The hype

Cribs on Main
$135-250/ night
Book this if You're a design-obsessed germaphobe who wants a Manhattan-style loft in the middle of Prince Edward County without talking to a single human.
Why People Love It
- Black-light certified cleanliness (yes, really)
- Invisible service with seamless keypad entry
- Heated bathroom floors and massive walk-in showers
Quick Take: It’s less of a hotel and more like borrowing a wealthy friend's impeccably clean pied-à-terre above a bookstore.
Reviewed by @travellpartners: I had to laugh at my husband stuck in the corner, but seriously, this suite at Cribs on Main is stunning. The electric fireplace and that massive double vanity made our stay in Picton so comfortable. Definitely spacious enough for two!

Room Genie

5 things to know before you go
💡The 'Black-Light Certified' cleaning promise is a real marketing claim they make (and seemingly uphold).
💡The bathroom floors are heated, which is a game-changer in Canadian winters.
💡There is zero luggage storage if you arrive early — your car is your locker.
💡The 'minibar' is often just a few snacks and drinks, not a full hotel spread.
💡You might get multiple emails with different codes (building vs. room), so screenshot them before you arrive.
