Scene
Pretty manicured lawn with patio seating
The Blue Sky Hotel has a cute garden front lawn. Colorful flowers flank the walkway up to the entrance while manicured hedges form the perimeter and round topiary trees add an element of whimsy. A patio with rattan couches, chairs, and tables provides a spot for relaxing outdoors. Besides the odd pastel plaid wallpaper on one wall, the lobby has sparse decor. Floor-to-ceiling windows let in sunlight, and a sofa and a few dark wood tables with black leather chairs offer a spot for guests to sit and watch the TV mounted on the wall. There’s a sleek bar area with wooden barstools and lots of natural light where guests can grab a drink.
