I recently explored an abandoned hotel with everything left behind. It shut down in May of 2019 due to a basement flood. The owner of the property never fixed the problem & abandoned it completely.
in September of 2019 the Winnebago County Health Department condemned the property noting unsafe condition. Liens have been placed on the property because the owners reportedly owe thousands of dollars in taxes and other fees.
This was not my first time here. In 2020 I stumbled on this place with most of the glass in tact, rooms untouched, alcohol left behind, and so much more. Now the vandalism and mold is so bad I don't see any hope of this place ever reopening.
I wish I could show you what it looked like in 2020. Unfortunately, I was not taking videos back then and the property remained sealed up until recently. I was actually caught by the police at the end of my explore. Please do not go and cause more damage to the property. You will get charged with trespassing.
Here is a video from another explorer right after the hotel was closed in January of 2020 - • Exploring an abandoned...
The city has been fighting to demolish the place but legal battles keep it locked. Does the owner know his property looks this bad?

DISCLAIMER: Exploring abandoned and decaying places is very dangerous and can lead to injury or even legal consequences if you are not properly prepared. Get permission from the land owner before exploring places like these and be extra cautious when exploring alone. Wear the proper exploring gear and always let someone know where you are.
The code of urbex (urban exploration) is to leave the location just as you found it. Don't steal anything, vandalize, or spray paint. Take only pictures and leave only footprints.
