Beck's Motor Lodge, established in 1958 in San Francisco's Castro neighborhood, has been a beacon for the LGBTQ+ community for over six decades. Owner Brittney Beck shares her family’s legacy in the hotel, highlighting its diversity and welcoming atmosphere. After taking ownership in 2010, she rejuvenated the property while honoring its history, including its iconic sign. The lodge was recognized as a 'legacy business' in 2017, reflecting its significant place in the community and its commitment to inclusivity.
We're happy to have all sorts of different people, it makes the job fun. It makes our neighborhood diverse, it makes coming to this neighborhood more exciting than just seeing the same thing over and over again.
I think it would be great for the family to get back into this industry. I really took the opportunity, I said, 'hey it has my last name on it, I want to be represented well.'
