Exchange Hotel, Montgomery
The Exchange Hotel in Montgomery, Alabama, in 1909
- ... that the Exchange Hotel, Montgomery, where Confederate president Jefferson Davis was inaugurated, also hosted Ku Klux Klan leaders, politicians, prostitutes, and two US presidents? (Here's some of it.)

The page is long and new enough and is well sourced. No copyvio was observed. The hook is interesting and informative. There's a minor issue though; does anywhere in the page read as if the hotel "hosted" prostitutes? --Mhhossein talk 07:26, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Mhhossein, that's very kind of you but you really don't have to--please save it for someone who needs it more. As for the prostitutes, "hosted", well it has a broad definition, doesn't it. "In those days, the vice squad booked the date, went to the room and paid over money and then flashed the badge". I tweaked the phrasing in the article a little bit and I hope that suffices.
