Wow, I didn't realize so many people lived Courtyard. I hate it. I stayed there week on and off for a few months.
The breakfast varies so much depending on where you are (at Fairfield, Residence, etc). I think it is hard to generalize about that. The Courtyard bistro obviously has better food that isn't free.
Oh yeah, nobody else hates the color scheme of Courtyard? I think it is just tacky.
