This characteristically happens if all the daemons are busy servicing other people's requests. The server you are accessing is not particularly fast. The other xapi servers are faster and can handle more capacity.
Most people use the xapi instance on the telascience server: http://osmxapi.hypercube.telascience.org/api/0.5/<http://xapi.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/*%5Bamenity=hotel%5D%5Bbbox=-71.089,42.359,-71.087,42.361%5D> There's also a 0.6 instance running on that server at: http://osmxapi.hypercube.telascience.org/api/0.6/<http://xapi.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/*%5Bamenity=hotel%5D%5Bbbox=-71.089,42.359,-71.087,42.361%5D> I'll update the platform status page as it's not quite accurate at the moment. 80n The 0.5 service is serving data as at 17th April.
