5.0 out of 5 stars Not Only for Romance, and Very Up-to-Date, January 17, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Romantic Weekend Getaways: The Mid-Atlantic States (Romantic Getaways) (Paperback)
I bought this book after seeing what a stellar job it did of choosing restaurants in my hometown, Pittsburgh. They identified most of my favorite restaurants, including my very favorite, which is such a hole-in-the-wall that many lifelong Pittsburghers don't know it exists. It included all price ranges.

We chose a West Virginia bed and breakfast out of this book, and it was an amazing place. The book named old favorites in many locations in the region, and introduced us to some of our new favorites.

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't order if you need it for your vacation!, June 2, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Romantic Weekend Getaways: The Mid-Atlantic States (Romantic Getaways) (Paperback)
The books says it is available in 2-3 days. As a matter of fact, I am waiting for it now since almost two weeks and it is not shipped yet. So in case you need it before you go on vacation, don't buy it! Otherwise, I like it.
