Hotel Good Deed

Where: St. Johns, Antigua and Barbuda

The Trade Winds Hotel in Antigua is a special Hotel Heaven, the do-gooder kind.

While it's not technically a "green hotel," it is recycling and has made use of it's tired linens by donating them to one institution that doesn't care about thread count: prison.

The prison's superintendent promised to put the donation to good use (like forcing prisoners to do more laundry), and commended the hotel's charity.

It's a wonder that Martha Stewart didn't come up with this do-gooder idea while in the pen.

As for the hotel itself, what it lacks in beach it makes up for in views. Think the opposite of prison. Dear inmates reading this blog, we're sorry to rub it in, but we hear that:

Rooms are spacious and airy so that you don't feel trapped. You have your own private balcony to enjoy the views and sunshine. The rooms come with ceiling fans as well as air-conditioning (in case your need it), satellite TV, a mini fridge and on-suite bathroom.

...Not to mention all new linen.
