Hotel Hell, I mean Help!

[t2igger817]

Can anyone give good suggestions on what it takes to build a good working hotel. Every time I try to build a community lot, no one comes to it. I put in all the right things, doors, cooks, the major domo or whatever you call him, bathrooms...but no one shows up. So I know I'm doing something wrong. To me, they look great on the outside. But obviously, the Sims don't think so.  Any ideas, pointers? I'd really appreciate them


Thanks

When you choose the lot and before entering,you have 2 options:residential and community.Do you choose Community?

If you built the hotel on a community lot (and I think it would work for a residential lot as well), you need to use the cheat:

changeLotZoning hotel (typed just like that)

then exit the lot. When you re-enter the unoccupied lot the hotel objects should be available. You need to use the hotel doors for you Sims to be able to register.
