this is embarassing, but can someone clue the i/4 that isn't hotels

starchaser

It is an i/4/4.
Def: A South American freshwater dolphin (Inia Boliviensis). It is ten or twelve feet long, and has a hairy snout.

If that doesn't help, then think of a country and starts with an i(5 letters) and take one of the letters out to make it 4 letters.
