I have a client who owned a Holiday Inn franchise. A few years back, he was notified that they were terminating a third of their franchises, and established a list of upgrades that were being required in order to stay in the system. My client made the grade, and installed the updates. Despite that, he has since switched to one of the Marriott brands.
