THE OPPORTUNITY
On behalf of the owner, Lodging Partners is conducting a highly confidential and private sale of Residence Inn by Marriott Columbia Northwest/Harbison. The Hotel is situated in the northwest quadrant of the I-26/Lake Murray Boulevard interchange, which is in the Harbison area of Columbia, close proximity to many shopping, dining, and entertainment options in the area.
This acquisition offers an investor a great opportunity to purchase a high quality asset with strong trailing cash flow and the Marriott brand affiliation at a significant discount to replacement cost. The Residence Inn is in great physical condition after recently completing over $1,400,000 in PIP-related capital expenditures in April 2023. The Hotel is offered free and clear of debt and unencumbered by management, so a new owner will be well positioned to capitalize on this market’s continued strong economic growth and broad corporate and leisure demand. Now that the renovations are completed, the Hotel is budgeted to run 75% at $130 in 2024.
The hotel itself is a four-story building with 100 guest rooms with spacious studio, one- and two-bedroom suites with separate living and sleeping areas, and each with a fully equipped kitchen. The rooms are designed to provide a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere, with modern furnishings and amenities.
The hotel features a variety of on-site facilities and services, including a fitness center, outdoor pool, hot tub, and a complimentary breakfast buffet.
