Thats my thinking. Could even be safer than a typical hotel because of mitigation measures in place - e.g. extra fire wardens, more practise with fire drills, etc. And rather than a little disruption to business, this kind of thing could leave a lasting impression on people. When you do a search for it, you'll find out about this cladding even in a few years time. Jobs could be at risk.
So if they've been told there is no immediate danger, but they'd get shafted by the bad publicity.. I don't think its incredibly immoral.
