hello everyone welcome back to the film insight channel in today's video we're going to discuss
some hotel hell businesses that had awful health code violations so sit back relax and without
further ado let's get straight into the content guys we're starting things off with curtis house
in my staff here you don't you make people feel uncomfortable and i'm telling you i don't know
whether anybody else is going to speak up the curtis house inn situated in woodbury connecticut
was featured in the seventh episode of the second season you won't believe how much debt this place
was in just check this out right now i would say we're about a hundred thousand dollars in debt
unfortunately the business's regression had created friction between the siblings that owned
it to remedy this issue chef ramsay was called in to bring the place back on his feet when he first
arrived this is what he thought about the place when jeff ramsey arrives to the front desk he
finds out something very peculiar chef ramsay was four hours early for a 3 pm check-in time
and he was told that there was an additional surcharge of 10 dollars per hour this is what
he does as a joke if i just take a little nap mr ramsey it's really not appropriate the famous chef
walks up to the front desk and finds a book full of credit card details lying openly on the desk
i got the credit card details to everybody i will have to call 9-1-1 by the time you've called 9-1-1
okay i've hacked into every credit card in this book and made myself a fortune surely the lady
at the front desk forewarns chef ramsay about something in his room you're really not going
to expect this i can't believe you're going to be in room 16. why because room 16 has a ghost in it
as he was trying to leave the room to go for lunch the door locked jammed and he got locked
in his room babe let me out honestly it must be the bloody ghost come on betty let me out was the
supposed ghost named betty who hunted the place hinting at something while in the dining room
he met tj and her mother trudy at the restaurant soon after he was seated and served by karen the
owner's niece for lunch chef ramsay orders this cupcakes the crab cakes take some calamari let's
have a little toasted burger how do you like it cookies medium breakfast you're welcome first
the crab cakes arrived and the dish was a disaster next came the fried kalamati and it tasted awful
lastly came the burger in the kitchen chef ramsay observes chris the head chef and the owner doing
something horrendous check out what he did hate mothers the way he's treating these dishes
you're wiping plates with this now imagine using this plate to serve a customer
yikes after chef ramsay's visit curtis house inn closed down in april of 2019
after being sold to new owners the end reopened as evergreen inn and tavern in june of 2019.
it was sold yet again and in june of 2020 it reopened at 1754 house
the place seems to have pretty mediocre reviews though alrighty next up we have calamay inn
the kalamae inn situated in pipestone minnesota was owned by sisters rina and vanda smarkowski
this hotel was featured in the fifth episode of the second season
when chef ramsay first entered the inn this was his reaction
at prison with an atm my god hello you are kidding me please when he makes his way to his room this
is what he finds wow holy mackerel is that mold in there i i wouldn't be surprised if it were mold
after a tour of the pathetic rooms chef ramsay worked up an appetite and decided to head down
for lunch there he meets jocelyn a waitress who worked at the hotel for two years while he places
his order he inquires about the quality of the food with the waitress who confesses that the food
was all frozen the main problem of the inn was the lack of communication between the sisters when
jeff ramsay was there he spruced the place up a bit and even prevented the sisters from bickering
by giving them a goldfish to take care of after the episode aired the trip advisor reviews were
mostly good but the yelp ones were mostly negative rina and vanda sold the hotel in june of 2015 to a
texan and are no longer the owners of the kalamei inn the hotel was briefly returned to the sisters
who then sold it to tammy grubbs the hotel had eventually fallen into a state of disrepair as
a result it was condemned by the city of pipestone after a fire inspection found nine violations of
the state's fire code work was completed and the inn was uncondemned on april 30th 2020.
owner tammy grubbs had made several claims against the city council over the treatment of the hotel
okay so we're moving on to the next hotel being beachfront in an inlet rule number one we can't
put hot food in walking it doesn't even go together no no no nowhere near each other
the beachfront in an inlet situated in fort pierce florida was owned by brian paul the business
was featured in the seventh episode of the third season the hotel manager liza thinks that paul has
no experience and just runs the place for the heck of it the staff of the inn love to take advantage
of his weakness especially chef ben with nothing left to do the owners call out to chef ramsay
for some aid let's see what his reaction was to the hotel it looks like the hotel's closed down
hello anybody in while looking around the place chef ramsay notices something horrible
and complains to liza about it the hotel was already starting to disappoint chef ramsay
what's worse he hadn't even reached his room yet once there the famous chef was shocked with the
awful state of the room do you want to know what gordon ramsay thinks about brian paulo the owner
well check this out i know when i'm coming to fix a business they have various issues but right now
with the information i have i am not impressed with how brian as an owner is operating this hotel
so when gordon ramsay went inside for his meal he had a little chat with the waitress who had
been working there for almost a year this was their exchange why did the staff have to buy
the t-shirts um i don't i was never told even our first shirts our name tags you buy your name
as well yeah we have to pay like eight dollars never seen that before after the waitress was
gone chef ramsay examined the menu this is what he thought about it as i look at the menu i notice
it's absolutely massive so i decided to order the chicken wings which honestly i wasn't surprised
when they were dry well i guess he just felt very overwhelmed with the abundant choices
so he ordered the simplest dishes he could find the whole meal turned out to be a complete
disaster i have the lobster mac and cheese which technically isn't mac and cheese because they use
penne pasta but the worst part of my lunch was the tuna burger which i knew wasn't quite right when
gordon ramsay confronted paul about the fish not being fresh this is what he said i ran up a little
bit of a bill with my brother so we cut back and started ordering some of the frozen stuff from
some of the purveyors and what's the feedback we get some negative feedback jeff ramsey asked the
inn's employees what the major setbacks had been listen to what the sous chef joey had to say about
working with brian working with ben i can't really tell you what he does and brian would just avoid
him instead of trying to get to the root of the problem and i think that in itself is a problem
the famous chef found out more about the hotel from another waitress as part of his research
sure enough towards the end of the episode chef ramsay comes to the rescue and spruces
the place up attracting in more customers but what exactly happened after the episode aired
four months after filming paul sacked chef ben and employed a new kitchen staff they
implemented a curfew for the live entertainment they hosted and paul shifted his focus to paying
guests rather than beachgoers they made further improvements including installing new kitchenettes
making a new menu adding patio furniture and a lot more there was even a new gift shop selling
navy seal merchandise chip advisor reviews were mixed and there were still complaints about late
night noise from the bar the help reviews were also very negative but that's not surprising
beachfront in an inlet was closed after the place was sold to new owners in 2019
the business now goes by the name sunrise sands beach resorts and has relatively average reviews
finally as our last entry we're going to discuss roosevelt's inn maybe i do want to punch you a
little bit but i can become physically very very violent and have in the past people get hurt
Gordon Ramsay visits the roosevelt inn bed and breakfast in kirkdalen idaho
the hotel was featured in the sixth episode of the first season the business was a living hell
for the guests that decided to come here thanks to the owner john hughes eccentric behavior
just check out what their server mariah miliman had to say about the hotel i would say that the
hotel is struggling because it's dated it's old hugh takes Chef Ramsay down a flight of stairs to
a room where guests can hang out with the dogs he was pretty surprised and guess what the hotel even
had a small ballroom you won't believe the cost it takes to upkeep this room when hugh showed Chef
Ramsay to his room it was hideous believe it or not it was much worse than the ballroom when Chef
Ramsay confronts you about why he takes things so lightly the deluded owner gets a little aggressive
so aggressive that he even seems to want to punch the famous chef in the face
what do you want me to do get angry and punch you you want to punch me
maybe i do want to punch you a little bit Chef Ramsay goes ahead and tries to inspect
the place even further and no he's not impressed everything about the hotel was falling short the
dust on there most disgusting of all oh [ __ ] is the dust magnet hanging over my pillows
help let me out the rooms were awful the management was sad and the food hugh couldn't even
prepare a boiled egg correctly i was wrong is this really happening he can't even boil a [ __ ] egg
things still got feathers on it the shrimp cocktail had a watery base and
the salmon was also sent back to the kitchen by Chef Ramsay the following day Chef Rmsay
reveals that he had to sleep on the couch as he couldn't sleep on the horrendous bed
he later invites hugh and his wife tina up to his room the ignorant owners are all given goggles to
wear and a blacklight test is conducted it reveals that the bedding and mattress
was covered in bodily fluids how disgusting absolutely disgusting if you think that's bad
this kind of stuff hasn't been weeks that's that's years
oh the guests are all appalled by this and tina's moved to tears at the revelation i was
at the end of the episode Chef Ramsay helped turn the hotel around and even
gifted plates and glasses worth fifty thousand dollars to the ballroom
a special gift to you worth fifty thousand dollars
you've now got so what exactly happened to the hotel after the episode aired since Ramsay
revamped the hotel yelp and tripadvisor reviews seem to be pretty excellent they've reported that
business is better and that Chef Ramsay's changes have made breakfast easier and better for the
guests they've also kindly named the swede after Chef Ramsay the roosevelt inn is one of the most
successful hotel rescues by Chef Ramsay as of 2022 it's the only hotel from hotel hell season
