Just call some places to stay and ask. You may even do better in a bed and breakfast- ask about late checkout. It may not seem "fair", but they are renting out a room overnight, and if you are leaving, it needs to be cleaned for the next occupant.
If they cannot simply go down the row it becomes very inefficient and wastes time the cleaning staff could be actually cleaning, instead of backtracking to a different hallway. You pay for that, because it is an additional service. So the usual block of time is after noon to before noon, or thereabouts.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
