Amenities & Experiences

Everything around the room that makes the house work.

Included · Shared Bathroom

Black, white & deliberately quiet.

The Crystal Room and Mask Room share a full bathroom designed as a visual counterbalance to the color-rich bedrooms. Marble-patterned tile, matte black fixtures and clean lines frame both a freestanding full tub and a separate stand-up shower.

The shower includes an overhead rainfall-style fixture and handheld shower head. A lighted mirror, vanity and storage complete the space.

Included · Kitchen & Dining

Designed by someone who has worked the other side of the pass.

The shared guest kitchen continues the black-and-white palette with red accents. It was designed by owner Derek Sargent, drawing on extensive restaurant and bar-management experience.

Guests may bring and prepare their own food and beverages. The kitchen includes a five-piece dinnerware service for eight, specialty drink glassware, cookware, flatware and full-size appliances. A pull-out dining table seats four.

Food and beverages are also available for additional purchase.
