Interaction with Mr. Roger Bloss
Q1.)What is inique about Value Inn? How would it be different to guests to be irresistible as against other brands of same tier?
We bring the resources, distribution system, education, channels and tools to the hotel owners to help them operate successfully. We bring inspiration by individuality. Once I am at a destination, I would love to eat local food at a local restaurants, would love to learn its art, culture and uncover the destination. Trust factor is another key player here. So, guests would know if something goes wrong, they are in good hands. They would get some basic facilities that are a must haves in any Value Inn or Value Hotel on Earth. Plus there are other facilities like frequent traveler points etc.
