    We were there for brunch but you don't really go here for the food (which wasn't bad). You go for the experience of seeing and riding the Mansion. That was interesting enough to warrant a thumbs up.

    The most awesome part is finding the 70-plus secret doors that H.H. installed. Her children are still looking for 22 of them. I've found only eight... so just 62 more to go! Read more

    Originally a trio of red brick rowhouses, current owner H.H. Leonards bought the property in 1980 and combined the homes into a 30,000-square-foot museum/hotel/event space/maze of sensory overload. Read more

    Hard to describe this wild, funhouse of kitsch. It's like a high end pawn shop with cool history.

    I've shot a few special events here. The owners are great people and the uber-collection of guitars & music memorabilia will melt your face. Love the O.

    A guitar signed by Bruce Springsteen & E Street Band... Yup we have that. Look for it next time you visit!

    We're intrigued: The Mansion on O Street features 20,000 books, dozens of secret passageways, and a collection of John Lennon's guitars.

    There’s so much to look at—the Mansion is crammed with antiques and curiosities, almost all donated by former guests—you won’t know what to take in first.

    The afternoon tea is a rip off. Make sure you eat something substantial (besides sweets)...no tea sandwiches.
