I have downloaded Choice Hotels and Hilton US. After converting csv to gpx with www.gps-data-team.com/convert.php, the address fields are blank. Only shows name and gps coordinates. Any thoughts?

As many members here, I too use EXTRA POI EDITOR by TurboCCC and have never had a problem making conversions.

.csv files are more of less arbitrary after the first three fields. The only requirements are longitude, latitude and a name (which is very arbitrary). Any column after this could contain anything...name, description, address, phone, zip, etc. (or any combination therein) This is probably why the rest of your converted fields are blank. The program had no idea how to decipher the information contained after the third column.
