When Hu Lei arrived at the Demesne Hotel, she could not help looking around in awe. Though the property was built in the city, it was like a sky-reaching castle growing out of untouched lands once you passed the towering gates. Tall trees grew on the property, giving the land an Eden ambiance. Moreover, the manicured trees did not give the feeling of a scary forest, but rather quiet woods where elves frolic. She wondered wistfully what the place looked like in the bright light of day.
At the end of the driveway, a large castle reminiscent of old western palaces was revealed. While the architectural style had an ancient feel, the modern materials and decorative design gave it a fresh feeling. There was no the usual gloom-and-doom associated with old castles.
