The food was nothing spectacular. I made a comment about the desserts being really watery and several people commented that it's a gelatin that is used. I can always find something to eat, but I've stayed at Secrets and Sandals and thought the food was better at both properties.

Yes, the downtown has many cool restaurants (no chains). The atmosphere is a college town feeling with students bustling about and lots of trendy shopping.

Have any suggestions on eats and coffee? Also hotels you'd recommend staying? Any suggestions at all really haha thanks so much.

@@mitchellgraves2774 I have a few Ann Arbor hotel reviews on my channel. I like The Graduate if you want to walk to campus. I've also stayed at the Bell Tower. The Hyatt Place is popular, but the next time I go, I think I'll stay at EVEN. Sweetwaters coffee is very popular and I prefer it when I'm in A2. I also like Cinnaholic. I like Isalita Cantina Mexicana, Jolly Pumpkin, Zingerman's or Zingerman's Roadhouse, and Frita Batido's (hamburgers). There are some good restaurants that aren't national chains, but have other locations in Michigan (Hopcat, Condado Taco, Jolly Pumpkin). These are all pretty midrange pricing, but Ann Arbor prices are higher in general. There are several upscale restaurants if you're there to celebrate. Let me know if you visit. I'd be interested to hear what you think:)

@JuliaLives1111 Thanks for all the much needed info! I'm planning on going in October so I'm trying to get it planned out as best I can with suggestions from ones that have been there in the area. Planning on visiting a few sites in the Detroit area but thought ann arbor would be a better place to stay. Trying to plan a night in Chicago also before I get there and then back down to Louisville for a day or so before returning home.. If you had to choose which one would you Say had the best accommodations for the rates?

@@mitchellgraves2774 If you're looking to stay in Ann Arbor, watch out for prices around sporting events. The hotel prices will soar if there is an event that weekend, in which case, you'd be better off staying closer to Detroit. I found the prices in Chicago to be higher than expected when I stayed there last summer. I stayed at the Westin and ended up paying around $580 for one night, which is higher than what I've paid in the past.

I think the hotel was busier than usual with families when I stayed there due to the Embassy Suites closure for renovations. I would stay there again, but I paid a high rate due to the timing. Right now the rates are only $200 per night.

Sounds like I need to visit again!

I'm armed with the stripper and going to take a crack at it today. Thank you--I'll take all the advice I can get:)

@@JuliaLives1111 Let me know how it works! BTW, I enjoy your videos and all the varied items you test. I first stumbled upon your channel when we were booking a trip to Sanibel, and we were thinking of staying at the Marriott Sanibel Island Resort. We ended up going (shortly before Ian wreaked the place) and we had a great time. Your video helped us decide...thank you!

@@jrad1316 Turned out great with the stripper. Totally different experience! I'm glad you made it to Sanibel before the devastation. It's a beautiful area. I'll continue to post reviews. I find them helpful myself!

@@JuliaLives1111 Good for you!

I wish more people where like that let people live! If it’s not hurting you our others let people have fun. It’s the beach after all.

I haven't lived in an apartment for 30 years, so I guess I had forgotten how much "fun" it is.

Anything outside is fine by me (music, people getting so hammered they can barely walk, yelling, screaming, etc.). It's their vacation:).

@@JuliaLives1111 oh my goodness please understand "apartment living" is not fun lol I'm glad to live in a house trust me. I just don't get bothered when It comes to hotels. I say this i love what you are doing I am now a sub for you so thanks

@@JuliaLives1111 agreed

That's perfect:).

I wasn’t counting macros, but that would probably be a good measurement to determine if this is enough food.

I didn’t try the buffet, but all the food I had was tasty.

The gardens are beautiful in person. Enjoy your trip!

@@JuliaLives1111 do they charge for just seeing the gardens ?

@@tori.walkergulley No, you can walk around for free. There are a lot of restaurants and bars. There's an ice cream stand and a cinnamon roll stand, too, if you're in the mood to get a small bite. Tickets to the Delta River Boat are $15.99, but anyone can take a cruise, even if you're not a guest. It's a huge property--you can spend a long time walking around if you take in every area.

I would contact the hotel directly at 1-615-889-1000 to get specific information about accessibility.

There are definitely elevators and ramps. I'm not sure about access to golf carts, but the staff went above and beyond to accommodate requests. I would contact the resort about golf carts. There is a shuttle service to and from the Bali Collection.

Thank you so much for the kind words❤

I hope you all have the best time! Beautiful property and excellent location.

The resorts have chairs set up on the beach, but there’s no security or anyone preventing people from walking on the beach.

Great advice--thank you!

You’re correct! He played beautifully❤️

I just examined mine and the side table doesn’t appear to fold down. I looked underneath and it doesn’t seem to have a mechanism to allow it to fold.

I took a taxi to Sanur one night and it was very lively! I went to Nusa Dua after Ubud to slow down, so it was perfect for my needs. I thought businesses opened late, too. Starbucks didn't open until 10:00 a.m.☕😳

I'm so glad this is now a historical site and available to the public. Definitely worth a visit. Thank you for the kind feedback❤

Yes…. Thank you for video…. 19 years and 6 months here…. All because of these two men and this house ♥️. We Cannot tforget the coffee pot I would love to visit some day 💯❤️💯

@@lisaannevaccarezza6122 Sobriety is a beautiful miracle. Friend of Bill W. myself (17 years). I would love to visit during Founders' Day. It's this coming weekend. There's a play put on by people in recovery. This year the play is called "Snow White and The Seven Character Defects."

I love this idea. The walk is scenic and beautiful. I hope your trip is fantastic❤️

I couldn't agree more! I hope something is done to save this iconic mall. I was really shocked to see the vacancies on the higher floors. So many empty spaces. I'd love to return and find it full of life again❤

Have a great trip❤️

Taxis are everywhere, but depending on where you're going, you may want to book it with the concierge if it's a distance. There is a lot to see within walking distance as well. I went to the water temple and booked a taxi the day before.

We had a crew taking a dead tree down next door and you're right, most of them had a lung bomb hanging out of their mouth while they worked. But what about vapes? They've got such a strong hold on the younger generation. I don't know any kids who smoke, but plenty who vape. They vape walking down the hall at school and don't get caught.

@JuliaLives1111 Most of my friends don't smoke. But the ones I worked with during a time when they couldn't go outside to have a smoking break, all it showed me was that smoking just gives you a permanent caffeine withdrawal. May as well have coffee instead of a cigarette. But alcohol took you to Oz! Especially when you looked at your Rum bottle and wonder where it all went. Pirates are a VERY VERY bad influence btw.

@@anthonyruby2668 I don't think I know anyone who still smokes. Most of the ppl I knew still smoking tried to hide it. I lived next door to somebody for 10 years and didn't know they smoked until I walked past a canning jar full of butts in their garage and they sheepishly admitted they were a "closet smoker." I visited my son at his college frat house a few years ago on Easter and there was a half a fifth of grape MD20/20 in the living room. That will get you!

@@anthonyruby2668 Do people from Chicago really eat Little Caesars? Chicago is one of the greatest cities for pizza!

@@anthonyruby2668 I don't think I've ever had an entire energy drink. I've known more than one person who thought they were having a heart attack when they drank too many. Just a false alarm in each case!

I was editing my fifth box and noticed the price is now $95 for 6 meals. However, I have started accruing "rewards" with each box. For $95, I received $10 off of an add-on and a free wellness juice in addition to my box. I ordered chicken wings for the add-on and they ended up costing me $2.95.

@@JuliaLives1111 I'm assuming US dollars? I'm Canadian.

@@joedolenza7944 Yes, that's U.S. dollars. When I first tried to order, Google sent me to the Canadian site. I didn't realize it until I was typing in my address and didn't have an option for the state where I live. Factor must be popular in Canada, too!

Good point! I can only imagine what they're like when the pressure's on.

The architecture is beautiful and there is a lot of interesting history. Jackson Square was empty when I was there, but there's probably some activity again by now. I hope you have the best time!

Wow! Thank you for the information.

Yes, the view really brings it all home. I stayed at a hotel off the interstate in Arkansas. It was full of truck drivers. Something about a door from the outside leading directly into the room causes me to not feel completely safe.

@JuliaLives1111 I never really understood RV culture. No wonder how well you take care of it. By the time it gets to the break-even point of a hotel, the RV has to be like a Motel 6 room. (Probably the private jet feel of the passengers Probably make it worth it)

@JuliaLives1111 You can always tell the ones who love camping are the ones who don't get bit up to badly. If i went to war at any time in the past, i would have so died of malaria for sure from all my bites. Shoot! Not even! I'd probably get malaria by living a peaceful civilian life! That is if all the other Oregon Trail diseases didn't get me first.

@@anthonyruby2668 You're a Chicago native. Who gets bug bites in Chicago? Is West Nile a problem there?

@JuliaLives1111 forgot about West nile. Guess covid rose the bar on if you have to worry about a germ or not

No, but that's hilarious and true! I can get lost in UA-cam travel videos.

@JuliaLives1111 i mostly revisit places i been to on UA-cam. Got to save some things for going there live and in person. I do love those interstate off ramp photos that illustrate that it can be anywhere between sault ste marie and miami or between Boston and Barstow CA.

@@anthonyruby2668 I used to rely on Tripadvisor to plan vacations, but UA-cam is a great resource. Back in the '90's I used to get Apple Vacation brochures and planned everything out through a catalog. Things sure have evolved!

@JuliaLives1111 Don't forger AAA! LoL, they still around? You can get AAA services though insurance and travel through the net

@@anthonyruby2668 Yeah, they're still around. I'm not sure what the competitive edge would be. Towing is available on most auto insurance, if you don't mind risking the rates being increased if you ever need it.
