Just 2 miles
west of downtown, this stylish 1940s bungalow hotel is a fabulously low-key antidote to
Dallas' flashier digs, with a touch of mid-century modern design and more than its share
of soul. The garden rooms - with soaking tubs, Moroccan-blue tile work, kilim rugs and
some city views - are tops.
