There's at least one Fairfield in Anaheim that doesn't have a free breakfast (in fact, I don't think any sort of breakfast). And I once stayed at a small-town Hampton that had moldy bagels in their breakfast buffet.

So i suggest you not assume that all those brands you mentioned other than BW are 100% consistent and don't need to be researched. Yes, perhaps they're more consistent, but not 100% consistent.
