THE PLT STATED THE LANDING APCH WAS TOO FAST AND THE ACFT BOUNCED ON TOUCHDOWN. THE PLT STABILIZED THE ACFT AND ATTEMPTED ANOTHER TOUCHDOWN, HOWEVER, THE ACFT BOUNCED AGAIN. HAVING USED OVER HALF THE RWY BY THIS TIME, THE PLT ELECTED TO ABORT THE LANDING BY ADDING FULL POWER AND RETRACTING THE FLAPS. THE ACFT FLEW OFF THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RWY AND THE RIGHT WING CONTACTED A POST. IT THEN TRAVELED ACROSS A 4-LANE HWY WHERE IT CONTACTED A CONCRETE POST IN A HOTEL PARKING LOT AND CAME TO REST INVERTED.
