, es gibt aber auch Bus/Tramverbindungen welche einem ins alte Zentrum bringen sollte einem dies nicht zusagen. Übergreifend zu sagen; gerne wieder :-)
Vita is pretty friendly and nice person! Apartments was absolutely clean and veey cute! Thank you alot, Vita, for such nice vacations in Riga!
We had such a wonderful time at Vaira and Aldis's place in the country. Their house is in a lovely location near a lazy river, forests, and fields of wildflowers. Vaira and Aldis were welcoming hosts, and their pets were awesome companions during our stay. I enjoyed watching their small herd of sheep wander about! We also booked dinner, and that I have to mention--wow! It was such a treat, and they gladly accommodated my vegetarianism. Vaira made us an outstanding spread--we're still talking about it a week later.
We had a great stay here - amazing three course meal, cycle ride at sunset, sauna in the separate building and very relaxing time in the huge garden. The self-contained flat is well catered for - we could put our freezer stuff in the owner's fridge for the next day. It looked lovely inside with authentic design. The owners were lovely people and even were so kind to remove the ticks from the hike! All in all they went out of their way to host us. We enjoyed getting to know them during our short stay, sadly we had to leave the next day already!
What an unexpected surprise this stay was! We had the most delightful time ,spa,wonderful food and a very cosy and charming wee unit to sleep in. The family are most welcoming and the instructions of location where spot on, thanks, Louise .(Australia)
Хорошая квартира, оправдала все ожидания. Удобно расположена: 15 минут пешком от вокзалов, 10 минут до исторического центра Риги, вокруг множество кафе, баров, кальянных. Есть все необходимое для проживания. Для компании из 2-4 человек в самый раз.

A really interesting and intelligent couple from Latvia. I am now well up to date on the population and main exports of Latvia which i found very interesting. On top of this they are very easy to please, positive people who are a pleasure to be around. Great guests !!!
It was a great pleasure for me to meet Vita and Janis. Although we didn't have much time together, the conversations we shared were rather interesting and they love to discover new things on whats around them, having a great will to know the country's traditions and culture. They left everthing very tidy, it seamed like they hadn't stayed at my house!!! So perfect friendly and respectuful guests to any hosts. Thank you a lot for meeting you. Maria
Ha sido muy agradable compartir la estancia con ellos y muy limpios me han dejado la habitacion casi echa comprendo totalmente su inquietud por el ruido pero tenéis que tener en cuenta que estamos en pleno centro del barrio gótico de Barcelona pero el piso cuenta con habitaciones en el interior donde no de escucha el ruido de la calle Excelente huespedes Alicia
Vita, Janis and their kid were ecxellent guests, very calm, considerate and polite. You hardly could notice that there is someone around. I can recommend them to anyone!
It was nice to have you staying at our appartment as a first airbnb-guest. Now I know what to expect and what to add to my own appartement. During the midsummer we saw a small hedgehog, as in the present you gave to us.
Great calm and quiet family. I hope they enjoyed Tallinn and will continue to enjoy their trip to north.

What is the fastest way to learn Chinese ?
Hello my friends! What is the fastest way to learn Chinese ?
Chinese is not a language you can learn quickly!! Look at the writing system for a start. You can't rely on spellings, there are no spellings, Chinese is written using characters. You need to learn to read and write thousands of them to obtain fluency in reading and writing. Then look at how it is spoken. Chinese is a tonal language. You must remember every characters tone and try not to forget tone change rules when you talk. You can't skip tones in Chinese, they are too important. I always worry when people say 'what's the fastest way to learn a language?'. What ever happened to 'what is the best way to learn a language?'. Shortcuts, shortcuts, shortcuts, that's all people want now. Still good luck with learning Chinese. I have been learning 6 years now, have a long way to go before I'm close to fluent, but it is a fascinating language and great fun to study.
Thanks Beth ! That was helpful ! And I hope I can be a good Chinese speaker in the future to communicate with my friends in Chinese ! Thanks again
Beth makes some good points, but I see you asked for quickest, not quick. (1) Focus: Know what you want it for. (to be cool?, to communicate? to pass as a native?) . I was first interested in the characters, So I learned a little & did calligraphy courses. Then I wanted to holiday, so I wanted oral. Spoken Chinese from podcasts worked well for me. Lots of practice listening & speaking. . (2) Find encouraging things: Chat online, QQ, Qtalk, watch movies (with subtitles), whatever gets you a buzz of improving. Join classes. QTalk has some excellent classes. (3) pay for it: I've met some really good tutors. I got distracted & never built much vocab. Keeping up a regular programme, book course, or tutor will give you on track for building vocab. Chinese for travel is not so difficult: (a) Chinese are mostly friendly & many will be happy to help you, just for the chance to chat. (b) Many Chinese people are incredibly tolerant of accent. They have so many dialects, that they hear. Mess up the sounds & sometimes tones & they will likely work it out with you. . As Beth says, tones are important. What I did was I put Chinese conversation & podcasts in the car. Every time I went places, I listened. After a while I stopped hearing English syllables & started hearing Chinese sounds with tones. Songs don't have cl;ear tones: not as good. . Hope it helps.
Brilliant idea :)
That was also helpful so thank you so much !
Well, I know a way in which you can learn to SPEAK the language in 10 ten days. It is a language learning system called Pimsleur, named after the language scientist who made it. I know this seems a bit unbelieveable {I haven't tried it myself}, so let me explain. Pimsleur constantly studied the language learning center of the brain, and the his principle is this: a baby doesn't learn a language by studying flashcards and what not. No, a baby learns a language by hearing it used by the people around him/her. The baby does this even though its brain isn't fully developed. Applying this principle to someone whose brain is more developed, that person can learn the language in a shorter amount of time than the baby {ten days}. If you get Pimsleur, you'll basically listen to the language you want to learn for a certain period of time, every day, for ten days. Needless to say, the Pimsleur language leaning system will not be able to teach you the written form of the language,and you'll still have to memorize a good chunk of characters and their pinyin counterparts in order to write, but at least your work will be cut in half.
Make friends with Chinese,language environment is the most important......I'm a Chinese.你愿意和我交朋友吗~哈哈
Speak Chinese as often as you can. Find a teacher to help you, because teachers are experienced in learning and teaching a language.

Just curious to know if anybody has been dx with CCSVI and NOT have
symptoms of chronic fatigue..? Wife was dx with ms last June and has
no symptoms of fatigue and is currently in remission. So far she has not
had any relapses since dx.
This coming Monday were off to the Hubbard Foundation for a full
evaluation and I'm really curious to see what they find.

Mike Patton of TitanInsider.com believes there's a chance that the Tennessee Titans could end up deciding at some point to move on from wide receiver Kenny Britt with all his off the field problems and his inability to stay healthy.
"Don't be surprised if the Titans begin getting plans together to move on with or without Britt," wrote Patton. "The decision is up to Britt if he is able to get it together. And the other decision is up to the Titans as to if they want to continue to believe that Britt will get it together off the field and produce on it.
"The Titans are not likely to cut Britt over his latest slip-up. Too many rival teams would be lined up to take a low-risk shot on high-talent receiver if they did. But you can bet the Titans' front office is keeping score on whether or not to extend Britt's contract after the 2013 season. And last week, just put another big mark in the minus column."
It looks like if Britt has a hard time staying healthy and can't stay away from trouble, he could end being unemployed.

Did you post them on Instagram with a set hashtag? I'd love to see some of the resulting selfies.
You two are legends, congrats!
Generally 72 hours though we are currently back logged. Should be less than a week (unless we have any issues with the submission.)
Since the "five" in "high five" represents fingers, the notion of a "one-finger high five" seems inaccurate. Thoughts on adjusting title to "Most Tandem Finger Taps in 20 Seconds"?
Cool video, but is the phone actually IN the balloon? Feels more like an optical illusion than a world record.
