Retro motel with pool parties, live music, and a clothing-optional pool
"The Drifter is party central, particularly on the weekends — expect loud music, crowds, and delicious frozen drinks. The Drifter doesn’t have a kitchen, but food vendors set up shop most days, particularly on weekends, serving tacos, oysters, and more. Annual memberships are $400, but two-hour day passes start at $15. Then there are passes for weekend parties, like for Pride in June or evening DJ sessions." - Beth D’Addono

"The Drifter Hotel doesn’t have a kitchen, but it does have access to the Hong Kong Market on the Westbank. That’s where the bar staff goes and collects a variety of authentic, high-end instant soups with input from the Hong Kong Market staff. At the hotel, they add hot water and spruce it up with a couple of fresh ingredients like basil or jalapeno and sell it to the pool party clientele for 7 bucks." - Eater Staff
