Cheers.
Well, that's the thing, isn't it?

I mean, this thread is discussing essentially how Courtyard has 'lost its way', so to speak. In order to understand whether it has, you have to understand what its 'way' was originally.

Whether it still answers the needs of the market it set forth to do way back when - well, that's for us to say, isn't it?

The one thing that is interesting to consider - an enormous amount of time and thought was put into developping the brand. I can't imagine they haven't deployed the same amount of consideration to renewing the brand today.
