New Yorkers Deal with A Hotel full of Homeless People

I was rolling on the floor laughing when I heard about this one.

Apparently the chill of the fall in 2014 was so severe that the City of New York ran out of capacity in its conventional shelters for the homeless, and as an emergency measure they reserved 100 rooms at a hotel in Jamaica, Queens, ostensibly for a "government group"

In fact, the people that the city of New York intended to occupy the rooms were a large number of homeless people, and while the hotel staff did not report any disruptions in normal hotel activity over the course of their 10 day stay, the management also confirmed that there would be no more allowances for this kind of thing.

In order to preserve their professional image they will be attempting to prevent this from happening again.
