Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]  
Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures Disclosure [Text Block] Unconsolidated Real Estate Joint VenturesAs of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had a 65% investment interest in two unconsolidated real estate joint ventures related to two experiential lodging properties located in St. Petersburg Beach, Florida. The Company's partner, Gencom Acquisition, LLC and its affiliates, own the remaining 35% interest in the joint ventures. There are two separate joint ventures, one that holds the investment in the real estate of the experiential lodging properties and the other that holds lodging operations, which are facilitated by a management agreement with an eligible independent contractor. The Company's investment in the operating entity is held in a taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS). The Company accounts for its investment in these joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. As
of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had equity investments of $25.9 million and $27.4 million, respectively, in these joint ventures.

The joint venture that holds the real property has a secured mortgage loan of $85.0 million at December 31, 2021, that is due April 1, 2022. The note can be extended for two additional one year periods upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. Additionally, the Company has guaranteed the completion of the renovations in the amount of approximately $34.8 million, with $2.1 million remaining to fund at December 31, 2021. The mortgage loan bears interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of 6.00% or LIBOR plus 3.75%. Interest is payable monthly beginning on May 1, 2019 until the stated maturity date of April 1, 2022, which can be extended to April 1, 2023. The joint venture has an interest rate cap agreement to limit the variable portion of the interest rate (LIBOR) on this note to 3.0% from March 28, 2019 to April 1, 2023. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, on May 28, 2020, the joint venture was granted a three-month interest deferral, which is required to be paid on the maturity date of the loan and is not considered a troubled debt restructuring.

The Company recognized losses of $4.1 million, $4.0 million and $140 thousand during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and received no distributions during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 related to the equity investment in these joint ventures.

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company's investments in these joint ventures were considered to be variable interests and the underlying entities are VIEs. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIEs as the Company does not individually have the power to direct the activities that are most significant to the joint ventures and accordingly these investments are not consolidated. The Company's maximum exposure to loss at December 31, 2021, is its investment in the joint ventures of $25.9 million as well as the Company's guarantee of the estimated costs to complete renovations of approximately $2.1 million.

The Company has a 95% interest in these joint ventures and accounts for its investment under the equity method of accounting, as control over major decisions is shared. The Company's partner, TJO Warrens, LLC and its affiliates, owns the remaining 5% interest in the joint ventures. There are two separate joint ventures, one that holds the investment in the real estate of the experiential lodging property and the other that holds lodging operations, which are facilitated by a management agreement. The Company's investment in the operating entity is held in a TRS.
