This is our moment in the sun. Finally, people are recognizing that, and the fact that people are adding brands to our segment tells us that there’s demand and validates the model that we already know is successful.
On one hand, you don’t love new competition. On the other hand, it just validates the segment.
ESA was the pioneer in the extended-stay hotel space. It started nearly 30 years ago, and it’s had a lead since the first day and still is in pole position for the segment.
