Dive Brief:
Residential hospitality operator Mint House, which aims to offer travelers the “comfort of home and the convenience and service of a hotel,” opened an apartment-style hospitality property in Madison, Wisconsin, the operator announced in a Thursday release obtained by Hotel Dive. 
The Dylin offers 55 units, ranging from studios to a seven-bedroom home, all of which are equipped with a full kitchen, an in-room washer and dryer and spacious living areas, per the release. Amenities at the “aparthotel” include meeting spaces and a fitness center, Mint House detailed. 
The property, in a desirable college-town market, represents Mint House’s first opening after its acquisition of Austin, Texas-based Locale last month. The operator plans to open additional properties this spring as it fortifies its presence in the rapidly expanding apartment-style accommodations space, CEO Christian Lee shared with Hotel Dive.
