Brilliant review and photos Birdie!  Thank you for posting this.  Modern living isn't one of the themes I collect, but I really enjoyed seeing all the details of this :D  Somehow the gift shop is calling to me (damn those postcards!) - now how can I fit that into a medieval setting? lol

Your whole medieval setup could be one of those ''living museums'' where people dress up as medieval people. Then you could have the hotel outside for tourists.  ;)

Just decided I will buy the extra floor tomorrow  :love: anyone ideas on how to make it look less 'hotel ish' since it will function as an apartment for poor students....?

Shared rooms/bathrooms. Books and junk everywhere.  :lol:

That's actually a really good idea. Put two twin beds in each room, old-style tube TVs, mis-matched furniture, have desks in each room with laptops and open books. Leave the tile stickers off in the bathrooms so they don't look up to date. Better yet, just have one shared bathroom per floor if it can be arranged that way. No palm trees out front but instead some boring bushes.

 :lol: nice ideas. and of course messy kitchenettes with boxes with pizzas! now I have to find the right klickies, which will be difficult since pm doesn't do adolescents that much or am I missing something? was thinking of these two:

That's a great idea, Viviana! Looking forward to see how it turns out.

I also liked retronio's idea to turn it into a big house. I've tried moving the walls to the edges of the baseplate - leaving out the balconies - but it proved to be very tricky.

There's also the big skate park that has teenagers: http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?setnum=4414 and some of the F?gures from series 2, the skateboarder and the girl with the radio. Plus this blister pack: http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?setnum=5929 and the bright red hair from this klicky: http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30-14-4520 looks great on a teenager.

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

I love the skaters, except for the stupid legs...  That skate park has been smiling at me whenever I go to London.

Wow, I missed this.  Thanks for the great review Birdie.  I LOVE this hotel after seeing it like this.  There are so many cool accessories and klickies.  I really like the bellboy and luggage and the champagne bottle.

I totally missed that the cards have been slipped in this theme. Looking at the pictures on the DB it only shows the playing side but I wanted to know what color the deck is? The last deck was green
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

It's green too, it's the exact same deck as in other, older sets.
