An Eclectic City Oasis

 
 

Situated in the Central Business District within an easy walk of OTR, The Urban Abode is a contemporary guesthouse with quirky and stylish boutique short-term rentals for anniversaries, staycations, and romantic getaways.

Our three artfully furnished apartments are each a unique, thoughtfully designed pied-à-terre with bespoke furnishings and original contemporary art.

The Garden Flat
