Fire of unknown origin swept through the owner’s suite of the Michel Hotel early Wednesday morning causing undisclosed damage to rooms and to the dining room below.
Owner Paul Isakson, who was on the scene at the time of the blaze, which broke out at 1.10 a.m. refused comment on any phase of the fire.
Guests were roused from their sleep, and some spent a miserably cold night sleeping in cars outside the building which recently underwent extensive renovation.
