2) Hyatt - OMG...BEST PROGRAM EVER...WE LOVE YOU. There's a lot of kool aid drinking going on after 2 rounds of FFNs
3) Starwood - Platinum Benefits are eroding...wahhh...we're going to Hyatt.
4) Marriott - There's really not much complaining or anything. I think it's filled with dudes who just spend a lot of nights on the road.

Thoughts?
Pretty much agreed, I'd add:

5) Choice Hotels... utterly inconsistent, no real benefits for higher tiers
6) IC... WHY NO HOTELS IN HAWAII!


I've basically decided to move my business (and leisure) travel to Hyatt & SPG. Using Choice & IC only as backups.
