I agree completely. I'm a big SpringHill Suites fan and stay at them often. They are well designed, comfortable, colorful, and they award full MR points unlike Residence Inn and TownPlace Suites.

As others have mentioned, not all SHS are the same. Some were purchased and converted from another chain, and some have older suite designs. Those aren't as nice. But the newer ones are just great, IMO.
