He said, “Please help me get back my successful hotel.” His 235 unit, full service hotel had had its economic rug pulled out from underneath.

my family went to Walt Disney World, it being one of my all-time favorite places. Everytime we go there it’s a brand new experience and it makes me always want to go back for more. This memory is extra special to me because it is the first Disney vacation that I remember fully from the time we stepped on the plane at JFK to the time I got back to my house in Bethpage.
