For a good few years thereafter, MOST of the Four Points I stayed in used Seattle's Best in the guestrooms.

Nowadays, however, I almost always encounter Maxwell House and -- occasionally -- a no-name generic brand that is undrinkable.

I'd like to see a brand standard that requires a quality drinkable brand that's appropriate for 2010 tastes.
