“This feels more like borrowing a friend's stylish mansion than checking into a hotel, where the billiard room in the basement sets a playfully sophisticated tone, and you may find yourself lingering longer than planned; I think the staff shines, happy to share local dining tips or stories about the property's history. It strikes me as a remarkably intimate experience, pairing period charm with modern comforts.”
