inn
Traveler's rustic stopover
An inn is an establishment offering lodging and often food to travelers.
The word evokes a historical or rural setting—a roadside stop with rooms upstairs and a tavern below: We stayed at a country inn.
Today inn appears in hotel names to suggest quaint hospitality, though the places may be thoroughly modern.
