    We travel the country doing Walmart remodels, I enjoy staying at IHG Hotels everywhere we go. The rooms are always enjoyable and clean, the beds are more comfortable than most Hotels I've stayed at. There's also the convenience of the refrigerator and microwave and digital device charging stations. The Tv's are appropriately sized with updated flat screens, and the A/C units and thermostat are newer models and work efficiently. This particular stay was 19 hours from home in east Texas, I was able to book my rooms easily with the app. I was also able to use the app to notify the front desk that we would be arriving late. The hotel staff had our room keys ready when we arrived and we had a quick check in. We received Waters and snacks for being rewards members as well. I can't see anything here that needs improvement, great place to relax from the road!
