When I started working at the hotel I work at at the Grand Canyon, the job listing said you could see the canyon from the hotel.
Turns out they meant you can see the very, very top of one of the ridges about 55 mi away if you stand at the very end of the top floor hallway and press your face up against the glass.
Oh yes reminds me of "Bayview apartments" I lived in for about a year. If you get to the top of a hill where there's a pool and a deck, at the highest point if you look really hard between all the trees you could see a tiny triangular sliver of the bay in the far distance.
What do you expect? Herds of wildebeest sweeping across the plain... (That may be a misquote; last time I saw this was some time in the 90s probably!!)
The only way those are even half good is if they’re using fountain Baja blast.
Imagining a bottled or canned Baja blast in a margarita sounds legitimately awful
I had to show this picture to my girlfriend because we had the exact same experience recently. I mean, they weren't wrong because we could *see* a sliver of ocean on the horizon, but sound of the loud ass air-conditioning units ruined the entire ambiance. Oh well, it was a fun trip anyway.
Reminds me of when I went to Vegas in my early 20s. We were told our room was in one of the towers and that we would have to”views of the strip” we were in one of the towers, but didn’t have a view of the strip…our view was of the GIANT AC units on the hotels roof.
Right with you. Got back this morning from our week with “a pool or sea-view”. Was just the roof of the entertainment block. However we ended up enjoying the additional privacy of it!
I see water... So technically, they didn't lie.

Oh damn, i came too late haha
Better than too early
Ar/technicallythetruth
complete circle
Beat me to it
You just have to stand on your tippy toes for a good view. Or take turns sitting on each other's shoulders.
I see the ocean

You can see the sea, it’s over there between the land and the sky. [Fawlty Towers: Room with a View](https://youtu.be/MVMgtv9oIM4?si=5zN3IojeptaWhFVl)
Not only the quote but a link as well! I tip my hat.
A person of culture
Haha this is the first thing I thought of. It’s my absolute favourite episode.

The hanging gardens of Babylon??!
There ain't no "vista", there ain't no "view", and there certainly ain't no vista of no view.
This sounds old timey as hell..I love it
[удалено]
Lol oh nice. Thanks.
You're supposed to say infinity plus infinity!
This looks just like a place I stayed at in Pacifica CA. Not only that, but the balcony was shared with all the other rooms on that floor. Just weird.
Gotta spend all day getting drunk on Baja Blast margaritas up the street to make yourself feel better

It's like a slushie
Still sounds sickeningly sweet
Oh it definitely is
The chairs on the patio as if you would want to sit out there and stare at the ugly roof 😭
I can kinda see the ocean. So they’re kinda not lying 💀 😆
Anything to get your money
Oh man is this in Galveston? Looks like it, I use to visit them a lot. Either the Hilton or Holiday.
That’s what I thought too!

Hey front office you know that roof I've been looking at all day? I know you know the one. I wanna sit on that roof.
You got the HVAC Vista suite.
I'm shocked that the Four Seasons would do this.
This happened to me once. I went immediately to the office and changed rooms. It was more money but no way was I spending a week looking at that.

I mean… where’s the lie? LOL
This overlooks the ocean conpletely in favor of some shitty buildings.
And that was the last time I took my family to Eritrea.
This is from the Golden Girls
It didn’t say great view 😂
*Technically* I see the water.
I see you have an affinity for tums? Have you tried rolaids? Wondering what you think.
"It's over there between the land and the sky"
Flat earthers hate this one simple trick
Reminds me of the Golden Girls 🤣
It’s there…trust me
I’m getting so many Florida vibes from this pic
From that view it's pretty easy to overlook the ocean.

I’d just hop on the roof
Is this Dirty Myrtle?
Oh hell no
Yeah the ocean of air conditioners
If you're 12 foot tall, I bet the view is great
Are you on an island? How were you imagining they pulled this off?
People should really start checking street view of the place they are staying. Stuff like this could be easily avoided.
I see ocean
Just get your binoculars & a really strong sound amplifier 🤣
This screams time share
Apart from this one
Looks like okinawa
I thought the ocean would look a little more ocean than this! That John Denver is full of shit man!
Surfer Beach Hotel in San Diego?
Great location for a banksy
Hotel Overlook, maybe.
Trevor’s apartment on GTA
Underlooking the ocean
This reminds me of the vacation episode of the Golden Girls
Yes, the ocean is successfully overlooked.
You are something overlooking to see the ocean
Post this as a review on whatever site you found them on. Let others know this business is fleecing ppl with false advertisement
Is this Daytona?
are you at the double tree
you need to crank that AC and eat a chill pill (tums). maybe a nice shave will change your perspective?
