A Bangor hotel will continue to serve as a homeless shelter for the foreseeable future as the COVID-19 pandemic persists, with its ability to house dozens of people keeping many without homes out of the city’s woods and parks. The Ramada Inn on Odlin Road has served exclusively as a shelter since September, when Penobscot Community Health Care began running it as an extension of its Hope House shelter under a contract with the Maine State Housing Authority.
