Hotel Review: Staybridge Suites Temecula, CA
After arriving at our Airbnb in Warner Springs, we discovered that their internet wasn't working and likely wouldn't be back up for at least a couple of days.

Hotel Review: Holiday Inn & Suites Phoenix Airport North, AZ
If you'd told me a few months ago that we'd make a special effort to stay at an airport hotel, I probably wouldn't have believed you. I would've been wrong though as that's what happened in April and May. After visiting Tucson again and getting our first COVID vaccinations, we … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Holiday Inn & Suites Phoenix Airport North, AZ
