They're missing the opportunity to advertise it as a fountain of youth. If I stayed there I would feel fifty years younger, like I was back in my 20s again, because it has a 1960s to 70s vibe.

South of the Border has been run down for many years. But they don't seem to be affected much by the pandemic. Went by there 4 times in the past month and still the same as last year.
