Question for travel teams - does everyone always stay in the same hotel? If so who decides and is there some standard set on what type of hotel?
I ask because I got all sorts of crap about staying on my own last week because I didn't want to stay at the same place everyone else was at. It was a dive and for $30 more I could stay at a hotel I was 1,000 percent more comfortable in. Everyone else stayed in a Days Inn for $69, I chose the Holiday Inn Express for $99 that was less than 1/2 mile away.
Also, I travel a lot for work and get lots of Holiday Inn Express points and combined with work travel and softball, can usually pay for 10-12 nights a year.
