Recently stayed at several Holiday Inn Expresses in several states and they
all rooms had the Curig capsule coffee makers along with several capsules of
different blends - not bad coffee and very convenient - more capsules easily
obtainable gratis at the front desk.
It appears that Holiday Inn has upped their game - all the H I's we stayed
in were new or recently renovated and had upscale furniture and were
spotless. When I traveled for work, H I's were very hit or mis - they were
either good to very good or poor and shoddy.

Those capsule machines seem to be real popular in offices where people
have different tastes in coffee. Either the break room supplies a variety
or people bring their own. It does cut down on the time it takes to doctor
up a cup to taste and eliminates the problem of that one asshole who
always takes the last cup and won't make a new pot.
At home I'm still using my 4-cup Mr. Coffee. It must be going on 40 years
old, because I got it for Christmas when I was still married. I have a
spare carafe in case I ever break the current one.

It requires special capsules, and they are not cheap, but they are
extremely convenient, and inexpensive compared to buying coffee from
StarBuck or even Duncan Donuts.
