During the week they sure do. Maintaining a decent overnight occupancy, combined with dynamite weekend business is what makes a hotel a successful business.

It might have been just with the two Troy-located companies that I worked for, but entertaining corporate visitors and putting employees into free dining/drinking situations and yet still making them responsible for executive transportation back to their hotel [[in Troy) is an irresponsible business practice.
