I want to know the answer to the following question:
In the United States, what are operators of lodgings sometimes called?
All the background I'm provided with is that "The original services of an inn are now also available at other establishments, such as hotels, lodges, and motels, which focus more on lodging customers than on other services, although they usually provide meals; pubs, which are primarily alcohol-serving establishments; and restaurants and taverns, which serve food and drink.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
