I'm Ryan Grafton, President of OTSO International Ltd. — a boutique hotel acquisition and operating platform focused on underperforming properties globally. We buy them, renovate them, rebrand them, and operate them. Checked In is where I write about what that actually looks like — the deals, the markets, the missteps, and the wins. Candid, weekly, free.
