ad | As someone who loves hosting parties and holidays at my house, I wish I could house everyone who wants to come and visit at once, but with a small home it just isn’t possible. Quality time with loved ones is wonderful, especially around the holidays, but it’s also great not to have to share a bathroom!

But no worries, this year hotels around Ohio are offering discounted rates for rooms to help out and give us locals another “extra room” for guests. In Cleveland, the hotels that you can receive up to 25% off bookings are:

✨ Fidelity Hotel - 15% off
✨ Hilton Cleveland Downtown - 25% off
✨ Holiday Inn Cleveland Clinic - 10% off
✨ InterContinental Cleveland - 10% off
✨ The Ritz-Carlton Cleveland - 25% off

Are you hosting over the holidays this year? Tap the link in the comments below to book these discounted rates! 🎅🏻

a day at cedar point 🎢

enjoyed a fun day on a recent trip to sandusky, ohio!

i haven’t been in a while and it was great to see how bright and colorful the park is looking. it’s right on lake erie so the views are amazing too!

one highlight was the slushie flight from the upstairs bar at the new grand pavilion building. the food there was delicious and the line went really quickly. there’s a patio upstairs with beautiful lake views that we loved.

it was also fun seeing people fly by in the newly updated top thrill 2 (which goes up to 120 mph!), and seeing the new tilt coaster, siren’s curse, which is set to open june 28th.

i definitely recommend a day trip to cedar point! and if 1 day isn’t enough, you can stay there overnight at hotel breakers and enjoy more time in the park and on the beach!

thanks for hosting me and 💛
