Accepted into the Stash Hotel Rewards program because of its top TripAdvisor rating in Carlsbad, leisure and business travelers can now earn and redeem points in a rapidly increasing network of independent hotels across the country.
Designed to compete with chain hotel loyalty programs, Stash partner hotels have an average TripAdvisor Traveler Rating of 86%, higher than hotels participating in major chain programs. In addition to this extraordinarily high average recommend rating, 25% of Stash partner hotels rank #1 on TripAdvisor in their markets. West Inn & Suites, which recently earned a spot on TripAdvisor’s Top 25 Small Hotels and Motels for Families in the United States, also has the TripAdvisor distinction of #1 in all of Carlsbad since opening in 2006.
“We’ve had an extremely loyal leisure and business traveler following since opening in 2006 and have been searching for an awards program that fits the unique style of West Inn & Suites,” said Kim Akers, Vice President, West Hospitality. “We now have a way to reward our guests for choosing to stay with us over the many other choices available in Carlsbad.”
