What players say
Recommended 👍 Came for the relaxing hotel management. Stayed because a guest complained there wasn't enough ambience while standing in the room I accidentally demolished. Spent hours saying, "I'll just renovate one more room," and suddenly it's 3 AM. Whoever designed the gameplay loop clearly renovated my free time into unpaid overtime. 10/10. My hotel still has no fire exits, but the lobby looks fantastic.
Did I enjoy playing this game? Mostly, yes. It's exactly the type of game I like to unwind to with a podcast in the background. I liked the variety of stuff, the amount of rooms I can decorate (and redecorate), the freedom I had within the quests. I did 100% it... Would I recommend it? No. The game is buggy, tedious at times and sadly, is now abandoned... :(
