Alicia, you will be pleased to hear that the EBOM rating system is designed to ensure that buildings like yours are not penalized (or held to a higher standard) for their great achievements in the past. Rather than basing your rating on 'change' or rate of improvement, EBOM is based on building performance relative to peers. Your EBOM score will reflect that performance, even if it hasn't changed one bit during the 'performance period'. Your hotel chain sounds like they are in great shape in that regard.
Hope this helps,
Dan
