Case: I am a sucker for antiques and historic anything - one night after a heavy boozing session in downtown Phoenix, I decided that rather than risking a DUI or calling a friend to babysit, that I would find the most affordable hotel that wasn't a shit hole. Hotel San Carlos had sweet rates, so this was the spot. \n\nBefore coming here I knew nothing about the history of it.. so I wasn't in it for the ghosts, although my wallet went missing, so could it be the spirit of Leone Jensen that was to blame? I will never know. I ended up getting the King Suite, for the same price as a regular room. Blame it on my abilities to get whatever the hell I want is up to you, but the guy at the front desk was more than happy to upgrade. Score.\n\nOnce inside the room, I was taken aback by the beautiful crown molding, Victorian decor, original radiators heating the room, vintage bed canopy and of course, the antiques that were scattered about. It reminded me of one of my old apartments in Boston, plenty of history to give me that sweet sweet feeling of being back in New England. This was what I dug most. I am not sure how big a normal room is, but the King Suite was pretty spacious. A loaded bar, with stools and all, living room area with a pull out couch, tv and footrests,  an armoir for hanging my clothes, which I didn't use obviously..  I snooped through every nook because it was all so old and interesting and mostly because im nosey. The bed was friggin' huge.. assuming they named the room after the bed would not be totally out of the question. \n\nHere come the complaints...\nThe pillows.. my god, they were so hard and gigantic (that's what she said). I ended up having to use a throw pillow from the couch to rest my head comfortably for I am a small human being with a tiny neck. The bathroom entrance has a step up that is about 10\"" high which I am surprised I did not stumble over and fall face first into the toilet followed by a broken nose and bleeding knees in the middle of the night. And lastly, had I of slept in 10 minutes more than I did, I would have been awoken by the sound of the maids vacuuming through the paper thin walls.. There is very little privacy in that sense. \n\nOther than that, the staff were so nice, and it was decorated beautifully for the holiday season. I hear the pool is rad, and how can it not be when Marilyn Monroe herself took a dip in it once upon a time? Other celebs have shacked up here as well.. Mae West, Jack Dempsey, John F. Kennedy and one of my faves..  Clark Gable. How cool is that! \n\nCome to think of it.. I did hear the sound of little children talking and laughing as I was leaving that morning, which I blamed on something outside not knowing the story about it being built on the first schoolhouse in Phx and over some sacred wishing well? Maybe I did experience a little paranormal activity, without even knowing it!\n\nI will certainly be back!

Case: Delanie's is my new favorite coffee place, which says something because I have so many in Pittsburgh. A few times a week, I like to walk a few blocks and have a coffee at their nice cafe on Carson. \n\nThe staff is always friendly.  The coffee is good, but the breakfast sandwiches are better. I love breakfast. I could eat brinner every night. That being said, their veggie, egg, and cheese sandwich is one of the freshest I've ever had. \n\nBe warned, a few of their frozen drinks taste more like milkshakes than your run-of-the-mill iced coffee. If you fancy a treat, try the \""turtle\"", a sweet frozen concoction of peanut butter, chocolate, and caramel.\n\nIt's not a bad place for a meetup, a break, or just somewhere to read/work for awhile.  If you're a regular, it's worthwhile to join their loyalty program. You will quickly accumulate free drinks!

Case: We decided to eat here only because all the places at the casino had a two hour wait. We got seated quickly and our waitress took our order and mentioned that she will very much keep our water filled. Never seem her again and had to beg for water. Got our corn bread and soup which was really good but waited 45 mins for our salads. The couple next to us got their meal in 15 mins.  Our Salads were drenched in salad dressing and tasted horrible. We ate only a 1/4 of our meal because we were very hungry otherwise we would have sent them back and we didn't want to wait another 45 mins. For $10 salad it sure was gross. The wait staff was running around like they were short staffed. There was probably only less the twenty people. Very unorganized mess watching them hussle about with oversized heavy dishes with small food items on each.  It took two people to carry entries out for a table of two.

Case: TERRIBLE experience. If giving this place no stars was an option, I wouldn't give it any stars. \nHorrible customer service.\n\nPrior to my visit, I looked on Yelp for other reviews and was satisfied with what I saw. I had a $200 silver blazer that I needed pressed with a small stain to be removed. I took it in along with a few other pieces of clothes and was given a pickup date for the next day. Upon my arrival the next day I had noticed a slight change to the color of my blazer. It had turned a slight pink color which wasn't what I had turned in. They tried to conceal the color change by covering the blazer between the other clothes I had brought in. \nI hadn't noticed until I had got home and when I did, I made a call back to the place and a rude female answered. She continued to rudely tell me that there was nothing they can do unless I can show proof of purchase. Now please note I had purchased the blazer a few months back. Now, I know I'm not the only one when I say \""I don't keep every receipt.\"" So I'll say it: I don't keep every receipt. \nShe mentioned that even if the blazer was from a thrift store or a Walmart, I needed a receipt. Now this is where I was completely pissed off because she didn't understand the cost of the blazer. \nI don't recommend this place to anyone. The staff is completely rude and the place itself isn't appealing. There are other places in Laveen to get your clothes dry cleaned and I can assure you they would do a completely better job and probably would even level with me in this situation.\nI'm assed out on a $200 blazer thanks to this sorry place they call a \""business\"".

Case: This place was ghetto while I was a tourist here in Las Vegas. But now, since I've recently moved here to this  *insert sarcastic tone here* WONDERFUL, FABULOUS city, it is STILL ghetto...if not worse.\n\nBeing in So Cali my WHOLE LIFE, we are mall snobs. There's at least 2 shopping malls in each city. Sooo....I've had my fair share of high end, middle end, typical, bargain, or \""you better dress down dont bother with wearing any makeup so nobody robs you\"" type of malls. I've seen them all.\n\n\nI can't speak for the male shoppers but for the females: what's up with the stores here!? There's a lot of \""Downtown LA-ghetto-fabulous\"" stores (best comparison i can make since I'm a born and raised a So Cali girl) . Acaci? Rainbow? Ever? WTF are these stores!?! No decent shoe stores available either!!!!!!! The forever21 store has a lack of merchandise and they're not up to date and Charlotte Russe was unorganized. Is there even a BeBe store here? Or H&M?\n\nI see a lot of you saying \""it's not Fashion Show Mall.\"" Well no kidding....I'm not expecting it to be all glitz and glam Las Vegas-fied out, but at least have some decent stores to shop at. Only store that got me semi-excited was Bath and Body Works. But that's because they were having their autumn scented candles and body care products.\n\nShoe Palace? Ghetto. Shiek? Ghetto. Acaci? Ghetto. I know for a fact I'm no Prada or Louboutin girl...but still....my gosh.... -_- So tell me ladies, when you go to THIS MALL, what stores do YOU shop at for your clothes and shoes??\n\n\nI've been told to not step foot inside Boulevard Mall, but I think Meadows Mall can be put in the same category. The guys that roam around here makes me wish I had my boyfriend with me.

Considreing the above, classify the following: I feel like there shouldn't be a whole review page for a hospital. It seems that each person's experience is based on one, maybe two, departments that causes the entire hospital to get a bad review. That said, this review is for the Labor/Delivery and Postpartum wards.\n\nWe went in to be induced with our first child at 41.5wks. The initial process of getting signed in and settled into our room was okay. I hate that in order to even be admitted to a hospital these days you have to put in a down-payment. $2K is the baseline for admittance into L&D, which is insane, but it's not necessarily the fault of the hospital (thank you, insurance companies) and is a rant for a different forum.\n\nOnce into a room, our first nurse was nice enough, though a bit rough with the Cervadil (I won't go into detail here). We met Dr. Tamanaka, who was the on-call OB from the sister-office of our regular OB, Dr. Linnerson. He was quite nice and explained everything to us clearly and patiently. That was really our only interaction with him since we were admitted in the evening. \n\nCome morning, we met the next shift of nurses and were blown away with how nice and friendly they were. I think it helps that my husband and I are friendly, reasonable, and generally pleasant folk. We chit-chatted through the morning while waiting for the next phase of the induction process. Our primary nurse ended up having to transfer our care to another, since one of her other patients needed an emergency c-section, and was seriously bummed. Eventually, every nurse on the floor, including the supervisor, came in to see us, claiming that they had to meet the couple that had all the nurses so happy and relaxed. Anyway, the new nurse was equally lovely and I felt like I was surrounded by friends. \n\nI just realized I'm starting to write a novel, so I'll try to keep the rest of this brief! Our OB, Dr. Linnerson, came to break my water (I think I can leave a more detailed review about him on his office page, Contemporary Care for Women). Bottom line: they didn't jump straight to Pitocin, they gave me time for my labor to progress, and they let me labor how I wanted to. \n\nUltimately, when time came to deliver, I was disappointed at how unavailable the on-call OB seemed to be. He eventually showed, but our nurse definitely did most of the work. What I loved about the Dr: he let me \""catch\"" my own baby and was super-cool about not announcing gender and leaving that for my husband. Excellent moment for us. \n\nFast-foward to the next day when we were transferred upstairs to the postpartum unit. Less-than-impressed, though there wasn't anything wrong with the way they did things. I actually think they were probably just great, but after the amazing experience we had in L&D, it seemed a little lackluster.\n\nFood: great quality, really tasty. The only bummer is the time-frame. Since it takes 45-60 minutes for them to deliver your food to you, you have to anticipate when you'll be hungry and what you'll want to eat. Ordering lunch an hour or so after eating breakfast is weird for me. \n\nAnd I think that'll do it. Loved L&D nurses, but Postpartum was meh. So I think 4-stars is fair.
