So you're saying it's better to stay at an independent local hotel than a chain outlet?

Paul, I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!!! You basically wrote what I felt for my entire career in hospitality! I worked for Hilton for 5 years and the way you described the canned loyalty programs is so spot on.

Aside from my fine dining career you linked to, I also was a travel writer and reviewer for 10 years (independently) and I have experience INCREDIBLE hospitality. Let me invite you to read this older post I wrote and you'll understand:
