We stayed in the opium den. It was divine. A unique & groovy mansion, with interior plaster work lovingly maintained, With so many rockin', kinky accents your Instagram may melt from the heat. The canopy bed was romantic and very comfortable. The shower room is a very beautiful experience. The terrace affords that rare opportunity to relax in the open air and enjoy a Canada Dry in its native environment. Kimonos and coffee are provided. And Tanya, the Owner, is delightful and you should know more people like her, you know? Your friends are a little boring, frankly
