A Mid-Century Modern Room
Hotel Broadview
Wichita, KS
1950's or 1960's
(View of living room in a suite)
Actually, as vintage motel rooms go, this isn't too bad. It's a decent example of mid-century modern decor. Observe the Danish-inspired wood furniture, dark wood paneled walls, and a TV on slender legs (as opposed to being enclosed in a bulky console). The best feature of the room are these metallic cone wall lamps on the right side of the room.
I checked Google to find what happened to this hotel. It appears that the hotel is still there, currently owned by Drury Inns. Based on the photos from the site, the rooms have been updated, though they certainly are somewhat bland compared to the postcard image above.
