disagree  JamesBarto: An Elks Lodge is not a hotel or inn. It is a private organization, which usually has a bar for its members. Elks Lodge has two meanings: it is either the name of the organization (as in, "he belongs to the Elks Lodge") or the name of the meeting place

Explanation:
An Elks Lodge is not a hotel or inn in any way, shape, or form. It is the name of a fraternal organization in the U.S. It usually has a private bar for its members. Elks Lodge has two meanings: it refers to the organizational itself (as in "he is a member of the Elks Lodge") or it refers to the organization's meeting place (as in, "he went for a drink at the Elks Lodge").
