This challenge requires preparation. Enter the hotel, but ignore the red switch. Enter the left bathroom and use the left-most toilet seat to enter the room above. Uncover the Boo in the picture and go through it to the room with the spinning blinds. Fold the blinds, and triplejump+hover into the small square hole in the ceiling (practice this jump until you're comfortable with it. Now spray the book-shelf to enter the adjacent room, and spray the poster to tear it. Jump on top of one of the spinnable tiles in this room to fall down into the pineapple room below. Break a few of the crates there before you exit through the door.

Now comes the fun part. Smack the red button, pick up the coin next to you (1), and head into the right-hand toilet. Pick up the coin there (2), and get back out into the main room. You must now reach the second level. The easy way is to take the stairs; the hard way is to spin-wall-kick off the middle column in the lobby, but this is only barely faster (and very error-prone). Once on the second level, pick up the coin (3) and head to the third level (take the stairs, or try your luck with "the hard way"). Pick up the coin there (4) and enter the door leading to the swimming pool room. The time should be around 4'42 if you have races well so far. Grab the coin in the pool (5) and come back to the previous room. Fall through the spinnable tile to land in the room with the Boo picture. Since you've uncovered Boo, jump through the picture. Pick up the coin near the rotating blinds (6), and triple jump into the little hole in the ceiling. Go through the bookshelf and behind the torn posted for coin (7), and finally, fall through the spinnable tile to the pineapple room for the final coin (8).

There are several speed tricks used in this challenge that are hard to explain, but a video will explain them nicely. Unfortunately, this challenge is very error prone, and a single dive out-of-alignment will cause Mario to smack his head and lose several seconds. For this reason, many of the top times set "play it safe" in a few locations, and how much this challenge can be improved by is uncertain.
