This the most hillariously tacky hotel I've ever seen. Lord knows why they (snicker) demolished it. But as I studied its pop-ghastly details I kept thinking "Hey, I could make that in SL!" If you need inspiration a late 60's monstrosity (refered to on the website as "Jumble O' Crap Style";), look no further.

Just wanted to say thanks for the laugh... looks like the upcoming Anchorman movie should have recreated this location for some of their scenes!

That is the most god-awful, atrocious looking structure I have ever seen.

You're right, it just has to be made in Second Life. :) The whimsy factor is off the chart...

When viewing the "love nest" screen, I could swear I smelled Musk.

Interesting blend of Mod and Antoni Gaudi. I love it and hate it at the same time.

That is the most wonderful hotel I've ever seen. Scrap that trip to Paris my husband and I have been planning for our anniversary this year. We're goin' to the Gobbler!
