Residence Inn vs Marriott
Last week I blogged about Marriott’s premium TP display where they use TP stickers:

Katie suggested that this is wasteful, while Gabe explained that someone is supporting their family making these stickers (not to mention that someone is likely getting paid hourly to stick those stickers on the rolls). Jeremy’s only concern is that they may be scratch-n-sniff, which I suppose is a legitimate concern.
So this week, I’ve found myself in a Residence Inn by Marriott over in Traverse City, Michigan, which is nice, but not quite regular Marriott nice. Check out the difference:

It still has that hotel feel, but there is a definite difference that helps justify the added expense of the regular Marriott locations.

You know, just because…sniff sniff…we worry about you man!

[...] Folding TP is one thing. Even folding paper towels is acceptable, I suppose. But notepads? How are you supposed to write on a notepad like this? [...]

The reason why they fold it into a point is because its really helpful to get into hard to reach areas – friggin tightwads!
