After spending a couple of weeks in Frederick, MD, we moved on to Ocean City, MD for the month of November. We booked so long there because I knew I'd be extremely busy leading up to Thanksgiving. I run a website called GC Galore which covers every gift card deal available and … [Read more...] about 1 Month In Ocean City, MD – Here’s What We Did

Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Cleveland / Independence, Ohio
After spending a month in Cincinnati, Shae, Truffles and I made our way a few hours north-east to Cleveland. We'd briefly visited Cleveland in the first year of our 50 state road trip, but that was when we were staying with friends in Mansfield, so we didn't end up seeing much of … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Cleveland / Independence, Ohio
Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Tucson-Central, Arizona
After spending a month in Louisiana on our 50 state road trip, we headed west as our next state was Arizona. Our first stop there was Tucson and when looking into our accommodation options, I was surprised at how expensive everything was. Hotels and Airbnbs were all $125+ per … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Tucson-Central, Arizona
Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Biloxi, Mississippi
After spending 10 nights in Jackson, our final stop in Mississippi was Biloxi. We'd never visited Mississippi before and the only thing I knew of Biloxi was that there were several casinos. I was therefore picturing it being tacky, but Shae and I actually loved it … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Biloxi, Mississippi
Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Memphis/Primacy Parkway, Tennessee
When looking at our accommodation options for Memphis, we didn't have many potential choices that fit our budget cash-wise. Thankfully Hyatt came to the rescue with three Hyatt Place properties in Memphis that were all only 5,000 points per night. It looked like they were all … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Memphis/Primacy Parkway, Tennessee
Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Chantilly/Dulles Airport South, Virginia
During our recent visit to Washington D.C., we decided to stay 12 nights at the Hyatt Place Chantilly/Dulles Airport South. In hindsight, that was a bit of a mistake. Not because the hotel was terrible, but because it was a pain driving into the city each day. Instead, I wish … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Chantilly/Dulles Airport South, Virginia
Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Roanoke, Virginia
When planning out our time in Virginia on our 50 state road trip, we booked a 6 night stay at the Hyatt Place Roanoke. I made a mistake with our hotel reservation in Richmond though, so we booked an extra day in Roanoke at the beginning of the visit. Shae and I were … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Roanoke, Virginia
Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Milford/New Haven, Connecticut
When planning out our 3.5 weeks in Connecticut, I was considering a 2 week stay at the Hyatt House Shelton seeing as that would give us a kitchen in our room. However, they didn't have award availability for the entire two weeks we'd be in the area, so that option wasn't … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Milford/New Haven, Connecticut
Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Lexington, Kentucky
The final stop on our 6 week visit to Kentucky during our 50 state road trip was Lexington. We'd originally planned to stay 5-10 nights, then those 5-10 nights became 13. Shae subsequently booked an activity near Lexington for my birthday, so we ended up staying there for 16 … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Hyatt Place Lexington, Kentucky
Hotel Review: Hyatt Place London Heathrow Airport
Having spent 11 days seeing friends and family around England, it was time for us to head to Amsterdam for a few days. Our flight was due to leave London Heathrow Airport at 11 am, but we'd most recently been in Ellesmere Port in the northwest of England (near Liverpool). … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Hyatt Place London Heathrow Airport
