I've a bunch or addresses which belong to various other resources via polymorphic association
belongs_to :addressable, :polymorphic => true
and my resource, lets say its a Hotel
has_one :address, :as => :addressable
I can search my address data no problem, find every address in a 20 mile radius of my search string for example
@addresses = Address.near(params[:search],20, :order => :distance).page params[:page]
I'm really struggling to join the resource i.e. the hotel info, I can link through to a details page, but I'd like to show the name of the hotel in my results for example.
I thought using :include may have helped thus:
@addresses = Address.near(params[:search],20, :order => :distance, :include => :hotel).page params[:page]
.. but no luck
Any advice greatly appreciated.

OK I figured it out with a little help from a colleague
@addresses = Address.where(addressable_type: 'Hotel').near(params[:search],20, :order => :distance).includes(:addressable).page params[:page]
Hope it might help someone else!
