I don't know. I think it would look really cool and contemporary. Its something new and it is sure to draw attention to itself, which means money! Personally, I would prefer an older style, but that's just me.

I think this hotel sounds really cool. I like that it's less traditional and that they incorporate new forms of art like graffiti, light art, and video art. It makes staying at hotel more of an interesting art experience than just somewhere to sleep at night.

This sounds very new and interesting. I think having graffiti murals around a hotel would definitely draw attentions to people and visitors. However, I do agree with Melanie with that this sounds kind of contemporary and I don't know if it can last for a long period of time.
