CURRENT HOTELS NEAR THE SITE 5
THE MASTERPLAN OF THE AREA REQUIRES A HOTEL TO BE PLACED ON THE SITE. DUE TO THE LARGE AMOUNT OF HOTELS THAT ARE ALREADY IN PLACE JUST NORTH OF THE PROPOSED SITE, A HOSTEL WOULD BE SOMETHING DIFFERENT FOR PEOPLE TO ENJOY. THE NEWLY DESIGNED BUILDING WILL ENCOMPASS BOTH A HOTEL AND A HOSTEL WHICH WILL GIVE THE VISITORS AN OPTION OF HOW THEY WOULD LIKE TO ENJOY THEIR EXPERIENCE AND ATMOSPHERE IN GRAND RAPIDS.
HOTEL VS. HOSTEL -
HOTELS PROVIDE PRIVATE SPACES FOR PEOPLE BY GIVING EVERYONE THEIR OWN ROOM.
-
HOSTELS HAVE A DORM ENVIRONMENT WHERE STRANGERS WILL STAY IN THE SAME ROOM.
-
HOSTELS ENCOURAGE INTERACTION BETWEEN THEIR GUESTS AND IT CREATES A SOCIAL ATMOSPHERE AND EXPERIENCE.
-
HOTELS ARE MORE LUXORIOUS AND COST MORE WHEREAS HOSTELS WERE MEANT FOR YOUNG TRAVELERS WHO DON’T WANT TO SPEND A LOT ON A PLACE TO SLEEP
