Crate Wall Of China

Stacks Of Room

The first recyclable hotel constructed from pre-built, container-like crates imported from China, stacked on each other and bolted together, is being built by a British hotel chain. Travelodge said the steel modules could be dismantled if necessary at the end of the 120-room hotel's life and moved elsewhere - and that the model could ultimately be used to build temporary hotels for sporting events or festivals.

FOOTNOTE: Tyra, this could be America’s next top module.

So long as there's a nice bed and shower and some buttered toast for breakfast, I'm good with it.
