Cambridge Hotel today

In an episode of the TV program Hotel Hell, Gordon Ramsey visits Cambridge Hotel and reveals the shoddy quality of the apple pie à la mode made there today. Very entertaining and interesting. The hotel has since been foreclosed and was to be auctioned in June, 2012. (Refs: Post-Star, Times-Union) David Spector (user/talk) 17:00, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Although, to be fair, the show portrayed the post-makeover apple pie a la mode as being positively received.

About the hotel's closing: There's also this Albany Times Union article: http://www.timesunion.com/local/article/Even-Gordon-Ramsay-can-t-save-Cambridge-Hotel-3633805.php "Even Gordon Ramsay can't save Cambridge Hotel" By Steve Barnes Thursday, June 14, 2012 --Tenebrae (talk) 18:35, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Name story

Is there a more reliable source for this? The article links to a cooking website and a travel guide. They could just be repeating urban legend. Vividonset2 (talk) 23:24, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

See above thread for more details. Urban legend or not, Wikipedia does not judge, only that it has been covered by sources.Camelbinky (talk) 00:49, 10 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's factually untrue. Quality of sources definitely plays a part in the composition of an article, see Wikipedia:Verifiability#Questionable_sources. This article is taking a single source (Moon New York State) and quoting it as fact, when it may be presented as tongue in cheek in the original publication. We should either add more sources, or qualify the statements present in this article. Geoff (talk) 04:55, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
