Spanish term or phrase: hotel mixto
Has anyone translated the term "hotel mixto"? It seems to be a term used only in Cuba. This is for a document about different sustainable energy projects that a business has taken on, and it includes under a list of consultancies, "19 hoteles mixtos y de administración de la 'Cadena Cubanacán.'"

Thank you in advance!
