is a proven leader in the economy/budget hotel market. Years of hotel
management experience and innovative planning went into the development

modeled with the same basic business points of Wal-Mart and Southwest
Airlines. Simply put, the concept involves offering the traveling public
a high quality product at a value rate while keeping operating and development
costs to a minimum. All Microtel Inns & Suites are 100% new construction
(no conversions) assuring a consistent expectation and experience. It's
this consistency that has earned us the recognition as one of the great
consumer satisfaction brands in the lodging industry.
