Business Outlook
Pros
The training was great in Front Desk area. Overall, staff is very friendly and fun to be around. Yes, it's WV, but this location is pretty busy due to business travelers and university events.
Cons
Its a Holiday Inn Express, and has to abide by strict standards to keep the name. But, the location is owned by a regional LLC that owns about 10-12 other hotels (different brands too). Some of their hotels are in small, depressed, and poor towns. So, cost of living is much lower. However, Morgantown, WV did did not get hit by the housing bubble and unemployment has stayed low. Bottom line, the owners are choosing to be cheap. It's really stupid of them, because a lot of great employees have resigned for that reason alone.
