</div></div>I think in most cases they can be tagged as normal motels, most of them<br>
also offer day-rates or even week-rates in addition to hour-rates, most of<br>
them have a few or more "Adult" tv-channels, but so do many hotels. The<br>
only difference is that some of them have a 18year limit for guests (no<br>
minores under 18 can stay). The kind of rates a motel (or hotel for that<br>
matter) should be possible to tag, I do not think the entertainment package<br>
is of interest to the map, age limits might be tagged as some sort of<br>
restriction. I also know that there are "normal" hotels that have some<br>
restrictions, such as no infants, unmarried couples cannot share room, no<br>
alcoholic beverage, etc.<br>
<br>
IMO, a brazilian love hotel should be tagged motel, with additional tags<br>
if needed.<br>
<br>
Me and my wife use such love hotels at times to get a night from the kids,<br>
so there are several usages.<br>
<br>
When travelling in Brazil, usually Pousada is a good and cheap place to<br>
stay, taking the role of motels in Europe, though most pousadas don't<br>
accept visitors after a certain hour (without prior<br>
notification/reservation) while the motels accepts visitors at any hour.<br>
