Abstract

Hollinswood Associates, a joint venture partnership, has developed and operated a Marriott Hotel in Tysons Corner, Virginia. The partnership has been very successful in the past but it is now facing a significant cash flow deficit. Designed to examine how a partnership evolves to deal with changing circumstances. Also exposes students to both the hotel industry and hotel development. The complex operating environment of the hotel industry provides a natural setting in which to explore partnership conflicts.
