I think I'd rather stay in a room he jammed in, or got laid in.

He died in the Stanhope, which isn't a hotel anymore (it was converted to co-op apartments several years ago). I believe the whole building was gutted, so even if you could get in the door, the room would be gone.

Sorry, sir, the ghost of Charlie Parker is out of town at the moment.
Would the Sid Vicious Suite suffice?

(I think Charlie's room would creep me out a teeny bit)

Well, since the Stanhope ain't around any more, perhaps
you can head on down to the City Morgue and slip one of
the attendants a twenty to let you lie on the slab they
did Parker's autopsy on.

You're a creep.
