I sure hope it's been renovated in the intervening years, although even an extensive renovation cannot cure bad bones.
The bones hold it back a little (mostly ceilings) but it's as gut renovated as I've seen a building of this generation, including exterior accents. IIR it was a Wyndham or Ramada before Delta renovation. There was a small shopping center nearby that I remember going by on my run, close to a large cemetery and golf course.
