If we're going to use trivial numbers of data points to determine trends across an entire global brand, my recent Hampton stays have been great. QED!
Key word: "ASKS"
And, I believe it is. Based upon my experiences. And I believe eliminating a service like daily housekeeping is the definition of declining service and quality. And it shows in the cleanliness of the rooms.
