I think in most cases they can be tagged as normal motels, most of them
also offer day-rates or even week-rates in addition to hour-rates, most of
them have a few or more "Adult" tv-channels, but so do many hotels. The
only difference is that some of them have a 18year limit for guests (no
minores under 18 can stay). The kind of rates a motel (or hotel for that
matter) should be possible to tag, I do not think the entertainment package
is of interest to the map, age limits might be tagged as some sort of
restriction. I also know that there are "normal" hotels that have some
restrictions, such as no infants, unmarried couples cannot share room, no
alcoholic beverage, etc.

IMO, a  brazilian love hotel should be tagged motel, with additional tags
if needed.

Me and my wife use such love hotels at times to get a night from the kids,
so there are several usages.

When travelling in Brazil, usually Pousada is a good and cheap place to
stay, taking the role of motels in Europe, though most pousadas don't
accept visitors after a certain hour (without prior
notification/reservation) while the motels accepts visitors at any hour.

Sorry I wasn't clear.  I understand the love motel isn't a brothel.  My 
point is that in places that disapprove (officially or not) some business 
look a lot like other businesses (and may even offer "normal" services 
to some clients).

Should there be a love motel tag?  IMHO, yes.

Would I use the tag to describe a motel around here?  No.  One probably 
could rent a room for the night, alone, to sleep (but the clerk might 
try to direct the guest to some place more appropriate).

So... after all that, I probably haven't helped the original poster at 
all.  (But I am enjoying the thread!)

You seem to think about an "inofficial brothel", as prostitution is 
illegal in some parts of nevada.

IIRC the brazilian "love hotels" are often used by "regular couples" (so 
probably no "business" involved). Because the couple still lives at 
their parents, not married, or whatever. IIRC, this kind of "motel" is 
also known in japan.


Yes, I guess it makes sense to tag them special, as a normal traveller 
probably wouldn't want to stay there.

As we already have amenity=brothel, why not use amenity=love_hotel for this?

Around here I would not use a separate tag.  No-Tell Motels must show a 
little discretion.  Hourly rate is a pretty clear hint as to what people 
are doing there (not sleeping) but it still looks like a motel on the 
outside.

Places that are more open could very well have businesses that deserve a 
special tag.  For example, I wouldn't tag any business in Clark County 
as a brothel, the brothels look like other businesses and the 
prostitutes will go somewhere else when the location draws too much 
attention from law enforcement.  In other Nevada counties, were 
prostitution is legal, a brothel tag makes sense.  These are clearly 
labeled, well established businesses.

Just my point of view from a rather atypical city in the US desert south 
west.

That's the point. Shouldn't we use another tag to map these kind of hotels?
I imagine a search tool for each type of hotels, without having to guess

Always on short time basis (1-4h) and always with the "love" factor...
perhaps the portuguese Wikipedia article translated to english [2] would

[OSM-talk] Tagging Love Hotels ("Brazilian Motels")

2009-07-29 Thread Arlindo Pereira
Hi there,

here in Brazil, and in most of Latin America as I can see on Wikipedia [1],
so-called "motels" are short-time hotels or "love hotels", differing from
the original concept in english (hotel for drivers). Do you think that we
should tag them differently (such as amenity=lovehotel or whatever,
tourism=lovehotel doesn't seems to fit) or keep it tourism=motel?

It's a thin line, because some love hotels ("motels" here) call themselves
"hotels" but everyone (the locals) knows that they are, in fact, love
hotels.
