The hotel, in 1991, was the setting for exterior shots in the Ministry music video for Just One Fix. The music video focused on heavy opiate drug use and featured author William S. Burroughs as guest vocalist. The song was released on the band's 1992 album entitled Psalm 69 and has remained one of most popular tracks the band has ever produced.
