Most people don’t need a nursing home until they have trouble dressing, bathing, cooking, shopping, etc. Many have trouble with seeing. Some have mental issues like dementia or extreme short term memory loss.
If you can live in a hotel, you don’t need a nursing home. It is when you NEED the assistance a nursing home is supposed to provide, that you can’t get around a hotel yourself.
Plan is a complete fail. He is wasting his money on a hotel when he can just live at home as long as he is mobile and can take care of himself.
He would have the cost, upkeep, taxes of home to care for. He has a better idea and will save a lot of money.
