ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Hotelship

Okay kiddo, let me explain what a hotelship is! Imagine you are going on a trip to a new place and you need to stay somewhere overnight. What do you usually do? Yes, you book a hotel room.

Now, imagine the hotel you booked is not on land, but it's actually a ship that floats on water. That's a hotelship! It's like a hotel but it's on a boat instead of a building.

Hotelships are usually used for special events like big sport games or music festivals where lots of people are coming from out of town and need somewhere to stay. If there isn't enough space on land for all the people to stay in regular hotels, the hotelships come to the rescue by providing more rooms on the water.

At a hotelship, you get a cabin instead of a regular hotel room. It's like a little apartment that's usually smaller than a regular hotel room, but still has everything you need like a bed, a bathroom, and sometimes even a little living room. You can also enjoy all the amenities of the ship, like restaurants, swimming pools, and even a gym.

So, there you have it! A hotelship is a hotel, but it's on a boat that floats on water. It's a unique way to stay overnight when you're away from home, and it's especially handy when there's a big event in town and regular hotels are all booked up.
