HPT has less than 30% debt/equity. Even if Marriot broke leases, which is nigh impossible, they have the properties to lease, or now operate, with their own management co.
I believe people do not understand HPT. They are classified a Hotel Reit like HOT or HMT but their structure is different and more conservative. HMT for instance has 3.24/1 debt equity. I think it(HPT) has been undervalued for a long time. Although it's dividend growth will probably be slow, 10%+ yld is pretty good and IMO safe.
