This is the first I've heard of this hotel. Absolutely appalling.

Edit to add this from what I found on Wikipedia, bolding mine...


It is proposed that the SpaceX Starship could be used to shuttle space tourists to the Voyager Station, which would accommodate 280 guests and 112 crew members. The cost of a trip to the station has not been officially published, but some estimates are that it would be approximately US$5 million, and would require the passengers to undergo safety and physical training before boarding the shuttle for a 3+1⁄2 day trip to the space station.[3] The cost of the space station has been estimated to be in the "tens of billions".
