Do memories of perusing the aisles at your local Blockbuster bring back happy feelings of nostalgia? For a very limited time only you can now stay at the world’s last remaining Blockbuster courtesy of Airbnb – but there’s a catch!

Movie lovers can now request to stay at the world’s last Blockbuster store in Bend, Oregon starting August 17, Variety reports. Guests may book a one-night stay from September 18 – 20 for only $4 – but – they have to be a resident of Deschutes County.
Marketed as “End of Summer Sleepover at the Last Blockbuster” by owner Sandi Harding, the Blockbuster has been revamped to look like a ‘90s living room complete with a pull-out couch, bean bags and an array of complimentary butter popcorn, candy and ‘new-release’ ‘90s movies!

“Hey Deschutes County residents! Dust off those membership cards for a sleepover inside the world’s last Blockbuster,” the Airbnb listing read. “When you call dibs on this stay, you’re booking a night back in the 90s, but this time you won’t have to beg your parents to rent the latest horror flick — we’ll give you the keys to the entire store!”

“And remember, the store is all yours for the night! So let loose, blast the boombox and wear your favorite ‘90s denim so that you feel right at home in another era.”

“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,” Harding shares “Over the past few months, we’ve been missing the regular visits from friends, neighbors and tourists from around the world. So, we’re opening our store to three quarantine pods of Deschutes County guests for a socially-distanced movie night, just like those of decades past!”
