However the email that arrived just prior to check-in that advised the use of earplugs to block the sound of traffic and trains…well it was good advice, but arrived a little too late. The perpetual falling of objects from the trees overhead onto the metal roof of the house all together with the train rumbling through and trucks thundering by, lead to a less than decent sleep. For the accommodation I was most looking forward to on my trip, it was the most disappointing. ##### Stephen Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Penny's Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Pennys-Motel.h4718666.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Miami](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d178286-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Encore Resort and Water Park at Reunion by Rentyl](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Encore-Resort-At-Reunion.h15190527.Hotel-Information) > > [Occidental Papagayo - Adults Only - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-Beach-Hotels-Occidental-Papagayo-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h659642.Hotel-Information) > > [Encore at Wynn Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Encore-At-Wynn-Las-Vegas.h2223789.Hotel-Information) > > [Nomads Rest](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Nomads-Rest.h27954748.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Long Island City/New York City](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Long-Island-CityNew-York-City.h19176542.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel North](https://www.expedia.ca/North-Sydney-Hotels-Hotel-North.h12005.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Ziva Cancun All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Hyatt-Ziva-Cancun-All-Inclusive.h11669114.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Downtown Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Toronto-Toronto-Hotels.0-n6057934-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Motels Abbotsford](https://www.expedia.ca/Abbotsford-Motels.d4128-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Beaches Turks & Caicos - ALL INCLUSIVE](https://www.expedia.ca/Providenciales-Hotels-Beaches-Turks-Caicos-ALL-INCLUSIVE.h197859.Hotel-Information) > > [Kamana Lakehouse](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Kamana-Lakehouse.h983589.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Punjab (ISB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/isb/toronto-to-islamabad) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mco/toronto-to-orlando) > > [Flights from LON-All Airports to Belfast Intl.](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lon/bfs/london-to-belfast) > > [Flights from Paris (CDG) to Manises (VLC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/cdg/vlc/paris-to-valencia) > > [Flights from Zürich (ZRH) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/zrh/yyz/zurich-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Barcelona (BCN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/bcn/vancouver-to-barcelona) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/del/vancouver-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Ogdensburg (OGS) to Nashville (BNA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ogs/bna/ogdensburg-to-nashville) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Calgary-Intl.d4413785.Car-Rental-Guide) > > [Sportscar Car Rentals in Mississauga](https://www.expedia.ca/Sportscar-Car-Rentals-In-Mississauga.d7954-tSportscar.Car-Rental-Guide-Class) > > [Car rentals in Cornwall](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Cornwall.d10558.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Hanover](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Hanover.d6232669.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Tarifa](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Tarifa.d5766.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Portugal Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Portugal.d147.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Langdale Ferry Terminal](https://www.expedia.ca/Langdale-Ferry-Terminal-Gibsons.d553248621584289350.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Pearl Harbor](https://www.expedia.ca/Pearl-Harbor-Western-Honolulu.d144367.Vacation-Attraction)
