Structure | 1. Structure Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc. (“Lightstone REIT III”), is a Maryland corporation, formed on October 5, 2012, which elected to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2015. The Lightstone REIT III is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT, and substantially all of its current and future business will be conducted through Lightstone Value Plus REIT III LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). As of December 31, 2020, Lightstone REIT III held an approximately 99% general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership’s common units. Lightstone REIT III and the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company” and the use of “we,” “our,” “us” or similar pronouns refers to Lightstone REIT III, its Operating Partnership or the Company as required by the context in such pronoun used. The Company has and will continue to seek to acquire a diverse portfolio of real estate assets and real estate-related investments, including hotels, other commercial and/or residential properties, primarily located in the United States. All such properties may be acquired and operated by the Company alone or jointly with another party. The Company may also originate or acquire mortgage loans secured by real estate. Although the Company expects that most of its investments will be of these types, it may make other investments. In fact, it may invest in whatever types of real estate-related investments that it believes are in its best interests. The Company currently has one operating segment. As of December 31, 2020, the Company (i) majority owned and consolidated the operating results and financial condition of eight limited service hotels containing a total of 872 rooms and an unconsolidated 50.0% membership interest in LVP LIC Hotel JV LLC (the “Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture”). The Company accounts for its unconsolidated membership interest in the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting. The Company’s advisor is Lightstone Value Plus REIT III LLC (the “Advisor”), which is majority owned by David Lichtenstein. On July 16, 2014, the Advisor contributed $2,000 to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 200 limited partner units in the Operating Partnership. The Advisor also owns 20,000 shares of our common stock (“Common Shares”) which were issued on December 24, 2012 for $200,000, or $10.00 per share. Mr. Lichtenstein also is a majority owner of the equity interests of the Lightstone Group, LLC. The Lightstone Group, LLC served as the Company’s sponsor (the ’’Sponsor’’) during its initial public offering (the “Offering”) which terminated on March 31, 2017. Mr. Lichtenstein owns 222,222 Common Shares which were issued on December 11, 2014 for $2.0 million, or $9.00 per share. Pursuant to the terms of an advisory agreement and subject to the oversight of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”), the Advisor has primary responsibility for making investment decisions on behalf of the Company and managing its day-to-day operations. Through his ownership and control of the Lightstone Group, LLC, Mr. Lichtenstein is the indirect owner and manager of Lightstone SLP III LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Special Limited Partner”), which owns 242 subordinated participation interests (“Subordinated Participation Interests”) in the Operating Partnership which were acquired for $12.1 million in connection with the Offering. Mr. Lichtenstein also acts as the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. As a result, he exerts influence over but does not control Lightstone REIT III or the Operating Partnership. The Company does not have any employees. The Advisor receives compensation and fees for services related to the investment and management of the Company’s assets. The Company’s Advisor has certain affiliates which may which may manage the properties the Company acquires. However, the Company also contracts with other unaffiliated third-party property managers, principally for the management of its hospitality properties. The Company’s Common Shares are not currently listed on a national securities exchange. The Company may seek to list its Common Shares for trading on a national securities exchange only if a majority of its independent directors believe listing would be in the best interest of its stockholders. The Company does not intend to list its Common Shares at this time. The Company does not anticipate that there would be any market for its Common Shares until they are listed for trading. In the event the Company does not begin the process of achieving a liquidity event prior to March 31, 2025, which is the eighth anniversary of the termination of its Offering, its charter requires either (a) an amendment to its charter to extend the deadline to begin the process of achieving a liquidity event, or (b) the holding of a stockholders meeting to vote on a proposal for an orderly liquidation of its portfolio. COVID-19 Pandemic Operations and Liquidity Update On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic leading many countries, including the United States, particularly at the individual state level, to subsequently impose various degrees of restrictions and other measures, including, but not limited to, mandatory temporary closures, quarantine guidelines, limitations on travel, and “shelter in place” rules in an effort to reduce its duration and the severity of its spread. Although the COVID-19 pandemic has continued to evolve, most of these previously imposed restrictions and other measures have now been reduced and/or lifted. However, the COVID-19 pandemic remains highly unpredictable and dynamic and its duration and extent is likely dependent on numerous developments such as the regulatory approval, mass production, administration and ultimate effectiveness of vaccines, as well as the timeline to achieve a level of sufficient herd immunity amongst the general population. Accordingly, the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have negative effects on the overall health of the U.S. economy for the foreseeable future. The extent to which the Company’s business may be affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will largely depend on both current and future developments, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, room demand for the Company’s consolidated and unconsolidated hotels began to significantly decline in March 2020 and while there has been some slight improvement; room demand continues to be substantially below historical levels. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant negative impact on the Company’s operations and financial results to date and the Company currently expects that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have a significant negative impact on its results of operations, financial position and cash flow for the foreseeable future. The Company cannot currently estimate if and when room demand will fully recover to pre-pandemic levels for its hotels. In light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operating results of its hotels, the Company has taken various actions to preserve its liquidity, including, but not limited to, those described below: ● The Company implemented cost reduction strategies for all of its hotels, leading to reductions in certain operating expenses and capital expenditures. ● Amendments to Revolving Credit Facility – On June 2, 2020, the Company’s revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) was amended to provide for (i) the deferral of the six monthly debt service payments aggregating $0.8 million for the period from April 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020 until July 13, 2022; (ii) a 100 bps reduction in the interest rate spread to LIBOR + 2.15%, subject to a 3.00% floor, for the six-month period from September 1, 2020 through February 28, 2021; (iii) the Company pre-funding $0.8 million into a cash collateral reserve account to cover the six monthly debt service payments due from October 1, 2020 through March 1, 2021; and (iv) a waiver of all financial covenants for quarter-end periods before June 30, 2021. Additionally, a principal paydown of $0.6 million, which was previously due on April 1, 2020 was bifurcated into two separate principal paydowns, each one $0.3 million, which were made in June 2020 and September 2020. Additionally, the Company and the lender have agreed in principle to certain See Note 6 for additional information. ● Paycheck Protection Program Loans - In April 2020, the Company’s hotels received $1.5 million from loans provided under the federal Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP Loans”). Subsequently, during the first quarter of 2021, the Company’s hotels received an additional $1.9 million from PPP Loans. See Note 7 for additional information. ● On June 19, 2019, the Board of Directors had previously determined to suspend regular monthly distributions and, as a result, did not declare any distributions on the Company’s Common Shares during 2020. Additionally, on March 19, 2020, the Board of Directors approved the suspension of all redemptions under the Company’s shareholder redemption program. See Note 8 for additional information. ● In May 2020, the Company had approximately $5.2 million of funds released to us from an escrow account. See Note 3 for additional information. ● The Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture and the lender have agreed in principle to Based on these actions, along with its cash and cash equivalents on hand, the Company believes that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations for at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. Noncontrolling Interests – Partners of the Operating Partnership Limited Partner On July 16, 2014, the Advisor contributed $2,000 to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 200 limited partner units in the Operating Partnership. The Advisor has the right to convert limited partner units into cash or, at the Company’s option, an equal number of its Common Shares. Special Limited Partner In connection with the Company’s Offering, which terminated on March 31, 2017, the Special Limited Partner purchased from the Operating Partnership an aggregate of approximately 242 Subordinated Participation Interests for consideration of $12.1 million. The Subordinated Participation Interests were each purchased for $50,000 in consideration and may be entitled to receive liquidation distributions upon the liquidation of Lightstone REIT III. As the majority owner of the Special Limited Partner, Mr. Lichtenstein is the beneficial owner of a 99% interest in such Subordinated Participation Interests and will thus receive an indirect benefit from any distributions made in respect thereof. These Subordinated Participation Interests entitle the Special Limited Partner to a portion of any regular and liquidation distributions that the Company makes to its stockholders, but only after its stockholders have received a stated preferred return. From the Company’s inception through December 31, 2020, no distributions have been declared or paid on the Subordinated Participation Interests. The Advisor and its affiliates and the Special Limited Partner are related parties of the Company. Certain of these entities are entitled to compensation for services related to the investment, management and disposition of our assets during the Company’s acquisition, operational and liquidation stages. The compensation levels during the acquisition and operational stages are based on the cost of acquired properties/investments and the annual revenue earned from such properties/investments, and other such fees and expense reimbursements as outlined in each of the respective agreements. See Note 8 – Related Party Transactions for additional information. 1. Structure Lightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc.

Although the COVID-19 pandemic has continued to evolve, most of these previously imposed restrictions and other measures have now been reduced and/or lifted. However, the COVID-19 pandemic remains highly unpredictable and dynamic and its duration and extent is likely dependent on numerous developments such as the regulatory approval, mass production, administration and ultimate effectiveness of vaccines, as well as the timeline to achieve a level of sufficient herd immunity amongst the general population. Accordingly, the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have negative effects on the overall health of the U.S. economy for the foreseeable future. The extent to which the Company’s business may be affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will largely depend on both current and future developments, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, room demand for the Company’s consolidated and unconsolidated hotels began to significantly decline in March 2020 and while there has been some slight improvement; room demand continues to be substantially below historical levels. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant negative impact on the Company’s operations and financial results to date and the Company currently expects that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have a significant negative impact on its results of operations, financial position and cash flow for the foreseeable future. The Company cannot currently estimate if and when room demand will fully recover to pre-pandemic levels for its hotels. In light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operating results of its hotels, the Company has taken various actions to preserve its liquidity, including, but not limited to, those described below: ● The Company implemented cost reduction strategies for all of its hotels, leading to reductions in certain operating expenses and capital expenditures. ● Amendments to Revolving Credit Facility – On June 2, 2020, the Company’s revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) was amended to provide for (i) the deferral of the six monthly debt service payments aggregating $0.8 million for the period from April 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020 until July 13, 2022; (ii) a 100 bps reduction in the interest rate spread to LIBOR + 2.15%, subject to a 3.00% floor, for the six-month period from September 1, 2020 through February 28, 2021; (iii) the Company pre-funding $0.8 million into a cash collateral reserve account to cover the six monthly debt service payments due from October 1, 2020 through March 1, 2021; and (iv) a waiver of all financial covenants for quarter-end periods before June 30, 2021. Additionally, a principal paydown of $0.6 million, which was previously due on April 1, 2020 was bifurcated into two separate principal paydowns, each one $0.3 million, which were made in June 2020 and September 2020. Subsequently, on March XX, 2021, the Revolving Credit Facility was further amended providing for (i) the Company to make another principal paydown of $3.8 million, (ii) the Company to fund an additional $0.9 million into the cash collateral reserve account; (iii) a waiver of all financial covenants for quarter-end periods through September 30, 2021 with a phased-in gradual return to the full financial covenant requirements over the quarter-end periods beginning December 31, 2021 through March 31, 2023; (iv) two one-year extension options at the lender’s sole discretion; and (v) certain limitations and restrictions on asset sales and additional borrowings related to the pledged collateral. See Note 6 for additional information. ● Paycheck Protection Program Loans - In April 2020, the Company’s hotels received $1.5 million from loans provided under the federal Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP Loans”). Subsequently, during the first quarter of 2021, the Company’s hotels received an additional $1.9 million from PPP Loans. See Note 7 for additional information. ● On June 19, 2019, the Board of Directors had previously determined to suspend regular monthly distributions and, as a result, did not declare any distributions on the Company’s Common Shares during 2020. Additionally, on March 19, 2020, the Board of Directors approved the suspension of all redemptions under the Company’s shareholder redemption program. See Note 8 for additional information. ● In May 2020, the Company had approximately $5.2 million of funds released to us from an escrow account. See Note 3 for additional information. ● The Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture has obtained various amendments to its non-recourse mortgage loan secured by the Hilton Garden Inn – Long Island City. See Note 4 for additional information. ● Based on these actions, along with its cash and cash equivalents on hand, the Company believes that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations for at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. Noncontrolling Interests – Partners of the Operating Partnership Limited Partner On July 16, 2014, the Advisor contributed $2,000 to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 200 limited partner units in the Operating Partnership. The Advisor has the right to convert limited partner units into cash or, at the Company’s option, an equal number of its Common Shares. Special Limited Partner In connection with the Company’s Offering, which terminated on March 31, 2017, the Special Limited Partner purchased from the Operating Partnership an aggregate of approximately 242 Subordinated Participation Interests for consideration of $12.1 million. The Subordinated Participation Interests were each purchased for $50,000 in consideration and may be entitled to receive liquidation distributions upon the liquidation of Lightstone REIT III. As the majority owner of the Special Limited Partner, Mr. Lichtenstein is the beneficial owner of a 99% interest in such Subordinated Participation Interests and will thus receive an indirect benefit from any distributions made in respect thereof. These Subordinated Participation Interests entitle the Special Limited Partner to a portion of any regular and liquidation distributions that the Company makes to its stockholders, but only after its stockholders have received a stated preferred return. From the Company’s inception through December 31, 2020, no distributions have been declared or paid on the Subordinated Participation Interests. The Advisor and its affiliates and the Special Limited Partner are related parties of the Company. Certain of these entities are entitled to compensation for services related to the investment, management and disposition of our assets during the Company’s acquisition, operational and liquidation stages. The compensation levels during the acquisition and operational stages are based on the cost of acquired properties/investments and the annual revenue earned from such properties/investments, and other such fees and expense reimbursements as outlined in each of the respective agreements. See Note 8 – Related Party Transactions for additional information. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lightstone REIT III and the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries (over which Lightstone REIT III exercises financial and operating control). As of December 31, 2020, the Company had a 99% general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during a reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate and depreciable lives. Application of these assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. Investments in other real estate entities where the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not exercise financial and operating control, and is not considered to be the primary beneficiary are accounted for using the equity method. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As required by the Company’s lenders, restricted cash is held in escrow accounts for anticipated capital expenditures, real estate taxes, debt service payments and other reserves for certain of our consolidated properties. Capital reserves are typically utilized for non-operating expenses such as major capital expenditures. Alternatively, a lender may require its own formula for an escrow of capital reserves. As of December 31, 2019, restricted cash also included approximately $5.2 million resulting from the sale of a SpringHill Suites by Marriott hotel (the “SpringHill Suites – Green Bay”) located in Green Bay, Wisconsin (see Note 3). These funds were temporarily placed in escrow with a qualified intermediary to potentially facilitate a like-kind exchange transaction in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. However, the Company decided not to pursue a like-kind exchange transaction and the funds were subsequently released in May 2020. The following is a summary of the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash total as presented in our statements of cash flows for the periods presented: December 31, 2020 2019 Cash and cash equivalents $ 26,998,685 $ 6,102,573 Restricted cash 2,972,561 7,440,620 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 29,971,246 $ 13,543,193 Marketable Securities Marketable securities consist of equity and debt securities that are designated as available-for-sale. Marketable debt securities are recorded at fair value and unrealized holding gains or losses are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company’s marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value and unrealized holding gains and losses are recognized on the consolidated statements of operations. Realized gains or losses resulting from the sale of these securities are determined based on the specific identification of the securities sold. An impairment charge is recognized when the decline in the fair value of a debt security below the amortized cost basis is determined to be other-than-temporary. The Company considers various factors in determining whether to recognize an impairment charge, including the duration and severity of any decline in fair value below our amortized cost basis, any adverse changes in the financial condition of the issuers and our intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. Revenues Revenues consist of amounts derived from hotel operations, including occupied hotel rooms and sales of food, beverage and other ancillary services and are presented on a disaggregated basis below. Revenues are recorded net of any sales or occupancy tax collected from our guests. Room revenue is generated through contracts with customers whereby the customers agree to pay a daily rate for right to use a hotel room. The Company’s contractual performance obligations are fulfilled at the end of the day that the customer is provided the room and revenue is recognized daily at the contract rate. Payment from the customer is secured at the end of the contract upon check-out by the customer from our hotels. The Company participates in frequent guest programs sponsored by the brand owners of our hotels whereby the brand owner allows guests to earn loyalty points during their hotel stay. The Company recognizes revenue at the amount earned that it will receive from the brand owner when a guest redeems their loyalty points by staying at one of the Company’s hotels. Revenue from food, beverage and other ancillary services is generated when a customer chooses to purchase goods or services separately from a hotel room and revenue is recognized when these goods or services are provided to the customer and the Company’s contractual performance obligations have been fulfilled. Some contracts for rooms, food, beverage or other services require an upfront deposit which is recorded as deferred revenues (or contract liabilities) and recognized once the performance obligations are satisfied. The contractual liabilities are not significant. The Company notes no significant judgments regarding the recognition of room, food and beverage or other revenues. For the Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 Revenues Room $ 13,646,285 $ 31,057,929 Food, beverage and other 528,403 1,397,853 Total revenues $ 14,174,688 $ 32,455,782 Accounts Receivable The Company analyzes accounts receivable and historical bad debt levels, customer credit worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company’s reported net income or loss is directly affected by management’s estimate of the collectability of accounts receivable. Investments in Real Estate Accounting for Asset Acquisitions When the Company makes an investment in real estate assets, the cost of real estate assets acquired in an asset acquisition are allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, furniture and fixtures and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases, and the value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their relative fair values, at the date of acquisition, based on evaluation of information including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other relevant market data. Fees incurred related to asset acquisitions are capitalized as part of the cost of the investment. Accounting for Business Combinations Upon the acquisition of real estate operating properties that meet the definition of a business, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets and identified intangible assets and liabilities and certain liabilities such as assumed debt and contingent liabilities, at the date of acquisition, based on evaluation of information and estimates available at that date, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other relevant market data. Based on these estimates, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase and allocates the initial purchase price to the applicable assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests, if any. As final information regarding fair value of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests is received and estimates are refined, appropriate adjustments are made to the purchase price allocation. The allocations are finalized as soon as all the information necessary is available and in no case later than within twelve months from the acquisition date. Fees incurred related to the acquisition of real estate operating properties that meet the definition of a business are expensed as incurred within general and administrative costs within the consolidated statements of operations. Carrying Value of Assets The amounts to be capitalized as a result of periodic improvements and additions to real estate property, when applicable, and the periods over which the assets are depreciated or amortized, are determined based on the application of accounting standards that may require estimates as to fair value and the allocation of various costs to the individual assets. Differences in the amount attributed to the assets may be significant based upon the assumptions made in calculating these estimates. Impairment Evaluation The Company evaluates its investments in real estate assets for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable for a particular property. The Company evaluates the recoverability of its investments in real estate assets at the lowest identifiable level, the individual property level. No single indicator would necessarily result in the Company preparing an estimate to determine if an individual property’s future undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying value. The Company uses judgment to determine if the severity of any single indicator, or the fact there are a number of indicators of less severity that when combined, would result in an indication that a property requires an estimate of the undiscounted cash flows to determine if an impairment has occurred. Relevant facts and circumstances include, among others, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results and significant negative industry or economic trends. The estimated cash flows used for the impairment analysis are subjective and require the Company to use its judgment and the determination of estimated fair value are based on the Company’s plans for the respective assets and the Company’s views of market and economic conditions. The estimates consider matters such as future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of demand, competition, and recent sales data for comparable properties. An impairment loss is recognized only if the carrying amount of a property is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation expense is computed based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the applicable real estate asset. The Company generally uses estimated useful lives of up to thirty-nine years for buildings and improvements and five to ten years for furniture and fixtures. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Investments in Unconsolidated Entities The Company evaluates all investments in other entities for consolidation. The Company considers its percentage interest in the joint venture, evaluation of control and whether a variable interest entity exists when determining whether or not the investment qualifies for consolidation or if it should be accounted for as an unconsolidated investment under the equity method of accounting. If an investment qualifies for the equity method of accounting, the Company’s investment is recorded initially at cost, and subsequently adjusted for equity in net income or loss and cash contributions and distributions. The net income or loss of an unconsolidated investment is allocated to its investors in accordance with the provisions of the operating agreement of the entity. The allocation provisions in these agreements may differ from the ownership interest held by each investor. Differences, if any, between the carrying amount of the Company’s investment in the respective joint venture and our share of the underlying equity of such unconsolidated entity are amortized over the respective lives of the underlying assets as applicable. These items are reported as a single line item in the statements of operations as income or loss from investments in unconsolidated affiliated real estate entities. The Company reviews investments for impairment in value whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such investment may not be recoverable. An investment is impaired only if management’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. The ultimate realization of our investment in partially owned entities is dependent on a number of factors including the performance of that entity and market conditions. If the Company determines that a decline in the value of a partially owned entity is other than temporary, it will record an impairment charge. Deferred Costs The Company capitalizes initial direct costs associated with financing activities. The costs are capitalized upon the execution of the loan, presented in the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the corresponding loan and amortized over the initial term of the corresponding loan. Amortization of deferred loan costs will begin in the period during which the loan is originated using the effective interest method over the term of the loan. Income Taxes The Company elected to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2015. If the Company remains qualified as a REIT, it generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its net taxable income that it distributes to its stockholders. To maintain its REIT qualification, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it annually distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (which does not equal net income, as calculated in accordance with GAAP), determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding any net capital gain. If the Company fails to remain qualified for taxation as a REIT in any subsequent year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, its income for that year will be taxed at regular corporate rates, and it may be precluded from qualifying for treatment as a REIT for the four-year period following its failure to qualify as a REIT. Such an event could materially adversely affect the Company’s net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. The Company engages in certain activities through taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”), including when it acquires a hotel it usually establishes a TRS and enters into an operating lease agreement for the hotel. As such, the Company may be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes and franchise taxes from these activities. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no material uncertain income tax positions. Additionally, even if the Company continues to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it may still be subject to some U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and property and to U.S. federal income taxes and excise taxes on our undistributed income, if any. Concentration of Risk The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed U.S. federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash. Basic and Diluted Net Earnings per Common Share Net earnings per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and other assets, accounts payable and other accrued expenses, due to/from related parties, distributions payable and notes payable approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The estimated fair value of our mortgages payable is as follows: As of As of Carrying Amount Estimated Fair Value Carrying Amount Estimated Fair Value Mortgages payable $ 64,924,427 $ 64,823,777 $ 65,983,719 $ 65,974,411 The fair value of our mortgages payable was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by market interest rates. New Accounting Pronouncements The Company has reviewed and determined that other recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows, or do not apply to its current operations. |

Disposition of SpringHill Suites - Green Bay | 3. Disposition of SpringHill Suites – Green Bay On August 19, 2019, certain wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Green Bay Sellers”) of the Operating Partnership and MCR Hospitality Fund REIT LLC (the “Green Bay Buyer”), an unaffiliated third party, entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “SpringHill Suites – Green Bay Agreement”) pursuant to which the Green Bay Sellers would dispose of the SpringHill Suites – Green Bay to the Green Bay Buyer for a contractual sales price of $19.6 million. On October 24, 2019, pursuant to the terms of the SpringHill Suites – Green Bay Agreement, the Green Bay Sellers completed the disposition of the SpringHill Suites – Green Bay to the Green Bay Buyer for $19.4 million, net of expenses of $0.2 million, resulting in a gain on the disposition of investment property of approximately $1.4 million. Additionally, approximately $12.0 million of the proceeds were used for a required paydown of the Company’s nonrecourse revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) (See Note 6) and approximately $5.2 million of the proceeds were placed in escrow with a qualified intermediary to facilitate a potential like-kind exchange transaction in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and is classified as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019. However, the Company decided not to pursue a like-kind exchange transaction and the funds were subsequently released in May 2020. The disposition of the SpringHill Suites – Green Bay did not qualify to be reported as discontinued operations since the disposition did not represent a strategic shift in the Company’s operations that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. Accordingly, the operating results of the SpringHill Suites – Green Bay are reflected in the Company’s results from continuing operations for all periods presented through its date of disposition. |

Prior to entering into The Cove Transaction, Maximus previously owned a separate noncontrolling interest in the Cove Joint Venture. The Company paid approximately $20.0 million for a 22.5% membership interest in the Cove Joint Venture. The Company’s ownership interest in the Cove Joint Venture was a non-managing interest. The Company determined that the Cove Joint Venture was a variable interest entity but the Company was not the primary beneficiary. The Company accounted for its ownership interest in the Cove Joint Venture in accordance with the equity method of accounting because it exerted significant influence over but did not control the Cove Joint Venture. The Company commenced recording its allocated portion of profit/loss and cash distributions beginning as of January 31, 2017 with respect to its 22.5% membership interest in the Cove Joint Venture. Subsequent to the Company’s acquisition of its 22.5% membership interest in the Cove Joint Venture, it made an aggregate of $2.6 million of additional capital contributions and received aggregate distributions of $0.9 million. All of these additional capital contributions were made and distributions received in periods prior to 2020.

The Company’s membership interest in the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture is a co-managing interest. The Company accounts for its membership interest in the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture in accordance with the equity method of accounting because it exerts significant influence over but does not control the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture. All capital contributions and distributions of earnings from the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture are made on a pro rata basis in proportion to each member’s equity interest percentage. Any distributions in excess of earnings from the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture are made to the members pursuant to the terms of the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture’s operating agreement. The Company commenced recording its allocated portion of profit/loss and cash distributions beginning as of March 27, 2018 with respect to its membership interest of 50.0% in the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture. In light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operating results of the Hilton Garden Inn – Long Island City, the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture has entered into certain amendments with respect the Hilton Garden Inn Mortgage as discussed below. On June 2, 2020, the Hilton Garden Inn Mortgage was amended to provide for (i) the deferral of the six monthly debt service payments aggregating $0.9 million for the period from April 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020 until March 27, 2023; (ii) a 100 bps reduction in the interest rate spread to LIBOR + 2.15%, subject to a 4.03% floor, for the six-month period from September 1, 2020 through February 28, 2021; (iii) the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture pre-funding $1.2 million into a cash collateral reserve account to cover the six monthly debt service payments due from October 1, 2020 through March 1, 2021; and (iv) waiver of all financial covenants for quarter-end periods before June 30, 2021.

Marketable Securities and Fair Value Measurements Marketable Securities The following is a summary of the Company’s available for sale securities as of the dates indicated: As of December 31, 2020 Adjusted Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Marketable Securities: Equity securities: Mutual funds $ 218,206 $ 258 $ - $ 218,464 Debt securities: Corporate Bonds 3,229,608 10,039 (231,258 ) 3,008,389 Total $ 3,447,814 $ 10,297 $ (231,258 ) $ 3,226,853 As of December 31, 2019 Adjusted Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Fair Value Marketable Securities: Equity securities: Mutual funds $ 387,529 $ 805 $ - $ 388,334 Debt securities: Corporate Bonds 2,919,095 60,550 (139,220 ) 2,840,425 Total $ 3,306,624 $ 61,355 $ (139,220 ) $ 3,228,759 During 2020, financial markets experienced significant volatility in response to the current COVID-19 pandemic, including significant changes in market interest rates and market prices of certain equity securities. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company experienced a holding loss of approximately $0.1 million on its available for sale marketable debt securities. The holding loss is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. As a result, the Company’s marketable debt securities had an aggregate net unrealized loss of approximately $0.2 million as of December 31, 2020. The Company considers the declines in market value of its investments in debt securities to be temporary in nature as the unrealized losses were caused primarily by financial market volatility associated with the current COVID-19 pandemic resulting in significant reductions in market interest rates and market prices of certain debt securities. When evaluating its investments in debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors such as the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto, and the Company’s intent to sell, or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell, the debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not recognize any impairment charges on its investments in debt securities. As of December 31, 2020, the Company does not consider any of its investments in debt securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The Company may sell certain of its investments in marketable debt securities prior to their stated maturities for strategic purposes, in anticipation of credit deterioration, or for duration management. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value: ● Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. ● Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. ● Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s equity securities were classified as Level 1 assets and the Company’s debt securities were classified as Level 2 assets. There were no transfers between the level classifications during the year ended December 31, 2020. The fair values of the Company’s investments in equity securities are measured using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and debt securities are measured using readily available quoted prices for similar assets. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of our investments in debt securities with stated contractual maturity dates, accounted for as available-for-sale securities and classified by the contractual maturity date of the securities: As of Due in 1 year $ - Due in 1 year through 5 years 970,880 Due in 5 year through 10 years - Due after 10 years 2,037,502 Total $ 3,008,382 The Company did not have any other significant financial assets or liabilities, which would require revised valuations that are recognized at fair value. |

The Revolving Credit Facility provides the Company with a line of credit of up to $60.0 million pursuant to which it may designate properties as collateral that allow borrowings up to a 65.0% loan-to-value ratio subject to also meeting certain financial covenants, including a prescribed minimum debt yield. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for monthly interest-only payments and the entire principal balance is due upon its expiration. The Revolving Credit Facility, which was entered into on July 13, 2016, had an initial maturity date of July 13, 2019, subject to two one-year options to extend at the sole discretion of the lender. The initial interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility was LIBOR+ 4.95% until it was reduced to LIBOR + 3.50% effective June 18, 2018. On July 11, 2019, the Company and the lender amended the Revolving Credit Facility to extend the initial maturity date for 60 days to provide additional time to finalize the terms of a long-term extension. In connection with this amendment, the interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility was reduced from LIBOR + 3.50% to LIBOR + 3.15%, effective July 1, 2019 and the requirements under the minimum debt yield ratio were modified effective as of March 31, 2019. On August 22, 2019, the Company and the lender further amended the Revolving Credit Facility to extend the maturity date to July 13, 2022, subject to two, one-year options to extend at the sole discretion of the lender. In connection with this amendment, the Company made principal paydowns of $0.6 million on both August 22, 2019 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and in certain circumstances would be required to make an additional principal paydown of $0.6 million on April 1, 2020. On June 2, 2020, the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility was amended to provide for (i) the deferral of the six monthly debt service payments aggregating $0.8 million for the period from April 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020 until July 13, 2022; (ii) a 100 bps reduction in the interest rate spread to LIBOR + 2.15%, subject to a 3.00% floor, for the six-month period from September 1, 2020 through February 28, 2021; (iii) the Company pre-funding $0.8 million into a cash collateral reserve account (of which $0.3 million was included in restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020) to cover the six monthly debt service payments due from October 1, 2020 through March 1, 2021; and (iv) a waiver of all financial covenants for quarter-end periods before June 30, 2021. Additionally, a principal paydown of $0.6 million, which was previously due on April 1, 2020 was bifurcated into two separate principal paydowns, each one $0.3 million, which were made in June 2020 and September 2020. Additionally, the Company and the lender have agreed in principle to certain As of December 31, 2020, the Revolving Credit Facility had an outstanding principal balance of approximately $38.4 million and six of the Company’s hotel properties were pledged as collateral. Additionally, no additional borrowings were available under the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2020. Home2 Suites Promissory Note On October 5, 2016, the Company entered into a non-recourse promissory note (the “Home2 Suites Promissory Note”) for $28.4 million. The Promissory Note has a term of five years, bears interest at 4.73% and requires monthly interest and principal payments of $147,806 through its stated maturity with the then remaining unpaid balance of approximately $26.1 million due upon maturity. The Home2 Suites Promissory Note is cross-collateralized by two of the Company’s hotel properties (Home2 Suites – Tukwila and Home2 Suites – Salt Lake City) Although the Company is current with respect to the payment of debt service on its nonrecourse Home2 Suites Promissory Note, it did not meet the required minimum debt service coverage ratio for the third and fourth quarters of 2020 because of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operating performance of these two hotels. As a result, the lender may elect to retain any excess cash flow from these two hotels until such time as a prescribed minimum debt service coverage ratio is achieved for two successive quarters. If the lender elects to retain any excess cash flow from these two hotels, the Company does not believe it would have a material effect on its liquidity or financial condition. Principal Mortgage Maturities The following table, based on the initial terms of the mortgage, sets forth their aggregate estimated contractual principal maturities, including balloon payments due at maturity, as of December 31, 2020: 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Thereafter Total Principal maturities $ 26,509,613 $ 38,414,814 $ - $ - $ - $ - $ 64,924,427 Less: Deferred financing costs (169,978 ) Total principal maturities, net $ 64,754,449 Pursuant to the Company’s debt agreements, $3.0 million and $2.3 million was held in restricted escrow accounts as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Such escrows are subject to release in accordance with the applicable debt agreement for the payment of real estate taxes, debt service payments, insurance and capital improvements, as required.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Notes Payable | 7 Notes Payable During April 2020, the Company, through various subsidiaries (each such entity, a “Borrower”), received aggregate funding of $1.5 million through loans (the “PPP Loans”) originated under the federal Paycheck Protection Program, which was established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The PPP Loans each have a term of five years and provide for an interest rate of 1.00%. The payment of principal and interest on the PPP loan is deferred until the day that the forgiven amount is remitted to the lender (approximately five months after the forgiveness application is submitted to the lender, unless the Borrower appeals a denial of forgiveness) or ten months after the end of the Borrower’s covered period, whichever is earlier. Pursuant to the terms of the CARES Act, the proceeds of the PPP Loans may be used for payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent or utility costs. The promissory note for each of the PPP Loans contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and breach of representations and warranties or of provisions of the relevant promissory note. Under the terms of the CARES Act, each Borrower can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of the PPP Loans. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. Although the Company intends for each Borrower to apply for loan forgiveness, no assurance can be given that any Borrower will ultimately obtain forgiveness under any relevant PPP Loan, in whole or in part. As of December 31, 2020, the PPP Loans had an outstanding balance of $1.5 million and are classified as Notes Payable on the consolidated balance sheets. Subsequently, during the first quarter of 2021, the Company’s hotels received an additional $1.9 million from PPP Loans. |

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] | |
Stockholder's Equity | 8. Stockholder’s Equity Preferred Stock The Company’s charter authorizes its board of directors to designate and issue one or more classes or series of preferred stock without approval of the stockholders of Common Shares. On July 11, 2014, the Company amended and restated its charter to authorize the issuance of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Prior to the issuance of shares of each class or series, the Company’s board of directors is required by Maryland law and by the Company’s charter to set, subject to the Company’s charter restrictions on ownership and transfer of stock, the terms, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of each class or series of preferred stock so issued, which may be more beneficial than the rights, preferences and privileges attributable to Common Shares. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no outstanding shares of preferred stock. Common Shares On July 11, 2014, the Company amended and restated its charter to authorize the issuance of 200,000,000 Common Shares. Under its charter, the Company cannot make some material changes to its business form or operations without the approval of stockholders holding at least a majority of the shares of our stock entitled to vote on the matter. These include (1) amendment of its charter, (2) its liquidation or dissolution, and (3) its merger, consolidation or the sale or other disposition of its assets. Share exchanges in which the Company is the acquirer, however, do not require stockholder approval. All of the common stock offered by the Company will be duly authorized, fully paid and nonassessable. Subject to the restrictions on ownership and transfer of stock contained in the Company’s charter and except as may otherwise be specified in the charter, the holders of Common Shares are entitled to one vote per Common Share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote, including the election of the Company’s directors. There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors. Therefore, the holders of a majority of outstanding Common Shares can elect the Company’s entire board of directors. Except as the Company’s charter may provide with respect to any series of preferred stock that the Company may issue in the future, the holders of Common Shares will possess exclusive voting power. Holders of the Company’s Common Shares are entitled to receive such distributions as authorized from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors and declared out of legally available funds, subject to any preferential rights of any preferred stock that the Company issues in the future. In any liquidation, each outstanding Common Share entitles its holder to share (based on the percentage of Common Shares held) in the assets that remain after the Company pays its liabilities and any preferential distributions owed to preferred stockholders. Holders of Common Shares do not have preemptive rights, which means that there is no automatic option to purchase any new Common Shares that the Company issues, nor do holders of Common Shares have any preference, conversion, exchange, sinking fund or redemption rights. Holders of Common Shares do not have appraisal rights unless the Board of Directors determines that appraisal rights apply, with respect to all or any classes or series of stock, to a particular transaction or all transactions occurring after the date of such determination in connection with which holders of such Common Shares would otherwise be entitled to exercise appraisal rights. Common Shares are nonassessable by the Company upon its receipt of the consideration for which the Board of Directors authorized its issuance. Distributions on Common Shares On June 19, 2019, the Board of Directors determined to suspend regular monthly distributions. Previously, distributions in an amount equal to a 6.0% annualized rate were declared on a monthly basis beginning on January 14, 2015 through June 30, 2019 and were paid on or about the 15th day following each month end. There were no distributions declared during the year ended December 31, 2020. Total distributions declared during the year ended December 31, 2019 were $4.0 million. Future distributions declared, if any, will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors based on their analysis of the Company’s performance over the previous periods and expectations of performance for future periods. The Board of Directors will consider various factors in its determination, including but not limited to, the sources and availability of capital, revenues and other sources of income, operating and interest expenses and the Company’s ability to refinance near-term debt as well as the IRS’s annual distribution requirement that REITs distribute no less than 90% of their taxable income. The Company cannot assure that any future distributions will be made or that it will maintain any particular level of distributions that it has previously established or may establish. Share Repurchase Program The Company’s share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”) may provide eligible stockholders with limited, interim liquidity by enabling them to sell Common Shares back to the Company, subject to restrictions and applicable law. A selling stockholder must be unaffiliated with the Company, and must have beneficially held the Common Shares for at least one year prior to offering the Common Shares for sale to the Company through the Share Repurchase Program. Subject to certain limitations, the Company will also redeem Common Shares upon the request of the estate, heir or beneficiary of a deceased stockholder. The price for all purchases under our Share Repurchase Program is 100% of the estimated net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock, which is $8.05 per share as of December 31, 2020. Redemption of shares, when requested, will be made on a quarterly basis subject to the Company’s Board of Director’s approval. Provided sufficient funds are available, the number of shares repurchased during the current calendar year will not exceed two percent of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year. Funding for the Share Repurchase Program will come exclusively from operating funds, if any, as the Board of Directors, at its sole discretion, may reserve for this purpose. For the period from January 1 through March 18, 2020, 80,436 shares of common stock were repurchased under our share repurchase program at an average price per share of $9.92 per share. During 2019, the Company redeemed 141,204 common shares at an average price per share of $9.77 per share. On March 19, 2020, the Board of Directors amended the share repurchase program to remove stockholder notice requirements and also approved the suspension of all redemptions effective immediately. |

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not reimburse the affiliates of the Advisor for their general overhead costs or, other than as set forth above, for the wages and salaries and other employee-related expenses of their employees. In addition, the Company pays the affiliates of the Advisor a separate fee for the one- time initial rent-up or leasing-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm’s-length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties as determined by a survey of brokers and agents in such area.

Fees Amount Liquidation Distributions to the Special Limited Partner Distributions from the Operating Partnership in connection with its liquidation initially will be made to the Company (which the Company will distribute to holders of Common Shares), until holders of Common Shares have received liquidation distributions from the Operating Partnership equal to their respective net investments plus a cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return of 6.0% on their respective net investments. Thereafter, the Special Limited Partner will be entitled to receive liquidation distributions from the Operating Partnership until it has received liquidation distributions from the Operating Partnership equal to its net investment plus cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return of 6.0% on its net investment. Thereafter, 85.0% of the aggregate amount of any additional liquidation distributions by the Operating Partnership will be payable to the Company (which the Company will distribute to holders of Common Shares), and the remaining 15.0% will be payable to the Special Limited Partner. With respect to holders of Common Shares, “net investment” means $10.00 per Common Share, less a pro rata share of any proceeds received from the sale, other disposition or refinancing of assets. With respect to the Special Limited Partner, “net investment” means the value of all contributions of cash or property the Special Limited Partner has made to the Operating Partnership in consideration for its subordinated participation interests, measured as of the respective times of contribution, less a pro rata share of any proceeds received from the sale, other disposition or refinancing of assets.

Due to related parties and other transactions In addition to certain agreements with the Sponsor (see Note 1), the Company has agreements with the Advisor to pay certain fees in exchange for services performed by the Advisor and/or its affiliated entities. Additionally, the Company’s ability to secure financing and its real estate operations are dependent upon its Advisor and its affiliates to perform such services as provided in these agreements. Amounts the Company owes to the Advisor and its affiliated entities are principally for asset management fees, and are classified as due to related parties on the consolidated balance sheets. Affiliates of the Company’s Advisor may also perform fee-based construction management services for both its development and redevelopment activities and tenant construction projects.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lightstone REIT III and the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries (over which Lightstone REIT III exercises financial and operating control). As of December 31, 2020, the Company had a 99% general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during a reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate and depreciable lives. Application of these assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. Investments in other real estate entities where the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not exercise financial and operating control, and is not considered to be the primary beneficiary are accounted for using the equity method. |
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As required by the Company’s lenders, restricted cash is held in escrow accounts for anticipated capital expenditures, real estate taxes, debt service payments and other reserves for certain of our consolidated properties. Capital reserves are typically utilized for non-operating expenses such as major capital expenditures. Alternatively, a lender may require its own formula for an escrow of capital reserves. As of December 31, 2019, restricted cash also included approximately $5.2 million resulting from the sale of a SpringHill Suites by Marriott hotel (the “SpringHill Suites – Green Bay”) located in Green Bay, Wisconsin (see Note 3). These funds were temporarily placed in escrow with a qualified intermediary to potentially facilitate a like-kind exchange transaction in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. However, the Company decided not to pursue a like-kind exchange transaction and the funds were subsequently released in May 2020. The following is a summary of the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash total as presented in our statements of cash flows for the periods presented: December 31, 2020 2019 Cash and cash equivalents $ 26,998,685 $ 6,102,573 Restricted cash 2,972,561 7,440,620 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 29,971,246 $ 13,543,193 |
Marketable Securities | Marketable Securities Marketable securities consist of equity and debt securities that are designated as available-for-sale. Marketable debt securities are recorded at fair value and unrealized holding gains or losses are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company’s marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value and unrealized holding gains and losses are recognized on the consolidated statements of operations. Realized gains or losses resulting from the sale of these securities are determined based on the specific identification of the securities sold. An impairment charge is recognized when the decline in the fair value of a debt security below the amortized cost basis is determined to be other-than-temporary. The Company considers various factors in determining whether to recognize an impairment charge, including the duration and severity of any decline in fair value below our amortized cost basis, any adverse changes in the financial condition of the issuers and our intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. |
Revenues | Revenues Revenues consist of amounts derived from hotel operations, including occupied hotel rooms and sales of food, beverage and other ancillary services and are presented on a disaggregated basis below. Revenues are recorded net of any sales or occupancy tax collected from our guests. Room revenue is generated through contracts with customers whereby the customers agree to pay a daily rate for right to use a hotel room. The Company’s contractual performance obligations are fulfilled at the end of the day that the customer is provided the room and revenue is recognized daily at the contract rate. Payment from the customer is secured at the end of the contract upon check-out by the customer from our hotels. The Company participates in frequent guest programs sponsored by the brand owners of our hotels whereby the brand owner allows guests to earn loyalty points during their hotel stay. The Company recognizes revenue at the amount earned that it will receive from the brand owner when a guest redeems their loyalty points by staying at one of the Company’s hotels. Revenue from food, beverage and other ancillary services is generated when a customer chooses to purchase goods or services separately from a hotel room and revenue is recognized when these goods or services are provided to the customer and the Company’s contractual performance obligations have been fulfilled. Some contracts for rooms, food, beverage or other services require an upfront deposit which is recorded as deferred revenues (or contract liabilities) and recognized once the performance obligations are satisfied. The contractual liabilities are not significant. The Company notes no significant judgments regarding the recognition of room, food and beverage or other revenues. For the Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 Revenues Room $ 13,646,285 $ 31,057,929 Food, beverage and other 528,403 1,397,853 Total revenues $ 14,174,688 $ 32,455,782 |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable The Company analyzes accounts receivable and historical bad debt levels, customer credit worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company’s reported net income or loss is directly affected by management’s estimate of the collectability of accounts receivable. |
Investments in Real Estate | Investments in Real Estate Accounting for Asset Acquisitions When the Company makes an investment in real estate assets, the cost of real estate assets acquired in an asset acquisition are allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, furniture and fixtures and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases, and the value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their relative fair values, at the date of acquisition, based on evaluation of information including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other relevant market data. Fees incurred related to asset acquisitions are capitalized as part of the cost of the investment. Accounting for Business Combinations Upon the acquisition of real estate operating properties that meet the definition of a business, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets and identified intangible assets and liabilities and certain liabilities such as assumed debt and contingent liabilities, at the date of acquisition, based on evaluation of information and estimates available at that date, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other relevant market data. Based on these estimates, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase and allocates the initial purchase price to the applicable assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests, if any. As final information regarding fair value of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests is received and estimates are refined, appropriate adjustments are made to the purchase price allocation. The allocations are finalized as soon as all the information necessary is available and in no case later than within twelve months from the acquisition date. Fees incurred related to the acquisition of real estate operating properties that meet the definition of a business are expensed as incurred within general and administrative costs within the consolidated statements of operations. Carrying Value of Assets The amounts to be capitalized as a result of periodic improvements and additions to real estate property, when applicable, and the periods over which the assets are depreciated or amortized, are determined based on the application of accounting standards that may require estimates as to fair value and the allocation of various costs to the individual assets. Differences in the amount attributed to the assets may be significant based upon the assumptions made in calculating these estimates. Impairment Evaluation The Company evaluates its investments in real estate assets for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the undiscounted projected cash flows are less than the carrying amount for a particular property. The Company evaluates the recoverability of its investments in real estate assets at the lowest identifiable level, the individual property level. No single indicator would necessarily result in the Company preparing an estimate to determine if an individual property’s future undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying value. The Company uses judgment to determine if the severity of any single indicator, or the fact there are a number of indicators of less severity that when combined, would result in an indication that a property requires an estimate of the undiscounted cash flows to determine if an impairment has occurred. Relevant facts and circumstances include, among others, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results and significant negative industry or economic trends. The estimated cash flows used for the impairment analysis are subjective and require the Company to use its judgment and the determination of estimated fair value are based on the Company’s plans for the respective assets and the Company’s views of market and economic conditions. The estimates consider matters such as future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of demand, competition, and recent sales data for comparable properties. An impairment loss is recognized only if the carrying amount of a property is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. |
Depreciation and Amortization | Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation expense is computed based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the applicable real estate asset. The Company generally uses estimated useful lives of up to thirty-nine years for buildings and improvements and five to ten years for furniture and fixtures. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. |
Investments in Unconsolidated Entities | Investments in Unconsolidated Entities The Company evaluates all investments in other entities for consolidation. The Company considers its percentage interest in the joint venture, evaluation of control and whether a variable interest entity exists when determining whether or not the investment qualifies for consolidation or if it should be accounted for as an unconsolidated investment under the equity method of accounting. If an investment qualifies for the equity method of accounting, the Company’s investment is recorded initially at cost, and subsequently adjusted for equity in net income or loss and cash contributions and distributions. The net income or loss of an unconsolidated investment is allocated to its investors in accordance with the provisions of the operating agreement of the entity. The allocation provisions in these agreements may differ from the ownership interest held by each investor. Differences, if any, between the carrying amount of the Company’s investment in the respective joint venture and our share of the underlying equity of such unconsolidated entity are amortized over the respective lives of the underlying assets as applicable. These items are reported as a single line item in the statements of operations as income or loss from investments in unconsolidated affiliated real estate entities. The Company reviews investments for impairment in value whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such investment may not be recoverable. An investment is impaired only if management’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. The ultimate realization of our investment in partially owned entities is dependent on a number of factors including the performance of that entity and market conditions. If the Company determines that a decline in the value of a partially owned entity is other than temporary, it will record an impairment charge. |
Deferred Costs | Deferred Costs The Company capitalizes initial direct costs associated with financing activities. The costs are capitalized upon the execution of the loan, presented in the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the corresponding loan and amortized over the initial term of the corresponding loan. Amortization of deferred loan costs will begin in the period during which the loan is originated using the effective interest method over the term of the loan. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company elected to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2015. If the Company remains qualified as a REIT, it generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its net taxable income that it distributes to its stockholders. To maintain its REIT qualification, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it annually distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (which does not equal net income, as calculated in accordance with GAAP), determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding any net capital gain. If the Company fails to remain qualified for taxation as a REIT in any subsequent year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, its income for that year will be taxed at regular corporate rates, and it may be precluded from qualifying for treatment as a REIT for the four-year period following its failure to qualify as a REIT. Such an event could materially adversely affect the Company’s net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. The Company engages in certain activities through taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”), including when it acquires a hotel it usually establishes a TRS and enters into an operating lease agreement for the hotel. As such, the Company may be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes and franchise taxes from these activities. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no material uncertain income tax positions. Additionally, even if the Company continues to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it may still be subject to some U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and property and to U.S. federal income taxes and excise taxes on our undistributed income, if any. |
Concentration of Risk | Concentration of Risk The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed U.S. federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash. |
Basic and Diluted Net Earnings per Common Share | Basic and Diluted Net Earnings per Common Share Net earnings per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. |
Financial Instruments | Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and other assets, accounts payable and other accrued expenses, due to/from related parties, distributions payable and notes payable approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The estimated fair value of our mortgages payable is as follows: As of As of Carrying Amount Estimated Fair Value Carrying Amount Estimated Fair Value Mortgages payable $ 64,924,427 $ 64,823,777 $ 65,983,719 $ 65,974,411 The fair value of our mortgages payable was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by market interest rates. |
New Accounting Pronouncements | New Accounting Pronouncements The Company has reviewed and determined that other recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows, or do not apply to its current operations. |
