Description:
I just got this oversized postcard from the Tropics Inn located in Reno, Nevada.

Not much in the way of a TIPSY factor, but it had a great sign with poly-pop flair and tiki torches. The architecture of the porte cochere is great with the exposed beams and rock walls,

There were a lot of nice little features added to the standard motel building.

The building is still there as the Crest Inn (no sign), but is being dwarfed by a new high-rise motel structure next door.
