Tips

It's possible to rent a room in America that doesn't meet your expectations since there's no unified official classification. You should also keep these things in mind when visiting the United States:

• Make a photocopy of your ID card in advance. Don't use the original passport, since it may get lost.
• Online hotel reservations are better. It's much more expensive to make reservations «at the desk», especially on weekends.
• Considering the vast distances in America, renting a car is the best way to get around if you're planning a vacation outside the big city.
• Americans like to figure out the direction to any point by the sides of the world, even on signs they write where west or east is. As a result, it is more convenient to use a smartphone navigator.

Americans have a special tipping situation. It's almost everywhere that tips are left. The guest decides how much incentive to give. Waiters usually get 15 to 20 percent of the check in respectable restaurants. Although a lot depends on where the tourist is staying.
