Two staircases come down from the breezeway onto either side of an outdoor swimming pool. There is a sign near the street that reads, "The Capri Motor Motel" in white letters on a blue and red background. A neon yellow arrowhead is pointing toward the office. Two cars are parked in the parking lot of the motor hotel. Handwriting on the back reads "Aileen's friends own this. 35 rooms - $12-$14. Saw this Aug. 9, 1961".
