Mistakes Hotels Make During Transitions

Mistakes Hotels Make During Transitions

Gotta love the changeover from summer to fall. One minute you are wearing a tank top, the next minute, you’re in your hoody and jeans. Seasonal transitions hardly happen like flipping a light switch. Instead, they are like dimmers adjusting between almost off and...

Maybe it’s been you who has said, “I need to cut back on drinking” or maybe you have a friend who’s been sober for years.  Without sounding like your mom,  we all know alcohol can impair your judgement and your ability to drive a car or do other motor functions....
