Here is a pic of the Islander Post card. This one is from the San Leandro location but also lists the Stockton Location on the back. I'm assuming they all were similar in architecture and interior style.

Judging from the picture I would say that this postcard was made in 1972 or 1973.

I think it's sort of ironic that many new boutique hotels (even Motel 6) are going for that "modern" look lately. The Islander motel is still in Alameda, but I have not checked out the rooms to see if they still look that way (I bet they rent them by the hour :wink:).
