The hype

The design, cleanliness, and on-site Apres snack bar make this feel like a luxury boutique hotel rather than a roadside motel.

Reality check

It's a bit pricey for the size of the rooms, and the outdoor parking area can get very icy in the winter.

  • You appreciate boho-chic aesthetics and Malin + Goetz bath products
  • You want to eat fresh oysters and drink craft cocktails steps from your bed
  • You love a communal courtyard vibe with fire pits and bocce ball
