Places, Travel & Geography
Cities, countries, landmarks, bodies of water, directions, and other geographic connections. Each guide labels its editing status and explains the clue connections.
How to test this connection
Ask whether the clues name locations or things associated with a location. Then look for a clue outside the first apparent industry, such as art beside food or room access beside breakfast.
A common wrong turn
An association is not a universal promise. A feature common in hotels need not be offered by every hotel, and a country's cultural association need not be exclusive to that country.
A worked comparison
In #860, keycards alone could suggest offices. Toiletries and continental breakfast make a lodging context stronger; room service supports hotels rather than workplaces.
