Economy extended-stay hotels were the first and only segment of the lodging industry to post a monthly gain in RevPar since February 2020. Gains in both occupancy and average rate resulted in 3.6% RevPar growth in January 2021 compared to January 2020. Another sign of the bottom up recovery was mid-price extended-stay hotel demand increased for the second consecutive month.
