What's the worst hotel you've ever seen? And why is it the worst?

[Archae]

My family and I went to see this place about 35 - some years ago.

It was called "The Gobbler," (honest!) and finally it was used for practice burning by the local fire department, and the rest torn down.

But it looks like it was designed by a rare team-up of Austin Powers and Dr Evil.

If you're wondering, "Is that blue shag carpet?"
Yes it is.



On edit:

Here's how it looked after being burned and torn down in the early 2000's.
