This has been discussed before, and everyone seems to think that Choice properties follow their own T&C's regarding what rooms have to be made available for award stays. I don't believe it.

I was looking around London props for another FTer who needs a room for 3 adults. Every London hotel was more than willing to sell me a room that could handle three adults, but not one of them would make such a room available for an award stay.

I'm sure I've run into the same thing with other props in Europe (the Clarion IFSC in Dublin was a notable exception).

It's also pretty clear that Choice corporate had little or no influence on their franchisees. Not sure how much they really care about this matter, either.

Anyhow, if this turns out to be true, what if anything can/should be done about it?
