et snusket hotel


Explanation:
This is a guess, but judging from the context you provide, it's the kind of hotel where you can rent a room for a few hours at a time - one that wouldn't appeal to the ordinary tourist. In which case this suggestion should cover the meaning. Of course it wo't work if for instance SRO is used to advertise the hotel... In any case, 'brothel' would be too strong a term (English-Danish, perhaps you were thinking of 'hostel')?

Notes to answerer
Asker: Ja, det var et godt bud, men ikke i denne sammenhæng. Det endte med, at jeg oversatte det med "Et hotel til mindre bemidlede.....et midlertidigt opholdssted/hotel" Men tak for hjælpen allesammen. Jeg er ked af jeg fik sat gang i en så heftig diskussion. =0} Nina
