A stay at The Barnett in New Orleans (Part 2)
“Is that dander in the couch?” As I went through my room at The Barnett in New Orleans to document my travels, excitedly, my stomach turned. Instead of learning about all of the details to give a better review, I started analyzing the space for cleanliness. Then there was a screwdriver under the table. Just…

Equinox Hotel is becoming one of my favorites for this reason
I previously stayed using the Science of Sleep package, but I had a sneaking suspicion that the package didn’t add all that much to my experience. I wanted to know what the “regular experience” was.

Okay, you could pay me stay at Populus Denver
The other day this icebreaker question popped up on the screen at the meeting: If you were given $10 million to do any job in the world, regardless of your skill set, what would you do?” I immediately thought, I’d be a travel writer. Sorry, let me be more specific. I would be a professional…
