stylish lobby, where guests are greeted by a decorative front desk topped with shiny, pink vases with fresh flowers. The space has floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the street and curvy, retro-inspired armchairs and couches in beiges and browns that match the rest of the coffee-hued decor. The lobby bar features a collection of the same cream-colored funky seating, with a dark mirrored ceiling and a sleek bar bedecked in swirly patterns and more fresh flowers providing a burst of pink to the neutral hues. There's also a charming courtyard patio full of lush greenery, a small pond with bright koi fish, and a collection of cool metal chairs flanking small square tables.
