I
went
to
Bucharest
for
one
conference,
and
stayed
the
entire
month
until
the
second
conference.
And
then
I
stayed
another
month
because
everything
fit
together
so
nicely
with
the
room,
the
breakfast
and
the
dinner.
I
had
looked
into
another
ibis,
more
center
city
so
I
could
walk
to
more
touristy
places,
but
I
was
very
happy
being
able
to
do
most
everything
I
needed
to
do
on
foot
or
by
bus.
An
occasional
Uber
to
AFI
Cotroceni
filled
in
the
gaps.
The
nearby
grocery
store
was
bigger,
and
the
closest
Post
Office
was
nicer
than
those
in
other
areas
I
have
stayed
in.
As
many
others
have
mentioned,
the
staff
was
very
personable.
Their
numbers
were
fairly
small
which
meant
I
had
the
chance
to
interact
with
each
over
the
ensuing
weeks.
Not
a
bad
apple
in
the
entire
bunch!
In
fact
I
left
with
two
new
Facebook
friends!
The
hotel
is
large
but
not
the
largest
Acoor
property
I
have
stayed
in,
and
overtime
several
tour
groups
visited
for
evening
dinner
and
morning
breakfast.
As
an
American,
my
favorite
part
of
traveling
is
to
mingle
and
interact
with
persons
from
different
countries
with
different
languages.
It
was
very
interesting
meeting
people
from
Kyiv,
several
groups
from
Spain,
and
even
a
tour
bus
of
Asian
adults.
There
was
an
Erasmus
group
of
students,
I
learned
later
apparently
from
Greece,
and
models
from
a
Romanian
reality
Tv
series.
Building
the
Ibis
next-door
to
Politechnia
was
an
amazing
decision.
While
I
have
no
connection
to
the
school,
I
did
occasionally
walk
up
and
down
the
flower
garden
to
take
in
the
sights,
and
to
get
in
some
exercise
that
I
otherwise
would
have
gotten
doing
touristy
things
in
old
town.
The
kitchen
restaurant
was
an
amazing
room,
and
I
wound
up
spending
the
better
part
of
an
hour
and
a
half
a
day
there,
for
breakfast
and
back
for
dinner.
It
is
an
ibis
so
the
furniture
was
a
little
quirky,
but
I
found
ways
to
keep
my
ailing
back
very
comfortable.
My
being
gluten
and
lactose
intolerant,
the
staff
was
very
aware,
and
despite
the
fact
that
I
brought
my
own
bread
which
can
be
a
little
tricky,
they
had
plenty
for
me
to
choose
from.
Especially
since
I
don't
stray
from
very
plain
American/English
menu
items.
Almost
everyone
spoke
English,
and
those
who
did
were
quite
fluent!
I
would
not
be
surprised
if
some
were
also
fluent
in
other
European
languages,
especially
what
are
known
as
the
Romance
languages.
Perhaps
even
German!
I
had
a
quality
time
and
I
will
return
for
the
next
conferences.
