Correct. Voco has NO brand standards, that is the point of it! Any old rubbish can be converted to Voco without any need for brand-standard air conditioning / gyms / room service / power showers etc.

The best example of this is old-style US hotels with external aircon units attached to windows. Most chains ban these as part of their 'brand standards' so a conversion brand is virtually the only choice the owner has.
