Description
Antique advertising postcard
Photochrome era
Circa 1960s
Tahoe Foto Co.
TINY'S MOTEL
850 North Virginia Street
Reno Nevada
"Walking distance to clubs. Phones and TV in every room, air conditioned. 41 units, heated pool."
The word motel was coined in California in 1925, as a portmanteau contraction of "motor hotel".
Motels are designed to accommodate motorists, and in many cases of single-level motor lodges, have parking spaces placed directly outside each tenant's room.
As large highway systems began to be developed in the 1920s, long-distance road journeys became more common, and the need for inexpensive, easily accessible overnight accommodation sites close to the main routes led to the growth of the motor lodge concept.
