The Del Mar Motel in Boron still stands with its marquee out front advertising its services.
The Torches Motel is another of the fine Route 66 establishments still located in California. This one, in Barstow, still features its classic motel marquee. Topper Motel The Topper Motel in Afton features a standard motel sign that looks like it could have neon set in it.
This old faded sign sits outside the Welcome Traveler Motel in the old railroad town of Barstow, CA. This place is worth a visit, especially with color TV.
Traveling along Route 66 through the various states will take you to numerous towns with motels proudly proclaiming its Route 66 heritage, whether deserved or not. Here's one called the 66 Motel.
Sometimes the dryness of the old road is best displayed in black and white. Here, the Sage Motel points its arrow at a forlorn lodging joint, recollecting wistfully its heyday prior to the interstate.
After its $2 million restoration, this resort is now known as the Caliente Tropics. See more of this tiki styled treasure at Roadside Peek's Spotlight on the Caliente Tropics Resort.
Another remnant of the old Travel Lodge signage era is the Budget Inn Motel in Palm Desert.
An old classic burned out motel. That's the Sundowner Motel near the Salton Sea. Although this motel joint no longer takes in travelers, the sign still reflects an era that once was. See more of the Sundowner Motel at Roadside Peek's Spotlight on the Sundowner Motel.
