Goodbye mermaid

I have spotted this motel when it was about to close down a few days ago, and today I found it all empty and surrounded by fences. You guess what I did next.
I came a little too late though, all the bedrooms were already scrapped for renovation, so I only took shots from the outside and corridors.
And before you ask, I didn't swim in the pool, but that could have been fun!

Still pretty cool that you got to see it like this. Do you know if it's being torn down or is turning into something else? Thanks for sharing!

It looks like they are re-paining the rooms, so it will probably be re-purposed, but I don't know how yet.
Its main purpose right now is a potential clandestine pool party

Just invite all the neighbors and have a pool party. Cops come? Invite them, too

This sounds like the plot of a really bad, college centric comedy dick flick.

Great timing on your part to go and check it out! Did you assume that it had closed down before you went there, or did you intend on checking out a room?

I didn't want to book a room, I just passed by it on the street (it is very close to where I live), and saw the "FINAL SALE" sign, that's how I knew it was about to close down.
Now they are completely removing everything from the motel day after day, I wonder what they are going to do with it.

That's still awesome that you got to check everything out. Thanks for sharing the pictures!

Thanks!
I went to check that place again the other day, and here are a few more shots that show it under a more advanced state of destruction.
