Oh, and about that particular hotel I frequently get this question from people: "Now, that fallsview room...will I be able to see the falls from it"?

I always want to say "fallsview is our secret codeword for crack alley."

God. of COURSE you can see the falls from the "fallsview" room. Lordamercy.

This one I can actually sympathize with. Tourism is about marketing.
We have ocean view rooms which are self explanatory. And we have water front rooms. This can mean it overlooks a pond, a stream, a pool, a flooded parking lot, a poorly functioning septic......always something to clarify!
