I've been stuck at 88% for a few days now, and even if it lits up like signaling you got something new, its still at 88%.. Is this just me or someone is stuck here too..

The University of Iowa Visual Arts Building in Iowa City, Iowa, is a striking example of architecture shaped by resilience.

Designed by architects Steven Holl and Chris McVoy, the building replaced the previous arts facility that was severely damaged during the historic 2008 floods. Elevated above the floodplain, the structure combines practical flood-resistant design with bold contemporary architecture.

Inside, the building houses studios, classrooms, galleries, and collaborative spaces for students and artists. Its distinctive exterior features translucent channel glass, allowing natural light to filter deep into the building while creating a unique appearance throughout the day and night.

More than just an academic building, it stands as a symbol of recovery, creativity, and thoughtful design.

A courthouse where the main staircase feels almost cathedral-like.

Inntel Hotels Amsterdam Zaandam in Zaandam is one of the most distinctive hotels in the country.

Its striking green facade is designed to resemble a stack of nearly 70 traditional houses from the Zaan region, inspired by the local architecture that has defined this part of Netherlands for centuries. One blue house stands out in the composition, referencing a famous painting by Claude Monet.

The result is a building that feels both playful and deeply connected to its surroundings, instantly recognizable even from a distance.

Located just north of Amsterdam, it’s easily one of the most unique hotels in Europe.

Would you stay in a hotel that looks like this?

If you’re planning a trip to Fujikawaguchiko, skip the lakeside resorts and head into the quiet woods. Villa Mine is a newly built architectural retreat that feels like a love letter to Japanese design.

It’s limited to only one group per day, meaning you have a private lawn, a campfire space, and a front-row seat to Mt. Fuji all to yourself.

The villa is fully winter-ready with underfloor heating, making it just as cozy during the February snow as it is during the spring cherry blossoms.

Would you rather stay in a traditional Ryokan or a modern Design Villa like this? Personally, the combination of underfloor heating and Tendo Mokko furniture makes this a winner for me.

Found this review where someone called their PMS choice a no brainer mainly because of how easy the platform is plus how solid the support team is.

Honestly, that part hit. A lot of tools look great until something breaks and you’re stuck waiting 2 days for a reply..

Integrations and UI matter, sure, but support kinda decides whether you stay or leave.

What’s been your experience? Anyone switched platforms mainly because of support?
