Not meaning to upstage but I too have a traveling hotel covid story . I flew to Florence Italy overnight on 12 February. By the morning of the 14th i was unusually tired but chalked it ip to jet lag. That night, in lovely hotel that felt more like a private home, we stayed in for room service because I just couldn’t go out. A 12 euro tray of prosciutto, cheeses, olives snd breads was delivered to our coffee table. The next morning, still not wanting to move out of bed in Italy!!! I knew something was wrong. My husband picked up a test and in no time it proved to be positive. This extraordinary good for to have my first case of Covid in a beautiful small hotel in Florence Italy. They delivered thermometers, asked if They could have s doctor come in, and continued to deliver room service. By the following day I was able to leave and move on, but felt lingering effects for 2 weeks, dragging myself about. Still, i will never forget….. Casa Howard in Florence. The place that made even covid feel like a luxury experience!

Sorry about the nasty case of Covid. Never fun to be sick and alone and far away from home.
