Courtyard global brand manager and vice president Janis Milham said that Courtyard has always prided itself on being a brand that listens to what travellers want from a hotel.
"Guests want more control and choice with services and amenities that create a healthy balance between working and relaxing," Milham added.
The hotel is owned by RLJ Lodging Trust and is operated by Highgate Hotels, under a franchise licensing agreement with a subsidiary of Marriott International.
Courtyard is Marriott’s largest brand, with around 860 locations in 30 countries.
