The Mexican-Theme restaurant, Quixot, contains a decrected chapel from Mexico, which was saved from destruction, taken to disabled and San Diego.
The additional lounge provided in dark and light plaster, to play good and bad themes, were associated with the chapel.
Anger said, “Chapel was conceived parallel to a private den in the coin (deep side of the coin), both, good and bad balanced between the balanced residues between the balanced church,” Anger said.
Finally, the hotel includes another bar with an attached bowling street. This cavereas space has a roof in the single-ball plaster cast. The overall design of this place was informed by the personal bowling street of American industrialist Henry Frik.
