Daniel Will Always Be My Favorite Baldwin

Found on courttv.com (via defamer):
Daniel Baldwin, the second-oldest member of the Baldwin acting dynasty, was arrested Saturday on drug charges at a Southern California hotel, Court TV's Hollywood Heat has learned.

Responding to a complaint about loud noise coming from a room at the Ocean Park Inn, Santa Monica police say they found Baldwin, 45, with a drug pipe in his hands and another man, Winston Anthony Hunter, 52, hiding in the bathroom. There was also a "small amount of cocaine," in the $75 a night room, according to Lt. Frank Fabrega of the Santa Monica Police Department. When questioned by the officers, both men admitted to being high on illegal drugs and were arrested for possession of cocaine, possession of narcotic paraphernalia and being under the influence of narcotics, Lt. Fabrega said.
...
The arrest is another sad chapter in Daniel Baldwin's life. In 1998, Baldwin was found running naked, high on crack-cocaine, through New York's swanky Plaza Hotel. Cops had been called after receiving complaints that Baldwin was watching pornographic films at an extremely high volume.
While I’m a fan of the TV show, Homicide: Life on the Street, the real reason Daniel will always be favorite Baldwin is that he played the bad guy in Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man.

However, that underrated gem of a film is not what I want to discuss. You see, the site of Baldwin’s arrest, the Ocean Park Inn, is mere blocks from my workplace (and by “mere” I mean a dozen) yet I have never heard of it. I know the Ocean Park Hotel and the Ocean Park Café, yet where was this mysterious Inn?

After some research, I found this review of the Ocean Park Inn on tripadvisor.com:
This hotel is for those who are desperate. If you need a cheap place to stay while you are waiting/looking for a more permanent home...this place will do. They offer a weekly rate of $250+tax, which you can't beat around west la. However, you get less than what you pay for still. I strongly advise you not to stay here for a vacation.

On our first day of arrival, we were told that it is a "self-service" kind of place. There is no maid service for the bedrooms. The communal bathrooms are the cleanest places in the hotel (cleaned daily). The bedrooms are not for those with weak stomachs. I advise bringing your own cleaners and definitely a can of lysol. I'm pretty sure there was some vomit on our wall from the people before us. The carpet was not clean, I threw a blanket on the floor. There is a cable tv, a fridge, and you have DSL access in the rooms. There is a communal laundry room with two computers w/free internet access, some overpriced vending machines, and an omnipresent older guy looking at porn.
I can’t help but wonder if the Daniel Baldwin and the omnipresent older guy looking at “that stuff I won’t talk about until Monday” happen to be the same guy.
