portfolio,
which includes Courtyard by Marriott, Four Points by Sheraton and

Prism currently manages 52 properties in 18 states nationwide, including all major brands and independents.

As an additional service to clients, Prism has created an interim hotel brand called InnPlace, which serves the flag needs of a hotel at greatly reduced costs, including no Property Improvement Plan (PIP) requirements or termination fees.
