The graphics of the game have received mixed feedback; while some players find them aesthetically pleasing, others consider them somewhat dated and note a glitch affecting visibility at lower settings. Overall, there is a desire for improved graphics and more creative features in future updates.
“I enjoyed what I saw; there is a glitch where if you don't have all graphics settings set to high, light is not visible, but I enjoyed this game. I can't wait to see what new features you add to it.”
“Please do not make this game such that you pass this level and get the next big hotel. Make it open world, buy out other hotel chains, dominate the market, etc. Creativity and improved graphics would enhance the experience; however, the game is aesthetically pleasing.”

Gameplay reviews highlight a mix of experiences; while some players appreciate the enjoyable mechanics and promising graphics for an early access title, others express frustration with clunky controls that can lead to unintended actions, such as guests leaving without checking in. Overall, the gameplay shows potential but requires refinement.
“I like the mechanics.”
“For an early stage, the graphics are looking quite good, the gameplay mechanics are not bad at all, and the overall experience, for being in very early access, is very enjoyable.”
“I was also annoyed by the clunky mechanics in this game. For example, if you are at the computer in the game to let a guest check in, clicking somewhere in the schedule causes the guest to instantly and unintentionally leave the hotel without checking in.”
“The gameplay feels unpolished and frustrating, with numerous bugs that disrupt the experience.”
“I found the controls to be unresponsive at times, making it difficult to execute actions smoothly.”
