This is like no place you've ever stayed. It's super quirky and funky – in a good way – from the float collection and full-size boat in the front to the museum-like kitschy decor in the hallways. The breakfast room is worth the price of admission alone. Kitchen, game room, sundeck, backyard and free popcorn are pluses.
