Looks like a nice and welcoming place!

Looks like a stack of books. Pick one and sit down on the leather seat why don't you.

A place with personality and character, that red wall changes all and the ceiling is not common. Great!!

It's a homy place. Ya, books will do that.

A place with personality indeed! I, too, love the books! Terrific capture for the day as always, JM! You do have some incredible places in your world!!

A very visually appealing spot JM, oh la! I hope no one brushes too close to the precariously balanced stack of sbooks!!

Virginia said...

I have books stacked in my home but not all higgledy piggledy like that. GREAT idea. Oh and love that Lisbon Rouge JM!

Look at that ceiling, stunning. I have a feeling that stack of books and wine boxes is an art installation - looks interesting.

Wayne said...

That red is awesome! It's subdued against the stone, but really pops against the white.

Kay said...

This certainly doesn't fit my image of a hostel! It looks tres chic. I love the figures on the arched doorways and the ceiling is beautiful. If those books aren't an installation I pity the poor person who decides that one on the bottom is a must-read.

An elegant hostel!

Merisi said...

Love that stack of books, and that they are on top of wooden wine cases seems fitting. I wonder if this is part of a larger art installation.

Jack said...

That is beautiful! A marvelous rich red color on the wall, stately light fixture and cool black and white tiled flooring.

Randy said...

So lovely. I really like that red wall.

Joan Elizabeth said...

I always think red walls are very brave but it looks great with the black and white floor.

Lowell said...

I'm wondering if that stack of books is a sculpture of some kind... :-) Doesn't look too secure.

But the hostel/suites appears very welcoming and a fun place to stay.

This place looks expensive!

JM, if you'll send «Louis» your e-mail address, he'll send you more photos of the Packard Darrin he showed in Weekend Reflections. His e-mail address is in his profile.

Very inviting place. Those books will make it hard for me to leave that place. Very nice photo.
