Description
In the summer of 2013, brothers Jim and Don Gibson purchased a classic but dirty piece of Reno history, the 43 room Morris Hotel. In 2008, Jim "Jungle Jim" Gibson joined the Burning Man community and was profoundly moved and changed by the experience. Jim, 2011 Temple of Transition project lead Chris "Kiwi" Hankins, Vision (Alon Bar) and a crew of amazing Burners from around the world have transformed the hotel into a giant piece of permanent Burner art and it is truly changing the world. It has space for 19 live-in artists, 13 Burner designed hotel rooms, indoor and outdoor performance venues, and is just plain amazing! It is like living the best part of the Playa all year, where we live by the 10 principles every day. We hope you will come visit and see for yourself, and like everyone else, leave saying, OMG, this is simply the best spot ever, it's like being at Burning Man! We are a Membership facility, with membership dues allowing almost all of our events to be free, we can offer free rooms for artists from anywhere in the world in our Artist Residency program, and do community outreach work almost every day.

General Info
In mid 2014, the City of Reno allowed us to be categorized as a private club, and not a public hotel. This allows us so much freedom to do our crazy and wonderful things, and because this place was build by burners, it is for burners. Virtually everything we do here is free for members, and we do events every week, let the community use our space, and do community Outreach programs like feeding 150 homeless people 4 nights a week, give away hundreds of coats every week, charity fundraisers, and so many other wonderful things. We have change the face of 4th St from one of the least desirable parts of town to a pretty nice, far safer place by being involved. We spread the word to countless people every day about how good, talented, and giving Burners really are. If you would like to become a member, it is as little as $5/Mo and it really helps. Visit our web site, www.morrisburnerhotel.com and you find lots of other gerat information. Thank You!Reviews for Morris Burner Hostel
