(12-30-19) This was the last day this hotel was open for business. We all know and love the different elevators in this hotel: The weird Dover high hydraulic, the classic Dover tractions, and the wheelchair lift. As of the date posted above, these elevators are no longer accessible. Enjoy a ride on all of the elevators at this hotel.

I worked at that hotel from 8/23/2012 to 12/31/2019 (the last day of operation). I do miss that hotel and the employees I worked with there. I would still be working there now if the place was still there. Sadly now ,it does not exist anymore. New owners decided to close for good and the majority of the hotel was demolished. The only part of the hotel that was not torn down was both the towers that was converted into apartments along with the rest of the property. I will always cherish the times I worked there. It was a good place and lots of good memories. ❤

I wonder why they closed it. It was a pretty nice hotel. My job interview with the railroad took place here in 2007 and some of my best friends stayed there in the early 2010s. Good memories.

@@DieselDucy yes Sir I worked worked in maintenance there ,worked on those same elevators along with the entire property. It was a nice hotel ,and I along with the other employees that worked there was devastated when they closed the doors for good. The place had a lot of potential , it's just sad that the new owners decided to go a different direction.
