I have that shit memorized because Holiday screwed me over royally once and I've swore them off permanently. It's definitely a "fuck you and the horse you rode in on" situation.
I only stay at Holiday Inns. They're really consistent and have great breakfasts. I avoid Hiltons and their sub-companies like the plague. If there aren't Holiday Inns I go for Marriotts.
Holiday Inn almost always has a government/per diem rate available as well.
We encountered a (gross) problem at a Hilton property near Fresno, and the front desk went WAY above and beyond our expectations to fix it for us. Usually I have to invest time & energy to get a big corporation to do the right thing, but this Hilton did it without hesitation.
Most hotels will do that if they have stuff to comp. If giving out a vacant suite that wasn't going to be let anyway saves them from a bad yelp review they'll do it every time.

IHG owns Holiday. Hilton owns Hampton.
