Travel Tuesday: Aparthotel Adagio Serris (Hipark) Hotel Review
It's now been a couple of years since I started doing these Travel Tuesday columns, which have now included a number of hotel reviews. Naturally, as a result, when I stay at hotels these days, I know pretty much from the jump that I'll be writing a review about it. Yet, I realized that there's...
Travel Tuesday: Paris Las Vegas Hotel Room Review
So far this year, I've done far more traveling than I anticipated. Because of that, I nearly forgot about one of the entries for my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™. This past January, before going to real Paris, my wife and I spent five nights at the Paris Hotel and Casino in Sin City. Thus, I'm...
Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace Hotel at night
Travel Tuesday: Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace Hotel Review (Walt Disney World)
A couple of weeks ago, I shared a look at my Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser adventure. But, before that unique (and pricey) experience, my wife and I spent three nights in more conventional accommodations, booking a stay at the Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace. Located in the Disney Springs Area of Walt Disney World, the...
Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser Hotel
Travel Tuesday: Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser Hotel Review
Well, it finally happened. Months after my friends and I booked our stay aboard the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser at Walt Disney World, our adventure took place last week. Having returned to Earth, I have a lot of thoughts on this pricey and unique experience — but I thought I’d start by sharing a review...

Travel Tuesday: Hotel New York - The Art of Marvel Hotel Review
For years, my wife and I have been big fans of Marvel and specifically the Marvel Cinematic Universe. More recently, we've also come to love Disneyland Paris, with the resort ranking among our favorite Disney Parks in the world (we even have annual passes for this resort instead of the domestic ones). That's why we've...

Travel Tuesday: Mirage Resort King Room Hotel Review
Earlier this month, I had the chance to check out the 2022 CES convention... so you know what that means: it's time for another installment of my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™. Today's entry is actually a tad different as the situation is rather unique. See, rather than checking out a hotel because they have something...

Travel Tuesday: Luxor Tower Elite King and NoMad Classic King Hotel Room Reviews
After a short break, I'm back with more of my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™. Technically, this is actually a new season of the Bonanza as it comes from my latest trip to Sin City in October 2021. And while I typically like to give in-depth looks at hotel properties and the room products I stay...

Travel Tuesday: Disney's Bay Lake Tower Grand Villa Hotel Review
Fun fact: when you walk into certain Walt Disney World hotels, the Cast Members will greet you by saying, "Welcome home." After nearly two years away, I felt that welcome when my wife and I had the chance to stay at WDW this past weekend. Making the event even more special, our friend managed to...
The Signature at MGM Grand
Travel Tuesday: The Signature at MGM Grand Hotel Review
Over the past few months, I've been recalling my experiences at various hotels as part of my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™. Today, that series comes to a close (for now) as I look at the last location we stayed at during our most recent trip: The Signature at MGM Grand. This is a property I've...
NoMad (Park MGM) Las Vegas Hotel
Travel Tuesday: NoMad (Park MGM) Hotel Review
Welcome back to yet another Travel Tuesday as I continue my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™ after a brief sneaker-centric detour. Today, we'll be venturing over to NoMad — a boutique hotel inside of Park MGM (which was previously Monte Carlo). Specifically, NoMad's rooms occupy the top four floors of the tower, but NoMad guests also...

Travel Tuesday: Bellagio Amex Fine Hotel & Resorts Booking Review
Welcome back to yet another Travel Tuesday and the continuation of my Las Vegas Content Bonanza™. For this installment, I'll be sharing my recent experience staying at one of the Strip's crown jewels: the Bellagio. With the property recently updating some of its rooms, I figured I'd finally stop in to see what this famed...
room at the Luxor
Travel Tuesday: Luxor Remodeled Pyramid Room (and Tower Room) Hotel Review
When my wife and I both reached fully vaccinated status, we knew exactly what we wanted to do next: head to Las Vegas. Sure enough, that's what we did this past week (just ahead of everyone else doing the same thing, apparently), checking out several hotels in the process. Those reviews will be coming in...

Travel Tuesday: Delta's New "Extra" Fares Join "Classic" Options
In marketing, there's the "good, better, best" concept. For example, think of how Old Navy, Gap, and Banana Republic are all different brand tiers of one company or how Apple has a budget iPhone 16e, the standard iPhone 16, and then the top-end iPhone 16 Pro. Well, it now seems as though Delta is taking...
I've Racked Up $75 in Free Starbucks from This App
A few months ago, I came across an ad on Instagram that said I could get free Starbucks each week just for 1) being a homeowner and 2) having good credit. Naturally, I was skeptical. In fact, although I started to fill out the information needed to get this deal, I put it aside for...
PupRing Review: Is it Legit? Worth It?
Since my wife and I got our dog Rigby, we've slowly but surely come to fit every stereotype of a modern pet owner. Yes, 90% of the photos on my phone are of her. My wife and I constantly send each other videos of dogs that remind us of Rigby. And somehow our dog spends...
Apple Card is Adding an Uber Perk (While Losing Another Benefit)
For months, Apple Card customers and observers have been waiting for updates on the card's future. After all, reports that the tech company and Goldman Sachs have been looking to end their partnership have been swirling for some time. Plus, if/when the product does change hands, it's expected that some major adjustments to its offerings...
