Hey @Greg Strunak, like others have said, this has been going on for a while now but it isn't just the hotel lobby.

Not a hotel.

Hotels and motels do it all the time.

I'm wondering if some one can help with an explanation about why a Hotel has many rooms with tax lien on auction? 

Our buy box specifically focuses on vacation destination accommodations - including boutique motel/hotel, campgrounds, treehouses, cabins, etc.   

In Franklinton there are plenty of large projects going on that will bring massive growth to the west side of Columbus, such as the Peninsula Development, which is a multiphase project that will erect a 24 story apartment complex featuring a grocery store, a multi use office space building, and a new hotel featuring a two-story venue. 

Lots of investors simply want to go "bold" on all of their projects by using sharp color contrasts, busy tiles that catch your attention, and modern lighting that looks like it belongs in a hotel.

Jaime, I'm actually sitting in a hotel in Lehi, near Salt Lake, right now.

This alone really turned me off, we stay in hotels now and I have gotten similar feed back from other friends and family members.

I think your demographic might be more hotel people rather than families.I would also still go with smart locks on every door.
