Certainly among them, PAUL. But we have the first true motel in the U.S. out here in San Luis Obispo. Arthur Heineman opened his Motor Hotel at 2223 Monterrey Street, on December 12, 1925. Tourism forever changed when Art quickly condensed his title to "motel". Only its bell tower facade and a sign are left to see. All this off the top of my head, of course.

"The Hamilton Hotel and Garage" does that make it one of the first "motels"?
