While the room itself was disappointing since it had been so poorly "remodeled," the bathroom nearly made up for it. Except for the lack of its glass shower door, the bathroom was a terrific example of how HoJo's bathrooms had once been.

Above & Below: The plumbing fixtures dated from 1960 -- the Motor Lodge's opening! Quite intuitive to use and an elegantly simple design, the sink's faucet was operated by manipulating the lever. Although only used in a few circa 1960s Motor Lodges the fixture type can be seen in an image in Howard Johnson's 1961-1962 Motor Lodge directory.
