yes, but if you think with your heart, when you go to sleep and know that you chose the hotel property over the unhoused, your heart will have a wound that will take eons to heal because whether you like it or not, not even a thread of those luxurious linen in your hotel rooms will you be able take with you when you die, or maybe death may even come sooner and yoiu'll die with a wounded heart but oh well, that's how most property owners think - business is business - I say no more

but as for me, it's really a brilliant idea

It just looks ridiculous because people were so used to using each other, not helping each other but had this helping each other practice been the culture for a long time, then the opposite, which is using and abusing each other would have been the eyebrow-raising idea

I don't have a problem if a hotel wants to do this unprovoked. There is nothing wrong with legitimate charity. What I DO have a problem with would be the government stepping in and forcing the hotels to do it.

You also have to look at other cities that did something similar and see how that turned out. Not to mention the type of people that tend to be homeless in these large cities. Are the hotel staff going to be properly able to deal with those type of people? No they aren't. What kind of compensation are the hotels going to get for doing this? That's assuming they are going to get any in the first place. Look at how bad some of the camps are. The hotels are going to end up just as bad, potentially even worse. How are the hotels supposed to recover if they do get to that state? I doubt they would even be able to. In the end it's extremely high risk vs little to no reward.

Hotels have emergency fundings and I'm sure they're already busy planning their moves, whether the proposal is passed into law, or opt for a graceful exit, or think of ways to save the brand

But they will have to execute or risk going to jail as per proposed law, so once implemented, a look-see might be in the offing, excited to see how it goes

One never gets their feet wet without getting into the water first
