At first a dilapidated mansion that neighborhood kids referred to as “the haunted house,” Akwaaba Mansion was extensively renovated into the glorious 1860s Bed and Breakfast – filled with Afrocentric touches and antiques – that it is today.

Boutique hotel near the New York Public Library with a – you guessed it – library theme. Each of its ten floors was created in line with a major category in the Dewey Decimal System, and each room acts as a genre from that category (the Erotic Literature room is Room 800.001!).
