What’s up With the Hotel Stars?
Before attending TravelCon, It would be a struggle waking up and figuring out what to write. This morning, I jumped out of bed, ready to write. I have so many ideas that I don't know where to put them all. Maybe I'll make this newsletter daily instead of weekly. Jk
Below is a table of the popular hotel rating systems in America and what they mean:
Please Note:
Hotel ratings are not to be confused with user reviews! Hotel ratings cover facilities and amenities, while user reviews are user-generated feedback.
Internationally and domestically, there are many standards for rating hotels.
A lower-rated property doesn't correlate with cleanliness. (But I'm not taking any chances.)
My Preference:
I like 3-star hotels because they have a good mix of value (amenities and price point.)
When traveling, I don't need much because I'm always out. But cleanliness is a significant concern for me. If I see a rodent in the hotel, call the fire department. Jk 👀
