This former Clarion Hotel has been transformed into a versatile, income-producing property featuring 198 guest rooms and eight suites. Over 206 extended-stay beds are consistently occupied by long-term weekly tenants, providing dependable, year-round cash flow.

The current owner has completed over $1 million in capital improvements over the past three years, including a 90% roof renovation, LED lighting upgrades, exterior stucco and landscaping improvements, new staircases, fiber internet enhancements, and PTAC heating/cooling systems. The rooms feature fully equipped kitchenettes, new beds and flooring, in-room televisions, and guest laundry.

The property boasts the largest hotel event space in the area, meeting a significant demand in the market for group functions, business conferences, and social events.

Grand Idaho Extended Stay is a turnkey investment with strong fundamentals and enormous potential. The current owner has done heavy lifting, transforming the asset into a clean, efficient operation. The hotel is now an easy lift for a new investor who is ready to step in and leverage the site’s scale, location, and approvals. Whether operated as a revitalized extended-stay/hotel hybrid, repositioned as multifamily housing, or developed into a destination event venue, 1399 Bench Road offers substantial upside in a dynamic and fast-growing market.

ABOUT IDAHO SOUTH AREA

The Idaho South Area, anchored by cities like Pocatello and Blackfoot and stretching toward Idaho Falls and the Utah border, benefits from its strategic location along Interstates 15 and 86, two major corridors facilitating regional travel between Salt Lake City and the northern Rocky Mountain states. The area provides excellent accessibility for long-haul drivers, commercial transport, and tourists visiting Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks.

In addition, the Idaho South Area serves as a regional hub for education, healthcare, and logistics. Idaho State University, with over 11,000 students, and Portneuf Medical Center, a leading healthcare provider in southeastern Idaho, drive consistent hotel demand from visiting families, medical staff, and academic visitors. The Union Pacific Railroad’s Pocatello yard is a longstanding economic engine, supporting transient workforce lodging needs.

The area’s proximity to major outdoor recreation bolsters leisure demand. The region offers access to Lava Hot Springs, Pebble Creek Ski Area, American Falls Reservoir, and Craters of the Moon National Monument. These attractions and routes leading to Yellowstone and Jackson Hole make the Idaho South Area a critical stopover for park-bound visitors during the peak summer season.

Recurring events, including Idaho State’s athletic calendar, regional youth sports tournaments, and community festivals, continue to support event-driven demand. In addition, the Eastern Idaho State Fair in Blackfoot (over 250,000 attendees), the Pocatello Marathon, the Portneuf Valley Farmers Market, and the Fire & Ice Winter Festival in Lava Hot Springs contribute to long-term visitation across the Idaho South Area.
