While the hotel was being built there were 320 construction workers employed. $45 million was spent on construction. The remainder of the money was budgeted for road and utility infrastructure, areas for maintenance and a warehouse.

Revenue from the new hotel will go to fund important programs for the Santa Ana Pueblo. Also, it will be a new source of employment for the tribe. All of this is a way to add to the economic sustainability for the tribe.

In an effort to retain employees, the new hotel will be higher wages then other nearby hotels. Staff will receive $2 to $3 more an hour than what is offered elsewhere. They will also have healthcare benefits and a free meal during each shift.
