Inquiry

The building that we are applying for LEED-EB certification is an upscale hotel. The annual occupancy percentage of guestrooms is in the high 80s. For this credit, can hotels assume guestrooms as being "regularly occupied spaces" as specified in the requirements? Does this apply to daylight as well, considering our hotel has several rooms and suites that guests on business use for meetings and other "critical tasks?"
