We were a bit concerned when we drove up to the property because it is very much an inner city/downtown location but Megan and Jasper have done a fantastic job of creating a little walled oasis of peace in that location. The location is very central so we parked the car and were able to walk to various sites. The Lotus is a lovely place to stay. The rooms are nicely decorated, the beds are comfortable and the entire place is spotless. Megan and Jasper were great hosts, available and helpful and my son loved the opportunity to play with the family cats.
