You might be shocked by the amount of toilet paper some people use for their "functions" and some of the fancier stuff does not disintegrate as easily.Personally, I cannot remember a single place I've ever stayed in my life - STR, hotel, whatever - that I can remember liking or disliking the toilet paper.

I'm actively working through this process somewhat now so I can roll funds into a bigger boutique hotel project.

The equity pay down in many RE classes (residential, storage, hotel/motel, office space, industrial, etc) ispaidby the tenant.- there are ways to never pay tax on gains (1031, owe until death, etc)- cost segregation can in effect have RE acquired at no cost- sweat equity can produce additional return.  

It is similar to you renting a hotel room and deciding to stay.  

Cabins are a different beast, I have 10 at another campground I built- Broad River Campground located in Mooresboro, NC (Has Cabins/Domes/RV Sites, Tent Sites)Cabins are sexy to talk about for sure, but you are now entering the hotel business my friend.

I do, however, recommend getting a hotel.  

Downtown Kansas City, Missouri has experienced $9+ billion in investment since 2001, including a new convention center and hotel, a state-of-the-art sports arena, a performing arts center, a new streetcar, and an eight-block restaurant and entertainment district (read more here).

Quote from @Marc Shin: Hotels learned how to make it work, so we can, too. 

However, as must as we strive for a hotel like experience we are not a hotel and we make that clear in listing and our welcome letter. 

The vibe of Biddeford has gone from burning garbage in a decimated downtown, to boutique hotel and trendy restaurants in very few years.The apartments in town were built for mill workers a long time ago.
