Not a professional painter (not even an enthusiastic one), never stayed in
a Holiday Inn Express, but...
Plenty of light, with the ability to move lights to see the reflection of
wet paint, and enough to see the color difference between what's dry and
what you're doing now.
I use clamp lights - the ones with the big aluminum reflector - and 100W
equivalent daylight LED bulbs. Even on a small bedroom I like at least 3
lights to get light everywhere I want it.
