"What's the impressive looking hotel at the end of steet" (Rodeo drive)

"Oh, delightfully put...at least she got some new dresses and 3,000 dollars out of it"

"Some women just sell themselves too cheaply"

ROUTE 66 : Tip 59 - Welcome to which hotel ?

"Which song have you heard in every hippy hangout, cafe and hostel across the world ?"

"Easy, House of the rising Sun"

"Umm...well second then ?"

"Were in...Beverly hills, Beverly Hills..."

"Think wider.."

"I got it ! Welcome to the Hotel California !"

"And that is the hotel on the cover - The Beverly Hill Hotel. More stars than a constellation and a guest list that doubles as a copy of 'Who's who?"

"It couln't have been the inspiration for the Eagles' song, could it ?"

"Well, plenty of places have tried to claim that, including a hotel on Mexico that built up a widely accepted story that it was the inspiration for the song - all complete rubbish of course"

"Goodbye to the Hotel California then"

ROUTE 66: Tip 60 - Put it away its disgusting

"What piece of sleaze are you goung to tell me about now ?, it seems you have read up about every dodgy going on around here"

"Well it's not as if you are short of scandal in a place like this. The park over there, the Will Rogers park, opposite the posh Hotel contains a toilet block, and one very embrassed British singer from Hertfordshire"

"I got that one in a 'flash' - Its where George Michael was caught out wafting his tackle about, isn't it ?"

"I'm afraid so. Perhaps it should be re-named the 'Will Roger ?' Park !"

"You have no taste"
