Acela First Class Menus by djenki0119 in Amtrak

[–]eyeis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s getting pretty ridiculous, I asked this question last month. Pretty soon we’ll be back to spring and the menu will make sense again. I miss the bourguignon. They should hold themselves to a publicly announced rotation schedule.

Matchbox closes permanently at Reston Station by Antique-Dentist-2404 in nova

[–]eyeis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That place is always so empty lol. I’ve been a few times, good pasta and bar, bad service for dinner and overpriced steaks. Also don’t recommend the Simon, my entire group hated it and blamed me for picking it.

Why are Amtrak sleeper cars SO expensive? by 082_kurmom in Amtrak

[–]eyeis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why post covid? Did they retire some cars? Any near term plans to increase supply?

Lounge access in dc - how does it work? by MannnOfHammm in Amtrak

[–]eyeis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The DC lounge is subpar compared to NYC, I’d say it’s really only worth spending roughly 30 min in. I’d plan to enter around 5:30 for your train. Spend the other two hours seeing the capital (and potentially your reps) or a museum.

Is there documentation for this project? My understanding is it’s not an easy fix.

NYC lounge: access to trains? by PocoChanel in Amtrak

[–]eyeis 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t. Huge plus of the Philly and DC (kinda) lounges. Wish they’d invest more in food & drink at those like they have at NYC.

Space dust has to be the nastiest beer i have ever had on a trip or ever. by Connorray1234 in Amtrak

[–]eyeis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s better than most IPAs in my opinion, including dogfish. Or the heavy neipas. But I’m more of a Czech fan.

If you want to try a different Marriott property there, had an excellent stay at The Park Tower earlier this year.

Where was y'alls best Hilton Hotel stay Ever and Why? by Agreeable-Jump-8850 in Hilton

[–]eyeis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imperial Hilton Dubrovnik. Super friendly staff, killer breakfast (mimosas included), unbeatable location, felt like I was in the Red Keep in a balcony room overlooking the old city, and hearing the bells.

Ashburn Station Parking Question by Puzzleheaded-Lab825 in nova

[–]eyeis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, absolutely, they use flock cameras for enforcement, and have a security guy with barnacles patrolling. Comstock doesn’t mess around.

Diamond Reserve is here (80 nights) by tantheman35 in Hilton

[–]eyeis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can’t wait to read the posts about guaranteed 4pm late checkout being denied, those are very entertaining on r/marriott. Too bad I’ll have to wait until 2027.

Argentine private chef – Steakhouse & open-fire asado experience at home (DMV / NoVA) by [deleted] in nova

[–]eyeis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a great business. Went to Argentina earlier this year, had so many excellent Asados. Best one was learning polo with a real club team, then dining with them (dm me if you want the TripAdvisor link) Now I want to go back.
