Love it or hate it, John et al are actually living in hotels full-time. I find that perspective far more valuable than the cut-and-paste from corporate marketing other larger websites are prone to.
When you stay a lot in hotels, you realise that IHG simply isn't competitive when it comes to elite benefits and in the absence of lucrative Accelerate promos, the earn/burn isn't there either. Is that biased, or just telling people what they may not know?
