Like several other Garden State locations, the Restaurant was built long before the Motor Lodge concept was even conceived of. Most likely the Colonial style Restaurant was converted into a Ground Round in the early 1980s.

Unfortunately the Stucco-Gestapo paid the Bordentown Motor Lodge a visit. Certainly by Bob's visit the former ML, converted to an Econo Lodge, lacked much character or curb appeal--it is UGLY.

Bob recalled that this Motor Lodge at Bordentown was possibly his first HoJo's lodging experience back in 1966!
