These people didn't just "commingle" hotels alongside other buildings; they implanted hotels into apartment buildings. That is definitely not a norm in NYC.

I'm with you that if they were doing that in violation of their lease, then it's wrong.

It had to be in violation of their lease; it's unlawful to do that in NYC.
