Personally I could care less about location. I want a good gym in the hotel, microwave, fridge in my room and a van that is on time. I however totally understand that I am just one person and my tastes and views don’t align with everyones. Some people would rather have a 30 min van ride to a better location.
Overall though I feel like the general quality of our hotels has improved.
I guess what bugs me about this particular hotel/overnight is that we used to stay at a hotel across the street (so essentially the same location). It wasnt quite as “nice” but certainly well beyond nice enough and we got a two room suite with an in room microwave/fridge, a very good free breakfast, free drinks in the evening, and I was never asked to leave the hotel 40 min earlier than necessary (before 6am no less) because the van was busy. But boy do people love this nice hotel.
