Bon Voyage time issue. <SOLVED>
Kralore:
Can someone explain what goes through the minds of EA developers when they do stuff like this...
After reading akatonbo's post about what the prima guide said, I decided to put a hotel in the main hood. I thought the prima guide info might explain why the travel options were the way they were. Well guess what, hotels in the main hood or non-BV sub hoods are pretty much useless. They don't show up as destinations when booking a vacation (no big deal). You visit the hotel like you would any other comm lot. When you get there you can reserve a room and then check in. But you can't leave the lot. The new "Walk to..." is disabled. If you "Call Taxi" on the phone you are told "If you leave you will be checked out of the hotel and will have to pay your bill". Once you check in to a hotel in the main hood, you can't stay there and visit other comm lots. You are stuck at the hotel until you check out.
Edit: Considering my recent experience with Bon Voyage, it's possible i'm missing something completly obvious about how hotels should work in the main hood. So please correct me if i'm wrong. LOL

Hotels never were really supposed to work in the main hood. You CAN have them there, but they aren't supposed to be there.
The only real good it does is it gives you a community lot where your Sims can sleep. So if you're out to meet people or on a date or something, you don't have to cheat to bring the needs back up. *shrug* Walking does make it better, but I hate popping from lot to lot. For my community lots I always try to cram everything I might need onto the same lot. So the next time I build one, it will also have a hotel. :D

Having a hotel in the main hood could be somewhere for your attached romance sims to take their latest conquest. They could book in as Mr & Mrs Smith for a few hours for a little extra-marital fun.

The pre-built BV Inn that came with Bon Voyage has a 1 simoleon rating. It's 1000$ a day to stay. Sounds like a very expensive date/fling to me LOL

It depends on what's in the room. Plus, the Maxoids rated it, not the game. My $$$$$$ hotel has $800 rooms. It also has $2300 rooms. :D Still an expensive fling, but it will lend some realism to the game.
