the desk clerks last Tuesday to let them know that general housecleaning would be performed on the seventh and eighth floors on Wednesday morning and that they should not assign rooms on those floors to guests on Tuesday night.

Today was the day. My family and I have been waiting for what feels like a lifetime, but was only nearly eight short months. It was early in the morning, the sun had just come up. The house has just awoken, everybody still in their rooms trying to figure out the game plan for a sunny Sunday morning in the middle of June. Then, we got the phone call. It was an emergency and we were all told to meet at the hospital in twenty minutes. Naturally, when you hear the word “hospital” you automatically think

In this article, we will find out what characteristics contemporary style interior has, and how to use this style to make room comfortable, functional and cozy. First, it should be noted that contemporary style was formed in the second half of the twentieth century, and it has adopted certain features of other styles, which were widespread at that time. In a broad sense “contemporary”

It appears to be a living room; there’s a TV and a small, gray sofa in the back corner next to the window, and rustic tables are standing neatly in the middle.
