Rating: Summary: Suggested itineraries, transportation, hotel info. all great Review: This guide is jam-packed with information about transportation, travel tips, restaurants, hotels, great itineraries and local customs, etc. My only complaint is that the book isn't better organized or at least more selective about the info. printed. You really have to work to decipher the truly important info. on sights, museums, etc. from the voluminous listings of hotels and restaurants. I also thought the writing style leans a little too much towards objective. As a first time visitor to Spain, I would benefit more from a more subjective discussion, even rankings of museums, sights, cities, regions, etc. about
Rating: Summary: Could be a lot better Review: Uneven book. Too much detail in some cases (to see such and such turn left, then right, etc.), and not enough in other cases. Accomodation listings quite poor, with no mention at all of youth hostels, budget hotels, or alternate arrangements. No mention of important 1999 events, such as World Athletic Championships in Sevilla. In all, rather disappointing, and I wish I did not buy this book. I am now looking for another book that has more comprehensive accomodation listings.
Rating: Summary: Need some information on Internet access while abroad Review: We used your books to travel to Great Britain, Spain and Portugal in August '99. We found your books quite complete, except in one area. With the advent of Internet, more and more travelers abroad need to find places for access to their e-mail. "Internet Cafe"s are springing all over Europe, but none of your books mention them. These cafes are places that have computers available to the public, where for a nominal fee one can get an increment of time (1/2 hr., 1 hr. ...) to log on the Internet and access their e-mail or conduct any other business they need. We found these cafes in London, Barcelona, Lisbon and Madrid, but it takes some digging to find anyone who knows where they are. I am sure every major city in Europe has them, and it would be very useful if you could list some, or even mention that they exist and where to find information about them.
