"The plan is this: Today's hectic traveler is looking for some bit of familiarity while in a strange land. If said traveler walks into the local Marriott and it looks like every other Marriott they have ever been in they feel 'safe,' like they are no longer a stranger in a strange land. An even better example of this idea would be Embassy Suites. . . "

This is getting closer, but everybody's still taking this way too personally. I give Chip & Andy A+++++ for being the very first to mention Embassy Suites.

Limbo Lizard is still suggesting that the MBA crowd does not know what they are doing.
Maybe, in fact, they do.
After all, as The Dude notes, the Hanalei Islands Restaurant is more crowded now, (even during Tiki Oasis!) than it was when it was a Classic Tiki Theme...
