The Lotus Hotel

We run The Lotus Hotel over in Amreli. It’s not a huge town, so we’re a fairly well-known spot for people visiting the area. We’ve been at this for several years now, and the routine is pretty much set. Every morning starts with checking the guest list and making sure the common areas are tidy. It’s a lot of walking up and down stairs and checking on things. We don't have a fancy lobby with marble floors or anything like that. It’s a simple building that gets the job done. The rooms are basic, and we try our best to keep them clean and comfortable for whoever stays with us. We get a lot of workers and people traveling on business who just need a place to sleep for the night. Sometimes things break, like a fan or a tap, and we have to scramble to find someone to fix it. That’s just part of managing a hotel. My brother helps me out with the paperwork because there’s always some form or another to fill out. The street outside can get a bit noisy with the local traffic, especially in the mornings. We don’t have a big fancy restaurant, just a place where you can get some rest. We've seen a lot of guests come and go, and some of them have become friends over the years. We don't try to be something we’re not. We just keep the doors open and do our best to stay organized.
