MODERN LODGING WITH TRANSIT ACCESS TO ALL OF BELGIUM
Aparthotel Adagio Access Gent Centrum Dampoort had tons of amenities – work out area, games to play, warm lobby, outdoor patio and a full restaurant and bar.
The lobby featured the famous Adagio offering
of tons of things to buy for the room – from Belgian beer to microwave dishes
to snacks to toothpaste and other items.
All items are priced more than a
store, but not at a gouging rate.

Theses buses will take you very close
to the town center as well as other interesting parts of Gent.
I used this as a base for nearly a
week in Belgium and I would highly recommend it for that.
I slept like a baby.
The room was well soundproofed and my
request to have a unit away from the very busy 4-lane road that the hotel sits
on was honored.

A beer on the waterfront patio from
the Hotel’s Eat In restaurant was great and one day I fueled up on the
breakfast buffet.
It is a 10 minute walk to restaurants
and shops and only a 20 minute walk to the center of lively and historic Gent.

It is well managed – I asked for
extra bed sheets, help with the non-functioning AC and dead battery room safe
and go help in less than 30 minutes.
The property is 10 minutes from Dampoort
Rail Station – I used it for low cost, high speed rail connections to Antwerp,
Mechelen, Brussels, Bruges and Lille, France.
There is a large Carrefour grocery store very close to Dampoort Station and I used it to buy breakfast and snack food foods for the full kitchen in the aparthotel.
YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW IT IN MIAMI, WHERE ANTI-SOCIAL PEOPLE PARK ON THE SIDEWALK BY THE HUNDREDS – DESTROYING SAFE MOBILITY FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
Anti-social "car brain"
Miami drivers 'celebrate' by blocking sidewalks which destroys safe mobility
for people with disabilities.
Cars MUST be ticketed and towed.
Don't tell me people might not know any
better.
A 10 year old on a bike knows not to
park on the sidewalk.
Don't say a wheelchair user can just
"go around in the street."
Miami streets are dangerous, even the
side streets.
Ask the family that lost a good man who
was killed by a vehicle on the side street next to Miami’s Shenandoah Park.
But Steve, maybe there was nowhere
else to park.
Even in lawless, selfish Miami -- lack of convenience is NOT an excuse for illegal behavior.
COSY 3 STAR PROPERTY IN THE PERFECT LOCATION WITH A GREAT STAFF
I stayed for less than $150 fully loaded with
tax, etc.
There is a shutter and blackout
drapes, but the view was so beautiful, I kept the shades open and fell asleep
to clouds passing over moonlight in Paris!
This is THE place to rest and base
your visit in Paris.

It feels like staying with family.
The room is not huge, but it is
perfect.
I walked to sites and attractions in
the 3rd, 4th, 9th, 8th and 10th arrondissements.
Marche Aligre is a short walk away
and my all-time favorite Marché Bastille (aka Marché Richard-Lenoir) is a
spirited 30 minute walk away through the authentic Faubourg St. Antoine.

The neighborhood is safe, quiet and
filled with locals.
You will feel like a Parisian.
Saime Voltaire Boulangerie, Au petit
Panisse, and Boucherie John Gillot were excellent local foodie places very
close to the hotel.

The location is perfect.
It’s about a five minute walk from
Nation station that takes you everywhere in Paris via Metro and RER trains.

There is a small elevator.
The bathroom was large, modern and
the shower had endless warm water.
There were nightstands on each side
with plugs for my white noise machine and charging phone.
A small desk with coffee maker was
space enough for morning pastries and a final day lunch in my room.

My room was so quiet.
I got a 6th floor room -- the top
floor -- despite a discount booking.
It is a typical Haussmann building
with garret style apartment with gabled wall and tilt out window.
The views over the Pairs rooftops
were dreamlike.
YOU CANNOT HAVE TWO MAJOR PARTS OF YOUR EXHIBIT ACCESSIBLE ONLY VIA STAIRS. WHAT GIVES, SUPERBLUE?
I visited your immersive art
experience.
In return for nearly $40 per ticket,
please improve wayfinding.
The continuation of the exhibit
(virtual spray painting) is upstairs.
No signage to wheelchair accessible
entrance.
Quoting your website: "Superblue
Miami (1101 NW 23rd St) is fully wheelchair accessible.
All exhibition areas, pathways and
surfaces are navigable by wheelchair.
But only stairs (we asked) lead to 2nd
level of Es Devlin Forest of Us.
MINORITY-OWNED PLANNING FIRMS ARE AS ESSENTIAL AS THEY EVER WERE, THESE FOUR TOP EXPERTS ARGUE — NO MATTER WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE SAYS
“How do you help communities
to become places where they can actualize all their abilities? Diversity as a
perspective makes our profession better.”
When it
comes to sustainability, Estolano emphasized that firms owned by people of
color can frame issues of climate justice, pollution, the clean energy
transition, and water quality in terms that reflect the direct experience of
the communities that have been most impacted.
“We had our neighborhoods bulldozed to build freeways that caused more air pollution that seared our lungs,” she added.
“We understand what it means to live within the
evacuation zone of an oil refinery and can appreciate what clean cars and
renewable energy can mean for our kids and their kids.”

“We work
closely with communities on changing the things that result from poor planning
and poor policy,” she added.
Estolano’s firm is currently leading the planning process for the future of a state-owned site in LA’s Crenshaw district that’s been shuttered for more than a decade.
Served by light rail, it could be redeveloped with housing, job training and
other community services.
