Motels have traditionally served as budget-friendly accommodations for travellers, offering a convenient place to rest during their journeys. However, changes in consumer preferences and the advent of the sharing economy have led to a shift in the industry. Modern travellers now seek unique, comfortable, and Instagram-worthy experiences, challenging motel owners to adapt or face obsolescence.
Victoria Cluney, a seasoned real estate investor specializing particularly in multi-family properties, motels, and glamping retreats, recognized these changing trends and saw the untapped potential in motels. Armed with a keen eye for opportunity and a passion for renovation, she embarked on a journey to transform run-down motels into thriving, boutique-style destinations.
I decided I wanted to do feel good investing…and two months later, the motel fell into my lap. – Victoria Cluney
