Tonight on Hotel Hell I’m in Oregon trying to save a family run hotel that’s way way out of control the dad is a stoner hippie I’m not a businessman why are you talking so much [ __ ] I’m going to knock him on his ass and the sons are at each other’s
Throats grow up and turn into a real man [ __ ] you my God and Mom is drowning in debt you owe a million on it yes can I fix a business where they spend more time getting high than working it definitely smells of a business that’s run by Stoners yeah I Know the Apple gate River Lodge is located in beautiful Applegate Oregon the lodge is nestled amongst gorgeous Rivers Lush Vineyards and Bast some of the Northwest most stunning views owners Joanna and Richard Davis built the lodge 22 years ago Richard actually designed the lodge and built it having that much
Workload a stress was just unbearable once this labor of love was completed Richard decided it was time to take a break and relax for 20 years the couple got divorced so Richard now lives on sight in a next to the main Lodge my given name was Richard but at
This stage of my life I just go by pow but the Applegate River Lodge it’s been a way of life here for my family for about 22 years right now my duties are making sure that the energy that was given to me to steuart is here on the
Property at all times and yeah it’s pot let grab my guitar see where is my guitar while Richard is looking for guitar back on Earth his ex-wife Joanna is desperately looking for the money to keep The Lodges doors open we could easily lose anywhere from $5 to $15,000 a month just because
Of lack of business what’s going on see we got any reservations coming up what are you doing nothing just screwing her off I actually live in my motor home I rented my house out did you need something no I’m just hanging out I don’t see the Apple gate we just a
Business never have never will all the pressure of running the lodge falls on Joanna’s shoulders she had High Hopes her two sons dukee and Dusty would take charge of the business I just totally [ __ ] disagree with what you’re doing should be none of your concern there’s a big window you don’t
Have anything to do with this goddamn restaurant but their constant fighting has gotten in the way my brother and I have a rocky relationship and uh led to fist fights and all sorts of arguments the brothers refuse to work together so dusty runs the restaurant and bar as a
Separate business I I’ll grab you a menu and we can get you something else with his girlfriend and headchef cmy way too much olive oil on him they turn him back while duuk and his wife Melissa used the hotel’s lobby as a concert venue organizing Regular Music nights how’s everybody feeling [Applause] Tonight Dusty’s a lot more into deadlines and numbers and I’m a lot more into feelings and ideas and Concepts a lot of people say there’s too much po smoke and too much music too much of this and too much of that too much fun that’s not my take
On and if that’s not enough of a headache for guests trying to sleep Richard holds after hours Jam sessions what time is it 1:1 I have had to comp some rooms here at the lodge if it was too noisy for them or they didn’t think the room was
Clean enough e there’s spider all over it so gross I’ve had to cop quite quite a few rooms unsurprisingly the Inn is hemorrhaging money dragged down by a co-owner who doesn’t treat the lodge as a business and two fighting Sons if I can’t get this family working together
Their business is doomed this Lodge is my life it’s a legacy to carry on through generations but the family is so dysfunctional that Gordon’s just going to say you know what I can’t fix you guys we have to save the business we have to save our family I think Gordon’s our only hope
My first time in Oregon beautiful countryside I’m on my way to the Applegate River Lodge now if they got a lodge here and they’re not making a fortune they must be doing something seriously wrong that is beautiful my goodness me what’s that dump and what’s that Smell you ready to go back to sleep troop Gastly wow hello it is huge but it’s so empty where’s all the furniture and where is everybody am I too late wow press the button for the buzz to summon a human with answers you are kidding
Me just relax I to do exactly what I’m doing Hello it’s like this place hasn’t been finished off inside hello hello where are the guests supposed to sit Hey hey hello what are you doing good I I thought you’d gone no I was uh just hanging out uh sorry I didn’t catch your first name Richard Richard but around here they kind of call me PW but po but PW but PW but we’re just but Lings all of us are in
Around here do you normally run from desk this Bell goes to my room okay and then when music starts coming I turn it over music the music program we’re going to do tonight um there a music there’s a band playing tonight yes and then we’ll probably jam out later in the butt Hut
What is the butt Hut just help me would you like to see the butt Hut uh I’d love to see the butt Hut okay yeah this is where you run the reception from the butt Hut Yeah wow this is the but this is where me and troopy hang out try get up smell what is that smell incense they’re right here incense that is a strong [ __ ] incense Jesus yeah but that doesn’t smell like the smell I’ve just smelted yeah it’s herbs it’s a medicinal herb I
Love herbs especially the freshness of them you can use it for cooking if you want to do a really nice fet Chini okay was it like Bas this yeah it’s like a basil wow it has a nice smell to it [ __ ] me that’s definitely not basil is this cannabis
Yes so we smoke by that’s what I could smell the minute I came in here yeah what you want me to do is this legal here yes I use a medicinal herb before you put your hands back in that cookie jar do you mind if I see my
Room it’s getting a bit late oh oh I’m know I’m done for a while okay you’re done for I medicated you know so how do I get to the room I’ll show you this is a first the owner of this Lodge is as high as a kite wow look at
This place he probably hasn’t even noticed the place has no furniture this is the catlan room Catan room thank you yeah it smells sells like cattle in here wow what happened to the carpet did the dog have an accident you know we party a lot here so you’re going to have liquor
Who knows what’s on these carpets right what is that that’s just bugs a bugs bloody H yeah and a crispy diry long leg that’s disgusting and this is your view out here no I didn’t notice the view because of the carpet my God what a stunning
Location it’s parad ni it truly is yeah I say I mean this place is stunning shame is so filthy Richard so the bedrooms up here right right what in the hell has happened to this carpet I haven’t been up there in a while there’s more stains on this carpet
Than inside Hugh Hefner’s [ __ ] wife oh yeah I told you they party in here no but how I mean how many come look at this car every room’s got those stains on them you know and what about the cover on the bed when was that from 1970
You have talked to Joan about that Joan that’s your wife ex-wife ex oh damn yeah damn yeah she wants to be a business which it should be it’s not a business to me don’t ask me finances cuz I would be lying if I told you I knew anything I
Don’t let’s catch up later I’m going to unack my bags okay thanks for the update this place is disgusting wow and it’s hardly surprising seeing that the owner doesn’t see it as a business I need some fresh air F he clearly doesn’t care about pain guess kids don’t do drugs you
End up like that [ __ ] useless I’ve just arrived at Oregon’s Applegate River Lodge hello the hotel lobby has no furniture it is so bare in here the rooms are disgusting it’s like a basil and I’ve discovered one of the owners is a Carefree hippie it’s not a business to
Me Richard says his ex-wife is the businesswoman here I hope she has a better head on her shoulders hello Joanna Joanna God nice to see you nice to meet you so your Jo was married to Richard yes that you deserve a medal um and what did you do well let’s see I
Check people in I do the banking I mean I’m I’m the only one in the family that’s ever you know taken care of the books and made sure that the mortgage payment was paid why is it all on your shoulders you just sound like the only
One who’s actually in control of this I am the only one always been no he’s never even looked at the checkbook I’m really tired I’m getting tired of holding everything up and it’s getting old driving through here those Vineyards the mountains I mean you must be making a
Fortune well you know I’m well I owe 990,000 on this and we lose from $5 to $115,000 a month this is crazy yeah but how can the business not be in profit that’s my I I don’t know I don’t understand no that’s that’s what I need
You for I honestly having seen the lobby and my bedroom yeah I can see why the hotel might be struggling but surely the restaurant must be making money with that view on the river like that well the restaurant is run by Dusty my younger son okay and then Duke and his
Wife run the music end of the business what percentage of the profits did you get none bloody hell it sounds nuts I know it sounds nuts just crazy wow I mean look at this place there like a missed opportunity beyond belief I mean I that’s what everybody
Tells me everybody says you got a gold mine here and I go well so far I haven’t found the gold this place is a patch of Heaven so I’m shocked to hear it’s not making money I can’t wait to hear why Joanna’s Sons aren’t contributing to the lodgy
Finances nice to see you first name is you Melissa Melissa G nice to see you too well hello how are you likewise my pleasure good to see you J right yeah so this is set up for the concert yeah I run the sound okay mixing yeah okay
Great and how much is it to get in it’s $15 $15 $5 yeah so out of that $15 charge how much goes to mon none none wow let’s let’s have a quick word outside the place has got a million dollar debt yeah I know and it’s and and and
I’ve been sitting waiting and I I can I can relate I think I know what’s going on here when was the last time we had a smoke way earlier this after the 20 minutes ago no no no no this morning this morning definitely relieves stress but it definitely smells of a business
That’s run by Stoners yeah I know dukee isn’t taking any responsibility for the lodge hopefully his brother will have a better excuse for not sharing any profits with his mom Gordon wants to meet you hello hello Dusty Dusty uh lucky Dusty well it sounds of things oh yes of course I
Would say hello hi camia camia nice the chef right yes okay great I’m a very hard worker I think Gordon’s going to like me uh so are you making money here yes sir how much money did you make a month uh last month I made about 122,000
Wow so you make about 150 Grand a year uh with everything working right yeah and you don’t pay a dollar profit to your mother profit excuse me the business is a million dollars in debt you make a shitload of money and your mom gets nothing I was shocked that
Dusty makes that much and that bothers me because he should help me out financially known for well that you stand to inherit this business there’s still not a penny that goes in to reducing debts and this is your mother correct I really devoted my life to this
Place and to be treated like I don’t care about my family and don’t care about this business it really cut to the core and I have no problem telling him to get the [ __ ] out of here I’d give a kick with the ass if that was my
Son I don’t understand why the boys are just in it for themselves why can’t the business workers one and everybody pulled together well you haven’t done a damn thing around here I work hard here and I don’t see you do [ __ ] thing because you can’t take any criticism without
Wanting to punch my [ __ ] lights out incredible how do you feel about this shut the [ __ ] up both of you it’s him he hates me what would you like me to do what would I want to see you grow up and turn into a real man I want to
See you oh like you’re a [ __ ] real man I want to I want to see you be able to go and my God no wonder this place is on its knees [ __ ] you I’m at Oregon’s Applegate Lodge and I thought the answer for saving this place was for everyone to work together you
Can’t take any criticism without wanting to punch my [ __ ] lights out but the boys can’t even talk to each other this guy tells me he won’t even be my [ __ ] brother unless I it’s clearly not just the lodge that’s falling apart [ __ ] you my God people have heard about my visit and
Both the hotel and restaurant are booked for the night right this way guys I feel sorry for all of them hi there come on over here I’ll check you in how you folks doing tonight and I’m sorry about the furniture in the lobby they haven’t
Got any please take a seat on the stairs the guests don’t look impressed with the hotel and neither do the customers in the restaurant but at least they’ve got Furniture to sit on Bretta here guys oh [ __ ] that’s right Bretta here for you guys oh man okay fire up you got to tr

Off guys and we got cream Tanish coming around guys the dog at the table is that normal like that the dog does he sit there like that in front of customers yes sir someone request him to stay some call them over yes some customers call
The dog over oh yes of course the food’s that bad while I’m trying to figure out what’s wrong in the restaurant guests in the hotel are enjoying the unique charm of the Applegate Lodge just the goober or some kind here you know look at this you got your dry
Cleaner hangers I just got to know about the bear though I mean that’s kind of oh my gosh where’s the TV I hope the restaurant’s better than the rooms C I need that th Island that goes with this one here um ketchup okay we’re gotting ketchup a
Ranch and that’ll be 1,000 right here okay what was that ketchup in that salad yeah what for for the Thousand Island F hell I can’t believe this restaurant is making money the guest must be coming for the view because the food is Dreadful this says grilled salmon with
Pepper but it tastes like you literally just sprinkled it with sugar the salmon is frozen I I’ll be more than happy I’ll just take that off your D certainly I can’t stand to watch another minute of this thank goodness dinner service is almost over because this place is a joke oh dear
Got 2 minutes I’m embarrassed I’m amazed you’re still open there’s no [ __ ] standards in here I don’t believe that there’s no standards you got a river running outside your patio with salmon in it and you’re serving frozen salmon where’s the standard then what we do here is not
[ __ ] you may be able to manipulate your mother but you are not going to pull the wall over Myers because you’re playing run a restaurant that’s been given to you you haven’t actually worked for this have you you grew up here so hey Mom I want
To be a restaurant her this week without your mother in this Lodge you’re [ __ ] it’s nearly 10:00 when many Hotel guests will be thinking of heading to bed but the music concert is just about to start we’ve been doing this for 20 years we’ve been playing music I think Gordon’s going to like it this is the noisest Hotel I don’t do drugs so I never thought I’d see a dancing mushroom but I was wrong this is I recognize the it’s like the summer of love these people are weird but they sure are friendly there we go Excell nice to see you I love you
Too is this a dream is this really happening so are you checking in I am so sorry welcome to the [ __ ] mad house your room is um up these log stairs right behind you here it’s insane how guests are trying to check in over this
Racket if I had arrived to this I would have gotten on the first plane back home I don’t think I’ll be able to relax here I can’t really escape the sound wow and the longer the music goes on the more guests complain I can’t you guys want to come back
Here you know what it’s on me tonight okay we’re going to make you happy no matter what okay all right with Joanna away rooms for free the LOD is losing money pushing this hotel further into debt hey thank you guys so much for being a part of this how about one more
Time for poly rythmics it’s way past midnight and with the band finally wrapping up it’s time for me to get some sleep before I dive under those covers I’m dying to see what’s on top of them that is disgusting I am not putting my head on that
Pillow ah I just touched that it’s like a mosaic of the Sean look at that disgusting oh look at the lampshade look at that how can they charge money for people to sleep in this filth wow this is definitely a night for my sleeping bag right Li Out oh come on it’s like trying to sleep above a nightclub follow oh [ __ ] holy [ __ ] I’m going to jump out the Window this is crazy oh for God’s Sake [Applause] hey Gordon it’s my first night at Oregon’s Applegate Lodge and there’s no way I can sleep over this Dreadful noise I’ve had [Applause] enough hey I’ll yeah I know I’m trying to get the sleep up there we got two seconds yeah thank you this is insane my
God um how on Earth is anyone supposed to sleep with that [Applause] ret C can you get the family together yeah and can we just have a a meeting together holy [ __ ] I don’t know what to say I’m I’m I’m struggling I’ve never seen anything quite as shoddy as I’ve experienced
Today and I I I’m I’m wondering why this place is still open how much money do we make tonight how much money did you make about 1,500 bucks, 1500 how much money did you make tonight uh a couple 100 couple hundred about 500 but with all the noise complaints Joanna had to comp
Three rooms isn’t that right absolutely you two make a profit but your mother loses money it does not make sense nobody said we were sensible people oh we we just bless people having a million dollars in debt is not blessed first of all you don’t understand what you’re talking
About you’re talking business mhm you’re a businessman’s The Bu I’m not a businessman and I don’t try to teach the people to be business people it’s this is our home no one knows the difference between a hotel and the home and does anyone else know how much stress and
Pressure you’re under um you know I do what I have to do to to keep the doors open you know can we just quit talking about money Richard why can’t it be financially secure so that both kid we are financially Rich we are not you can
Laugh at this and laugh at that and we just want to make everybody happy man listen it ain’t an issue with with me you’re refusing to look at the issue because you and your sons are taking advantage of Joanna no it’s not an issue so why are you talking so much [ __ ]
It’s not [ __ ] it’s straight up everything you say to me I’m just ignore I’m going to knock him on his ass you think I care what you think about me Richard don’t don’t you go have your cigarette I’ll go have my cigarette relax a little bit and we’ll come back and then discuss
This I’m not going to ask arue with your father I’m just going to call it as I say it this Lodge needs to be run by a business and when I listen to your mom stressing out about payments and you two going off running your own little businesses because you two are Buton
Heads it’s a [ __ ] disgrace this [ __ ] has to stop because right now this lady’s suffering yet your heads are so far in in the [ __ ] sand that no one can actually see the damage you’re causing my worst nightmare is that Duke and Dusty never can get on the right
Page and and I’m stuck till I’m 90 years old trying to run this place and then I die and it’s gone I’m not a miracle worker if you want this place to survive you need to come together as a family and run this place as a proper family
Business it is way past everybody’s bedtime I’ll see you in the morning good night fcking this place is insane I mean I’ve never seen such a badly run large in all my life and the one person I feel sorry for is Joanna everybody else they think it’s
A big joke I tell you what I’m not [ __ ] Laughing oh God with all the parting going on at this Lodge I hardly got a WI wink of sleep I don’t want to stand on that carpet this Lodge is in a dreadful State and I think everyone’s blind to it that has to change morning you okay my Dy yeah uh there’s
Something I want you to understand because I think you’re the only one who can actually appreciate some things that’s been going on here yeah yeah what you come up with me what he might be showing me next I don’t know how much worse it could get hello

Days ago both of us weren’t really pleased we were all the way in the Myrtle Suite so we were the closest to the bar and we could hear it like we were next to it uh my apologies uh I’m sorry please Madam sir we got the honey
Moon suite and the bathroom wasn’t clean so we you know I cleaned it and it just kind of grossed us out the fact you had to clean the room before you tried to relax it’s insane Madam please we got into bed and felt something I pulled it up with my
Foot and it was a pair of underwear dirty underwear oh my God as she I mortified that is completely unacceptable did you have any interactions with Richard Richard invited us to the back room what in the like the but yes to do what there was marijuana in
The back he offered which we did not partake taking guests into the butt room and offer them marijuana it’s not a hippie commune it’s a it’s a large I know I thank you for your time the guest feedback has hit Joanna hard and now she’s asked to speak to me
Alone morning in you okay my d oh I wanted to show you this book it’s the building of the lodge and kind of see what we went through oh wow from the beginning from the beginning yeah wow we built it with our hands we fell the trees we hand peeled the poles we
Did it all and it’s it’s an amazing Story how we pulled this together I think if you understand the struggle that we went through to get it to this place you understand why I’m so fired up about keeping it and and having it run wow topnotch and this is this is sort of
Ground zero this is where start Ground Zero yeah that’s that’s the but Hood actually seriously that’s incredible and the kids you know they were all here we grew up here they’re they’re attached to it it means so much to them now I understand I mean it’s clearly your your
Little Paradise but I don’t think it’s been Paradise for guests but that’s all going to change yep wow look at that and they lived happily ever after that was my dream and I think that could still happen it is going to happen please let’s go and do this okay you right I’ll
See you shortly okay thank you for that sure now I can see why Joanna loves this Lodge so much and I know that to save this place I need to get her sons talking again clearly their dad’s not going to make that happen he’s too busy

Whole life Gordon what are you talking about you you really think that you haven’t done anything what have I tell me tell me what I’ve done tell me what I said to you that hurts you so bad cuz you said so many things to me you’ve

Vacation it would be a tragedy if Joanna and her family lost it w what an absolutely beautiful place to go for a swim but there’s still one problem I need to tackle to make sure this Lodge has a future it deserves it’s time to talk business take a seat um Richard there’s
A business meeting okay you’re not really involved running the business okay and I I think you need to let these guys deal with the business so I would ask you to disappear okay you’re a nice guy you’re not going to change and you know what I don’t think your family want

Heart since my visit to the Applegate River Lodge Dusty and jke continue to get along and they’re helping Joanna get income for the lodge to reduce their debt if you want to get all the trash I’ll get all the dishes uh okay this family run hotel is finally running
Smoothly I feel like this is the first step to taking the lodge into a destination Resort which is what it needs to be we should spend more time together as a family you know yeah Gordon has given us an opportunity of a lifetime and we’re not going to let him
Down I want to thank Gordon for having the love in his heart to come here and put my family back Together that’s what I want love you love you Too tonight on Hotel Hell a near fatal accident has left Mississippi Hotel owners in a desperate situation I broke both of my ankles and my back in two places the business is failing and with not enough money coming in this married couple have lost lost their home you
Live in here yes there’s not even a window I have to do what you have to do if I don’t do something soon they will lose everything we have two children I would like for them not to have to worry about their mom and dad you’ve let this
Business swallow the both of you up I think you deserve something better I only hope I’m not too Late The hotel Chester is located in Starkville Mississippi home to the Mississippi State University husband and wife David and Suki mandor bought the hotel in 2000 before buying the Chester David traveled the world as a hotel troubleshooter I worked in the hotel industry 39 9 years thank you for
Calling Hotel Chester wanted to try and settle down and give our kids one stable place to be one of us got to get taller to begin with the 36 bedroom hotel was a real success packed with students and locals how you doing good then a sudden tragedy hit the
Family David was coming home and was uh involved in a a major auto accident we thought we lost him that changed all of us it’s overnight he crushed his feet and was bedridden for almost 6 months it’s a little dated before is very dated in David’s absence standards dropped and customers stopped coming
Well we were losing so much money that I had to file for bankruptcy the financial losses have been so bad the bank foreclosed on their home so now they’re living in the hotel living in the hotel working together in the hotel I feel tired and I feel
Uh out of sync with the world they couldn’t afford payroll so sukii left her job in real estate and took over as chef and temporary manager it was my idea that we open a sushi restaurant never worked in any restaurant kitchens before in my entire life but I knew how
To make that’s isue my mouth’s confused but despite her best intentions with no formal training oh she’s struggling oh where’s my knife Suki spends all her time in the hotel so she’s blind to the tens of thousands of students and tourists who could be potential customers and the hotel’s
Bedrooms and dining room are empty most nights I just need those Entre yeah but I guess they’re coming you know I see it in my parents eyes I see that they’re physically exhausted that they’re mentally drains my mom she used to be Lively vibrant she’s honestly half woman she
Used to be man I for I’m losing my mind when I came to this place I was 180 lbs of Twisted blue steel sex appeal and mucho hell and this old [ __ ] has worn me down to 200 lb of flab gab and toal noas with all almost no money coming
Into the hotel David and Suki are hanging on by a very thin thread I need Gordon to help my parents because if this hotel doesn’t change it’s we lose everything this is It I’m in Starfield Mississippi’s college town I’m on my way to the hotel Chester Mississippi State University founded in 187 8 any hotel with a college on their doorstep should be absolutely thriving not just for the students but with their parents as well I can’t wait to check in the hotel
Chester where is this place I can’t even see the sign okay I’m going pulling over here got to know where it is how are you I’m looking for the hotel Chester I’ve never been there before you never been there find it I’ve gone round three times
It’s easy to miss easy to miss yeah I can’t see any signs well there may be one sign but I mean it’s not it’s not too big okay great EXC thank you enjoy the students never go to the Chester despite the fact it’s right next to the campus
Weird there we are there Historic Hotel Chester entrance well such a huge building and such a tiny sign it’s Madness finally morning sir hey good morning how are you good to see you g good to see you and I’m David David I see well I finally found the place that is so confusing

Breakfast yes sir nice now I just want you to know I’m not always at the desk okay but you’ll be able to recognize me even if I’m walking away from you cuz I’m the one who looks like he’s riding a chicken riding a chicken yeah I’ve never

Wife so it’s nice to be around her until she gets her nose out of joint she has a chef’s temperament if you’re not familiar with it they can fly off the handle pretty easy what’s your background I’m a hotel guy I was in Vietnam and I went to hotel
So you qualified as a hotelier well so in my view yeah well that’s great good to hear graduated with a major in hotel and restaurant management and I’ve been in the business almost 40 years so in a nutshell what’s wrong with a hotel that’s a question we’re not sure we
Don’t think it’s a quality issue uh neither for our rooms or our food and and beverage why don’t you both show me to the room okay I’ve been a general manager of a lot of hotels I eventually became a turnaround guy to take on problem properties so my big surprise
Here is that I’m having a hell of a time trying to turn this thing around we just call it an executive King oh dear okay this is it yes sir what is that swing it’s a leather but it’s a rough leather and very difficult to
Clean it’s so Bland I mean it’s like a cheap motel chain I feel like I’m in the witness protection program this pressing here so when was the last time the rooms were touched 2003 2003 so 10 years ago it feels like something out of the 1970s
Our hotel rooms are dated you know we Tred to call it period Furniture yeah I don’t know what to say always tells you that a place is on the decline when you walk in you’ve got Ralls that are a mess scuffs everywhere and big marks on the
Sofas that you’re expected to pay good money to sit down in so far I’m not digging it I’m going to unpack and then like to come down and and um have a bite to eat Suki so what’s your experience in the kitchen my father had a sushi restaurant in Washington DC parents have
A Japanese restaurant had my pass away of course did you work in the kitchen no just washing [Laughter] dishes anyway listen I’m going to unpack thank you good to see you likewise and I’m pop down every a bite to eat okay thank you so you know I feel like the guy who
Want walked into a bar with a big frog on his head went up to the bar and asked the bartender for a drink and the bartender said man I tell you you got a problem don’t you and the Frog said yeah I sure do can you cut this ward off my
Ass and God can that man talk bars and restaurants in a vibrant college town like this are always packed at lunchtime but this place is dead I’m Lindsay how are you good there you go let me get you something to drink je ice cold water okay please mhm than mying um
What would you recommend strawberry field Sushi is uh very popular it’s a little bit sweeter I’ll try it Las Vegas as an appetizer as well and then oh the Secura five individual rolls rolled into one I don’t know how you execute all that Japanese food on that menu when
You’re not trained doesn’t quite make sense oh my goodness this is not good there’s not a lot of people in starville that like our Sushi it’s a little bit different from what other places in starville Have got this SL Suki runs her kitchen the way she wants to it’s always takes too long in between tickets but there was really nothing I could do about it this food is taking way too too long I’ve been waiting over an hour for raw fish oh my God I can’t take this anymore oh
God damn it I’m at starville Mississippi’s Hotel Chester and I’ve been waiting for my lunch for a very long Time damn It jeez I noded off there my God does the sushi usually take this long yes sir what is this one Las Vegas oh my God salmon cream cheese and asparagus and then it’s deep fried and uh comes with a jalapenos fried salmon with cream cheese disgusting what a strange combination very weird it
Doesn’t work for me that one I mean it’s just um greasy um and get this out of the way as quick as possible okay thank you you’re welcome this is Dreadful my first impressions of the food here is that is as bad as the roomsa Secura and there’s cream cheese in the
Middle look at that thing so it’s pretty big right so how are you supposed to get it in your mouth I’ve never eaten it before let’s try come on me we’re in this together oh no you ordered this one all on your own there she was there she there really
Open m please wait there is no way this is going to fit my mouth ready 1 2 3 uh-uh I can’t do it now I know how my granddad feels he puts in new teeth in can I throw it away now so you took one little bite I did
Damn disaster total disaster how did it taste by the way I’m very good the Sakura is very chewy Suki does try her best but she has no idea what she’s doing what’s wrong with a Sakura Bland ugly chewy strange combination chewy yep and impossible to put in your
Mouth let me tell you about my sushi I’m not a Morimoto or no absolutely I’m doing my best and I respect rice what is this one strawberry field man look at that strawberry on sushi on behalf of every Japanese Chef in America I’d like to apologize it’s
Very weird which part is so just just you wouldn’t cover white tuna with strawberries and then glaze it Strawberry Fields i’ rather [ __ ] eat a beetle it’s too sweet strawberries don’t belong with tuna I am frustrated that Gordon does not like a yay Sushi I’ve tried all I can how you doing honey
Bun he doesn’t like any he doesn’t like any of it no so truthfully what is wrong with this place lack of business so on an average weekend how many guests would you do on a busy weekend maybe 12 people are they in-house guests Hotel guests usually so virtually nobody from the outside correct
Jesus anyway where are the owners can you uh tell me where they are sure thank you they’ve got just 36 bedrooms yet on a busy night just 12 guests eat here with food that bad I’m not surprised congratulations on the longest lunch I’ve ever had in my entire cooking
Career that was 97 minutes you know and half of it was raw as not is cook why you making sushi it’s crazy I’m trying my best to to at least introduce Mississippi let’s it liveit healthier there’s nothing healthier with my lunch maybe a health warning your surely you
Should be giving the locals what they want to eat that’s why they come well talking to Lindsay the only customers we get now are the ones staying in the hotel which is practically no one the business is on its ass and how much debt are you in over 900,000 $900,000
Right we are in De please don’t say you don’t Know so far Starfield Mississippi’s Hotel Chester has been a massive let down Hotel Chester entrance well such a huge building and such a tiny sign the dated soulless rooms are awful it’s like a cheap motel chain strawberry on Sushi the sushi is the worst I’ve ever had
It’s hideous and David the co-owner has just admitted to me and to his wife that they’re almost a million dollar in debt $900,000 right we are in dead please don’t say you don’t know I’m deeply sorry and I’m I’m sad you’re upset I’m not upset at you David should
Not have been hiding the financial status from me finding out she’s been kept in the dark has angered Suki Dave I I don’t know what we are doing I do the spending side and you do the paying side I don’t share the finances with Suki this is getting ridiculous cuz I’m
Afraid of hurting Suki’s feelings calm down no I’m not going to come down while the owners argue guests who have heard about my visit are arriving at the Chester for dinner you’re just going to go to the restaurant which is just straight shoot right back there all
Right okay and tonight the russan and hotel will be full of people for the first time in years I feel sorry for all of them how long have they actually been waiting I would say at least 45 minutes 45 minutes my apologies how long have you been waiting I’m sorry we’ve been
Here over about an hour an hour I’m sorry I’ve never seen anything like this before it’s insane how long these guests are waiting so what table is this Suki oh pardon me I’m sorry no I just asked what table are you doing the very first table the very first table
It’s been well over an hour and Suki is only working on the first table she’s really struggling and yet Dave is not stepping in to lend her hand so you know over an hour in dist service would you go in and help her I would but you know that’s just not my
Territory unfortunately it’s like the hotel’s falling apart around you if someone needs you in the kitchen in the bar a reception shouldn’t you be m multitasking the kitchen is her territory I’m just asking it’s your hotel I I know and I appreciate that yeah if the kitchen’s not David’s
Territory then maybe the rooms are like touch the blinds and there’s like dust all over it kind of a beat up family look like it came out of someone’s house when they died this is definitely not supposed I want to hang out it seems to me that David has
Checked out I don’t understand what’s going on here this is not good Suki is totally out of her depth having only dealt with one of the eight tables waiting for food Christ oh no this is awful wow what’s wrong D they said it wasn’t cooked it’s cold needs more cooking mom what’s
Wrong not C you okay like don’t you want to get her in trouble why is she burs into tears you okay I’m fine help me understand what’s going on no I just the fish is undercooked in the center I know I know I just I
Don’t um what is it that I’m missing the point I don’t understand why she’s in there pling head chef because we don’t have anyone else I mean she became Chef when my dad was in a car accident in 2008 he was bedridden for about 6 months
And then Mom moved in and run the hotel the next day my mom became a chef overnight she came to the hotel saw where she thought she was needed and jumped in the kitchen and ever since she’s been trying to make it work and so how long has it been functioning like
This I mean I think it’s been in this state for about uh 2 or 3 years my dad has taken a step back and given up a little bit okay we have to be strong get some fresh air get your eyes nice and bright okay finally I get it the hotel Chester
Has been in a tail spin since David’s car accident I wish Suki or David had told me well the beig garden interesting Suki is just trying to make this work as best she can but she is failing miserably and David has Hotel knowledge but since the accident he has taken a
Back seat this whole place feels lost the owners the restaurant the bedrooms even this Garden feels abandoned just like the din guest the customers are getting so pissed off I’m going to have to do something otherwise this place is going to go crazy The hotel Chester in starville Mississippi is on the brink of financial disaster and I finally found out why my dad was in a car accident in 2008 David’s car accident sent the hotel into a sharp decline oh no Suki is drowning in the kitchen trying to keep the
Business afloat how long I be waiting I would say at least 45 minutes we’ve been here over about an hour while our husband David isn’t taking the Reigns I can’t see the dino star so I’ve Dash over to the local supermarket the least I can do to help poor Suki is to
Cook up a few sliders before the customers walk out those diners get any food trust me tonight it’s coming from me that’s ridiculous in there an hour for appetizers Crazy so sorry about delay there a little be slider from the barbecue in the garden I don’t want you guys watching away everybody got some food now feel a little bit better yes the burgers have brought Suki enough time to get through the rest of dinner service without anyone walking
Out after a long 3 hours everyone has finally been fed I’m sure Suki is as relieved as me that dinner service is over how are you Suki fine fine fine yes that was a tough one it was very tough yeah yes sir why don’t you guys get out
Of here you go home let’s hook up first thing tomorrow morning how far as home away from here this is our home now that room what do you mean this is your home we live here you you live on site yes you have an apartment here no right in
There there a the handicap room that’s our that’s our home now you live in the handicap room yes can you show me since Dave’s accident I gave up everything we have no money so we had no choice but to live in this room you live in here
Yes there’s not even a [ __ ] window no Suki I had no idea things were this bad well you have to do what you have to do I’m so sorry well you know sometimes you have the bad times could you get David okay please I don’t know what else to do we have two
Children I would like for them to be um not to have to worry about their mom and dad okay so you were running this hotel this was your baby that’s right David yes and sadly you got involved in a tragic car accident yes what happened I broke both of my ankles and
My back in two places we nearly lost him I mean you know I was pretty busted up so I’ve been spending most of the past 5 years just recovering why did you sell your house we couldn’t make the payment and you for clothed yes that’s terrible I’m sorry I
Didn’t know that and you come home every night now into this bedroom mhm this is awful it is no way to live I think you deserve something better I promise I’m going to help you fix this place okay yes sir thank you Gordon thank you will you get some rest please
Sometimes I’ll go 7 days without stepping out of the hotel and it’s uh it’s sad I can’t believe David and Suki have been living like this for years I’ve never wanted to help two people so badly I just hope I’m not too Late oh that was a rough night’s sleep um I couldn’t stop thinking about David and Zuki downstairs where they are almost cooped up in that tiny room with no windows my sleep was rough but Christ imagine going through that for 3 years like they’ve been doing
God David and Suki have sunk so far they have lost sight of the outside world if they lose this hotel then they lose everything I need to show them the potential of this place before it’s too late it’s like a sink That come on this is ridiculous I can’t even get my feet wet David and Suki need to see how to make the hotel Chester a success I’ve got a plan you’ve let this business swallow the both of you up y it is like quick sand you know you’ve lost your way
Not only have you lost the connection with each other but you lost the connection out there out there the town the students the community both of you come with me I got something to show you that can save the life of your hotel in the car
Please when was the last time you two went out for lunch I can’t remember you’ve never been out for lunch together no no wow I want to show David and Suki a couple of places that are extremely successful because they tap in to what the community wants
Thank you oh wow L you always in this position it’s usually busier actually on a average weekend uh for instance um in the middle of summer how many covers you do hundreds and thousands probably I mean it gets so slam than thanks thank you sweet can you believe a th000 people a day
Here good honest Mississippian food I just want 10% you just want 100 people a day yeah I did not know that there were that many people eating out I’ve got one more place to show David and Suki to really make sure they see there are plenty of businesses doing
Well in the town how cool is this place oh this is a this is a really popular you know since my accident I really haven’t gotten around to much you know this business is 100 m from your front door thank you now no i d please how
Many covers you doing a day how many what’s the numbers um about 200 a day 200 a day customers and uh weekends generally double that so Aver 200 guests a day 400 of the weekends and families as well early evenings yeah a lot of our business revolves around colge stud
Thank you the purpose of this outting is to show you how these businesses are drawing from the University how they are open to every market and it does translate to the rooms you have a potential gold minine sat there you have traffic you’ve got to tap into the
Community that’s what you’re not doing I’m I’m convinced that’s correct I thought we were always welcoming students maybe we were wrong so it’s a yes definitely an eye opener now that I’ve shown David and Suki how much potential there is in starville I need them to commit to turning the hotel
Chester around that was nice I enjoy that yeah I did too to say it that busy for lunch was incredible the business is a there David you need to get your head back in the game that’s right I got some great ideas but you two have to be ready for
Change Gordon whatever Direction you help us to get on we’re not going to waver off of That when I arrived at starville Mississippi’s Hotel Chester it was invisible on the Main Street Hotel Chester entrance well such a huge building and such a tiny Sun and failing to appeal to the people who could make it a success the college students I’m convinced Suki and David
Are now ready for change whatever Direction you help us to get on we’re not going to waiver off of that so now it’s time to reveal the new hotel to David and Suki and their team oh my God look at that my sure as hell don’t have to worry
