Location #5

The old San Miguel Motel located at 1350 N Street, just east of the railroad tracks across from where the railroad station used to be. This was originally known as the La Favorita Hotel back in 1895, and became a motel later when the highway came through. The current occupants of the building were kind enough to let me copy an old photograph taken when it was a hotel back around the turn of the century.

A photo taken in the late 1800's when it was the La Favorita Hotel & Restarante.

It's pretty hard to read this old signage. It may have been changed a couple times over the years.
A classic old "office" sign.
View of the south side of the property.
If you squint, you can still see the "San Miguel Motel" lettering that has been painted over.
