I am looking for a picture of a old hotel that was on pearl St. I was told the name of the place could be The Alice or Allis Hotel. Thank You

Nice job, thanks!  :clap:

I went thru the MN Historical Society on-line archives without success, no photo of the Allis Hotel, nor a photo of the old motor court.

That is not the Allis that is the one on 65 South out by the old Pamida building.

Ok, there was a motor court on east main near where Hess Furniture once was.  I seem to recall that they were separate cabins.

I'm enjoying this thread.  Wishing I would have paid more attention to details when I was a kid.

It was here, I seen it a long time ago and remembered it when you said something.

The old albert hotel gives a very nice view. It looks very decent and graceful because of its special design.
