It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2004.^[1] It is currently vacant, sold on the Jackson County Courthouse steps, and is possibly at risk of demolition.

The hotel, in 1991, was the setting for exterior shots in the Ministry music video for Just One Fix. The music video focused on heavy opiate drug use and featured author William S.
