I’ll be the first to admit I’m not a tour guy. I don’t like doing tours because I like to move at my own pace and do my own thing. However, I took an all day tour of Rome with the Tour Guy and I was fairly impressed. It showed all the relevant places you’d … More Full Day Tour of Rome (not an ad)
It’s hard to say this since the St. Regis is one of, if not my absolute favorite hotel brand. It always exceepds expectations and never disappoints. The design is perfectly my taste and the service is always incredible. However this time, the brand fell short. Far short. And for something I felt was standard at … More St. Regis Rome – Review

As expected during Covid times, the hotel has made changes to its offerings but does a great job with the limitations. The downside was the service which I can only describe as … More Tijuana Marriott – Review

Located a few blocks from Union Square, this hotel hits all the spots in terms of location. However, due to the current Covid climate, it was impossible to get a feel for how the hotel would operate under normal circumstances.
