This was yet another motel along Woodward between 12 and 13 Mile Rd. There must have been over a dozen as I have documented. This one follows a similar tale. The heyday was in the 50's and 60's, but even then there were reports of crime as I have shown in the articles below. Eventually the crime became untenable and Royal Oak and the local residents work to close the place down. Many motels in this area met with that fate. I can't even find an old postcard of this place which is unusual but I will keep looking.
