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!)

So he went inside there to take on what he found.
But he never escaped them, for who can escape what he desires?
