  • without doxxing myself: I can say with certainty that they are paying hotels to house migrants to keep the hotel market from collapsing. The city is overflowing with vacant apartments, commercial buildings have floors and floors of open floor plans with bathrooms that could be converted, but the landlords don’t care and are NIMBY. A hotel is typically leasing a building instead of owning, so they will happily take a government contract to house migrants if it means they are booking up rooms.

    It’s also preferable for the city as a hotel is full of tourists instead of voters, has staff to check in, has private bathrooms, is full of cameras, and again there are like thousands upon thousands of vacancies. If you have the money, you can probably get a room night of anytime or anywhere in the city.

    My job has me visiting lots of different types of buildings and the landlord class makes me sick.
