in the George Washington Hotel. The movie's filming received some media attention as Furtney's hotel room set at the George Washington Hotel was mistaken for the scene of a crime. ''New Terminal Hotel'' received a soft release in 2010, but did not receive much reception. Film rights for the movie were later picked up by Image Entertainment and distributed under the name ''Do Not Disturb''. Furtney removed "about 15 minutes" of footage from the film, which he felt strengthened the movie.
