Surfing around today, I found a great album of photography from inside of The Purple Hotel. We don't claim any ownership of these pictures (that belongs completely to the photographer), but we wanted to share a link to his photos here.
Full credit goes to Dustin Walker for these great pictures!

I'll warn you. The photos are great, but their content isn't exactly pretty. Still, a shame to see this once great landmark reduced to such horrible conditions. It'd take a huge effort, but there's still hope someone can renovate this property!
Thanks for finding and using my photos. Lets all hope this Hotel can be saved in some shape way or form.
