How will the sale of Hilton Hospitality to a private equity firm affect its future?

As a loyal Hilton patron, I'm concerned that corners will be cut in providing the excellent service Hilton is known for, in an attempt to squeeze more profit out of the company for the private equity firm.

Will Hilton become another brand that USED to mean quality but doesn't anymore (like Schwinn and Hewlett-Packard)?

I don't think so. Seems like if they decide to make any changes it will be for the better, at least that would be a better business plan.
