Business, Organization and Basis of Consolidation	BUSINESS, ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION Extended Stay America, Inc. (the “Corporation”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on July 8, 2013. ESH Hospitality, Inc. (“ESH REIT”) was formed as a limited liability company in the state of Delaware on September 16, 2010 and was converted to a corporation on November 5, 2013. On November 18, 2013, the Corporation and ESH REIT completed an initial public offering of 32.5 million Paired Shares. A "Paired Share" consists of one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Corporation, that is attached to and trades as a single unit with one share of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of ESH REIT. The Corporation owns, and is expected to continue to own, all of the issued and outstanding Class A common stock of ESH REIT, which, as of June 30, 2017, represents approximately 57% of the outstanding common stock of ESH REIT. Due to its controlling interest in ESH REIT, the Corporation consolidates the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows of ESH REIT. The term, “the Company,” as used herein refers to the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, including ESH REIT. As of June 30, 2017 , the Company owned and operated 625 hotel properties in 44 U.S. states, consisting of approximately 68,780 rooms. As of December 31, 2016 , the Company owned and operated 626 hotel properties in 44 U.S. states, consisting of approximately 68,900 rooms, and three hotels in Canada, consisting of 500 rooms. The hotel properties are owned by wholly-owned subsidiaries of ESH REIT and are operated by wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Corporation (the “Operating Lessees”) pursuant to leases between ESH REIT and the Operating Lessees. The hotels are managed by ESA Management LLC (“ESA Management”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The hotels are operated under the core brand, Extended Stay America. The Extended Stay America brand is owned by ESH Hospitality Strategies LLC (“ESH Strategies”), also a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. As of June 30, 2017 , the Corporation had approximately 192.5 million shares of common stock outstanding, approximately 98.4% of which were owned by the public, approximately 0.9% , or 1.8 million shares, of which were owned by Paulson & Co. Inc. (a Former Sponsor, as defined below) and approximately 0.7% of which were owned by senior management and certain directors. As of June 30, 2017 , ESH REIT’s common equity consisted of the following: (i) approximately 250.5 million shares of Class A common stock outstanding (approximately 57% of its common equity), all of which were owned by the Corporation, and (ii) approximately 192.5 million shares of Class B common stock outstanding (approximately 43% of its common equity), approximately 98.4% of which were owned by the public, approximately 0.9% , or 1.8 million shares, of which were owned by Paulson & Co. Inc. (a Former Sponsor, as defined below) and approximately 0.7% of which were owned by senior management and directors. As of December 31, 2016 , the Corporation had approximately 195.4 million shares of common stock outstanding, approximately 55.9% of which were owned by the public and approximately 44.1% of which were owned by Centerbridge Partners, L.P., Paulson & Co. Inc. and The Blackstone Group L.P. and their funds or affiliates (individually, each a "Former Sponsor," or collectively, the “Former Sponsors”) and senior management and certain directors. As of December 31, 2016, ESH REIT’s common equity consisted of the following: (i) approximately 250.5 million shares of Class A common stock outstanding (approximately 56% of its common equity), all of which were owned by the Corporation, and (ii) approximately 195.4 million shares of Class B common stock outstanding (approximately 44% of its common equity), approximately 55.9% of which were owned by the public and approximately 44.1% of which were owned by the Former Sponsors and senior management and directors. 2017 Secondary Offerings In March, May and June 2017, certain selling stockholders (the "Selling Stockholders") sold 25.0 million , 30.0 million and 25.0 million Paired Shares, respectively, pursuant to an automatic shelf registration statement as part of secondary offerings. In conjunction with these secondary offerings, the Corporation and ESH REIT repurchased and retired, in the aggregate, approximately 2.0 million Paired Shares for approximately $21.4 million and $12.2 million , respectively (see Note 11). The Selling Stockholders consisted solely of entities affiliated with the Former Sponsors and did not include officers or directors of the Corporation or ESH REIT. Neither the Corporation nor ESH REIT sold Paired Shares in the secondary offerings and neither received proceeds from the secondary offerings. The Corporation and ESH REIT incurred professional fees in connection with the secondary offerings totaling approximately $0.6 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively. After giving effect to the June 2017 secondary offering, funds or affiliates of Centerbridge Partners, L.P. and The Blackstone Group L.P. no longer own any Paired Shares. Paired Share Repurchase Program In December 2015, the Boards of Directors of the Corporation and ESH REIT authorized a combined Paired Share repurchase program for up to $100 million of Paired Shares. In February 2016, the Boards of Directors of the Corporation and ESH REIT authorized an increase of the combined Paired Share repurchase program from up to $100 million to up to $200 million of Paired Shares. In December 2016, the Boards of Directors of the Corporation and ESH REIT authorized an increase of the combined Paired Share repurchase program from up to $200 million to up to $300 million of Paired Shares and extended the maturity of the program through December 31, 2017, each effective January 1, 2017. Repurchases may be made at management's discretion from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means (including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans). Depending on market conditions and other factors, these repurchases may be commenced or suspended without prior notice. As of June 30, 2017 , the Corporation and ESH REIT had repurchased and retired approximately 12.6 million Paired Shares for approximately $120.4 million and $73.4 million , respectively, of which 5.8 million Paired Shares were repurchased and retired from entities affiliated with the Former Sponsors. Basis of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”), and include the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, including ESH REIT. Third party equity interests in the Corporation's consolidated subsidiaries are presented as noncontrolling interests. Despite the fact that each share of Corporation common stock is paired on a one-for-one basis with each share of ESH REIT Class B common stock, the Corporation does not own the ESH REIT Class B common stock; therefore, ESH REIT Class B common stock represents a third party equity interest. As such, the rights associated with the ESH REIT Class B common stock, along with other third party equity interests in ESH REIT, which include 125 shares of preferred stock, are presented as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Changes in ownership interests in a consolidated subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Interim Presentation— Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the combined annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2017. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2017 , the results of the Company’s operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and changes in equity and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations, including the impact of hotel renovations. Use of Estimates —The preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management used significant estimates to determine the estimated useful lives of tangible assets as well as in the assessment of tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill, for impairment, estimated liabilities for insurance reserves and the grant-date fair value of certain equity-based awards. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Property and Equipment —Property and equipment additions are recorded at cost. Major improvements that extend the life or utility of property or equipment are capitalized and depreciated over a period equal to the shorter of the estimated useful life of the improvement or the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from two to 49 years . Management assesses the performance of long-lived assets for potential impairment quarterly, as well as when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of property and equipment is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of a hotel property to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by each hotel property. Impairment is recognized when estimated future undiscounted cash flows, including proceeds from disposition, are less than the carrying value of each hotel property. To the extent that a hotel property is impaired, the excess carrying amount over its estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment charge and reduces income from operations. Fair value is determined based upon the discounted cash flows of the hotel property, quoted market prices or independent appraisals, as considered necessary. The Company recognized impairment charges related to property and equipment of approximately $7.9 million and $20.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively, and recognized no impairment charges for the three or six months ended June 30, 2016 (see Note 5). The estimation of future undiscounted cash flows is inherently uncertain and relies upon assumptions regarding current and future economic and market conditions. If such conditions change, an impairment charge to further reduce the carrying value of a hotel property could occur in a future period in which conditions change. Segments —The Company’s hotel operations represent a single operating segment based on the way the Company manages its business. The Company’s hotels provide similar services, use similar processes to sell those services and sell those services to similar classes of customers. The amounts of long-lived assets and net revenues outside the U.S. are not significant for any period presented. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Goodwill— In January 2017, the FASB issued an accounting standards update in which the guidance on testing for goodwill was updated to eliminate Step 2 in the determination on whether goodwill should be considered impaired. Annual and/or interim assessments are still required to be completed. This update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Statement of Cash Flows— In August and November 2016, the FASB issued accounting standards updates which provide additional clarity on the classification of specific events on the statement of cash flows. These events include debt prepayment and extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from settlement of insurance claims, distributions received from equity method investees, and beneficial interests in securitization transactions. These updates also require amounts generally described as restricted cash to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. These updates are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of these updates will require cash outflows related to debt prepayment and extinguishment costs to be classified as financing activities. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, debt prepayment and extinguishment costs included within net cash provided by operating activities totaled approximately $1.2 million and $3.7 million , respectively. Additionally, the effect of the adoption of these updates on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows will be to include restricted cash in the beginning and end of period balances of cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents. The change in restricted cash is currently included in investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Compensation—Stock Compensation— In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, and certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this update did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award requires an entity to apply modification accounting. This update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Derivatives and Hedging— In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to clarify the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts and to clarify that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this update did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Leases— In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which introduces a lessee model that requires a right-of-use asset and lease obligation to be presented on the balance sheet for all leases, whether operating or financing. The update eliminates the requirement in current U.S. GAAP for an entity to use bright-line tests in determining lease classification. The update also requires lessors to increase the transparency of their exposure to changes in value of their residual assets and how they manage that exposure. This update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied using a modified retrospective approach, which will require adjustment to all comparative periods presented. As of June 30, 2017 , using its incremental borrowing rate with respect to the future minimum lease payments under its operating leases (ground leases and corporate office lease), the Company has preliminarily determined that the lease liability would have been between approximately $16.0 million and $20.0 million and the right of use asset would have been between approximately $8.0 million and $12.0 million , which includes adjustments for accrued lease payments, above market lease liabilities and lease incentives. The recording of a lease obligation may increase total indebtedness for purposes of financial covenants within certain of the Company’s existing debt agreements; however, the Company currently does not expect this increase to cause instances of non-compliance with any of these covenants. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on its consolidated statements of operations or cash flows. The Company expects to elect the optional practical expedients which relate to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, initial direct costs for leases that commenced before the effective date, and the ability to use hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or to purchase the underlying asset. The election to apply these practical expedients will, in effect, mean the Company will continue to account for leases that commenced before the effective date in accordance with previous GAAP unless the lease is modified, except that the Company will recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all operating leases at each reporting date based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments that were tracked and disclosed under previous GAAP. Contractual Revenue— Since May 2014, the FASB has issued several accounting standards updates which replace existing revenue recognition accounting standards. These updates are based on the principle that revenue is recognized when an entity transfers control of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. These updates also require more detailed disclosure to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. These updates permit transition under the full retrospective method, the modified retrospective approach that utilizes certain practical expedients and the cumulative effect method. These updates are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the amount and/or timing of revenue recognition. The assessment process includes the following; (i) review of contracts in order to determine if a portfolio approach may be acceptable for concluding on performance obligations and delivery of such obligations under the contracts; (ii) analysis on the appropriateness of bundling delivered goods and services under the contracts; (iii) the determination as to whether the Company acts as either a principal or an agent under certain distribution agreements, which may impact the timing and amount of revenue recognized; and (iv) other related matters, including the enhancement of revenue related disclosures. The Company will adopt the standard on January 1, 2018. The Company expects to complete its assessment of the impact of adoption during 2017, and expects to finalize the details of its adoption plan prior to the implementation date. The adoption plan will include an election of which transition approach the Company will take and which practical expedients provided by the standard the Company will elect. Although the Company is still evaluating the total impact of the standard, and it currently does not expect that the adoption of the standard will have a material impact on the amount and/or timing of revenue recognized, except as outlined above as it relates to acting as a principal or agent under certain distribution agreements, it does expect significantly enhanced revenue-related disclosures to be included in the notes to its consolidated financial statements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Interim Presentation —Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. ESH REIT believes the disclosures made are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the combined annual report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 28, 2017. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary to present fairly ESH REIT’s financial position as of June 30, 2017 , the results of ESH REIT’s operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and changes in equity and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance because of the impact of accounting for contingent rental payments under lease arrangements. Use of Estimates —The preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management used significant estimates to determine the estimated useful lives of tangible assets as well as in the assessment of tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill, for impairment, estimated liabilities for insurance reserves and the grant-date fair value of certain equity-based awards. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Property and Equipment —Property and equipment additions are recorded at cost. Major improvements that extend the life or utility of property or equipment are capitalized and depreciated over a period equal to the shorter of the estimated useful life of the improvement or the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from two to 49 years . Management assesses the performance of long-lived assets for potential impairment quarterly, as well as when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of a group of assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of property and equipment is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of a group of hotel properties (groups of hotel properties align with hotels as they are grouped under ESH REIT’s leases) to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by each group of hotel properties. Impairment is recognized when estimated future undiscounted cash flows, including proceeds from disposition, are less than the carrying value of each group of hotel properties. To the extent that a group of hotel properties is impaired, their excess carrying amount over their estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment charge and reduces income from operations. Fair value is determined based upon the discounted cash flows of a group of hotel properties, quoted market prices or independent appraisals, as considered necessary. No impairment charges were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2017. ESH REIT recognized impairment charges related to property and equipment of approximately $15.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and no impairment charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 (see Note 5). The estimation of future undiscounted cash flows is inherently uncertain and relies upon assumptions regarding current and future economic and market conditions. If such conditions change, an impairment charge to further reduce the carrying value of a group of hotel properties could occur in a future period in which conditions change. Revenue Recognition —ESH REIT’s sole source of revenues is rental revenue derived from leases with subsidiaries of the Corporation (the Operating Lessees). ESH REIT records rental revenues on a straight-line basis as they are earned during the lease terms. Rents receivable from Extended Stay America, Inc. on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets represent monthly rental amounts contractually due. Deferred rents receivable from Extended Stay America, Inc. on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets represent the cumulative difference between straight-line rental revenues recognized and rental revenues contractually due. As scheduled rent payments begin to exceed straight-line rental revenue, this amount, approximately $32.0 million as of June 30, 2017 , will gradually decrease through the remainder of the lease terms until it is zero at the end of the lease terms in October 2018. Lease rental payments received prior to rendering services are included in unearned rental revenues from Extended Stay America, Inc. on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contingent rental revenues, specifically percentage rental revenues related to hotel revenues of the Operating Lessees, are recognized when such amounts are fixed and determinable (i.e., only when percentage rental revenue thresholds have been achieved). Segments —ESH REIT’s business represents a single operating segment based on the way ESH REIT manages its business. ESH REIT leases the hotel properties in similar manners to similar customers. The amounts of long-lived assets and net revenues outside the U.S. are not significant for any period presented. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Goodwill— In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standards update in which the guidance on testing for goodwill was updated to eliminate Step 2 in the determination on whether goodwill should be considered impaired.

The carrying value of the hotels, including net working capital and allocable goodwill, net of an impairment charge recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2017, was approximately 56.7 million Canadian dollars, or approximately $41.2 million , resulting in a gain on sale of approximately 17.3 million Canadian dollars, or approximately $12.6 million , prior to the evaluation of existing accumulated foreign currency translation loss. Due to the fact that the Company's Canadian subsidiaries liquidated 100% of their assets, approximately $14.5 million of accumulated foreign currency translation loss was recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. This charge more than fully offset the Canadian subsidiaries' gain on sale, which resulted in a loss on sale of the Canadian hotels of approximately $1.9 million , net of closing costs and adjustments, which is reported in loss on sale of hotel properties during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. On May 16, 2017, the Company sold one U.S.-based hotel for gross proceeds of $5.4 million . The carrying value of this hotel, including net working capital and allocable goodwill, net of an impairment charge recorded during 2016, was approximately $5.1 million , resulting in no gain or loss on sale, net of closing costs and adjustments.

ESH REIT's carrying value of the hotels, including working capital and allocable goodwill, net of an impairment charge recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2017, was approximately 51.2 million Canadian dollars, or approximately $37.3 million , resulting in a gain on sale of approximately 15.1 million Canadian dollars, or approximately $11.0 million , prior to the evaluation of existing accumulated foreign currency translation loss. Due to the fact that ESH REIT's Canadian subsidiary liquidated 100% of its assets, approximately $12.5 million of accumulated foreign currency translation loss was recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 .

The 2025 Notes are effectively junior to any of ESH REIT’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.

If an event of default occurs, the administrative agent is entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the 2016 ESH REIT Credit Facilities and additional actions that a secured creditor is permitted to take following a default. As of June 30, 2017 , ESH REIT was in compliance with all covenants under the 2016 ESH REIT Credit Facilities. 2016 Term Facility — The 2016 Term Facility, as amended, bears interest at a rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus 2.50% or (ii) base rate (determined by reference to the highest of (A) the prime lending rate, (B) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (C) the one-month adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.00% ) plus 1.50% . The 2016 Term Facility amortizes in equal quarterly installments in annual amounts of 1.0% of the principal amount outstanding as of the Repricing Amendment, or approximately $13.0 million , with the remaining balance payable at maturity. In addition to scheduled amortization, subject to certain exceptions, mandatory prepayments of up to 50% of annual Excess Cash Flow, as defined, may be required based on ESH REIT's Consolidated Leverage Ratio, each as defined. Annual mandatory prepayments are due during the first quarter of the following year. The 2016 Term Facility matures on August 30, 2023. ESH REIT has the option to voluntarily prepay outstanding loans under the 2016 Term Facility at any time upon three business days’ prior written notice for LIBOR loans or on one business day’s prior written notice for base rate loans. In addition to customary "breakage" costs with respect to LIBOR loans, amounts refinanced, substituted or replaced by indebtedness which has a lower all-in yield than the all-in yield under the 2016 Term Facility on or prior to September 1, 2017 (other than as a result of a transformative transaction) are subject to a prepayment penalty equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount refinanced, substituted or replaced. Prepayments made after September 1, 2017 are not subject to a prepayment penalty. 2016 ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility — The 2016 ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility provides for the issuance of up to $50.0 million of letters of credit. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at a rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus a spread that ranges from 2.25% to 2.75% based on ESH REIT’s Total Net Leverage Ratio, as defined, or (ii) base rate (determined by reference to the highest of (A) the prime lending rate, (B) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50% , or (C) the one-month adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.00% ) plus a spread that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% based on ESH REIT’s Total Net Leverage Ratio, as defined. There is no scheduled amortization under the 2016 ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility and the facility matures on August 30, 2021. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal, ESH REIT incurs a fee of 0.35% or 0.175% on the unutilized revolver balance, based on the amount outstanding under the facility. ESH REIT is also required to pay customary letter of credit fees and agency fees. As of June 30, 2017 , ESH REIT had no letters of credit outstanding under the facility, an outstanding balance of $0 and available borrowing capacity of $350.0 million . The 2016 ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a springing financial covenant whereby the senior loan-to-value ratio may not exceed 45% when the aggregate principal amount of borrowings and letters of credit under the 2016 ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility, excluding up to $30.0 million of letters of credit, is equal to or greater than 25% of the aggregate available principal amount of the 2016 ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility on the applicable fiscal quarter end date. ESH REIT Senior Notes Due 2025 In May 2015, ESH REIT issued $500.0 million 5.25% senior notes due in 2025 (together with the $800.0 million of additional notes discussed below, the “2025 Notes”) under an indenture (the “Indenture”) with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee, at 100% of par value in a private placement pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act ("Rule 144A"). In March 2016, ESH REIT issued an additional $800.0 million of the 2025 Notes under the Indenture at 98.5% of par value in a private placement pursuant to Rule 144A. The 2025 Notes mature on May 1, 2025 and bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year. The 2025 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis by each of ESH REIT’s subsidiaries that guarantee ESH REIT’s obligations under the 2016 ESH REIT Credit Facilities. The 2025 Notes rank equally in right of payment with ESH REIT’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, and senior in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness, if any. The 2025 Notes are effectively junior to any of ESH REIT’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. ESH REIT may redeem the 2025 Notes at any time on or after May 1, 2020, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 102.625% of the principal amount, declining annually to 100% of the principal amount from May 1, 2023 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Upon a Change of Control, as defined, holders of the 2025 Notes have the right to require ESH REIT to redeem the 2025 Notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Indenture contains a number of customary covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit ESH REIT’s ability and the ability of its subsidiaries to incur additional debt, create certain liens, pay dividends or distributions, make certain investments and other restricted payments, enter into affiliate transactions, sell assets or merge, consolidate or transfer all or substantially all of their assets. The Indenture also contains certain customary events of default, including, but not limited to, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness. If an event of default occurs, the holders of the Notes and the Trustee are entitled to take various actions, including declaring the 2025 Notes immediately due and payable. As of June 30, 2017 , ESH REIT was in compliance with all covenants set forth in the Indenture. Unsecured Intercompany Facility On August 30, 2016, ESH REIT, as borrower, and the Corporation, as lender, entered into an unsecured intercompany credit facility (the "Unsecured Intercompany Facility"). As of June 30, 2017 , the amount outstanding under the facility totaled $50.0 million . Subject to certain conditions, the principal amount of the Unsecured Intercompany Facility may be increased up to an amount that shall not exceed the greater of (i) $300.0 million and (ii) an unlimited amount so long as the incremental loan-to-value ratio, determined on a pro-forma basis as of the last day of the most recently ended test period, as if any incremental loans available under such incremental commitments had been outstanding on the last day of such period, and, in each case, without netting the cash proceeds of any such incremental loans, does not exceed 5.0% . Loans under the facility bear interest at 5.00% per annum. There is no scheduled amortization under the facility and the facility matures on August 30, 2023. ESH REIT has the option to voluntarily prepay outstanding loans at any time upon one business day’s prior written notice. The Unsecured Intercompany Facility contains a number of restrictive covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit ESH REIT’s ability and the ability of its subsidiaries to incur additional debt, modify existing debt, create certain liens, pay dividends or distributions, make certain investments and other restricted payments, enter into affiliate transactions, amend or modify certain material operating leases and management agreements, sell assets or merge, consolidate or transfer all or substantially all of their assets. The facility contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, including, but not limited to, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness and certain material operating leases and management agreements. If an event of default occurs, the Corporation is entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the facility and all other actions that a creditor is permitted to take following a default.

Derivative Instruments	DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS The Company from time to time uses derivative instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate, foreign currency exchange rate and commodity price risks. The Company’s primary objective in holding derivatives is to reduce the volatility of cash flows and earnings associated with changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. The Company’s derivatives expose it to credit risk to the extent that counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreement. The Company seeks to mitigate such risks by limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions. In addition, the potential risk of loss with any one counterparty resulting from this type of credit risk is monitored. Management does not expect material losses as a result of defaults by counterparties. In September 2016, ESH REIT entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap at a fixed rate of 1.175% and a floating rate of one-month LIBOR, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75% , to manage its exposure to interest rate risk on a portion of its variable rate debt. In February 2017, ESH REIT executed an amendment to its swap agreement, the impact of which was to remove the LIBOR floor on floating rate cash flows. The notional amount of the interest rate swap as of June 30, 2017 was $450.0 million . On October 1, 2017, the notional amount decreases to $400.0 million , and the notional amount continues to decrease by an additional $50.0 million every six months until the swap's maturity in September 2021. From September 2016 through the February 2017 amendment to ESH REIT's swap agreement, the swap was designated as an effective cash flow hedge and changes in fair value were recognized through accumulated other comprehensive income. Concurrent with the February 2017 swap amendment and through April 2017, the swap's designation as a cash flow hedge was reversed and changes in fair value were recognized in earnings and are included in the line item other non-operating income (expense) on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. In April 2017, ESH REIT re-designated the swap as an effective cash flow hedge. Subsequent to April 2017, the effective portion of changes in fair value are recognized through accumulated other comprehensive income and the ineffective portion is recognized in other non-operating income (expense) on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Prior changes recognized through accumulated other comprehensive income are amortized over the remaining life of the swap through earnings and are included in the line item other non-operating income (expense) on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2017, approximately $1.1 million is expected to be recognized through earnings over the following twelve months.

On or after November 15, 2018, a holder of the 8.0% voting preferred stock has the right to require the Corporation to redeem in cash the 8.0% voting preferred stock at $1,000 per share plus any accumulated unpaid dividends. On November 15, 2020, the Corporation shall mandatorily redeem all of the 8.0% voting preferred stock at $1,000 per share plus any accumulated unpaid dividends. Due to the fact that the outstanding 8.0% voting preferred stock is mandatorily redeemable by the Corporation, it is classified as a liability on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Dividends on these preferred shares are classified as net interest expense on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Entity Information [Line Items]
Income Taxes	INCOME TAXES The Corporation’s taxable income includes the taxable income of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and distribution income related to its ownership of approximately 57% of ESH REIT. ESH REIT has elected to be taxed and expects to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). A REIT is a legal entity that holds real estate assets and is generally not subject to federal and state income taxes. In order to maintain qualification as a REIT, ESH REIT is required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income, excluding net capital gain, to its shareholders each year. In addition, ESH REIT must meet a number of complex organizational and operational requirements. If ESH REIT were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it would be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and generally would be precluded from qualifying as a REIT for the subsequent four taxable years following the year during which it lost its REIT qualification. Even in qualifying as a REIT, ESH REIT may be subject to state and local taxes in certain jurisdictions, and is subject to federal income and excise taxes on undistributed income. ESH REIT intends to distribute its taxable income to the extent necessary to optimize its tax efficiency including, but not limited to, maintaining its REIT status, while retaining sufficient capital for its ongoing needs. Accordingly, ESH REIT expects to distribute approximately 100% of its taxable income for the foreseeable future. The Company recorded a provision for federal, state and foreign income taxes of approximately $15.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 , an effective rate of approximately 24.3% , as compared with a provision of approximately $7.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 , an effective rate of approximately 10.8% . The Company recorded a provision for federal, state and foreign income taxes of approximately $20.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , an effective rate of approximately 23.7% , as compared with a provision of approximately $10.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 , an effective rate of approximately 12.0% . The Company’s effective rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to ESH REIT’s status as a REIT under the provisions of the Code. During the three months ended June 30, 2016 , the Company recognized a benefit of approximately $7.7 million for the reversal of a net deferred tax liability to reflect the Corporation's anticipated receipt of future ESH REIT nontaxable distributions. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 the Company's effective tax rate was further impacted by a benefit of approximately $1.8 million with respect to the reversal of net deferred tax liabilities which related to the previously estimated 5% of taxable income expected to be retained under ESH REIT's prior 95% distribution policy, which was changed during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The Company’s income tax returns for the years 2013 to present are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities.

Equity-Based Compensation	EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION The Corporation and ESH REIT each maintain a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”), as amended and restated in 2015, approved by their shareholders. Under the LTIPs, the Corporation and ESH REIT may issue to eligible employees or directors restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”) or other equity-based awards, in respect of Paired Shares, with service, performance or market vesting conditions. The aggregate number of Paired Shares that may be the subject of awards under the LTIPs shall not exceed 8.0 million , of which no more than 4.0 million may be granted as incentive stock options. Each of the Corporation’s and ESH REIT’s LTIP has a share reserve of an equivalent number of shares of Corporation common stock and ESH REIT Class B common stock. As of June 30, 2017 , approximately 3.7 million Paired Shares were available for future issuance under the LTIPs. Equity-based compensation expense is recognized by amortizing the grant-date fair value of the equity-based awards, less estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of each award. A portion of the grant-date fair value of all equity-based awards is allocated to a share of Corporation common stock and a portion is allocated to a share of ESH REIT Class B common stock. Equity-based compensation expense was approximately $3.6 million and $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and approximately $6.3 million and $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2017 , unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding equity-based awards and the related weighted-average period over which it is expected to be recognized subsequent to June 30, 2017 , is presented in the following table. Total unrecognized compensation expense will be adjusted for actual forfeitures.

Service-Based Awards The Corporation and ESH REIT granted approximately 237,000 and 26,000 service-based awards, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2017 , with a weighted-average grant-date fair value per award of $17.47 and $17.56 , respectively. The grant-date fair value of awards with service vesting conditions is based on the closing price of a Paired Share on the date of grant. Service-based awards vest over a period of one to four years , subject to the grantee’s continued employment or service. Performance-Based Awards The Corporation granted approximately 192,000 awards with performance vesting conditions during the six months ended June 30, 2017 , with a grant-date fair value per award of $17.45 . The grant-date fair value of awards with performance vesting conditions is based on the closing price of a Paired Share on the date of grant. Equity-based compensation expense with respect to these awards is adjusted over the remainder of the fiscal year to reflect the probability of achievement of performance targets defined in the award agreements. These awards vest over the remainder of the fiscal year, subject to the grantee’s continued employment, with the ability to earn Paired Shares in a range of 0% to 200% of the awarded number of RSUs based on the achievement of defined performance targets. As of June 30, 2017 , all awards with performance vesting conditions are expected to be satisfied at approximately 100% of their target level. The Corporation granted approximately 104,000 awards with market vesting conditions during the six months ended June 30, 2017 , with a grant-date fair value per award of $18.58 . The grant-date fair value of awards with market vesting conditions is based on an independent third-party valuation. These awards vest at the end of a three -year period, subject to the grantee’s continued employment, with the ability to earn Paired Shares in a range of 0% to 150% of the awarded number of RSUs based on the total shareholder return of a Paired Share relative to the total shareholder return of other publicly traded lodging companies identified in the award agreements. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the grant-date fair value of awards with market vesting conditions was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation model with the following key assumptions: Expected holding period 2.86 years Risk-free rate of return 1.46 % Expected dividend yield 4.72 %

The aggregate number of Paired Shares that may be the subject of awards under the LTIPs shall not exceed 8.0 million , of which no more than 4.0 million may be granted as incentive stock options. Each of the Corporation’s and ESH REIT’s LTIP has a share reserve of an equivalent number of shares of Corporation common stock and ESH REIT Class B common stock. As of June 30, 2017 , approximately 3.7 million Paired Shares were available for future issuance under the LTIPs. Equity-based compensation expense is recognized by amortizing the grant-date fair value of the equity-based awards, less estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of each award. The grant-date fair value of equity-based awards is based on the closing price of a Paired Share on the date of grant. A portion of the grant-date fair value of all equity-based awards is allocated to a share of Corporation common stock and a portion is allocated to a share of ESH REIT Class B common stock. Expense related to the portion of the grant-date fair value with respect to a share of Corporation common stock is recorded as a payable due to the Corporation. Expense related to the portion of the grant-date fair value with respect to a share of ESH REIT Class B common stock is recorded as an increase to additional paid in capital. ESH REIT incurred approximately $0.1 million of equity-based compensation expense related to its equity-based awards during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . As of June 30, 2017 , there was approximately $0.6 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding equity-based awards, which is expected to be recognized subsequent to June 30, 2017 over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.2 years. Total unrecognized compensation expense will be adjusted for actual forfeitures. ESH REIT will have to pay more or less for a share of the Corporation common stock than it would have otherwise paid at the time of grant as the result of regular market changes in the value of a Paired Share between the time of grant and the time of settlement. An increase in the value allocated to a share of Corporation common stock due to market changes in the value of a Paired Share between the time of grant and the time of settlement is recorded as a distribution to the Corporation. A decrease in the value allocated to a share of Corporation common stock due to market changes in the value of a Paired Share between the time of grant and the time of settlement is recorded as additional paid in capital from the Corporation. The Corporation accounts for awards issued under its LTIP in a manner similar to ESH REIT. For all LTIP awards granted by the Corporation, ESH REIT will receive compensation for the fair value of the Class B shares on the date of settlement of such Class B shares by ESH REIT. As of June 30, 2017 , the Corporation has granted a total of approximately 3.2 million service-based, performance-based and market-based RSUs, of which approximately 1.2 million RSUs were either forfeited or settled. As a counterparty to these outstanding RSUs, ESH REIT is expected to issue and be compensated in cash for approximately 2.0 million shares of Class B common stock of ESH REIT in future periods, assuming performance-based and market-based awards vest at 100% and no forfeitures. RSA/RSU activity during the six months ended June 30, 2017 , was as follows: Number of RSAs/RSUs (in thousands) Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value Outstanding at January 1, 2017 28 $ 14.57 Granted 26 $ 17.56 Settled (7 ) $ 10.32 Forfeited — $ — Outstanding at June 30, 2017 47 $ 16.85 Vested at June 30, 2017 7 $ 16.00 Nonvested at June 30, 2017 40 $ 20.05

Retirement Benefits [Abstract]
Defined Contribution Plans	DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS ESA Management has a savings plan that qualifies under Section 401(k) of the Code for all employees meeting the eligibility requirements of the plan. For the period from January 1, 2016 through September 9, 2016, the plan had an employer-matching contribution of 100% of the first 3% of an employee's contribution and 50% of the next 2% of an employee's contribution, which vested immediately. Beginning January 1, 2017, the plan has an employer-matching contribution of 50% of the first 6% of an employee's contribution, which vests over an employee's initial three -year service period. The plan also provides for contributions up to 100% of eligible employee pretax salary, subject to the Code’s annual deferral limit of $18,000 during 2017 and 2016 .

Summary of Significant Accoun26

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2017
Entity Information [Line Items]
Interim Presentation	Interim Presentation— Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the combined annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2017. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2017 , the results of the Company’s operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and changes in equity and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations, including the impact of hotel renovations.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates —The preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management used significant estimates to determine the estimated useful lives of tangible assets as well as in the assessment of tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill, for impairment, estimated liabilities for insurance reserves and the grant-date fair value of certain equity-based awards. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment —Property and equipment additions are recorded at cost. Major improvements that extend the life or utility of property or equipment are capitalized and depreciated over a period equal to the shorter of the estimated useful life of the improvement or the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from two to 49 years . Management assesses the performance of long-lived assets for potential impairment quarterly, as well as when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of property and equipment is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of a hotel property to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by each hotel property. Impairment is recognized when estimated future undiscounted cash flows, including proceeds from disposition, are less than the carrying value of each hotel property. To the extent that a hotel property is impaired, the excess carrying amount over its estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment charge and reduces income from operations. Fair value is determined based upon the discounted cash flows of the hotel property, quoted market prices or independent appraisals, as considered necessary. The Company recognized impairment charges related to property and equipment of approximately $7.9 million and $20.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , respectively, and recognized no impairment charges for the three or six months ended June 30, 2016 (see Note 5). The estimation of future undiscounted cash flows is inherently uncertain and relies upon assumptions regarding current and future economic and market conditions. If such conditions change, an impairment charge to further reduce the carrying value of a hotel property could occur in a future period in which conditions change.
Segments	Segments —The Company’s hotel operations represent a single operating segment based on the way the Company manages its business. The Company’s hotels provide similar services, use similar processes to sell those services and sell those services to similar classes of customers. The amounts of long-lived assets and net revenues outside the U.S. are not significant for any period presented.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Accounting Standards Goodwill— In January 2017, the FASB issued an accounting standards update in which the guidance on testing for goodwill was updated to eliminate Step 2 in the determination on whether goodwill should be considered impaired. Annual and/or interim assessments are still required to be completed. This update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Statement of Cash Flows— In August and November 2016, the FASB issued accounting standards updates which provide additional clarity on the classification of specific events on the statement of cash flows. These events include debt prepayment and extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from settlement of insurance claims, distributions received from equity method investees, and beneficial interests in securitization transactions. These updates also require amounts generally described as restricted cash to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. These updates are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of these updates will require cash outflows related to debt prepayment and extinguishment costs to be classified as financing activities. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, debt prepayment and extinguishment costs included within net cash provided by operating activities totaled approximately $1.2 million and $3.7 million , respectively. Additionally, the effect of the adoption of these updates on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows will be to include restricted cash in the beginning and end of period balances of cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents. The change in restricted cash is currently included in investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Compensation—Stock Compensation— In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, and certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this update did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award requires an entity to apply modification accounting. This update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Derivatives and Hedging— In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to clarify the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts and to clarify that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this update did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Leases— In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which introduces a lessee model that requires a right-of-use asset and lease obligation to be presented on the balance sheet for all leases, whether operating or financing. The update eliminates the requirement in current U.S. GAAP for an entity to use bright-line tests in determining lease classification. The update also requires lessors to increase the transparency of their exposure to changes in value of their residual assets and how they manage that exposure. This update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied using a modified retrospective approach, which will require adjustment to all comparative periods presented. As of June 30, 2017 , using its incremental borrowing rate with respect to the future minimum lease payments under its operating leases (ground leases and corporate office lease), the Company has preliminarily determined that the lease liability would have been between approximately $16.0 million and $20.0 million and the right of use asset would have been between approximately $8.0 million and $12.0 million , which includes adjustments for accrued lease payments, above market lease liabilities and lease incentives. The recording of a lease obligation may increase total indebtedness for purposes of financial covenants within certain of the Company’s existing debt agreements; however, the Company currently does not expect this increase to cause instances of non-compliance with any of these covenants. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on its consolidated statements of operations or cash flows. The Company expects to elect the optional practical expedients which relate to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, initial direct costs for leases that commenced before the effective date, and the ability to use hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or to purchase the underlying asset. The election to apply these practical expedients will, in effect, mean the Company will continue to account for leases that commenced before the effective date in accordance with previous GAAP unless the lease is modified, except that the Company will recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all operating leases at each reporting date based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments that were tracked and disclosed under previous GAAP. Contractual Revenue— Since May 2014, the FASB has issued several accounting standards updates which replace existing revenue recognition accounting standards. These updates are based on the principle that revenue is recognized when an entity transfers control of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. These updates also require more detailed disclosure to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. These updates permit transition under the full retrospective method, the modified retrospective approach that utilizes certain practical expedients and the cumulative effect method. These updates are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the amount and/or timing of revenue recognition. The assessment process includes the following; (i) review of contracts in order to determine if a portfolio approach may be acceptable for concluding on performance obligations and delivery of such obligations under the contracts; (ii) analysis on the appropriateness of bundling delivered goods and services under the contracts; (iii) the determination as to whether the Company acts as either a principal or an agent under certain distribution agreements, which may impact the timing and amount of revenue recognized; and (iv) other related matters, including the enhancement of revenue related disclosures.
ESH REIT
Entity Information [Line Items]
Interim Presentation	Interim Presentation —Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. ESH REIT believes the disclosures made are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the combined annual report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 28, 2017. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary to present fairly ESH REIT’s financial position as of June 30, 2017 , the results of ESH REIT’s operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and changes in equity and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance because of the impact of accounting for contingent rental payments under lease arrangements.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates —The preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management used significant estimates to determine the estimated useful lives of tangible assets as well as in the assessment of tangible and intangible assets, including goodwill, for impairment, estimated liabilities for insurance reserves and the grant-date fair value of certain equity-based awards. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment —Property and equipment additions are recorded at cost. Major improvements that extend the life or utility of property or equipment are capitalized and depreciated over a period equal to the shorter of the estimated useful life of the improvement or the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from two to 49 years . Management assesses the performance of long-lived assets for potential impairment quarterly, as well as when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of a group of assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of property and equipment is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of a group of hotel properties (groups of hotel properties align with hotels as they are grouped under ESH REIT’s leases) to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by each group of hotel properties. Impairment is recognized when estimated future undiscounted cash flows, including proceeds from disposition, are less than the carrying value of each group of hotel properties. To the extent that a group of hotel properties is impaired, their excess carrying amount over their estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment charge and reduces income from operations. Fair value is determined based upon the discounted cash flows of a group of hotel properties, quoted market prices or independent appraisals, as considered necessary. No impairment charges were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2017. ESH REIT recognized impairment charges related to property and equipment of approximately $15.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and no impairment charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 (see Note 5). The estimation of future undiscounted cash flows is inherently uncertain and relies upon assumptions regarding current and future economic and market conditions. If such conditions change, an impairment charge to further reduce the carrying value of a group of hotel properties could occur in a future period in which conditions change.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition —ESH REIT’s sole source of revenues is rental revenue derived from leases with subsidiaries of the Corporation (the Operating Lessees). ESH REIT records rental revenues on a straight-line basis as they are earned during the lease terms. Rents receivable from Extended Stay America, Inc. on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets represent monthly rental amounts contractually due. Deferred rents receivable from Extended Stay America, Inc. on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets represent the cumulative difference between straight-line rental revenues recognized and rental revenues contractually due. As scheduled rent payments begin to exceed straight-line rental revenue, this amount, approximately $32.0 million as of June 30, 2017 , will gradually decrease through the remainder of the lease terms until it is zero at the end of the lease terms in October 2018. Lease rental payments received prior to rendering services are included in unearned rental revenues from Extended Stay America, Inc. on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contingent rental revenues, specifically percentage rental revenues related to hotel revenues of the Operating Lessees, are recognized when such amounts are fixed and determinable (i.e., only when percentage rental revenue thresholds have been achieved).
Segments	Segments —ESH REIT’s business represents a single operating segment based on the way ESH REIT manages its business. ESH REIT leases the hotel properties in similar manners to similar customers. The amounts of long-lived assets and net revenues outside the U.S. are not significant for any period presented.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Accounting Standards Goodwill— In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standards update in which the guidance on testing for goodwill was updated to eliminate Step 2 in the determination on whether goodwill should be considered impaired. Annual and/or interim assessments are still required to be completed. This update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. ESH REIT does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on ESH REIT’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Statement of Cash Flows— In August and November 2016, the FASB issued accounting standards updates which provide additional clarity on the classification of specific events on the statement of cash flows. These events include debt prepayment and extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from settlement of insurance claims, distributions received from equity method investees, and beneficial interests in securitization transactions. These updates also require amounts generally described as restricted cash to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. These updates are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of these updates will require cash outflows related to debt prepayment and extinguishment costs to be classified as financing activities. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, debt prepayment and extinguishment costs included within net cash provided by operating activities totaled approximately $1.2 million and $3.7 million , respectively. Additionally, the effect of the adoption of these updates on ESH REIT's consolidated statements of cash flows will be to include restricted cash in the beginning and end of period balances of cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents. The change in restricted cash is currently included in investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Compensation—Stock Compensation— In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, and certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. ESH REIT adopted this update on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this update did not have a material effect on ESH REIT’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award requires an entity to apply modification accounting. This update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. ESH REIT does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on ESH REIT’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Derivatives and Hedging— In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to clarify the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts and to clarify that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. ESH REIT adopted this update on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this update did not have a material effect on ESH REIT’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Leases— In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which introduces a lessee model that requires a right-of-use asset and lease obligation to be presented on the balance sheet for all leases, whether operating or financing. The update eliminates the requirement in current U.S. GAAP for an entity to use bright-line tests in determining lease classification. The update also requires lessors to increase the transparency of their exposure to changes in value of their residual assets and how they manage that exposure. This update will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied using a modified retrospective approach, which will require adjustment to all comparative periods presented. As of June 30, 2017 , using its incremental borrowing rate with respect to the future minimum lease payments under its operating leases (ground leases), ESH REIT has preliminarily determined that the lease liability would have been between approximately $8.0 million and $12.0 million and the right of use asset would have been between approximately $2.0 million and $6.0 million , which includes adjustments for accrued lease payments, above market lease liabilities and lease incentives. The recording of a lease obligation may increase total indebtedness for purposes of financial covenants within certain of ESH REIT’s existing debt agreements; however, ESH REIT does not expect this increase to cause instances of non-compliance with any of these covenants. ESH REIT currently does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material effect on its consolidated statements of operations or cash flows. ESH REIT expects to elect the optional practical expedients which relate to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, initial direct costs for leases that commenced before the effective date, and the ability to use hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or to purchase the underlying asset. The election to apply these practical expedients will, in effect, mean ESH REIT will continue to account for leases that commenced before the effective date in accordance with previous GAAP unless the lease is modified, except that ESH REIT will recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all operating leases at each reporting date based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments that were tracked and disclosed under previous GAAP.
