This wacky hotel less than five hours away from the Twin Cities lets you sleep in a hot air balloon basket surrounded by old electronics, an igloo, a forest, and other themed scenes that I can't decide are too weird or totally cool and unique.
The Don Q Inn is just a four-and-a-half-hour drive away from the Twin Cities in Dodgeville, Wisconsin. It has suites with unusual furnishings like hot air balloon basket and spaceship beds.
People who've stayed there seem to have chosen the Don Q Inn because it's such an oddity. One woman compared it to the Rainforest Cafe, and another said staying there was the best impulse staycation.
