This vintage motel at one time featured an impressive neon sign on front and a large tiki pole below it.

Although it became a bit run-down, the sign and facade was basically original through at least 1997, if not later.

The motel was eventually remodeled completely and as of 2021 is named America's Best Value Inn & Suites Anaheim Convention Center.

The front lettering of "Samoa Motel" is gone and has been replaced by a diamond checkered pattern.
