Great hostel!
The Barn had a wonderful atmosphere! Beautiful lobby and common areas. The kitchen was fully stocked and quite large with a beautiful view through the large window. We would definitely stay here again if in the area!

The Barn was a great place to stay along our trip, my friend and I shared a double bed in a shared room, only complaint was how hot it got on the top bunk for both of us, otherwise it was not a bad place to stay!
They also have a bar that is open until 11pm and serves a small selection of snacks, like chicken tenders and jalapeño poppers that were perfect when we were out all day and restaurants were closed by the time we got back to town around 10pm

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The modern design stood out right away—clean lines, stylish decor, and a thoughtfully designed space that felt both welcoming and functional. Everything from the lobby to the room had a sleek, contemporary vibe that made the experience feel a bit more special. Would definitely stay here again!
