A fun city-chic rendition for its wallpaper by a local artist and a bespoke carpet pattern designed in keeping with its visual language.

    Guestrooms have an open layout with an effortless look and feel to achieve airiness. The clean lines of metal rod fixtures are softened with warm toned oak wood flooring and the use of muted olive-green subway tiles define the bathroom to its own charm. Simultaneously, with a cozy palette of wood veneer and textured drapery delivers to guests a restful haven.
