“There's a distinct retro vibe at play here, a reimagining of the classic roadside motel with contemporary touches that mostly land well. I appreciate the outdoor pool area and Airstream bar-a clever touch-but the execution seems inconsistent. It's a fun concept, but I'm not entirely convinced it lives up to its potential for a truly immersive experience.”
