I disagree. I would say 9 times out of 10 a Hampton beats a Fairfield and a HGI beats a Courtyard. The HGI have become my favorite properties. They are generally new, have microwaves and mini fridges in all rooms, and as a Diamond I get free breakfast along with 5 bucks to spend in the pantry.
I do agree that the difference between CY and FI is becoming less defined. Remember when Courtyards actually had courtyards?
