<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/HRP_RESIDENCE_INN_BY_MARRIOTT_RESIDENT_MOM.jpg" class="top"> We dont usually give a ton of thought to hotels doling out ambiguous awards. But when the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/residence inn">Residence Inns</a> PR folk told us theyd be honoring Holly Robinson Peete with their first annual Resident Mom award, we were intrigued. Sometimes a "feel good" story ain't all that bad, and who doesnt love Ms. 21 Jump Street? The gorgeous gal in Hanging with Mr. Cooper? And now co-host on CBS The Talk? Sure, we'd show up for their 2:15pm press conference (weird time be damned) just to satiate a 20-year girl crush.Peete was honored by the Residence Inn for her commitment to her familyshes got four children with husband and former NFL quarterback Rodney Peete--and her

Residence Inn will give the first 50 moms who check in a single rose. Not 50 roses to each mom. (Darnit. That's sorta what we were planning on doing next weekend!) Sorry for the misunderstanding. You won't have to scramble to a florist on Mother's Day, wait in a long line and pay a ridiculous amount for a subpar bouquet if you go to a <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/Marriott%20Hotels">Marriott</a> <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/Residence%20Inn">Residence Inn</a>. The hotel will already have taken care of it! That's because Marriott is giving 50 red roses to all moms who stay at a Residence Inn on May 9. Fifty red roses will surely impress your hard-to-please mom, and you won't

We know it's hard to stay in shape on the road especially with the availability of massive breakfast spreads in all the budget-ish hotels. You can stuff yourself full of things that come in wrappers inside airports and at gas stations but it can be hard to resist hot food when placed in front of you on a plate or in a <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/1/8/153431/3390/hotels/Which_Budget_Hotel_Chain_Has_the_Best_Free_Breakfast_">buffet spread</a>. Even worse: you totally usually can't cook for yourself when you're traveling, and what you can prepare on an extended-stay kitchenette is, well, not a vast and varied menu.
