QUALITY INN franchise in West Virginia: what the public record shows
Franchisees of QUALITY INN in West Virginia have taken 6 SBA loans since 1991 (average $2,212,583)— 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 9.0% is the better guide. Its latest FDD Item 20 state table reports 21 franchised outlets in West Virginia (fiscal 2025) — about 1.19 per 100k residents.
