This is true. We have some people who just enjoy being heard or must live in a palace with servants doing their cleaning at home. I have had very few issues in my time here. My pet peeve is the iron/ironing board. I have had a Comfort Inn have a nice tight board with a new, clean iron vs. Hilton or Sheraton try to milk a build-up encrusted iron that ruined a shirt. There was that place in SWF a while back with the room that looked like a forensic investigation had taken place. Oh well, we have the Hyatt House now, pretty nice there.

That new ISP hotel treats us great though, and it's a short Uber to really good restaurant/drink options.

Just to follow up on what everyone else is saying, our hotels are usually Holiday Inn Express or Hilton Garden Inn-quality. Location/fun is a different question entirely, but our short overnights don't really give us time for fun

I like going down to the Dublin deck in summer. There is a killer Portuguese pave you can walk to from the hotel as well. Great food.

Anything down in Patchogue is going to be a lot of fun, that meetball place is always a good place to start and the brick house is great as well. But they're about 20 other places walking distance from both of them.

Montreal hotel was one of the nicest I’ve stayed at in a decade here. And it’s full for crew members from other airlines. I was so impressed w the Porter crews. They definitely take pride in their appearance and it was impressive. We failed miserably compared to that dash operator. But, then again they also have first class on their Qs and dual Huds. All the fancy hoodis’ Sheraton up there has everything you need, salon spa fitness center and quality foodw 20% discount. Rooms extremely clean, all king beds. Go to Bishop street if you need a tasty strong ale.

No the old hotel prior to my time here.. hotel Ithaca is great! Great food options and a Vietnamese place that's almost as good as Saigon.

The only thing PDT stands out in is the fastest flow for a NH.

PDT and Envoy lag is QOL.

WO across the board lack in pay.

Endeavor left everyone in the dust when it came to this TA. Unless you live in base or have a very specific situation people are crazy to choose anywhere but Endeavor.
