Its site EUI of 73.5 kBtu/ft² is about 12% above the average of 65.6 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 40 mean?
ENERGY STAR scores run from 1 to 100 and are computed by the EPA's Portfolio Manager as a percentile against similar buildings nationwide, adjusted for climate, size and use: a score of 40 means the building performs better than about 40% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 40 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 35 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. In California, 65% of scored buildings are at 75 or above.
Site energy-use intensity (EUI) is the energy a building uses on site in a year divided by its floor area, in thousand Btu per square foot — lower is more efficient. Best Western Surestay's 73.5 kBtu/ft² across 39,799 sq ft works out to about 2.9 billion Btu (857 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. The disclosure also reports 390,737 kWh of electricity and 15,753 therms of natural gas for the year.
