Found this posting on craigslist today... http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/bfs/1105906165.html Excellent property for investment purposes.

i like how tiny the photos are on craigslist, so you cant see the signs in the motel windows like this one: or this one: and yep, the tropics is a "rodeway inn". |

What happens to their 70% occupancy rate if those policies are enforced? |

Hmm...just a guess, but one would think to comply with a AAA rating those signs have probably been removed. Last time I was down there for a visit, they were doing some pretty extensive remodeling...wonder if this place is still Section 8 housing? PTD |

Yeah, I can't see those signs being good for business. Has the State been using the hotel as a halfway house of some sort? |

well, this sure won't help in selling the place.... Apr 23, 2009 5:26 am US/Pacific Mom Killed In Front Of Her Kids At A Modesto MotelSACRAMENTO (CBS13) ¯ Authorities are searching for a suspect who allegedly stabbed and killed a woman at a Modesto motel early Wednesday morning. The Modesto Police Department has identified 38-year-old Erick John Vogel, a Waterford resident, as the suspect in a murder at the Rodeway Inn on McHenry Avenue. Police found a woman in her 20s suffering from knife wounds just after 2:20 a.m. in one of the motel rooms, and she was pronounced dead at the hospital. The victim's two children were in the room at the time, but they were not harmed. Authorities believe the murder is a case of domestic violence, since Vogel and the victim had children. Vogel allegedly fled the scene and smashed through a chain link fence with his car. Detectives say Vogel may be driving a black 1991 Nissan Maxima with California license plate 5XDF473. Anyone with information on the case can call the Modesto Police Department at (209) 572-9500 or remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers at (209) 521-4636. You can also text tips to 274637 and type "TIP704" along with the message. it is always alarming to wake up to the morning news with images of modesto's tropics hotel tikis along with crime tape. the part where they mention that he smashed through the chain link fence indicates that he drove through it to zoom by the tiki lounge to make the escape. |

sigh Indiana sounds so nice. We have a house full of them across the street. I guess they are not all bad, any old furniture or computer equipment you leave out at the curb disappears immediately. [ Edited by: Jason Wickedly 2009-04-23 15:40 ] |

Tweakers suck. Then again...maybe I should make the band take a bunch of speed before a gig, ride in on a bunch of BMX bikes with our shirts off, and play... Ladies and gentlemen....The Tweakiyaki Orchestra OK...maybe not. |
