Saranas Motel

The Saranas Motel is a location in the city in which Heavy Rain takes place. It is a two-story complex that appears to be much smaller than and not quite as nice as the Cross Road Motel.
If Ethan Mars survives, evades arrest, and isn't in a relationship with Madison Paige, but fails to find the warehouse and Shaun Mars dies, he books a room at the Saranas Motel. The grief of losing his son overwhelms Ethan, and he commits suicide in his motel room.
If Norman Jayden survives but fails to find the warehouse and Shaun dies, he books a room at the Saranas Motel and starts abusing Triptocaine to cope with the stress of the investigation and the immense guilt he feels at the boy's death. This habit soon takes its toll on Jayden, and he dies on the floor of his motel room.

==Trivia==
* The Saranas Motel's name is never mentioned in the game. It can be found in the game's texture files, along with images of the outside of the building.
* The word "sarana" can mean either "shelter" or "pivotal point." This could refer to how the motel serves as a place of refuge for Ethan and Jayden, and how it marks a turning point for them both which results in their deaths.
* Ethan's and Jayden's rooms at the Saranas Motel are much cheaper and more run-down than their old motel and hotel rooms, reflecting how their lives have deteriorated since they failed to save Shaun.
*The exterior and street images of the motel are also used as skybox textures. This is visible in free camera mode.
*Using the free camera mode, it is possible to see that Ethan's room is on the lower level of the motel.
*The bathroom connected to Ethan's motel room is partially modeled.
