This hotel is definitely unique. If you like Wes Anderson movies, the opulent lobby will deliver. But if you'd prefer not to see every inch of yourself while showering or using the toilet, look elsewhere as the fully mirrored bathroom was an experience. I enjoy quirky places, but this one leaned into the bizarre. Our room was a tiny, triangle-shaped wedge at the end of a corridor, painted bright yellow featuring a built-in wardrobe resembling a high school theater prop. The old-school key came with a large leather-fringed key fob, and the flimsy door felt like a laminate kitchen cabinet. There were three lamps, none of which worked. Only the chandelier lit the room, giving it haunted mansion vibes. The carpet was well-padded but worn; more '70s basement than boutique hotel. Ventilation was poor; no AC (which we knew), no bathroom exhaust, and just one awkward corner window. The bathroom's floor-to-ceiling mirrors were a brutal reminder of too much schnitzel. The 3x3 ft shower, with a notch in the door for the sink, made shaving impossible. Staff was kind but unhelpful when we asked if we could get a pastry or anything as we’d have to leave just 30 minutes before breakfast’s start, so we left hungry. The lobby and courtyard are nice, and the location is good, but room quality varies wildly. Others in our party had a suite that looked like Versailles and even the concierge apologized upon check in at the disparity of rooms he had to offer. At least it provides a good story!
