Boutique hotel · 570 Lawrence St · Eugene, Oregon
Stay like a Local.
Eleven designed rooms in an old roadside motel we brought back to life, right on the corner of 6th and Lawrence in downtown Eugene. Walk to coffee, climb the butte, then come home to a really good bed.
Guests seem to like it here
Born and raised in Eugene. I designed every room here and made the art on the walls.
Independent, on purpose
Not a chain.
Not even close.
Inspired by local materials and colors, fused with the history of the original roadside motel. When you stay here, you're staying with a family from Eugene.
No corporate parent. What you spend here stays here.
Original Pacific Northwest art and photography in every room.
A small Eugene team answers your texts and knows the town.
Independent shops live right here on the property.

Four ways to stay.
Same great bed, coffee station and tiled step-in shower in all eleven. The art on the wall is different in every one.
