Why we recommend it

Details of a room can make or break any hotel guest’s stay. The rooms are filled with 10 foot longs desks, bar/coffee areas, illuminating night-stands, and luggage benches with built in drawers.

Traveling with electronic gadgets? Don’t worry, they’ve thought of this too with built-in outlets everywhere. Here’s one of our favorite design details here.

The rooms also feature custom murals created by local photographers, customer furniture built from the community and energy efficient lighting solutions assembled by local vendors.

This brings us to our next favorite design detail, sustainability.

The rooms are eco-friendly. From duvets that are made of recycled water bottles to the privacy shades that are made from recycled products, the hotel places a big importance on being environmentally friendly.
