In this episode, Adam and Micah pull back the curtain on the messy, motivating reality of renovating The Wesley Hotel — from a gut-punch one-star review to a new GC delivering three times the workload of the last team. They also dig into exciting new revenue experiments including a public pool, a local coffee truck partnership, and a smash burger food truck — plus what a triple net lease actually looks like in practice.

In this episode, Adam and Micah reflect on the hospitality lessons brought back from a two-week Italian honeymoon — and how Italian hoteliers set a standard that challenges everything they're building at the Wesley. They also pull back the curtain on a tough stretch of construction delays, the personnel moves they made to break the logjam, and why visible progress on site finally has them feeling like the finish line is in reach.
