Kurzfassung: A visually spectacular historic renovation that nickel-and-dimes you with a $49 valet fee and a shocking $25 charge just to have a coffee maker in your room.
Bewertet von @Kelsey.e.twyman: I stayed here for a weekend getaway and was obsessed with the design. The room felt so moody and romantic, especially with that vintage wallpaper. My favorite part was definitely the bathroom—those green tiles are stunning. It’s the perfect spot if you love unique aesthetics.
