Last fall, I went to a business meeting in Houston, Texas. The meetings were located at the Hotel ZaZa. This is the most inappropriate location for a business function ever. As you walk into the hotel, immediately on your right is the bell station. Behind the bell staff are a bunch of pictures of women and men in various stages of undress. This sets the tone.
As you walk farther in, you see a sort of fantasy exhibit that has a woman in a cage hanging over some water. Yes, you heard me, I said a woman in a cage. Well, technically, it's a mannequin in a cage, but I think you understand my point.
If you look to your left from the point of the display, there is a neon sign that says "Peep Show." I never went down that hallway. Too scary. After you walk past the poor woman in a cage, then there is a lobby area with some interesting chairs:
The one on the left is blurry, I know. I was freaked out that the management might ask me why I was taking photos of their decor for some reason. I guess I was nervous because the whole situation was so surreal. The left one is a naked female torso with some sort of animal head, maybe a deer. The one on the right is a female torso, partially dressed this time, with a cat head. FREAKY. The rest of the hotel had this theme. There were pictures of all kinds of men and women all over the walls in various stages of dress and undress.
Can you imagine trying to have a serious technical conversation with someone while staring at some boobs? Let's just say it was awkward.
So, go to the Hotel ZaZa in Houston if you are on a romantic getaway, or maybe for your bachelor party. However, I would avoid it for business meetings, unless, say, you are in the adult entertainment industry.
