			businesses that have earned great traveler reviews on TripAdvisor 
			over the past year. Certificate of Excellence recipients include 
			accommodations, eateries and attractions located all over the world

 “We are very excited to have been honored once again with a 
			Certificate of Excellence at both Lincoln hotels, said Damon Priddy,

			consecutive award and since taking over operations of the Holiday 
			Inn Express in 2014, this is our third consecutive. We owe this 
			great honor to our team at both properties, who work tirelessly to 
			ensure our guests have a fantastic stay each and every time!”

"With the Certificate of Excellence, TripAdvisor honors hospitality businesses 
that have consistently received strong praise and ratings from travelers,” said 
Heather Leisman, Vice President of Industry Marketing, TripAdvisor. “This 
recognition helps travelers identify and book properties that regularly deliver 
great service. TripAdvisor is proud to play this integral role in helping 
travelers feel more confident in their booking decisions.”
 The Certificate of Excellence accounts for the quality, quantity and recency of 
reviews submitted by travelers on TripAdvisor over a 12-month period. To 
qualify, a business must maintain an overall TripAdvisor bubble rating of at 
least four out of five, have a minimum number of reviews and must have been 
listed on TripAdvisor for at least 12 months.
