Review: Courtyard King Kamehameha’s Kona Beach Hotel
To sum up my time at the Courtyard King Kamehameha’s Kona Beach Hotel, it was frustrating, rewarding, and frustrating. My family stayed 5 nights on points at this hotel. While it is beach front with an almost private beach it is not the most functioning hotel. Marriot Status: 10/10Services: 6/10Amenities: 6/10Location: 9/10 Prior to My […]
Review: TownePlace Suites Colorado Springs Garden Of The Gods
Afterall it is a TownePlace Suites but is it a good one? Short answer is that yes. My grades aren’t on 5-star butler service but are reflective of the services you would expect at the TownePlace. Overall the TownePlace Suites Colorado Springs Garden Of The Gods was a good hotel for the cost and location […]
Review: The Residence Inn/Manhattan Times Square
It’s what you want because its practical but service is horrible. Unfortunately my 10 night stay at this Residence Inn Manhattan Times Square hotel was not very good. It did have some upsides including its location and a breakfast option if you manage to get there in time! This is far from luxury compared to […]

Review: The St. Regis New York
The St. Regis New York hotel is an exceptional city hotel with classic luxury. This category 8 hotel running at a minimum of a ~$1,000-1500 per night was a no-brainer to book on points for an extended long weekend in the city. As you might be aware, Marriott is offering redemption rates for category 8 hotels […]
Business Review: Marriott at Brooklyn Bridge
The Marriott is the third hotel I have reviewed in Brooklyn New York. As a Category 5 hotel, it is much superior to the Sheraton Brooklyn, also a category 5, and the Aloft Brooklyn hotels. Of course it is no St. Regis but for your business hotel its a great option with a very respectable lounge. […]
Business Review: Aloft New York Brooklyn
The Aloft in Brooklyn is a more up to date hotel then its next door neighbour, Sheraton Brooklyn. The hotel is what you would expect from an Aloft and there is nothing special about this hotel. The only complaint I have is the air conditioner. It is very loud. For this reason alone I would […]

Review: The Athenee Hotel – The Luxury Collection
I recently stayed for a few nights at The Athenee Hotel – The Luxury Collection in Bangkok with high expectations as this hotel was recommended to me by multiple friends and colleagues. When you first walk in you are wowed by the grand entrance. Overall the hotel was very nice and the lounge was pretty […]
