Tea Room Review
      I had the best time at the Horton Grand! Once I got over the absolute culture shock of feeling I was back in the 1880's, I settled into the cozy quaint Victorian surroundings and just basked in all its glory. The tea service was top-notch and the servers sweet and unassuming. Even parking was a treat in the historic Gaslamp disctrict. I was allowed to stay as long as I desired and since I had a book, I lingered, lounged and loved the whole experience.
