The 24-room Sea Shell Motel in Virginia Beach is losing money. When Anthony arrives, he finds an older owner who doesn't want to change his ways and refuses to give refunds for poor rooms and lousy customer service. The owner's daughter and son-in-law have a plan to take over, but the other daughter has her own ideas.

The Capital Plaza Hotel in Frankfort, KY, has finances that are out of control, a maintenance director that is more interested in a microbrewery than basic maintenance, and water pans in the ceiling.

Anthony is called in to help the Grant Hills Motel in Galena, IL. However, he soon discovers that the motel's main issue isn't the poorly maintained rooms but the feuding sisters who run the place.
