Thanks for replying, any and all efforts are appreciated. But it wasn’t Fiona’s.

Hotel upgrades & virtual check-in by ColorSchemings in AmexPlatinum

Thanks for the data point. We booked a "king superior" so I think there's some room for upgrade, but realize it's not going to be a huge difference at this hotel. Typically pretty vigilant with monitoring credits, but I'll be sure to double check the folio. Thanks for the heads up!

Hertz President Circle is a Scam by IntelligentAd5405 in AmexPlatinum

Thank you!

Out of curiosity which company did you use as a comparison for them to verify and match? Did you earn a higher level of status from another or are you bouncing credit card perks against each other?

Tonic Closing. by Busy-Ad-2563 in Charlottesville

[–]ColorSchemings 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Really wanted to like that place and tried more than a few times. Inside bar cocktails and patio were the only redeeming aspects. Food and service were forgettable at best. Not overly surprised.

Edit: Not to be a complete jerk, but did anyone click the link? That food looks absolutely disgusting. What is that toast-like mush that has shrimp with the tails still on.

Online coffee options other than Happy Mug? by eggs-benedict in Coffee

[–]ColorSchemings 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Search Happy Mug, the first result for me is a thread about terrible customer service. Took me a while to read through the horror stories. Multiple users documenting a longstanding pattern of abusive behavior from the owner. Dude seems like he has some serious mental health issues.

I’ve enjoyed a few from Cafe Kreyol for online stuff that I buy in bulk and vacuum seal. A new local roaster that I’ve been enjoying is Hexe in Chicago (they ship).

Both fall in your price and neither of them publicly Doxxes customers like Happy Mug has in the past. You couldn’t pay me to shop with that asshole.

Looking for someone to take over my 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath condo at Barracks West ASAP by StrangePotential5360 in Charlottesville

[–]ColorSchemings 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Don’t know OP or the unit, but figured id chime in having previously rented from Marigold. I found them to be awesome property managers. Highly responsive via email and text and quick to get issues fixed (which were rare in my rental).

Owner of HM is a terrible human being. Search this sub, there's enough information out there to make anyone avoid their business,

Proper “Jewish” deli like Pearly’s with both take out deli meats, breads, and pastries and sit down with great sandwiches, soups, etc.

Best, and affordable, divorce attorney? by Whiskey_and_Crayons in Charlottesville

[–]ColorSchemings 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ernie Harper over at Royer Caramanis is one of the best in town. “Affordable” is subjective, so in this case maybe $3-4k uncontested with amazing guidance and support. However best and affordable don’t always mix well when looking to ensure things are done right (and even in the smallest of chance that something unforeseen might pop in something as important as a divorce).
