I found this interesting article from the <a href=\"http:\/\/articles.latimes.com\/1991-01-06\/travel\/tr-10505_1_hotel-renovation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LA Times<\/a>, which basically says; 3-6 years for a refurbishment of the furniture and fixtures; 12 years for a basic renovation; and 50 years for a massive renovation. Of course, to show off their latest upgrades they have to have great photography and that&#8217;s where I come in. In this case, the Holiday Inn and Suites in Santa Maria is undergoing a large renovation that started with the pool area. The rest of the renovation is soon to be completed.<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both;text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/hism-4613-Edit-2-3.jpg\" style=\"clear: left;float: left;margin-bottom: 1em;margin-right: 1em\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Hotel Pool Photography\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/hism-4613-Edit-2-3.jpg\" title=\"Hotel Pool Renovation\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both;text-align: center\"><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was recently on a pre-production walk through of a hotel currently under renovation and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[8,9,22,67,69,177,178,179],"class_list":["post-453","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-studio-news","tag-holidayinnpool","tag-hotelpool","tag-architecture","tag-california-architectural-photographer","tag-california-building-photographer","tag-hotel-and-resort-photographer","tag-hotel-photographer","tag-hotel-renovation"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/453","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=453"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/453\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=453"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=453"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studio101west.com\/portrait-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=453"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
