Whether you're traveling as a couple, family, or small group, space easily adapts to your needs.

🐾 Traveling with your pup? We’re happy to welcome well-behaved dogs at The Hive! A $15 per pet, per stay (limit 2) helps us cover the extra cleaning needed to keep the space fresh, cozy, and guest-ready for everyone. We just ask that pets are house-trained, kept off furniture (or covered), and not left unattended unless kenneled.
