Last Blockbuster Video store to be rented on Airbnb for $4/night
Bend, Oregon is home to the last Blockbuster Video store on the planet. Well, now it's been set up as an nineties-themed Airbnb rental. In September, for three one-night sleepovers, the room will be available for $4/night. Don't pull out your acid-washed jeans just yet though, this offer is open only to Deschutes County residents.
Read the restWhen you call dibs on this stay, youre booking a night back in the 90s, but this time you wont have to beg your parents to rent the latest horror flickwell give you the keys to the entire store!
On 8/17 at 1PM PT, were inviting movie lovers from the area to request to book one of these three, one-night stays that will take place on 9/18, 9/19 and 9/20 for up to four people.
...As the last standing location in the world, our BLOCKBUSTER store is an ode to movie magic, simpler times and the sense of community that could once be found in BLOCKBUSTER locations around the world. Over the past few months, weve been missing the regular visits from friends, neighbors and tourists from around the world. So, were opening our store to three quarantine pods of Deschutes County guests for a socially-distanced movie night, just like those of decades past!
Whether you want to stay up until sunrise or pass out on the couch, weve created the perfect space complete with a pull-out couch, bean bags and pillows for you to cozy up with new releases from the 90s. Crack open a two-liter of Pepsi before locking into a video game, charting your future in a game of MASH, or watching movie after movie.
