  1. I really enjoy watching your videos, always get so much great information. I do look at reviews, including Trip Advisor but tend to look at sites as well. Trip Advisor are not verified reviews, meaning that anyone can put a review, whether they have stayed at the hotel or not. Expedia, Priceline and other online booking site reviews are verified, meaning that the reviewer booked with the OTA and actually stayed at the hotel. Just something to think about when looking at reviews.

  2. That was extremely informative. We have used google maps before but have never thought about google earth, so thank you. One thing though to consider is we like to book hotels using points from the Chase Reserve credit card so it’s not always practical to go directly to a hotel site. But still very informative and will use these tactics in the future.

  3. I also use travel search sites to look at options but book directly with hotel or airline. It’s great for comparisons but I have learned hard way that when you have an issue you often can’t deal direct with the hotel/ airline.

  4. I always use Google Earth for doing a thorough recon on the hotel and the surrounding area with regards to the availability of dining, shopping and walk ability for convenience and overall safety. This is critically important when flying to a location and being without a personal vehicle. Let’s face it, these days, nearly every major city has at least one “No-Go” zone and it is prudent to avoid being in it.

  5. Awe-some content. This is really great info. We do a lot of this. Pegman is a great! Trip advisor is my go to! Real pictures alway make the choice for us. The walking option – yes! Good stuff! 👍🏻👍🏻

  6. Right there with ya on booking direct with hotels. For the many reasons you mentioned. Sharon is the only person involved in my bookings (cruise).
    Love the street view . I used today to see if my 10 minute walk to dinner was up a steep Seattle hill or not

  7. Thanks Jamie, have definitely started putting in address pre departure… so helpful. What’s a safe cheap area to stay in, in Miami please? Asking from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

  8. Hey I was just wondering do you know any good hotels in Seattle Washington that is good near Pier 91 we going on Carnival next August and we are trying to find a good hotel to stay at the night before the cruise thanks for any help that you can do for me love your videos

  9. Just curious if you guys have a premium travel card? I have several, but my favorite is the Amex Platinum which gives you status with both Marriott and Hilton (you would have had free breakfast with the hotel you just featured if you had that card). It has a hefty annual fee, but comes with loads of other benefits including airport lounge access, global entry, tsa precheck, status with several rental car companies so you don’t have to wait in line, and too many other to name here. As someone who flys at least a dozen times a year, it has come in super handy. Great content!

  10. This channel has helped me plan cruises probably more than any other cruise channel. I agree about the Hilton hotels, too, as most include breakfast & shuttle. I will need to update to using Google Earth instead of the map based on your info. I definitely book a hotel that is located in walking distance to meals, pharmacies, banks & liquor/grocery stores 99% of the time, not interested in paying for rideshares much. Fantastic vid & keep up the good work.

  11. Thanks Jamie. I am glad to see I do almost all the things you suggest. I try to learn from as many folks and implement their best practices based on collective learning. I do all our booking myself directly with hotels, airlines cruise lines etc…after exhaustive research. Kind of my own private travel advisor and my commission is the piece of mind of no surprises (hopefully). Thank you to you and Sharon for sharing your knowledge and experience and allowing us to learn from it. Hope all is well and stay happy and healthy.
