Well it is not in Mecca for starters. Can't have a Hajj without Mecca!

I would dispute the assertion that the Hyatt is no longer needed. Dearborn is home to a great tourist attraction and the number of hotel rooms in the City has decreased since it was built. Goners include the Holiday Inn and Quality Inns on Michigan in West Dearborn and the Presidential in East Dearborn as well as numerous mom and pop motels. Many of the other ones that are left are not of the same quality.

More rooms are an indicator of money coming into the region. This money will not only be spent in Greenfield Village, but at other attractions such as the DIA. Dollars for tourists employ people throughout the area who would not be working otherwise.
