the end of 2005, the Motor Lodge had been repatriated. Even as
it retained its Gate Lodge nearly intact, and as good as it seemed
to have been that it became a HoJo again, the facility will most
certainly cease to exist.
2004

fixtures and furnishings were needed, it was a shame that the
second vanity and other classic HoJo's features were removed.
At

Johnson's mattress was still in use - - you never know what you
might find if you pull up the sheets! |
