This is the mod I've been referring to. It can be either autonomous or you roll it yourself with the 'block' that the mod has:

Hmm... working hotel/inn/lodge in neighborhood that is NOT vacation hood?

ROS Scenario = Random Occurring Scenario Scenario... I see.
Thanks for the head's up. I never would've figured that one out on my own! haha

SIMLOGICAL has some hacked objects (HOTEL PODIUM being the main one) that can help you make a hotel, but they dont work 100% like regular vacation hotel. Plus it was updated up to FT, not Ultimate Collection. But I think it may be updated for AL/MG. Maybe edited, modificated to work as regular hotel podium (where you can save the game if you are on the lot)

Yeah, but mostly I just want to get the other sim on the community lot so they can woohoo in the photo booth and I don't really care what they do afterwards, and also, when they're done, I usually want my romance sim to go around chatting up other sims on the lot to find new romancing targets, and I don't need the other sim following them around. I don't really do dining out, it takes way too much time.

(Supposedly, according to some legacy I read long ago, you could at one point satisfy the public woohoo want by buying your own personal photo booth for your home lot, but at least for the current version of the game that doesn't seem to work, and only the ones on community lots satisfy the want. I didn't try clothing booths, because they don't work with ACR, so I never use them for this purpose.)

It works in a main hood, and in a business hood. (I think it may even work in a Uni hood but have not tried that myself).

Sims will not go on vacation, but can go there, book in and sleep over. They will remember normal community lot things, eg. met Sim, won a game, etc.

I have had hotels in my main hood since BV came out.

Sims can bring their kids to school, but they still take the bus home. It would be nice if there was an option to go pick them up as well.

Just use the sim blender. Summon the sim to the lot and do them then clear them off once done!

I mean, there's already a regular game function that does exactly what I want there. You can also go to a community lot and invite someone else to come to it with a cell phone.

Decorative buyable pond that is not certain career reward. The only buyable pond I found was Sims 4 CC. I know there's Bali pond, but how about more natural-looking one you can put onto your garden?

Something I've wanted for a while is a coffee vending machine. You know, the kind you would find at the library, in uni hallways, or at a service station. Maybe I should try to make one myself at this point

It just occurs to me that the trash is not picked up in The Sims 2. The trashcan outside is like a bottomless one.

There's probably a complex pneumatic system to transport trash directly to the correct facilities that's connected to each trashcan through the ground.

OMG, even Sim Sample buys them dinner first, and you know what a terrible date he is!


Me too, I have a hotel called The Quinoa (it's seedy) in Launa D, and sims stay there all the time. Not quite the same as on vacation though because, if you stay the night, you go back home and it's still lunchtime!


I always fancied that they were wormholes (transporting the garbage to a different place in spacetime, just as the sims in 'Sims 1 Makin' Magic' get transported to Magic Town via the Hole in the Ground). It all probably ends up somewhere in our universe, karma for all the torture we inflict on the sims in their universe by removing pool ladders. Next time you see a pile of trash in the street, you'll know it's Skip Broke's ancestors getting their own back on the game developers.

Speaking of that "Hole in the Ground" I'd love to have a hack that did that. Alas, all we can do is imagine that. Teleportation is still a dream even in the game. Except if you teleport small distances. Long ones, forget it!

As for hotels, I've usually had the seedy "No Tell Motel" in use that sees a lot of action and pixels will sleep there when they're tired of playing with someone else's spouse.

C&K has a decorative one:

I'm thinking you could move the pedestrian portal to there using the Portal Revealer.

I wonder if you could just add an extra pedestrian portal to the lot on top of the hole? Hmm, must try it...
