Motel with two GBP: one is connected to a Hotel Chain, one is not. How to proceed with one profile.

[Motel-Coach]

I've just started consulting for a motel that has two GBPs;

• One has ~16 reviews and a ~3.8 rating; it is not affiliated with the Choice Hotels chain.
• The second has ~133 reviews and a ~3.3 rating; it is connected to the Choice Hotels chain.
• Both profiles are listed at the same location
• Termination is in under 30 days.
• I'd prefer to not hold onto the bigger profile; 3.3/133 reviews will take the property a long time to get back on track above 4/5.

The motel is disconnecting from Choice Hotels, and I'm trying to plan out the best strategy for the property. Once the termination of the agreement starts, we will have full control of the GBP affiliated with the Choice brand; we will just rename it. My proposed plan;

Change the phone number and location for the listing affiliated with Choice, and then mark it as permanently closed.
Please focus solely on the independent listing with the 3.8 review score and only 16 reviews.

I would love your advice and potential guidance on the pitfalls of this plan.

Thank you very much for the help.
