My mother used to be a security guard at this place and the common consensus of the now former staff is that the place got shut down due to a mix of money issues and shitty business practices. One person on management was found out to be stealing credit card numbers, there was a lot of in-staff fighting going on, another manager was constantly just not around, and then there was the whole issue of the place being renamed in preparation for being handed off to a new owner and then the deal never went through, which you touched upon in the video. The ballrooms and that main large room were often used for small conventions, meetings, and receptions. Part of the reason for the hotel's bad rep is due to location. The other hotel that is a stone throw away from this one was known as being a drug and pimp hotel. You would often have people from that hotel coming to this one and causing trouble. I stayed at this hotel several times myself and found the place nice and clean, but the poor reviews are def a reflection of the staff problems. FunFact; that massive room in the middle used to be an indoor pool area, but it was filled in/removed a long while ago. Also, the place is haunted. My mom and several staff had eerie experiences there.

Some of the more well-known sites I've seen urban explorer channels visit have actually run into other urban explorers. As for getting in, it's often luck or finding a whole in the lock-up, such as a broken window, fence, hole in the boards, things like that. In many cases abandoned sites don't do a great job of maintaining the secured areas, or if you're lucky you'll catch them in between repairs. And I recall one video where one group almost got trapped when security patched up the holes they used to get in.

onemanghetto You DO realize there's a MASSIVE number of people about to be evicted due to job loss right now, right? And those people are just normal people who pay taxes, pay rent, have a car payment, clean their house, don't do drugs, etc. I, personally, am fine with a tax increase to help some of those people. Then again, I'm not a heartless know-it-all like some people clearly are.

@@HomesteadHopefulTara well let me say you are in a minority most people won't even vote for a school levy that would cost 7$ a month. Because the " government " will just " waste" all that $. And those people are not always wrong. Case in point: education has been defunded heavily over the years but any mention of defunding police or military is met with outrage. Yes we need programs for the homeless but let's get to the root of the problem. Addiction. Mental health. Education. The very things that are not likely to get funded. Thank the Reagan administration for that. Gov't funding for those programs were gutted way back in the 80s. In my comment I was typifying the average person's response to a homeless shelter in their neighborhood, which is why shelters are usually in some bombed out downtown ghetto location. "Not in my backyard " so it goes..

I have read this same thing about housing the homeless so many times in urban explorer comments. If it was that simple there would be no homeless. Some of these properties have liens on them, some have been deemed uninhabitable for various reasons, some are earmarked for future use, slated for eventual demolition, etc. In a perfect world some of these places could be repurposed for new housing. THIS ALSO TAKES $. The financial situation worldwide is about to get really crazy. Foreclosures, businesses folding, evictions, job losses. Some kinda solution will have to come up and soon. Governments world wide will have to jump in at some point. At least one would hope. Donations and private sector $ ain't gonna be there, and yes there is going to be a housing crisis like never seen before. Wish ourselves luck!

It’s sad to see a property like this but in all honesty, after being in the hotel industry for 13-years and going through ownership change after ownership change, a lot of the reason why hotels start to “age” is because the owners of the property don’t bother investing in the building itself and the management (Red Lion Hotels) can only do so much with the financial resources it had/has. Once hotels start failing their BSA (Brand Standard Audits) it doesn’t take long before they get deflagged. Often times, a management company will make small improvements just to pass their BSA but then go right back to their old ways. Then you have the issue of the annual market analysis. Is the hotel viable and competitive enough? What are other hotels of the same rates doing in the area. So while it is easy to blame the hotel staff it really comes down to ownership and if ownership doesn’t care then the employees don’t care and once that happens, there is no recovery.
@andrewbrendan157911 ай бұрын
Thanks for this information. It really adds to our understanding of why hotels go out of business. I wonder how much similarity there is to the management companies that run apartment complexes. I've lived in the same small apartment complex for 13 years and have been under five owners and/or managment companies and the place has visibily deteriorated. I"m guessing that minimum work is being done to keep the place up to code and for a while the laundry room was probably below safety codes. I live in a college town and read how one rental property owner is also a business teacher at the university and even said he does the minimum required by law for his properties.

This is crazy to see. I lived here for 3 months back in 2017, at that time it was still the Radisson. There were many other people/families living in the hotel but outside that occupancy was pretty low. It had been run down and sold several times, you can still see the ghost of the "Crowne Plaza" sign on the outside. There are a lot of nicer hotels nearby, as well as cheaper. Not many activities outside a 2 week stretch in the summer so not surprising it closed.

The weird thing about this is that I looked into it, and the restaurant actually closed January 2019 despite the hotel not closing till August of the same year. Makes you wonder what kind of hotel would knowingly still operate knowing there was rotten food/meat near by. The pool also stopped being used by May. Hotel workers kept telling guests that the restaurant and pool were just merely under construction but construction never took place. Eventually close to the end they told guests the facilities were closed indefinitely
