Seminole Point Lodge, Sunapee, New Hampshire

Seminole Point Lodge, Sunapee, New Hampshire
Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: MOTEL, HOTEL, TENT, OR ANY SORT OF BUILDING OR STRUCTURE USED FOR OVERNIGHT ACCOMMODATIONS WHILE TRAVELING.
My husband's grandfather co-owned a house on Lake Sunapee, N.H. with two family friends in the 1940s - 1960s, so they would not have stayed here (as it was close by) - but they did own this postcard!
This is an interior shot of the motel - and typical of a lobby in the 1950s/60s, although the piano and stonework are a little fancier than many motels.

The back of the card reads:
The focal point of our guests is the spacious lounge - with it's true New England warmth and welcome.
[Shouldn't that be "for" our guests?]

Where's the t.v.??? :) When I first looked at the photo I thought it was contemporary. I believe "of" is correct but "for" would more commonly be used and considered acceptable.

I'm interested in what the consensus will be.
