Key risks (from latest filing)
["Lodging industry cyclicality and sensitivity to macroeconomic conditions, including recession, unemployment, and consumer travel reduction during economic downturns","Concentration in luxury and upper-upscale segments, which experience disproportionately larger revenue declines during periods of economic difficulty as high-end travelers reduce trips","Exposure to changes in travel patterns, business demand, and leisure travel preferences, as well as potential shifts in traveler behavior due to economic uncertainty, inflation, and elevated interest rates"]
