Free Breakfast – The Most Overrated Hotel Loyalty Benefit by Travel Codex. One of the biggest reasons I try to ignore hotel status and status in general is that I know it’s going to lead to me making irrational choices. The biggest issue I have with most non chain hotel is that a lot of them don’t have desk/chair in room, but typically I can just work elsewhere anyway. One thing I’d love is for hotels to offer an additional free standing monitor in room, I hate trying to work with just my single laptop monitor and honestly if a brand offered this I’d probably be brand loyal.
