I don't know how you like to travel, but when my wife and I are going to see friends and family and need to stay at a hotel, we usually go on a website or app that will give us the best deal possible on a room for the night.

Most of the time, the places are nice and the price is reasonable. But there's something so cool about getting to spend the night at a fancy hotel

I'll never forget when I interviewed for a job in Evansville, Indiana. The company put me up in a hotel that was the nicest I'd seen in life.

The shower has so many jets on the walls that I felt like a car in a carwash. I had water blasting me in every direction, and not to overshare, but I think it's the cleanest I've been in my entire life.

Now I don't remember how much that room was per night, but It's safe to assume that it was way too expensive for me.

Recently, I saw that a Michigan hotel was named as the most unique in state.

I've seen hotel in pictures and videos and would love to stay for a night, but after checking out the prices I don't think I could afford it.

I'm talking about the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island.

This is what Thrillist said about the Grand Hotel;

"Despite the fact that poor Detroit is the punchline to everyone’s favorite "miserable city" joke, Michigan as a state is beautiful. In summer, anyway. Which is why this 386-room mega-resort where no two rooms are the same is only open from May to October. Accessible by ferry on an island where the preferred mode of transport is horse-drawn carriage (in fact, cars are prohibited), the Grand Hotel offers five-course meals served on the world’s largest front porch. The hotel is currently closed for the season but reopens in April 2025."
