Uh Tim, if you saw what I posted above I DID post "Residence Inn San Diego" (and yes I included the quotes), and I got the error code which prompted me to post in this thread.

Wingnut - if I post Residence San Diego I could get someone's home. And are we saying no one can EVER do a post re: Residence Inn in ANY city?

Guess what - Residence Inn plus xx is a valid search, even if this engine has a problem w/ it - fix the search engine. I'd get it if it was ONLY "Inn", but it's not. It's Inn + qualifying info. Geesh. BTW - not to digress, but Hampton Inn could face same problems.

Granted I'm not techie, but I think the search engine should be able to figure out Residence Inn San Diego. Heck after the "" stuff, I even did Residence+Inn+San+Diego hoping that would help. And every other combo I could think of.

And wingnut, using your examples above there should have been no reason you came up w/ the search & I didn't - the "inn" existed in every search (even w/o quotes, & then + then fill in the blank - i tried several before posting here, so as not to seem like a nimrod).

Geesh.
