Hey Joe – great episode! One question – I can’t quite understand what Trevor says around 34:30 when he’s talking about the Budapest hotel and he compares it to something in London. What’s he talking about there?
Thanks!

Hey Michael – He’s talking about this hotel, which I had never heard of and just had to google lol – https://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/longh-jw-marriott-grosvenor-house-london/
I think he assumes we all know what it is 🙂 But the overall point is the hotel exceeded expectation, as does the grosvenor apparently!
Thanks for listening!
Ok thanks Joe! I’m always on the lookout for a great London hotel recommendation
