Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser

The secure sidewalk entrance/exit gate that you could just walk around pretty much sums this place up.

Like, just make it a normal hotel. This cannot but that difficult if a decision (yet it is!!!)

It’s so sad that they had to price it at a level where 90% of the people could not afford it. I really wanted to experience this, but I just could not pay the high price.

It is too late. The "hotel" has no pool, no fitness room, very small rooms with no windows, a cafeteria (not a food court), and the only sightlines are to the unfinished back of Galaxies Edge. There was no "Plan B" here; there is no way this could function as a regular hotel.

A Motel 6 might be considered on par, except maybe those fancy star-wars-orange blankets might be a little more snug.

They screwed themselves here.

They won't even keep the light on for you!*

*Cheers to anyone and everyone who read that in Tom Bodett's voice!

In addition to these very valid -- and funny! -- points, if they took a tax write-off on the loss, they can't just re-use it. Sort of like WB's Coyote v Acme movie that some swear was actually pretty funny. Once they took the loss on their taxes, they can never use the movie to make money again--not in theaters, not on streaming, not selling DVDs out of the back of a car.

Which certainly means Disney bean-counters ran the numbers, and realized even a show-less hotel wouldn't make enough money to offset what the resort cost. Probably the first thing they did.
