What Happened to Monticello Hotel After Hotel Hell? (Longview, WA)

The Monticello Hotel in Longview, Washington, was the property featured in Hotel Hell's second episode of season two, which aired 2014-07-28. According to Wikipedia, the seven-story hotel was built between November 1922 and its opening on July 14, 1923, after town founder R.A. Long gave the building to the city in early 1923; it was designed by the Kansas City architectural firm Hoit, Price, and Barnes and originally held 200 rooms. Wikipedia describes the Monticello as a historic former landmark hotel that is now a current apartment building, with the number of units reduced to 60 from the original 200 rooms.

Wikipedia also notes the hotel's name commemorates the 1870s-era Monticello Convention, signed in the earlier settlement of Monticello in Oregon Territory that was displaced when Longview was built. Consistent with Wikipedia's description of the building's residential conversion, current location data for the property lists the business as Monticello (Dining, Event and Residential Center) on Facebook, with a Google-derived business status of operational at 1405 17th Ave, Longview, WA. That combination of an active residential-and-event listing alongside Wikipedia's description of the building as a current apartment property indicates the Monticello no longer functions as a hotel, though the building itself remains in active use for housing, dining, and events.
