Very few details about the damage sustained. Like somebody smashed the mirror or burned the mattress or what?

  Show me before and after damage billing pics of every room or it didn't happen. This walks and talks like an enrichment opportunity for the welfare of rich landlords trying to monetize disaster capitalism.

    I have many experience of working in hotels, and I have no problem believing the extent of the damages. Filtering your clientele is key if you want to maintain your property. A single hoarder / drug addict / mentally ill person / pets can cause tens of thousands in damage in a single night. And surely they are proportionally more represented in the homeless population. There is no cleaning certain smells and fixing certain damages to finished and furniture, you have to remove it and install new. I have had multiple years of experience where the cost to fix a single animal urinating or defecating in a room wiped out all the pet fees and more collected in a year.

    This isn't unusual at all. It costs around $10k/month to house a street case in a hotel because you need to renovate a lot. And that's just an average, there are plenty of much more extreme hard cases to balance out the costs of more benign ones. Tiny homes are seen as a better solution because they are relatively more disposable than hotel rooms.
