Could my dizzy spells be caused by air conditioning?
I stayed in a hotel with air conditioning in my bedroom around 8 months ago. After sleeping in the room for one night I began experiencing strange dizzy spells. Its not really "dizzy spells" but it feels a bit like the ground suddenly moves or someone has given you a slight push. I was told by someone that it was the constant breeze coming from the air conditioning that was blowing in my ears and causing it to effect my balance. I recently stayed in this hotel room again and exactly the same thing happened. The feeling goes on for about 48 hours after I have stayed in the room. I guess it must be the air-conditioning but I have googled this and I cant find anything about air-conditioning effecting your balance. Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
Will my clothes dry faster in a room with an air conditioner?
Air conditioners dehumidify ( removal of moisture ) the air in the room in order to render comfortable working environment.As the air moves across the evaporator coil, the coil absorbs heat and also wrings out moisture. The air now has a cooler temperature and is drier, so when it comes out of the vents , it mixes with room air and makes the room more comfortable.Drying is the process of removal of moisture where the driving force is the difference in the partial pressure (amount of liquid) of the solid and the vapour pressure of the air in the room. So when the moisture of the room is lowered, driving potential for drying is higher which in turn dries the clothes faster.
Does air conditioning cause bloody noses ?
Air Conditioners can dry out the air so it is just the lack of moisture in the air that might cause a nosebleed. There are plain saline nosesprays you can get just to add moisture to your nose to prevent those.
The air conditioning on my hotel room isn't working. Shoiuld the hotel give me a discount?
The location of the room is awesome. We are right on the beach. However, it is 95 degrees and the air conditioning isn't working. The hotel staff are apologetic but the only rooms they have open are on the street side of the hotel. I specifically asked for a room on the beach side. There are no other hotels available for this weekend. Shouldn't they discount my rate since they can't provide what they were paid for? They don't think so, and I don't know what to do...

Is it better for the air conditioner vent to be opened or closed?
I am guessing you mean the open-closed switch on a room air conditioner that switches it between using outside air and recycling indoor air? Because if you're talking about a central AC vent, open means you get air and closed means no air! I use the open position on my room AC if it is relatively dry outside and not over 85. I flip it open to get some fresh air in at least once a day, in any case, for a short time. I flip it to open if the house got stinky from cooking (I don't allow smoking in my home). If it's very hot and/or humid outside, closed will keep your house cooler/dryer, and your AC won't work as hard.

I've always wondered. Why can't the hotel windows in Las Vegas slide open?
Well some people will have you believe it has to do with jumping or that it's law. Well that can't be it since some of the windows in Bally's open. The real reason is so that the air conditioning and heating systems work more effectively. When it's 110 degrees out, you need the air conditioning to work at its best. When somebody tries to open the window, it means the air conditioning has to work harder to cool everyone down
What was your cost of vacation in Thailand? 1-2 weeks?
I've lived in Bangkok for eight years now. One can spend very little money here or a lot. Many Thais make only about 5000 baht or US$140 a month and some make even less. If you want to live as they do, it could be very cheap. That means you never eat in a restaurant, but from street vendors and you stay in a room without air-conditioning or a private bathroom. Eating food from street vendors is usually risky for foreigners--the standard of cleanliness is not what you'd find in western countries. The main problem has to do with the way they wash dishes and not in the food itself especially if the food is cooked in front of you. Bangkok and Phuket are the most expensive places in Thailand, but it's possible to find bargains even in these locations. I went to a nice restaurant for lunch today here in Bangkok and the total bill was 520 baht (US$14.50 including tip) for two people and that included two glasses of beer for each of us. As you might expect, Thai food is cheaper than any other kind. Most tourist locations (except for Pattaya) and all places in Phuket near the beach are relatively expensive. The southern islands and Krabi are moderately expensive. The rest of the country is much cheaper with the north and northeast Thailand being the cheapest. If you don't care about tourist locations, you can save a lot of money. Krabi which is not a hot tourist spot is cheaper than Phuket even though they're not that far apart. Bang Saen, which is a beach resort area mostly for Thais, the prices are half or less than what one would pay in a popular tourist spot. I love to go there not just because of the low prices, but because the seafood restaurants are among the best in Thailand. Bang Saen is located between Bangkok and Pattaya. Air Asia has the lowest airfares between Bangkok and Krabi. For the lowest fare, one must purchase an e-ticket online at http://www.airasia.com. You need to select "Malaysia" when entering the site to get English. Currently, I've found fares between the two locations as low as 750 baht (US$21) each way plus tax. To get the lowest fares, one must book early. Air Asia is a no-frills airline and luggage restrictions are significant. It's possible to spend less than 1,000 baht (US$27.75) a day for food and still feel that you're not sacrificing anything. Of course, you can spend even less, but in that case, you'd be watching every baht you spend.
What is an inexpensive hotel in New York City?
What's considered inexpensive is always relative, but I tend to think of $150/night as being a very good deal for a room in New York at a reasonably decent hotel. There's the Pod Hotels -- there are two locations. I've stayed at Pod 51 under duress during a last minute business trip during the Christmas travel season when hotel prices were insanity. I needed to be on the UES, and Pod 51 happened to be a mile away so I booked it for like $150/night. Pod 51 is really half boutique hotel, half hostel -- you can get a shared room with a shared bathroom for like $80/night. Their pricing is weirdly bouncy, and the hotel is extremely popular with European travelers... I've seen rooms priced there for $350 which is insane. It's a very young crowd, a lot of backpackers and not so many business travelers. The room was totally adequate, not even all that pod-like, and the hotel is on a quiet street in a nice neighborhood. I've also gotten a room at The Hudson Hotel which is right next to the Time Warner Center in midtown. Someone recommended it to me, and I don't know that I'd stay there again. The room was $150/night, so it was pretty cheap but the standard rooms are claustrophobically small -- the room was smaller than my Pod hotel room. The hotel and the room, however, were significantly nicer than The Pod.I had rooms once at The Lexington, which I recall being around $200 a night. The room was a good size, and the hotel was very quiet which is great. Everyone there seemed to be on business. It's about a mile south of Central Park. It was pretty unmemorable, but completely adequate.I like the Ace Hotel a lot, particularly if I'm traveling alone because it's kind of a loud, packed scene and everyone who frequents the bar is super friendly. And during the day, the downstairs lobby space is filled with people working on their laptops. I've gotten rooms there for as little as $250/night which is a bargain for the type of hotel it is. The rooms are also much larger than most standard hotel rooms. If you're looking for a more corporate, luxury experience, the New York Palace Hotel is beloved by business travelers. It's in midtown, so generally cheaper than its luxury counterparts closer to the UES like The Surrey, Carlyle, etc. The cheapest room I've gotten in the Palace was $350/night. The rooms are very large, but they're not nearly as a nice as the building and lobby would suggest they should be. The service is great, though.
