San Antonio's original 1948 motor lodge has been revamped by the team behind The Drifter and Hotel Saint Vincent in New Orleans: the quirky spirit is intact, but Le Labo toiletries, Parachute linens, and a pool that the neighbourhood gathers around have been added. Mid-century bones, proper craft cocktails at the bar, and that very specific Texas energy. A fun and well-executed stay.
