History
In 1958, Vagabond Motor Hotels, Inc, a California corporation, opened its first location in California. From the outset, Vagabond Inn was geared towards the value-conscious leisure and business traveler.
In order to offer business travelers in urban markets upgrades and more amenities, the Vagabond Inn Executive tier was launched. Vagabond Inn Executive locations typically feature upgraded rooms with more amenities, exercise rooms, and all offer free expanded continental breakfast.
In 1994, Vagabond Motor Hotel, Inc. and Imperial Hotel Corp. merged and branded the combined group of motels with the Vagabond Inn name. The motto of the Vagabond Inn chain is “Great value. Friendly people.”

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship. Art history has attained only a fraction of the conceptual sophistication of literary criticism.... Drunk with self-love, criticism has hugely overestimated the centrality of language to western culture. It has failed to see the electrifying sign language of images.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.”
—Henry James (1843–1916)
“Racism is an ism to which everyone in the world today is exposed; for or against, we must take sides. And the history of the future will differ according to the decision which we make.”
—Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)
