Dare to stay here? Chinese engineers build 30-storey hotel in 15 days

Would you spend a night in a 30-storey hotel built by a Chinese construction firm in just 15 days? This time-lapse video shows the building under construction, and was created to allay fears that the hotel was unsafe.

The hotel is located in Hunan Province, near Dongting Lake. It was built over Christmas 2011 and finished before New Year's Eve, 2012.

"Somehow I get the feeling there won't be long queues to the opening of this new hotel in Hunan.

"Maybe it's the fact that it was designed and built by Chinese engineers, with their spotty track record.

"Maybe it's the fact that the workers tasked with throwing the whole thing together did so under immense time pressure.

"Maybe it's the fact that the whole video and project looks like a publicity stunt, meant to make the firm look good.

"What's your take, everyone? Would you be game to spend the night here?"
