Creepy ABANDONED Days Inn Hotel 

Other channels... Ahem *Cough* Dan Bell *Cough*

True.

I had someone comment on one of my videos saying that the video that they watched was not click baity. If you'd like to see whether that's true or not, you can.

cough 6:40

Don't forget The Proper People.

Better them than us.

Saki McGee what kind of problems did this hotel have?

Dos anybody know way this was as abandoned?

@Eugene Cam I think asbestos was made illeagel to use in building construction in the early 1970s when it was found out how harmful it was.

@Eugene Cam hmmm, interesting.

Nate Snoke Dang. Glad you didn’t die.

I stayed there while on a roadtrip with some friends in late 2014 and it definitely wasn't much better. It was the sketchiest hotel I have ever stayed at and we didn't even stay the night! In the probably three hours we were there, we saw squatters having a bonfire party in front of the burned down part of the building facing the road (which was lined with tens of disgusting mattress), heard multiple gunshots, and found more bedbugs than I'd care to see in a lifetime. We opted to just drive through the night to Atlanta even though we had just come from a concert. Didn't even walk to the front desk to check out early, just walked straight to the car and got the hell out of there.

Sounds like some of the flea bag motels around south Atlanta. The hotels and motels near the ATL Airport ain't too bad, but venture to the boonies on the outskirts and...sheesh.

Wow. If the area was really that bad then why would anyone in their right mind think it would be an ideal spot to put up a motel?

Most of birmingham is a hole really...not much redeeming about that place at all.

@Krok Krok Spotted the 12 year old trend follower

lol

I can’t Believe that there is an abandoned hole tell like I wanna know where the a abandoned hole tell is so that I can see it please

Lol

@@softykani2900 whats a hole tell?

BSF SAN SENPAIIIII? ONMAE WA NAN DESU KA????

650k subscribers hmmm

@@cart4092 well I mean, Jake isn't talked about that much, and so many youtubers now are already above 1 million

Yeah. His editing surpasses some major RU-vidrs, and his narrating skills are amazing. Most people are sadly not interested in the content Jake makes, and they like gaming RU-vidrs like PewDiePie. Jake deserves a LOT of subscribers for the time and effort put into these videos.

You can say the same about Dans channel? They should have over 1 million at least.

Exactly

I was thinking the same thing. Alabama does get some really nasty severe weather though, so I’m thinking it’s possible that a bad storm or two came through and caused some damage. That, combined with the multiple fires, could be why it’s gotten this way in only 4 years. Plus, it sounds like the building was already in a decaying state by the early 2010s while it was still operating.

So is all that damage natural and not from people causing it?

0:45 Ongoing maintenance of flat, membrane roofs is critical. Mechanically induced air movement and filtration of closed structures is important. If not maintained, cleaned, and occupied, buildings die. Nothing lasts in this world.

You know Dan got that “I watch kiddie porn all day” look about him

Creep Factor level up!

@@Docstantinople lol wtf

Vaporwave

Oh wow that's pretty good I thought the music was still playing from the hotel.. I was thinking in my head that would be kind of weird and it would be scary at night hearing it while being there.

LMAO! 💯

I think it's 'cause no one gives a shit what happens in that toilet.

Is that the guy that looks like a bell?

I was surprised too as Dan moved exclusively to Patreon.

if that's him, he looks terrible.

@Julie Pitzen Fuck off Dan Bell is awesome

days inn is absolute bullshit, has been for years, went there once because our new home didn't have heat or plumbing in for some reason, (we had sued the owner months later after moving out) anyways, no heat in the rooms, rude staff, it was out of date, in general it was shit, i'd rather have a nice ni9ght in a super 8 than ever walk into a shitty days inn ever again!

AstronomyToday sounds like the things condensation drain was blocked or not draining right...

shame, my local one is actually really good and has good reviews

you get what you pay for, at least sign up for the rewards program

@@ATARI800XLfan little quality control among the chain

“...that is, until you get to the front entrance”...lol

Y’all clearly haven’t seen scraping, they’ll take EVERYTHING, the pipes in the walls the door frames the roofs themselves. This is just looting

Maybe they are broken by racoons? cuz vandalism are only done by human

I think he was noting that there's no graffiti anywhere. I agree. That place has been pretty heavily vandalized.

What you're seeing is the sodden ceiling tiles from the suspended ceiling all over the floor. I don't see much vandalism at all. But whatever, you just wanted to have something to say.

You mean the city should actually do something useful with tax dollars? Nah, they should just continue to pocket as much money as the local officials possible can, like 90% of politicians do.

LOL

blipco5 what was the reason it was left?

Are you sure it closed?

David McCoul ...🤔 Hard to tell.

I think the broken windows probably had something to do with it. Most hotel interiors aren't designed to be exposed to outdoor weather.

Don't forget..... the building also caught on FIRE. So that's extra WATER damage, from fire department's water hoses.

@@invisiblerevolution Yeah, the ceiling looks like it's damaged from water, it would never look like this after 4 years in normal conditions.

Zimmit's FunHouse Adventure how are you any better by your comment? The actual evil one is you.

Zimmit's FunHouse Adventure you sound like a giant asshole

F1Barbie 2009 U may be right, Transients may have do this.

And again on January 1 2020. I think the building is trying to send us a message www.wbrc.com/2020/01/01/breaking-crews-working-massive-fire-old-bessemer-hotel/

Cooking up meth

sleeeeeep.....sleeeeeeep you feel sleeeeepy your eyelids are getting heavy..... sleeeeeep...... mwahahahaha...

😂😂😂

Yyyaaaasssss lol XOXO

DJ Deadbeat I’ve wondered how they get into these places, the last time I tried I was told by a patrol cop to leave bc it was private property

Okay. Your comment just inspired 0 people to do so CONGRATS

@@deaf2819 Not sure what that is supposed to mean, as a former paramedic, and a current health professional, I was commenting on their lack of preparedness. I guess you don't understand the effects of asbestos and black mold on the human body after prolonged exposure? I was not making a judgement about content (obviously I watch this and similar channels) just stating amazement that so few wear protection.

@Wario DS I feel you. I still hold out for the day when people can have a thoughtful, respectful, intelligent, conversation... It's the masochist in me.

@Wario DS you mean you don't have a corral full of unicorns?

@Wario DS I bet the codfish were wearing respirators :-)

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one concerned about the mold/health risks.

In many of their exploration videos, they do have masks, but I don't think they intended to explore this that day, so they might not have had all of their exploration equipment with them. I do agree with all of your points though!

Don't forget asbestos.

@@alessm2206 I feel strange getting a response on youtube that's not "Go die you stupid asshat!" It's odd sharing an opinion on RU-vid that's not responded with unwarranted hate... Glad to see others care about them!

They’re doing asbestos they can 😂🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

pigletpaige769 Yes, totally agree! I live here in Cincy also. Do you think they’d be able to get into the Terrace??

It has a historic perspective. I think I remember that commercial from my childhood

RC Doodles no hurricane here in Bham

musicbeat1234 5 a lot of times paintings are bolted to the walls for safety reasons.

The roof was probably in disrepair for years before it closed. But I bet it was still kept together with tar and basic cheap repairs. So when the cheapest repairs stopped, it fell apart, fast. Unfortunately ceilings are absolute killers. It's why dying malls have buckets everywhere- no bank will loan the funds to fix or redo it, and without that fix, boom. Falls right apart, especially if it's a humid area. Edit: after seeing the room at 11:25, I really have to guess the place was just doing surface fixes but mold and mildew were rampant for years, which is why it pretty much peeled from the studs. (That and the fire, maybe? Though there doesnt seem to be smoke damage.) A roof should be replaced every 20 years but I'd bet my money it was never replaced in the 40+ it operated.

Yeah exactly. I was thinking "well it looks pretty vandalized to me.."

It gets really humid in the Deep South, especially during the summer. My guess is once the property was vacated and the air conditioning unit no longer regulated the internal humidity conditions, things quickly deteriorated. The roof tiles and walls are filled with insulation material that gets soggy and heavy under such conditions. Over time, the strength of fibers erode away. Wood also often rots quickly in such humidity. It’s sad to see a building crumble like this.

ikrrrr, like hello?!! homeless ppl here we have free space here!!

I was waiting for a small village of them to come out like zombies and instead of mumbles of, _"Brains....WE WANT YOUR BRAINS!"_ these would mumble, _"Wallets... WE WANT YOUR WALLETS!"_

Nah, they wouldn't want to live in that much mold. Tbh a tent in a patch of woods is where you find a lot of homeless people down south.

Every abandoned house hotel or anything else they go to I always look for a hobo

Exactly , .. The other guys should take notice ( they probably already have ) Thumbs Up .

Lol I’m at work with no sound on- I thought it was an actual utube commercial smh. Thinking what are the odds.....

It is Dan. He shared in his FB post pics of this place a few weeks ago.

Over 1700 in the US.

mikeyz mama I have stayed at a few. for the budget travelers.

When there is no money and the owners are already at a loss, they don’t care. Eventually it is up to the city/state to demolish and they don’t have money to do so. Beyond that, it was a hotel in major decline before it was abandoned, nothing inside was worth anything.

it would be an awesome airsoft venue.

Why are you on every RU-vid comment section???

Lucky Lucian I know right!!! My theory is that since there is no internet in Cuba when he discovered it he just can’t stop using it. I bet he has 100 tabs on internet explorer open.

Its Friday Friday gotta get down on Friday.

TGIF! I want some hot wings, and riblets.

Erich Himes that’s probs what they mean ahah untouched by government bodies

Erich Himes untouched by people

Jinwoah no it’s untouched by people

Hotels are franchises. Just like a McDonald’s. An individual or ownership group owns it. Not the corporation.

@@PD-we8vf the race question is what we need

Well it’s Birmingham, AL too, I grew up there, many abandoned buildings. Improvement but still.

Days Inn is part of the Wyndham family of hotels. One trend that's been happening is a lot of the branded hotel chains are doing is telling the owners of these franchised properties is that they are no longer allowed to use the name A lot of them are losing their license to use a branded hotel's name. The reason is because of exterior corridors. The branded hotels over the past few years are going exclusively with interior corridors and owners of exterior corridor properties are being screwed by companies like Choice and Wyndham.

I'm surprised no one tried to buy the property. with a decent loan thay could probably get it up and running again. beautiful property this must have been hit with a ton of unsafe conditions. while under investigation.

Glad you liked it!

@@BrightSunFilms LOVED it. Such a huge fan of your work.

Good idea but I don’t think Jake takes requests for videos. At least, I don’t think he does.

Didn't they do Animaniacs?

@@rethablair6902, it was made by Amblin Entertainment - the main company, which is still intact. In cooperation with Warner Bros. Animation, ofc.

>Balto >Cult hit Is it cult in US also those days? Because it failed miserably in cinemas there back in 1995, but here in Russia we were huge fans of Balto.

Hilarious! One day.

Joshua Ayres Dan hasn’t had the best experiences with homeless/vagrants

@@RUSTYCHEVYTRUCK MTV Cribs: Abandoned.

If business was truly that bad, I would not be surprised if some of the rooms had already began their transformation into this mess, and were simply not being sold because there was no need for them.

I know right!

You can tell that it has though with all the broken glass and furniture thrown everywhere

Really? You think dressers, chairs, and beds flip over and filing cabinets and drawers get emptied with just the passage of time? With the exception of a few rooms (the public side of the lobby, and the lounge), it has obviously been screwed with if not ransacked. It just hasn't been graffitied.

azn1011 That was Days Inn in general lol

Justin Y. Yeah. Also, hey again! If you reply to me you are a god (like you already are)!

Amy-Renee King and per capita the murder rate is not far behind Compton

@corey Babcock there isn't any good stuff. It's all been contaminated with mold. It probably stinks. 🤭😷

There are ,how they didn't run into anyone ,I don't know ...its a bad side of town...its not Birmingham ,its Bessemer which is very close to shittown ...when my cousin was doing drugs ,he talked about staying there ..

David You’d better hurry. There won’t be anything left. This place was badly built if it really fell apart so much in four years. Imagine if one of these still in business goes on fire in the ceiling space?
