Holiday Inn Express/Holiday Inn Express & Suites franchise in Rhode Island: what the public record shows

Franchisees of Holiday Inn Express/Holiday Inn Express & Suites in Rhode Island have taken 5 SBA loans since 1991 (average $2,216,000)— too few resolved loans in-state to publish a local failure rate (we require a resolved cohort, never extrapolate), so the brand's national rate of 11.7% is the better guide.
