Thank you Midwest Living for naming us the "Best New Hotel" in your Spring 2023 awards issue!

"Vintage roadside motels are having a moment. Just look at South Wind Motel in Columbus' charming German Village. A slick renovation has breathed new life into the 1959 relic, with retro-chic rooms that feature locally roasted coffee and walnut furniture custom made in Ohio. And let's hear it for their sustainability efforts: solar panels, less-waste bath products and EV charging stations."

Congratulations to all the other winners: https://www.midwestliving.com/travel/best-of-the-midwest-awards-2023/
