From slightly more far-fetched services like wi-fi, spa/gym facilities to more essential things like beddings, there are several things one can request for upon checking into a hotel.
Here are 9 things everyone can request for when checked into a hotel.
  1. Charger: Forget your charger in the rush of packing? You can request for this from the front desk office and if available will be loaned.
  2. Pillows: Don't like your pillows? The hotel is obligated to provide you with better ones.
  3. Hair straightener: Ladies need to keep that hair in place but forgot your straightener? Why not try the front desk.
  4. Sewing kit: Some hotels have complimentary sewing kits available for guests use.
  5. Toothbrush/toothpaste: If this isn't already provided in the room, you can always make a quick call to front desk to make a request.
  6. Extension cords: Be careful not to burn it though or you'll have to make a payment.
  7. Children's toys: Some hotels offer things for crayons and toys for children's amusement. So if you find yourself in a hotel room with bored children, find out if your hotel offers something for them.
  8. Board games: Just like with children's entertainment, some hotels have something for the adults too.
  9. Swimming costume: If the hotel has a pool, it's impossible that there'll be swimming costumes for rent.

In US Experience vs. Judgment: Clinton, Sanders vie for pivotal Iowa vote

Image
The town hall at Drake University lacked the feel of a normal debate. It featured separate appearances by Sanders, former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley and Clinton and all three took audience questions at the event. With Iowa kicking off the 2016 election season in one week, Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton tried to erase doubts about her judgment raised by rival Bernie Sanders on Monday while digging deep into her years of governing experience. At a CNN town hall meeting, Sanders argued that his own judgment, not Clinton's experience, is the most crucial quality for the next commander-in-chief. Clinton, in response, evoked President Barack Obama , saying when he selected her to be secretary of state he gave approval to her judgment. " You have to have somebody who is a proven, proven fighter, " Clinton said. Anxious to put down a threat from the democratic socialist, Clinton faced the challenge of convincing D...

Why Won't Anyone Buy the Most Expensive House in New Jersey?

Image
(Bloomberg) -- When real estate developer Richard Kurtz put his 30,000-square-foot, 12-bedroom, 19-bath home on the market for $68 million in 2010, it was the most expensive property in New Jersey. Seven years later, the house, which sits on a little more than six acres in Alpine, a suburb about eight miles from New York City, remains both unsold and at the top of the market. The only change is its price: It will soon be relisted for a mere $48 million. “I’m not giving it away,” said Kurtz, whose Kamson Corporation develops and manages apartment buildings, said in a phone interview. “There’s a lot of house, with a lot of value, and a very smart buyer will recognize that.” He’s in no rush to sell it, he said. “I could sit with it for another four or five years,” he continued. “But I’d prefer not to.” If it remains in his possession for an additional four or five years—an unenviable situation, given that he's never lived in it and said it costs him about $400,000 a y...
