The Laylow Waikiki is one of the newest hotels in Hawaii, and is also one of my favorites. The Laylow Waikiki is one of the newest hotels in Hawaii.  It’s also the newest Marriott in Hawaii, as well as the first Autograph Collection hotel on Oahu.  And as a Marriott loyalist , it was a hotel I really wanted to check out.

I’m still doing the best I can (short of gutting the whole thing) to make it feel cleaner, fresher and generally less awful, and my latest improvement measure was taking care of the undeniably revolting perma - mildew situation inside the bathtub/shower area. I realize the photo above might not look like much of an “after,” but let’s consider where we started: I know. It was really gross. Believe me, even after scrubbing everything with bleach and hot water, this was as clean as it got. There were loose tiles (hence the taped-up garbage bag, an attempt to keep water from getting inside of the wall) and failing grout, and nearly all of the caulk had gone permanently black . The outer layer of caulk was actually clear silicone, and I’m thinking the mildew likely came from the first layer of caulk having been applied over even older “infected” caulk without properly preparing the area first. Want to take a closer look? I’m sor...

Here are 19 things that millennials are killing. Beer © Provided by Business Insider Inc In late July, Goldman Sachs downgraded both Boston Beer Company and Constellation Brands based on the data that younger consumers prefer wine and spirits to beer, as well as the fact that they're drinking less alcohol than older generations more generally. Beer penetration fell 1 % from 2016 to 2017 in the US market, while both wine and spirits were unmoved, according to Nielsen ratings. While some argue that calling a 1% d...
