Oracle: An Old-Line Growth Strategy?
Charles King, principal analyst with Pund-IT, told eWEEK he agrees in general, but with a couple of caveats.
"To my mind, Oracle's efforts reflect old line thinking of a sort -- with the company owning or having its fingers on every piece of the business datacenter infrastructure and services chain, including hardware, software, middleware and services," King said. "In a sense, what Ellison is envisioning hasn't been previously accomplished; virtually every major IT vendor partners with someone.
"In LarryWorld, partners are relegated to developers who build on Oracle's platform. Cisco is approaching the future in a much more collaborative way, working closely with partners including EMC, VMware, NetApp and others. In fact, the company's Unified Computing concept is broad enough that most any vendor of storage x86 servers (though Cisco is, of course, planning their own offerings) could play a part."
Dave Vellante, an analyst with Wikibon, told eWEEK that he agrees that Oracle and Cisco are on similar tracks -- not parallel, but very similar.
"Here's the biggest similarity in my view: The IT business is becoming an oligopoly [a market form in which a market or industry is dominated by a small number of sellers] where IBM, HP, Cisco, Oracle and Microsoft really rule," Vellante said. "Any move that any one of these vendors makes will have ripple effects throughout the industry.
"You can make a case that Dell and EMC/VMware are on that list, but these five are the big dogs with $100 billion revenues and/or market valuations. The data center stacks are integrating, and big companies are aggressively acquiring to integrate stacks because they can't innovate (in house) fast enough."
Cisco has quite an appetite for acquisitions, and clearly that's always been part of its growth strategy, Vellante said. "Cisco also wants/needs to diversify; Oracle, on the other hand, sort of fell into this position which in my view occurred as a defensive play," Vellante said.
"Specifically, there was no way Oracle was going to let Java get into the hands of IBM or any other competitor, because Oracle software is developed in Java," Vellante said. "Ellison has always seen the value of integrated hardware and software (e.g. Apple), and I think saw this as an opportunity to continue to play with the big guns in the industry."
Is this potential IT oligopoly good or bad for business overall?
"In some respects, it marks the beginning of a long, slow consolidation period," Vellante said. "I think it can be bad for innovation, but good for stability. Customers like stability, so that's good, but growth requires innovation."

I stretch out my arms,
My fingers flexed,
Reaching for something,
Something beyond
Come reach with me
We can reach for the stars,
Touch the moon if we want
Together we can accomplish
More than we ever dreamed
Together we can do the amazing:
The things people say
"Oh that's impossible"
Nothing is impossible
With the power of two
Everything is within our grasp
Fear is dissolved,
Worry is gone
Weakness is a thing of the past
Come reach with me
And we will make the world
A better place.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
Great experience. We had a great view of downtown. Pool closed too early. Parking too expensive.
The rooftop pool was an amazing feature. The pool was a blessed relief after a hot, muggy day. It was also in a central location downtown. Plenty of restaurant options nearby - although the hotel restaurant - Texas Spice - was a nice option as well. The work out facility was up to date with amazing views of the city. Certainly worth while.
pet fee was a little high
Being greeted with champagne Live band in the lobby Clean and comfortable room Staff were friendly and professional
We loved the room , restaurants and felt it was a good value for amenities We called to make reservations to the Texas Spice & got no answer. Front desk tried and told us restaurant was booked. Called restaurant 10 min later. They answered and got us in at our requested time. Restaurant was half full. So communication breakdown. But it all worked out
The staff was very helpful. The Texas Spice and Box Office Staff were exceptional. The food at Texas Spice was great. The view was awesome. The beds comfortable. My daughter has stayed there several times before, and the price was atleast $100.00 a night cheaper than what I paid. We were also charged for wifi and self parking was very expensive. We stayed 2 nights, and after the cleaning people had been in our room, the sink handles had not been wiped down. For the price of our stay not sure we got the quality. Not sure we will come back.
The spa services were exceptional. Bob's chop house was delicious and convenient for my husband and I to celebrate. Our room was ready and clean the three days we stayed. The only complaint was that we thought there was a mini microwave and there wasn't. Other than that we were fine.
We enjoyed our stay at Omni in Dallas. Room is clean, bed is comfortable, pool is awesome and the restaurant "Texas Spice" is really nice. We recommend this hotel for families looking for luxurious place to stay in Dallas. None
Vary nice lobby/public area and the room was vary cleen beautifully decorated The staff was horrible! The bellmen left one of my bags in the room and when I call to see if they have it. The front dest gave me the runaround and I wound up speaking to 6 people in different departments all don't know what happend to my bag. The staff at this hotle was the unhelpful and rude. There are other great hotels in the area I suggest you find one of them.
Size of room Many large groups that were very loud and partying.
Luxurious rooms, very nice spacious bathroom.
The pillows and bed were worth every single penny. Getting ready for a night out with my husband and being able to watch tv in the bathroom was a luxury I will not soon forget. Breathtaking view! We requested a quiet room but there was a convention with young teenagers staying there and they were a bit unruly and loud.
View was awesome! Staff was really nice and helpful. Definitely will be stay here again when the chance comes up Nothing was wrong
Very nice hotel, with excellent meeting facilities. Very convenient to West End nightlife and dining. Good food. Easy and cheap access to airport via rail (DART or TRE). The train is a little noisy, even on the opposite site of the building.
Super pet friendly. They welcomed my dog with a hyatt dog bed and dog dish for her and also gave us two treats that she enjoyed. However, there is a pet depost of $100 that's non-refundable
My entire experience was weird. When we first arrived, we wanted to unload our car and I got yelled at like I was a child. Literally yelled at. I had to be firm back in order to get direction as to what te he'll I was supposed to do. Then, upon check in, I was informed that for our two cars, self park was $40. I had no idea it would be so much. I was extremely unhappy but tried to remain optimistic. I purposefully found a hotel with a Pool per request of our group. The pool is a sick hilarious joke. It's the size of a van. It was ridiculous. It was also completely full because of the 10 whole people who were in it. Left the hotel an figured out they overcharged me. Called them and they "took care of it". Well they isn't it still is not reconciled in my account. Over charged, expensive parking, rude parking dude, misleading pool size.
I loved the location. Friday nights dinner at five-sixty was wonder full and the view amazing. Saturday morning we awoke and took a stroll through downtown dallas. And the shops on the 1st level were convenient. So last weekends stay was all for fiancee....Shes been really stressed lately and i wanted to give her a night to remember.First off partially my fault, but i booked on prom weekend so parking was horrible. I actually ended up parking across the street from Reunion Tower. Then greeted at the front desk i find that they've stuck me into a double queen handicap room, not ok. After speaking with the young lady down stairs she apologizes and gives me a different room. Again its a double queen not the single room. I had booked. Then when i go to wash up before dinner at the five-sixty, the drain to the sink was clogged and water poured on to the floor. Kids at the prom were having fun on the balcony, they were laughing, screaming and enjoying theyre night. Unfortunately for us, we were located right above...
All good
A remarkable hotel at the epicenter of Dallas. The hotel has immediate access to all local Dart rail trains (leading everywhere), the T (taking you to Fort Worth) and Amtrak with straight connections to Chicago and Los Angeles. A memorable vacation starts with 1 or 2 nights here and then a surprise trip either on Amtrak or Dart out to DFW airport. The atrium is amazing with views of Reunion tower and the famed 560 Wolfgang Puck's restaurant. Make your reservations at least 2-3 weeks out to get an available time slot for a memorable night viewing downtown Dallas from 3/4 of mile away and 560 feet up in the air. Room was spacious and immaculate and view of downtown, rail station, Omni was incredible. Request a view of downtown when you check in. Valet parking is a little pricey so I opted for self pay parking at the Amtrak station ($6 for 12 hours)
Everything else. Overpriced compared to facility. The room could have been cleaner. The entrance location is a bit tricky for pedestrians. Not my best hotel experience.
Parlor rooms are pull out beds not a actual bed, Kayak did not define that
The room was clean enough. Valet is a joke. Staff is rude. Not pet friendly at all. Terrible location, hard to access. Expect long waits for any service needed and fees that aren't shown online. Make sure to really check your bill upon leaving. Ours was screwy. Couldn't complete a quick check-out, because we had to go to the desk to get it fixed, which took forever.
Contemporary rooms with great staff. Highly satisfied.
Friendly staff, beautiful location and near everything. PARKING
We were supposed to have a room with two queen-size beds and instead we had two full-size. was very hard for four people to sleep in two full-sized beds.
I had a great stay. My visit was exactly as I expected. The hotel shuttle pick up from Love Field was a unique benefit.
The front desk and concierge was very polite and friendly. The entrance to the hotel is beautiful! The bed was very comfortable and the balcony was nice. The room was in need of a remodel. Paint and color on the walls were out of date. There were several spots that have been patched over. The bar staff wasn't very knowledgable in making drinks or friendly. She seemed preoccupied with one customer the hour I was there.
The location was nice in that is was close to many other places downtown within walking distance. Although the immediate area didn't give us a fully safe feeling. The price we paid for the hotel was fair. The smell of the hallway was bad. It seems like they never cleaned or replaced the carpet ever. The location also looked a little shady as we were walking to the hotel.
Location is great, Dallas World Aquarium is within walking distance so you do save on parking. The hotel stay was ok, the room had a microwave and a fridge which I wasn't expecting so that was nice. You basically get what you pay for. The hotel is downtown and I checked other downtown hotel rates and they were quite expensive so settled on this. It's not a luxury hotel per say so plan to spend some time exploring the downtown because that way you get a good value out of your hotel stay.
The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The room, though somewhat older, was clean and the bed was reasonably comfortable. Water pressure on our floor (15) was good, but a friend staying on another floor (18) said that it was barely a trickle. Although we didn't use the pool, its location on the ninth floor was nice. Downtown Dallas, like downtown of other large, Texas cities (e.g., Houston) is just not a great location. We arrived on a Sunday, and very little was open. We walked several blocks to find dining options other than Subway, McDonald's or 7-Eleven. The hotel is not far from a Greyhound station and several urban parks, so there were often groups of people hanging around near the hotel that made the place seem a bit unsafe. The hotel is on the older side, and could stand to be upgraded a bit.
The location is the reason I booked this hotel. Room smelled like wet mildewed gym socks. The bed was beyond uncomfortable. The toilet paper even felt like it was from the solitary confinement section of Riker's Island! We were forced to have our room keys re-magnetized 7 times in two days. I am very conscious not to let my cell phone come in contact with the keys etc, but it was a habitual problem. I have never experienced that in all the many places I have stayed in the past. The front desk staff was disinterested and going through the motions every time they were approached. Warm hospitality is not their strong suit. I really discourage this hotel when staying downtown. Go somewhere else.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The pool area was rundown. furniture broken and old. did not like that after a certain hour, the hotel bar turns into a nightclub with a $10 entrance. we just wanted to go have a drink at the hotel bar and it went from a nice hotel bar earlier in the day to a cheeky vegas nightclub packed with 20 somethings. We just wanted to go from our room to have a cocktail, not the gross club!
Location pretty much Door don't seal right main window dirty shower too short or too low,also breakfast too expensive for what you offer
It was close to the 6th floor museum Noises, lots of people coming in and out because there was a big party in the club located inside. Relaxing was impossible.
Good stay overall! One complaint was told via email and booking that the room included breakfast even the server with breakfast told me it was included but somehow I was charged anyway. Ill just make sure to be mindful the next time.
Shower head was much to short for a tall person. I kept hitting my head on the spout which was both painful and disgusting.
TV kept loosing signal, staff question were not concrete and contradicted each other. The climate control wasn't working. Along with the facilities feeling humid n hot. Very uncomfortable especially with the weather of above 104.
Asian Art They put us in the middle of a high school cheerleading convention. Didnt sleep one night with teenage girls running wild throughout the hallways at all hours. Management did NOTHING to control them. Management offered no apologie or follow up. I will NEVER stay at a Hilton again!
Size of the room There was only one front desk representative at both front desks at 6:30 pm. I needed another key a was quite a wait. The parking is a total pain for $19, the gate readers do not work well. There was only one small trash can under the desk and none in the bathroom. And there was a creepy crawling visitor in the shower on the 20th floor.
Big facility with things to do. Basketball court was closed at 8pm. Rooms were dated
The only pluses: nice beds, great sheets and pillows, room was very clean. For this room costing me $400/night it was a fairly poor value. The bathroom was so small that I had to climb over the toilet to get in and out of the shower. No balcony, no sitting room, the plumbing gurgled and rattled every time anyone used it nearby, and I could hear everything going on in the adjacent room. The hotel is sooooo huge and no signs or directories. People were constantly lost and asking each other for directions everywhere I went (I don't get why they don't have signs in TX, not specific to the hotel alone, very few signs on the roads too). So basically the room was a confort inn with a hilton price tag. Nothing complimentary or included, not worth the money. Stay at the Sheraton across the street.
The rooms were spacious and clean and the staff was very friendly. It was very easy to check in and out. The parking was very easy, and I was able to park close to the entrance. The parking was very expensive. Normally I pay nothing to park at other hotels, but I have paid up to $15 for parking a day. ($3 Anatole was $22 a day and the parking lot was almost empty.
I did not like the fact that the attendants behind the counters did not inform us about the breakfast at the lounge especially after we paid for the executive room which included the breakfast. We had to go to the other restaurant in the atrium to eat and pay... The attendants in the hotel are not good.
Everything was excellent.. Maintenance man knocked on our door at 9:30 to clean AC filter. We had Do Not Disturb sign on the door but he still knocked on the door. Kept knocking few times and woke me up.
Check-in service, fairly affordable parking for the area, & the lobby was beautiful The hotel is an atrium hotel and is extremely large. During my stay there was a prom, a conference, and a wedding hosted by the hotel - it was extremely noisy and crowded. While its very large, its also quite an old hotel. There's one set of elevators for each atrium and the walk to and from the room is really long! Kayak listed it as 4 star and I've generally had a great experience with selected 4 star hotels throughout the country; this one was extremely disappointing.
Customer service was bad. Also not enough staff.
Hotel is very nice. very disappointed at the fact that we had to pay for parking after spending good money to stay overnight. If already paying for a room, should not have to pay extra for parking.
SER steak house was great everything. no continental breakfast, nickel and dime you for everything. rooms were dirty, linens were dirty
Nothing. Upon arrival we were told that all the king bed rooms were taken which we had reserved prior to. Then we walk into the room that wasn't clean. Beer cans strewed everywhere, beds were filthy and trash all in the room. Not only that but the elevators were out of order and we had to climb 8 flights of stairs each time we left the room. Worst stay ever
I liked the location to the trains going through downtown dallas. It is a high-rise hotel so some rooms overlook downtown. Yes, staff unfriendly and would not answer phone calls to front desk after hours of continous attempts went downstairs in pajamas due to the fact that the heater never worked. Maintance came in to room at 2am even though attempts were made beginning at 11pm. And, the heater was never repaired. The safe in room did not work. The reservation made through booking.com 2 days prior to arrival was not there. So after much delay at front desk and another credit card charge was able to go to room with no heater,no staff that would help, and a safe that did not work.
Rooms were nice and clean. 1 out of 4 elevators were working and we all had to walk 30 flights of stairs with all of our luggage. There was no apology or compensation for anything. I understand technically issues happen but we were on the 30th floor and it had been 8 hours.. ridiculous.
Location was good. The hotel had a lot of amenities. The bar staff was not very good. Not friendly at all. Enjoyed the stay but it was not as nice as other Fairmonts where I've stayed.
Courtesy car will take you anywhere in 1 mile radius... BIG plus for us. Staff are super friendly!
The AC couldn't keep up to keep me comfortable.
Great price ,location & service
The facilities have been updated but you can still tell it's a very old hotel. The a/c in our room wasn't great. Would stay there again!
The staff were super. Very helpful and everyone was smiling! I stay at the Fairmont when I am visiting customers for business. Our family trip took us through Dallas and the only hotel I thought of was the Fairmont. My family will definitely visit the Fairmont in the future again. All good! Bartender made great drinks, pool was awesome for my daughter and wife and location was superb for walking to dinner.
The room was very warm and got even warmer in the middle of the night. I complained to the front desk and they said they would send a technician, but the temp never changed by much.
Great service at the bar. Friendly bar staff. Great desk staff in the lobby.
Was willing to remove a faulty charge No hot water, TV didn't work, coffee machine in room did not work either, and a very loud AC
We felt welcomed, respected and valued as if we were family. The hotel is all about making you feel important. It is immaculate, the service was perfect in every respect. The staff made us feel comfortable as though we were both important and yet like we were old friends. Absolutely nothing.
room was great, staff was great live music in bar didn't match the vibe at all. I know its dallas but, its a 5 star hotel with a honky tonk band? and they were really bad.
Super clean super friendly really nice place altogether. Only for those looking for a high end stay in Dallas Almost too nice, everything was fantastic but if you're the type that doesn't like being waited on hand and foot this might not be your place. Nothing is cheap that's for sure.
Liked the staff they were very friendly Gym and spa not up to par
Valet service was excellent and rooms were spacious 2 of our five nights out room was not cleaned. The pool was closed for renovation and we were not aware of this when we made reservations.
Great attention to detail and employees were amazing! The formal bar was under construction. The cowboy bar was not equal to the standard of the hotel.
Bed sheets were a little dirty. Nothing disgusting, but could have been better
Exterior and lobby have a classic vibe. Seemed understaffed in the evening. Front desk girl sounded stressed and overworked and was extremely unhelpful when we mentioned our breakfast order was not picked up the night before. She said it wasn't "her job"...never the words you want to hear as a guest.
This hotel is beautiful! Staff was very nice and helpful!
I prepaid for a room and adolphus sold it. I had to spend the night at a friends place and my card was still charged. Now I have to deal with the refund.
The Adolphus has always been our special hotel. The remodeling that they have done is great.Our room was very spacious and clean. The service, room service and front desk, was impeccable. We love being downtown near restaurants. We had a very relaxing stay at The Adolphus and we will go there again.
I have to brag on Rachel at the front desk! She was such a joy and so accommodating. She had to go through a few hurdles to find our reservations but kept us informed and happy. We were there for a girlfriends birthday and decided to schedule a ghost tour with Kevin. He made it so memorable! Overall the staff was so welcoming and professional. The room we were checked into went above our expectations. Comfy bed, clean and crisp linens, full sized pillows, spacious, equipped with a phone charging station, mini fridge, keurig and a wonderful view of downtown. The price of parking! 4 stars on location since there seemed to be some construction work being done on the roadways. Made it a bit challenging to get in and out with a truck.
The hotel is a grande dame of a bygone era in Texas and US history, and the room could not have been more comfortable. The location for anything in downtown Dallas is great, and it is an easy walk almost anywhere in the downtown vicinity. The room was spacious and large, and for a downtown hotel is very quiet. The bathroom fixtures could use updating.
Big rooms. Beautiful shower. Comfy beds and pillows. Hard to find something bad to say. Overnight parking fees of $28 was a bit ridiculous. The area also gets a bit shady at night.
Updated room and fitness center Shampoo lotion bottles impossible to use. No instructions in room. Charged for incidentals ahead.
The beautiful historic lobby was a perfect first impression The room we stayed in was newly remodeled modern, comfortable, incredibly large with 2 king beds, beautiful, luxurious bathroom and great view of Dallas. We never used our car, everything was close enough to walk but , when we didn't walk, the hotel had a courtesy car with a very pleasant driver to take us to theme farmers market. The choice of restaurants in the hotel were very limited. The choices included a barbeque, cowboy theme, or the French Room, which was beautiful but not casual and comfortable. Very special occasion, dressy type atmosphere.
Beds were very comfortable!!! no self parking, but using the texting valet service was quick and easy. Nothing gluten free available for breakfast except fruit. Gluten free dinner options were great and deliscious!
Good location, The over all conditions of The building is good And nice Housekeeping never Clean my room one day , The Manager in duty reduces USD 50 from The total Of my bill, but this discount does not compensate the inconvenience of this situation.
Our room was a one Queen bed. Room is small but very clean and nice. Bed is great. All staff are excellent. Bartender makes great "Mule" drinks and it is a good atmosphere. Breakfast comes with the room. You get hot scrambled eggs, ham, salsa, onions, mushrooms, breads, oatmeal, etc. Drinks for the evening reception: you get 2 drinks each, house wine which is not good, or domestic beer...hope you like Bud or Miller, not good for me. They have plenty of drinks but you pay for anything else. But the biggest problem is the food. We have eaten at Magnolia before and it was great. This time there is nothing good to say except for those who served us, excellent service. I sent my $29 rib eye back when it was well done instead of med. rare. Came back bloody pulp rare. I gave up. The spaghetti with veal meatball sounds great on paper and has no taste in reality. Given the other places around to eat, do not eat here as the kitchen has taken a dive.
Great location. Easy access. Nice large room. Included breakfast.
Professional and friendly service, excellent breakfast, good Wi-Fi connection, very nice decor, convenient location in the downtown . Our room had 2 queen beds with good mattresses. The stuff allowed us to check out one hour late and then let us sit in the lobby for an hour in the evening.
Location Breakfast was great The beds are a Queen size, at best, and so uncomfortable! Mattresses are in desperate need of updating. If a comfortable nights sleep is important to you, I would not recommend.
-free breakfast, location, free wifi, and beautiful building with an excellent view. Manager Gina (spelling?) was very sweet and helpful We checked in for New Year's Eve and specifically requested a room with a view of fireworks. The first room had no view, I had to pay for an upgraded room after going back downstairs. The room we got next was a disaster. Stains on the couches, dirty carpets, chair that was breaking, and fraying towels. The MOD came up to the room, looked at everything, apologized and moved us to yet another room. She was lovely and sent up a bottle of champagne but I would rather not have had to deal with switching rooms which led to us being very late for our dinner reservation. In short- rooms are not well maintained (last room had staples on the floor), only valet parking, SLOW elevators and front desk staff that don't seem to actually care.
Friendly staff. Elevator took too long.
Great location, fre bud light draft from 5:30-6:30, free hot breakfast buffet (impressive spread on the weekends). Cool retro boutique vibe. Weird smell in lobby, like cleaning agent masked with perfume. No dresser in our room to stash clothes, just a closet.
Good gym. Polite service. Clean. Lots of restaurants and bars around. Shuttle service provided. No late night services and extra amenities.
Came here for a birthday, everything was wonderful Water pressure in shower was a bit lacking.
Nice size room, location, complimentary bar & breakfast, & shuttle. Housekeeping was TERRIBLE. We stayed 3 nights & they only made the bed every day. They never cleaned the bathroom, 2 of the 3 nights they didn't even replace our towels. I had to track down housekeeping to ask for some. They didn't vacuum or empty the trash. There were only 2 elevators that worked.
The decor of the rooms and the style of converted warehouse to loft was very well executed. The rooftop bar also has a great view of downtown Dallas especially at night. The rooms were very clean and the bed was very comfortable. Onsite parking was also very easy considering proximity to downtown. As nice as the rooms were, we were given a 4th floor room that faced the main street through the Cedars district of Dallas; Lamar St. And that was what really put a damper on our stay. The noise of semi trucks and dump trucks going by with their loud exhaust was enough to wake you up many times during the night. There also were several potholes or bumps in the road that made the dump trucks rattle very loudly. This is not really the hotel's fault but it did sound like the trucks were coming through the room. I would think a brick building would be more sound proof. Perhaps its the old windows and some sort of acoustic film could reduce the noise a little. It is unfortunate because it really is a nice hotel, perhaps a room off the side street or rear of the hotel would be quieter. I really hope they can fix this because its a great location and well executed.
The beds are very comfortable and the view from the roof is amazing The bar upstairs was too expensive and didn't allow us to bring our own drinks to the pool. I wish there was some sort of breakfast provided. The little Keurig coffee machine in our room left grounds in the cup.
Big Rooms. Comfy Beds. Windows Open with Lots of Light. Easy Walk to Downtown. Free Shuttle to Dallas spots. Consistent Staff who knows your name. Restaurants and Bars were exactly what I needed after a long day.
Over all hotel is nice, near the mall. Staff wasn't very friendly .
Ms Cleo was very helpful
Beautiful looking building. Nice looking lobby, bar, and front desk. Good location for shopping. Rooms outdated. Have to pay for parking, internet, breakfast. Short on the number of towels that you get. Tub had mold around it.
We loved our stay! We were iffy on staying there because of the ratings but it was great. Room was very clean. They do have a parking rate but since you are staying at the hotel the do waive it. It is very quiet and peaceful, our 6 month old slept through the night! Would definitely stay there next time we travel to Dallas! The bathroom tiles in the tub need to be fixed. Nothing major.
Area of city. Hotel lobby space Small bathrooms, no courtesy shuttle, no weekend Happy Hour
I wasn't recognized as a gold member until day 3 of my stay. Subsequently was informed I could not receive Executive Lounge access because I did not book through the proper channels, but was told they'd let it "slide". Housekeeping cleaning rags were left in my room.
I enjoyed the breakfast buffet and the lake outside
Nice size room and very friendly staff
The hotel is located across the parkway/tollway from the galleria and is also near a lot of restaurants. Our room was clean and the staff was helpful. Parking at the hotel essentially costs $17 per day ($17 overnight or $28 overnight for valet parking). Otherwise, there are hourly rates available.
The room itself was nice and we did get an upgrade to a suite. The room wasn't totally clean. Dried soda on counter in kitchenette when we arrived-maids didn't even clean it when I left a note! Dried silly string in pictures and ceiling. Broken furniture. Disappointing. None of the staff smiles or even seems to welcome you at all. Plus--had to pay $17/night for parking garage across the street.
Appearsnce - location - very clean The Noise!!!!!! I did not sleep
Pros: friendly staff, good location, punctual valet, nice bar. Cons: dirty bathrooms with dirt in bathtub, used soap bar still in shower, carpet felt dirty, extremely outdated furniture (felt like I was in a cheap Vegas hotel), bug crawled on me during sleeping, no breakfast included, have to pay for Internet and parking.
The Ritz staff is world class! The bellman rocks! Everything was perfect
My 2 daughters and I stayed at the hotel on a very busy Dallas weekend. We were greeted with Sprinkles cupcakes at the reg. desk to celebrate a big football game being played that weekend. The beginning of a great weekend. \n\nThe club level floor was large and worked perfectly for an extra roll-away bed. The bathroom was huge. The club level lounge had superb snacks. We also ate at Fearings on the lobby level. Though difficult to get a reservation on the busy weekend, we camped out hoping for a cancellation and were lucky to nab a table. The food was tremendous -- the chef was previously at the Mansion across town. Expensive, but well worth the price.\n\nThe hotel is only 10 minutes from Northpark Mall, as well as other shopping areas.\n\nOur stay was great. We'll definitely return!\n\n
We stayed on Concierge floor with the Club lounge which includes all the alcohol and light food throughout the day. It is worth the extra money to stay on this floor. We did a package that included a three course meal at Fearings which was the highlight of our evening along with having champagne and chocolate covered strawberries delivered to the room at just the perfect time which was while we were out at the pool. The pool isn't big but the staff at the pool is very attentive if you need anything.
Our stay at the Ritz Carlton in Dallas has been ruined. Everyday, when we go into the club level, we have been appalled by the lack of enforcement of the dress code and the noise level in the club room. For example, no shoes, half naked men and women in bathrobes, men, women, and children in pajamas and dirty socks with no shoes, and today was the icing on the cake which has ruined our stay and will result in our early departure. There are a group of loud, obnoxious, rude, and inconsiderate heathens in the club room watching a football game (3:30pm CST) we asked the attendant to address the noise issue and she instead walked over and told the group that she was sorry to disturb them, but that we had complained and pointed us out. That resulted in them bullying us out of the club level room. We have been staying at Ritz Carlton properties for twenty years and we have never experienced this level of unsatisfactory service. It is unbelievable and unacceptable. Now, instead of staying to celebrate my husband's birthday, we are going home.
I really enjoyed our stay at the Warwick. The rooms are very spacious and clean. We enjoyed eating, listening to music, and having cocktails at The Library Bar. We had breakfast at The Landmark and it was also excellent. Highly recommend! There is one thing I would have changed and that's the way the bed is made. A top sheet was used as a bottom sheet so it completely came off during the night since it was not secured. Other than that everything was wonderful!
room quite and comfy front dest staff could be more attentive and less "rigid"
The atmosphere was perfect for celebrating 25 years of marriage.
High quality furnishings and friendly staff. Was required to use the valet parking and stll had to pay for it. For the cost of the room, parking should be included. The additional parking costs plus valet tips in and out were an unnecessary extra cost.
I left a laptop charger plugged in and called the next morning but the hotel was unable to locate it.
The accommodations and dining were outstanding. The parking fee was excessive.
I was very impressed with this hotel. The room was gorgeous and the staff was very helpful and friendly. I will definitely be staying here again the next time I'm in Dallas!
Staff was very friendly. No water and it was treated like no big deal. They comp a bottle of water for me. Oh boy!
Excellent service. Star treatment. Rooms are very quiet & beautifully appointed w/nice amenities. Amazing beds. Room service! Great atmosphere & location. Didn't like mandatory valet for car (vs. a parking fee or even better, complementary parking). Billed an additional $27 + fees for $31 per night!
Location Room and bathroom were tiny. Bed was 5 feet from door. Bathroom was definitely a one at a time room.
I loved the apartment style look, the living room was separate from the bedroom. Very spacious. I loved alll the mirrors! There was no rush to check out. My view was a bit ugly but that was totally do able.
I found the hotel to be as nice as the pictures and the staff to be friendly and helpful
The entrance, my family and i like the lobby fibe a lot very specious The tub in our room was rusty and dirty and the carpet needs a little TLC. the room we stayed at by the window on top was crack.
Nice rooms and pool, breakfast OK and service and staff very nice. Close to train station - free shuttle service in 5 miles radius No personality about the hotel
Suite with separate bedroom for less than the cost of a regular room at most hotels with the Kayak deal. Nice rooms, nice hotel, clean and well kept. Very satisfied overall. Beds were hard and uncomfortable. We had a room with double beds and they seemed smaller than average, to the point that rather than sharing with my husband, I wound up sharing with our youngest child because the double bed was not big enough to accomodate 2 adults comfortably. Mattress was hard. Had some problems with our restroom facilities: Toilet didn't work right, shower handle was on backwards. Otherwise, everything was wonderful and I would absolutely return for what we paid for this room. Very nicely accommodated my large family for much less than we would have paid elsewhere.
Very nice clean and spacious room. The bathroom was very nice however there was no extractor for the steam from the shower and lighting was very poor. Lightning was also limited in the bedroom of the suite, but good lighting in living area.
The hotel was beautiful,and the rooms were nice and clean.The young lady who checked us in was so pleasant. We were very impressed. We were vey disappointed that the swimming pool wasn't cleaned,especially with it being so hot!
beautiful ...great friendly staff-spectacularly clean
Bring your own towels if you wish to stay here. Poor room service
Very classy place, super clean, not expensive at all for how nice and easy it was to stay here! The staff when checking in wasn't super helpful. When we came back later the staff was awesome. Get that young man off your team or teach him how to talk to guests and you'll be golden!
It has a a good location with a good view of dallas The beds were not comfortable and the TV picture was horrible
We really enjoyed our stay here and the hotel was amazing, as well as the rooms. Definitely reccommend this hotel and will stay here on our next visit to Dallas.
I like how the building looking and most of the inside. This hotel I would say is for the riches. The self parking wasn't free. I'm not going to pay someone to park my vehicle since I'm going to be staying there for one night. Inside the bathroom above the shower it the A/C unit. It appeared that it needed some updating because it looked like a 1 or 2 stars project.
Helpful staff, quality Restaurant a bit on steep side, but staffed by helpful, attentive, professional people
Very friendly staff. Very comfortable bed. I was very satisfied with my stay and would stay there again. Only negative thing was we ordered late night room service and it wasn't the best. We got the Philly steak sandwich.
The staff was brilliant. They really took care of us. When they found out it was my wife's birthday, they brought us a complimentary bottle of wine, amongst other things.
Staff was nice. The room was clean. Beautiful view. Room service was very quick! The valet opened the door for me (driver), did not do anything for my wife (passenger). The rooms seemed to have thin walls, as we heard guest all through the night. There may have been a fraternity group reunion of some sort, and we may have been unfortunately stuck on the same floor as some of them. It hurt our stay to say the least.
Clean rooms, friendly staff, and very spacious walk-in closets. The handle that controlled the water was not working so you would eaither take a cold shower or a burning hot shower.
My girlfriend and I stayed here for one night while I was in town visiting her and we had an amazing time. She lives in Dallas but we took a night in a hotel just for a nice change of scenery and had an experience we will remember forever. The room was spectacular but I have to mention the service first. Our friend at the front desk, Angelina Fiorini, was incredibly pleasant to talk to and helpful. one of the best hotel front desk staff I've talked with in a long time. Even though my girlfriend and I were there for a private night away we were still desighted to have a long conversation with her. After our chat we went up to the room. Angelina gave us a junior suite which was well decorated and filled with quality furniture, a comfy bed and a great bathroom. We decided if we ever live in a house it should feel like this place. Glad we got to stay at the stoneleigh and will definitely come back when we need a comfortable spot in Dallas. There was no fitted sheet on the bed.
Great location in uptown. A nice, modern look. Mandatory $25 valet was unexpected
The hotel it's very nice, elegant, clean close to Ritz Carlton or super high end hotels for 1/2 of the money. Staff it's nice but maybe that's the difference with hotels that charge 500 USD per night.
Nice, comfortable rooms. Spacious. Nice decor, great breakfast place and bar in the hotel. Very nice, helpful staff. Great location.
The location is fantastic. Nobu is inside the hotel, Trulucks just next to the hotel, and Shake Shack in front! So many great restaurants and bars within walking distance. My friends and I scheduled spa treatments. The "spa" is more like a locker room in a basement, complete with outdoor furniture and a tv on the wall with a program going. No soothing music or lounge type chairs. It was not relaxing at all. My friends liked their facials, but I didn't love my massage. For $150 after tax and tip, I expect a lot more. This was probably the worst spa experience for the price that I've ever had.
was impressed with service and location... I didnt like was when we arrived at 5:30 and our rooms werent ready until 6! I paid good miney for this hotel and should not have to wait....on the confirmation it says hotel check in at 3! not 6!!!...what can kayak or crescent do for me? i would love to stay again but that put a big "?" to stay again....
Staff knowledgeable of the area. only 2 elevators
Great service, room was nice, excellent steakhouse..service at steakhouse excellent and host is outstanding and great sense of humor..would come back just bc of him Snack items in lobby coffee shop very overpriced..4 dollars for little bag fruit chews..should be 1.5, chips etc were all overpriced
The hotel largely serves business travelers who are stuck at DFW airport due to problems with flights. For this reason, the hotel serves an important need. However, it is very overpriced. There was a dead roach in my room.
Our flight was canceled and bags lost, and it was after before we got to the hotel. Staff was super helpful to get us some basic items for the night and get us checked in. Great service and super clean rooms!
The hotel had a very efficient check in process. Staff were friendly and welcoming to me checking in alone with two young children. The casual restaurant in the hotel had good food for the price. The room was clean and functional, but some of the touches in structure of the room felt industrial. The extra lock on the door didn't work as well. It was not the right size for the bulb of the locking mechanism.
table with combs, razors, etc for stranded passengers room by elevator
I like that this place was minutes from the airport. They have monitors everywhere telling you flight status. The rooms are spacious, and modern/newly remodeled. Place was affordable... Was only $134/night compared to others near the airport were asking $175-250/night. There isn't any signs at the airport that point you to Hyatt Regency only to Grand Hyatt which are two different places. We flew American Airlines and got off at Terminal D at DFW and the best thing I can advise is walk to Grand Hyatt then make a left to go outside, and the Hyatt service guy will call a Hyatt shuttle to get you to the Regency (takes 5min). Lastly don't order room service late night unless you're willing to dish out $$$. The fine print on the bottom of the menu says they charge you 21% service fee and tax/gratituity, so when the guy comes DO NOT TIP again like we did. They're getting twice the tip.
Free shuttle to and from airport.
Pros- I've come to expect a certain level of cleanliness and comfort with Hyatt, and this location didn't disappoint. The bed was extremely comfortable, I slept like a baby. The A/C was great, the room was sufficiently cool when we wanted to sleep, and warmed up quickly once we turned it off. At about 9am there was a very loud group outside our door, the walls are a bit thin and sound travels easily.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay. Room very clean and comfortable, breakfast was wonderful. Staff helpful.
Efficient staff, all expected amentities available and excellent food options available! Nothing
Good food Bathroom too small, charged for bottle water, too expensive for level of hotel other than airport location
Location is great as it situated within the airport complex. This is ideal if you have an overnight stay to catch a flight the following day. They have free shuttle service to the airport terminal. I have stayed several times and am impressed by the cleanliness of the place and the professionalism of the staff. They also validate parking so when you leave in a car you don't have to pay the auto fee for exiting the airport complex. The signage directing you to the hotel location can be a bit confusing.
Amazingly appointed rooms, amazing decoration, posh furnishings, overall an amazing experience.
Service was great! I continued to have problems with my room key in the elevator.
total quiet
Staff was great Several parties (wedding, birthday, etc) had way too many people in each room and in other parts of hotel. Shouldnt allow but so many people in a room....
The staff knows you well and gives you a very close approach, this way they help you and lot's of times gives you good directions. Friday and Saturday the lobby becomes a Club and sometimes the sound is too loud even in the elevators.
near american airlines center the restaurant too expensive
The Ghostbar! It was hottt! People keep to themselves though. I loved the roof top pool as well but at first it's a little awkward when people are just staring at you when you first come in because it is rather small. A rude girl named Jennifer that works at the desk. She hung up on me without saying at least a thank you. I had called about revising my statement because a pending transaction was showing on my bank card and I wanted clarification. I called her back right away and told her she was very rude.

5 Speed vs 6 speed
5 Attachment(s)
Keep in mind, I'm new...:D
So I read a recent thread talking about the best year of the TJ. Its a win-win. You own a Jeep, its the best year cause its yours!
To not take over a thread, a good point was brought up about the trannys. I have the 6 speed and recently had to ask if most used 2nd gear to start from stops on asphalt, as 1st gear is low and short. Now, coming from fast performance cars, more gears are better (unless all you do is quarter miles)
So is one actually better than the other or is it personal preference? I'll be honest, while I searched for a similar topic, I didn't look at the final gear ratios, tho I know they are different for each model.
daily driving if you drive it well the 6 speed will be more efficient, as you can use the rev band more efficiently.
This thread will tell you all the stock gear ratios for each transmission ever used in TJ's.
I use first gear because I drive a Wrangler not a sports car.
The more gears one has in any vehicle, if used properly, will increase the efficiency of the motor, resulting in better fuel mileage, less wear and tear , etc etc.... I also have read many posts on here where jeep drivers are skipping first gear. They are begging for clutch problems later on.. All standard transmissioned vehicles are designed to engage the transmission and move the vehicle forward or backward at idle rpms.. Taking off in a gear that requires one to throttle up a bit while slipping the clutch out increases wear and tear on all components, especially the clutch.. ;)
I've had both. I like the 6 speed better. It is more "notchy" and is more resistant to go into gear if the shaft speed is not close to the gear you want (as if you coast down for a long time with the clutch in and then pick a gear). I skip 1st gear unless I'm starting off going up hill, in slow traffic, or pulling a trailer. It starts off in 2nd just fine. 2nd gear on my jeep is still lower than the final ratio of 1st gear on my mustang. 33's with the the 5 speed and 3.27s was much worse than 35's with 4.10s and the 6 speed. I love having a real OD gear. I dont normally use it when towing, but it's great when I want to rip 75-80mph down the freeway.
I have a 6 speed and with 33" tires and living in Vermont (all mountains and hills) I rarely get to use 6th gear. If I'm going downhill with a tail wind I can cruise in 6th otherwise it's useless. I don't skip first gear either.
^ no that's why it's useless lol
I have the 6sp and only use 1st when wheelin or pulling my tailer when it is loaded for camping/fishing. It is my daily driver and I start out in 2nd 3rd, 4th and then to 6th for city driving. Only time I use 5th is for towing up a hill. 35's with 4.88's and a 4.0
I have that same setup, if the road is flat or down hill I skip 3rd gear also. 2-4-6 Having a three speed manual is fun, lol.
I have a six speed and my reverse grinds like crazy. I talked to a couple mechanics and they said its normal for 6speed TJs.... Idk if that's true. Other than the reverse I love my 6speed.
If i had my choice, i would always take the one with more gears. Yes, more shifting involved. But as stated, better control over keeping it in the powerband, so better performance and mileage as a result. Sadly 2002 was the newest i could afford at the time so only a 5 speed or an automatic available, but i have not regretted getting the 5 speed one bit.
Granted manufacturers are using better engine management technology these days as well, but both automatics and manuals have more gears than they used say 10 years ago. They pretty much have to with new EPA regulations for minimum mpg's.
I don't think i would get a manual with any more gears though. I love manuals but I think 6 gears is about the most i have the patience to constantly shift through.
The shifter is inside the transmission and that is the problem. Do a search for the NSG370 reverse rebuild. It's been a couple of years since I did the rebuild and I have more info on one of my threads on Jeepforum if I'm allowed to say that here. The 5 speed is a completely different animal than the 6 speed.
Are you having shifting issues in just 2nd, 4th, 6th and Reverse? Your console could be in the way if you have a lift or body lift. Trim your console or the steel around the shifter tunnel or bend your shifter handle.
The reason of the issue in the first place was owners would miss 6th gear and put it in reverse which meant grinding and bending the shifter mechanism. Picture one of those old style clunky knee braces then multiply that by several knees on the same leg with each pivot having all that metal. It just wasn't strong enough to handle the force of the misshift. That's the way I saw it when I opened it up and did the repair.
It's NOT an easy repair without the proper tools and base to hold everything in place. Don't let the little 6mm bearings shoot out or you'll be hunting them down forever.
We should consider starting a new topic since this seems to be hijacking the OP question.
yeah i apologize for that, didn't mean to sidetrack the thread.
Just out of curiosity since i haven't driven a 6 speed. Is reverse right and up, or right and down. If it's down I would probably miss that shift too and probably dislike that shift pattern.
It's right and down, I really wish it was right and up as I have missed that shift before as well.
The problem with that is people would be rolling at a relatively high speed and trying to shift into "7th". The end result would be ... NOT GOOD.
Yeah, my transmission is pretty worn out and I can't feel the shift gates at all. You have to know where the gears are to use all of them in my jeep, lol.
It would be nice if it was over past first.. That's how my old BMW was..
^This. My old work truck was like that. I liked my g35, had to push down on the shifter to get it to go into reverse.
I have the 6 speed with 33's and 4.88's. I wouldnt have it any other way. And no I dont use 2nd to start off from a stop.
5 Attachment(s)
However, I read a lot on here where 4.56 or 4.88 gears are great on our Jeeps. My guess is my thinking is way off and I've been thinking wrong for years. I'm a motor guy and really don't know squat about driveline stuff.

text: Indie Boss Battler Furi Is The Wrong Kind Of HardCecilia D'Anastasio7/05/16 1:35pm3436EditPromoteGo to permalinkMy issue with Furi isn't that it's too hard. For a fast-moving action game entirely built around boss fights, a certain amount of exasperation is to be expected. My issue is that the game is too hard in the wrong ways and, perhaps, for the wrong reasons.

Last Call for Sector 9Gby Leigh Brackett
Martie said monotonously, "There is someone at the door sir shall I answer? There is someone at the door sir shall I—"
Durham grunted.
- LendMe LendMe™ Learn More
Out there in the green star system; far beyond the confining grip of the Federation, moved the feared Bitter Star, for a thousand frigid years the dark and sinister manipulator of war-weary planets.
Martie said monotonously, "There is someone at the door sir shall I answer? There is someone at the door sir shall I—"
Durham grunted. What he wanted to say was go away and let me alone. But he would only grunt, and Artie kept repeating the stupid question. Artie was a cheap off-brand make, and bought used and he lacked some cogs. Any first class servall would have seen that the master had passed out in his chair and was in no condition to receive guests. But Artie did not, and presently Durham got one eye open and then he began to hear the persistent knocking, the annunciator being naturally out of order. And he said quite clearly.
"If it's a creditor, I'm not in."
"—shall I answer?"
Durham made a series of noises. Artie took them for an affirmative and trundled off. Durham put his face in his hands and struggled with the pangs of returning consciousness, He could hear a mutter of voices in the hall. He thought suddenly that he recognized them, and he sprang, or rather stumbled up in alarm, hastily combing his hair with his fingers and trying to pull the wrinkles out of his tunic. Through a thick haze he saw the bottle on the table and he picked it up and hid it under a chair, ashamed not of its emptiness but of its label. A gentleman should not be drunk on stuff like that.
Paulsen and Burke came in.
Durham stood stiffly beside the table, hanging on. He looked at the two men. "Well," he said. "It's been quite a long time." He turned to Artie. "The gentlemen are leaving."
Burke stepped quickly behind the servall and pushed the main toggle to OFF, Artie stopped, with a sound ridiculously like a tired sigh. Paulsen went past him and locked the door. Then both of them turned in to face Durham.
Durham scowled. "What the devil do you think you're doing?"
Burke and Paulsen glanced at each other as though resolve had carried them this far but had now run out, leaving them irresolute in the face of some distasteful task. Both men wore black dominos, with the cowls thrown back.
"Were you afraid you'd be recognized coming here?" Durham said. A small pulse of fright began to beat in him, and this was idiotic. It made him angry. "What do you want?"
Paulsen said in a reluctant voice, not looking at him, "I don't want anything Durham, believe me." Durham had once been engaged to Paulsen's sister, a thing both of them preferred not to remember but couldn't quite forget. He went on, "We were sent here."
Durham tried to think who might sent them. Certainly not any of the girls; certainly not any one of the people he owed money to. Two members of the Terran World Embassy corps, even young and still obscure members in the lower echelons, were above either of those missions.

likes coffee and waffle's... also catgirls, anime and games (hentai one's included)
lives alone with a cat to evade contact with the outside world, well.... i once did......
4,924 total episodes
Mellow Yellow Fellow!
Rofl...nao you just live with your cat and several other animals >.>; still avoiding the outside world xP
Sometimes, it is hard to guess what gender you are. Times to time, you sound like a boy but another time a girl.
Look, I found a manga with a similar character with you:Backstage Prince (I just started, I wonde if it is good...) Look at page 21 volume 1. They (actually he) say something interesting kahaha.
Yea, I watched Utawarerumono. You mean they are innocent?? I like the girl with wing ears~ hehe She's a good fighter!
>_< tehehe. I see. So you want a woman like those cat girls =qWell, no comment there. But you will see, somedays, maybe, you will find someone better than those cat girls. Hm.. Well what does cat girl anyway??
I am not fan of these, but I have no idea of what kind of character that is, so I will like to know what do you like from them.
I guess you have a good point about love (friendship and couple).I have little knowledge about love like that, but I know love is something you train! Love and Peace~~~ (Trigun). Oh I mean, love as something giving not just wanting. Although you can do honey moon stuff when you are in love, I don't think that's love. I guess maybe understand that. Anyway, true, that is after being wife and husband >_<. Oh, well, love is hmm somthing you need and you do everyday (like family, friend, activity, object, state, opinion, etc). @_@ Ah, it's too long. I like short. So in brief, let's stay within love.
Hey, its great that you found your way to AP! ^_^
As for that top5, I dont really know about that either, maybe you need to flag them as ''watched'' or ''watching'' first?
Well, anyways, enjoy your staY!
Hiya! Welcome to AP (Anime-Planet)
o_o Oh, you don't like contact? I say that too, but actually I kinda prefer to be social. I may not act physically (activity), but talking and knowing is great. I just want to know people, not to hang with them. If I do hang, I guess, I will still be happy (although I won't show it).
It is hard to say who is bad who is good. Because bad people can be nice or become nice, and nice people can be good but bad too. People, I love them or at least I want to. It is true that I have some people I simly can't stand, but I want to try to appreciate them. What I don't like is: Acohol, drug, porn, ... People needs to open their heart. Needs to be more independent judge. Know what is love (love is not about sex, it's something more deep, if you want, I can lecture teheh, although truly, It's only my thought; I have no proof of what love is).
It is true that putting too much perfum, just worst smell, but well...You think almost like me, but I will say, let's be happy with what there is and make it best. Although you cannot change that, if you are the one changing, the rest will just follow (because th way you see will change first of all).
^_^ Anyway, enjoy your stay. Let's be positive ~
P.s: As for me, I have fish >_<. +, u have cute ava

Check out Smorgasburg Saturdays at East River State Park—Kent Ave. and N. 7 St.—on the Williamsburg waterfront; and Sundays in Prospect Park at Breeze Hill. Both locations are open from 11am to 6pm, and feature packaged and prepared foods, beverages, and more from purveyors from New York City and across the region, for a total of 75-100 vendors. The markets are always open rain or shine.
Smorgasburg launched in May 2011 as a spin-off of Brooklyn Flea, the popular flea market founded by Jonathan Butler and Eric Demby in 2008. Every Saturday and Sunday from April through November, Smorgasburg showcases 100+ local and regional food vendors to upwards of 10,000 visitors daily, making it one of the most popular tourist destinations in Brooklyn. On The Chew, Mario Batali called Smorgasburg "The single greatest thing I've ever seen gastronomically in New York City," and The New York Times called it "The Woodstock of Eating." In addition to the weekend markets, Smorgasburg oversees the concessions at Central Park SummerStage, runs a pop-up beer garden at the Seaport District NYC, and operates Berg'n, a beer hall and artisanal food court in Crown Heights opened in August 2014.

Why would I buy shoe trees from Allen Emonds rather than say Bed, Bath and Beyond? Are Allen Emond's shoe trees that much better than the standard ones? Looks like I will be taking delivery of my first pair of Allen Edmond's tomorrow, then I will be seeing if you all are right about the quality of Allen Edmond's shoes.
I believe. AE used Woodlore for their shoe trees. I picked up 4 sets of Woodlore trees at my local Nordstrom Rack for $12.90 a piece.post #21964 of 707375/24/13 at 11:01ampost #21965 of 707375/24/13 at 11:07am

Flip the plate over, showing only bare silver rather than whatever manufacturer / store's name is on them.
Beautiful - great start to the long weekend.Quote:

Just got the invoice for my own MTO shoes today. I went with a cappuccino shell Kenilworth with a double JR sole and also made my own version of Foo's oneshoe. I got a burgundy shell MacNeil made on the 5-65 last without the split reverse welt, but with the double JR sole. Adding those to my black Park Aves, brown Strands, and burgundy shell Randolphs. I think my next order is going to be a pair of brown shell Dundees, unless anyone else has some suggestions. I think I have most of my bases covered between black stitch cap, brown brogue, burgundy shell longwing, brown shell PTB and burgundy shell loafers, but I'm curious if there are any other "must-have" shoes that I'm missing. A brown punch-cap maybe? Any ideas?post #21971 of 707375/24/13 at 12:58pm
If I have a bit of heel slippage and some room by the toes in 6.5E McTav's (but not enough of either to change sizes) is it safe to assume that in dressier 5 last shoes I should keep the same size? Would getting a BB model make a difference?post #21972 of 707375/24/13 at 1:07pm

I've got a little bit of cap-creasing going on here on my Strands. Absolutely LOVE the shoes, and the fit has been confirmed by Nordstrom fitting (no AE store anywhere near me). They feel comfy, certainly in length. If anything, still a bit tight in width, but nothing worrisome and only been worn half a dozen times, so likely not fully broken in. I'm not worried about the cap-creases, but is it normal? SHOULD I be concerned? Thanks everyone!post #21973 of 707375/24/13 at 1:18pm
Does anyone know if they sell the shoe trees in AE stores at the same price as online? 2 for $40? How about brushes, polishes, etc?

Or, on the other hand, does anyone know if Nordstrom Rack sells the full toe Woodlore trees? Or only the split/combination?

I would assume AE stores would be willing to price match their website.
I've only seen the split-toe shoe trees at nordstrom, never the fullpost #21975 of 707375/24/13 at 1:51pm

My local AE store (Denver, CO) sells the shoe trees for the same 2 for $40 deal. They also have a full line of shoe care products and even sell some things like Venetian Shoe Cream that you cannot get online. I mention the store as it may be specific to location. I was in the Denver store a month or so ago, and they had a selection of shoes on sale but not the entire collection. This matched exactly what was listed on line. The next day I was in the AE store in New Orleans, and they had all of their shoes on sale, including shell.
I've never seen full toe trees at my local Rack, and I usually try and look for them when I go.Return HomeBack to Forum: Classic Menswear

Thanks for helping!
Our group of young and old fond this exhibit very interesting. We learnt so much. Now we admire and respect M. Hershey and his followers even more.
Everyone know about Milton Hershey & his chocolate bars but there was much more to him than that. This is the place to learn about the unique school that has given wonderful opportunities to so many underprivileged children.
Founder's Hall at the Milton Hershey School it is beautiful marble stairs. Breath taking of elegances from a man who loved children and want to make life better for them. The gardens are delightful to walk and relax in them. Amazing place to photograph.
Founders Hall was closed for renovations on 8/30/16. No sign as to duration. Grounds are very nice. Good stop, if Hall was open when coming in off of Pa turnpike. Hope to visit next time. Call to ensure Hall is open if you plan to visit.
awesome tribute to a great man who made money and gave it away to a great cause long ago, inspiring story of an amazing man who worked hard and made money and gave it to a great cause of helping young men and women achieve all the could be , take a tour and learn all you can and you...
A great building and tribute to Catherine Hershey. Take time to tour it and see the amazing things inside...can as much time as you want!
Milton Hershey School is the best. They give such Great history about a couple that has done and still does the best for not only children but to help parents and grandparents that have difficulties in life! God bless! Founders Hall is AMAZING, a must visit to learn great history!
Our group took a tour of the Milton Hershey School - Founders Hall. Our tour guide Ken was wonderful! He really brought the Milton Hershey story to life in a way that all ages could relate. The entire visit and story of Milton Hershey is amazing.
One of the best kept secrets of Pennsylvania. Milton Hershey, namesake for the famous chocolate bar and community, started a school for disadvantage children in 1909. More than 100 years later, the school provides life-changing opportunities for boys and girls as young as four and through high school graduation. All funded by the Hershey businesses. Bet you didn't know.
Milton Hershey must have been one great guy. The things he did for the town named after him are amazing. There's an amusement park, a school, hotels, a hospital and Founder's Hall. This is a free school for Hershey residents. I believe it goes through high school. How wonderful for the students who go there not having to worry about...
Own or manage this property? Claim your listing for free to respond to reviews, update your profile and much more.
Is this building open to the public on Saturday's? How long should we spend and when does it open? The day we're talking about we need to be at Hersheypark arena by 2
Is Founder's Hall wheel chair accessible and what are the hours of operations?
Are there specific tour times?
Thank you.

Welcome to our "Ark". This site will give you an overview of who we are, information on all of our animals and hopefully a taste of the joy these wonderful creatures add to all of our lives. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site and will contact us if you have any questions.
Heiken's Ark IS Like Noah's Ark
Many people ask us how we got started with our exotic animal farm. It started slowly and seemed to mushroom as time went on. Back in 1987, Dick who is a Shriner, felt that his local Shrine Temple needed to have a Camel Patrol Unit. He was in a unit that drove custom made three wheeled motorcycles in parades. He convinced the guys in his unit that they should change and become the only Shrine unit that owned its camels.
They started the process and before long they had purchased two dromedary camels. Dick decided that we needed to sell our house on a golf course and buy a place where we could build a barn and keep the camels. That's where Heiken's Ark started!!
Within two years we had moved and had a 35-acre parcel of land with the house, barn and two camels. Both of us really liked the dromedary camels. Dick and the other guys of the Camel Patrol had started looking for more camels and had gone to some exotic animal auctions. He came home and told me about these wonderful creatures that were the hottest item around – potbellied pigs. That spring (1989) he brought our first two pigs home from an auction. In the fall came two more.
In the spring of 1990 we made the mistake of going to an auction together. We came away with four miniature donkeys and a llama. Our ark was beginning to be stocked.
One month later we again went to an auction together. When we were walking through the pens in the back of the sale barn, I saw my first pygmy goats. One of the little females was as wide as she was tall and cute as a button. I asked Dick if I could get her and he told me that if I wanted to get a goat it should not be a pygmy. They were too precocious for us and if I wanted a goat, I should get a fainting goat. So I did. I bought two pair.
That same year we added miniature Zebu cattle, peacocks, a pair of Grant zebra, and a pair of Jacob's sheep (4 horns) to Heiken's Ark. It seemed that our ark was growing two by two! The next year we added Watusi cattle and more miniature donkeys. In 1992 we added the final species to our ark – reindeer (and more miniature donkeys).
Just as our farm was beginning to seem too small, the Des Moines Airport decided that it needed our land for expansion. We were moved out quicker than we wanted, but in the long run it worked well for us. We now live on 180 acres, have eight barns and miles of high fence.
As our farm grew so did the number of animals that we have. When you start with two of each species, you soon get many more (some by reproduction and some by adding to your breeding stock). We have tried to build our herds with the highest quality breeding stock. We have a goal in mind for each species and strive to achieve it. We've been working on it for more than twenty years and are seeing positive and rewarding results. Our largest herd is now miniature donkeys which number more than 400. You can imagine that we always have many donkeys for sale.
Heiken's Ark has been a joy for us to build and we encourage those who are interested in the animals to come and visit us.
