Although you may expect to have problems when you stay at a hotel, you usually have an idea of what those problems will be. A bad mattress, poor breakfast, or loud neighbors. However, you do not expect a fire to ruin your stay. This is what happened at this Bismarck hotel when a case of arson left behind a sooty, smoky room. 

Staying at a hotel is supposed a relaxing experience. Whether you are on a trip to relax or for work, the last thing you expect to have is a fire within the building. Thankfully, nobody was harmed, and the fire was contained to the one room. 

This was one of the first jobs we used our new 3D Matterport™ camera to document the damage and create a 3D model. Having a 3D model will allow us to have the most accurate documentation of the job site and easy communication between our staff, the hotel managers, and their insurance providers. This will allow us to have quicker and better information  and ensure the property gets cleaned faster, allowing the hotel to reopen that room for guests again.
