How would you like to spend your vacation in this hotel? What no swimming pool, no hot tub? I wonder if they had maid service. I wonder how many bathrooms it had or did it? This hotel still stands but not used as a hotel but people do live in it. Looks like the tree in front has done well. We met an elderly man a few months back who told us he came to Charlotte as a young single man to work in the oil field. He didn't have a job and didn't know anyone so he lived under a bridge until he found work. Then he lived in this hotel. He said while on his back on the bed he would watch the daddy long-legs spiders on the ceiling.

Travel lodging for the frugal.
I'd LOVE to spend the night there! =)
Is it a haunted hotel? ;)Sheila
Yep. I'm pretty sure that place is full of ghosts.
LOL Paula I think I will pass on spending a Holiday there ~ Mainly because I cannot stand Daddy Longlegs ~ (Certainly does look Haunted) Ally x
the spiders are
probably still running
the place...
yikes!
Yeah I can imagine folks living there and enjoying it during a different time and era..
Oh, at least the folks had live entertainment in the room!!!
Is there a Grandmama long legs??? Ha!
I like this entry!
It's just so sad to see buildings go down hill. I'm sure when it was first built it was quite the place. There must have been a lot of spiders that the old man you talked with about it ~ that was his remembrance.
Well yes Jack didn't anyone ever teach you the facts of life? Where there is a daddy longlegs there has to be a mama longlegs.
Oh it looks so intruiging! I would love to go through and see what it was once like. I bet it was cool back in its hayday.
How sad to talk to an old man in such a building.
love from the netherlands,

Looks like the Bates Motel
I bet that is not the only thing running around
in the old Hotel.

Paula I agree with you give the flowers while
a person is living. She enjoyed them while she
was alive. That is wonderful about crafting your poems. Life is to be enjoyed. I am trying before I get to old and can't get out of my chair. Your idea about the flowers makes sense to me. Thanks for stopping by. I always
enjoy your blogs. They are so interesting.

I'd plan a family reunion there, since most of the family I'd want to re-union with is dead anyway..
