I didn't say 'commercial' I said 'hotels'.

There's nary a difference between a hotel of a certain type, and residences. There are people living there.

'Parking lots' are massively different than any other kinds of space.

As long as the hotel fits the local aesthetic, i.e. only 5 stories high if the other buildings are, 1 story high if the others are ... then there's nothing wrong with them at all.

What about hotels with restaurants in them? Where shall the regulation start and stop?
'Where shall the regulation start and stop?"

Those decisions already have to be made. 'Regulations' already have to start and stop somewhere.

There are restaurants all up and down my street and people seem to get along fine.

My point is, you seem to be advocating regulation-free business development, while simultaneously proposing new regulations so businesses don't do what you don't like.
