No, I'm not expecting too much. At CY and HGI you still have status recognition and restaurants/breakfast, etc. I woke up this morning and there is no newspaper outside the door (CY not only gives a paper, but they recognize my Marriott preference and put a WSJ in front of the door).
On this one *wood really got it all wrong. And by the way, in another thread there was some discussion of the laminate furnishings and how they would chip off. My room already has this problem - and the hotel has been open barely 3 weeks!!
