☆ZRAEL's dorm is pseudo-Victorian Gothic. Parquet wood floors make the repeated shape of pentacles down halls and gas lamp sconces flicker against darkly patterned wallpaper. The table is a heavy wood banquet table, each chair around it a tufted armchair. The beds in each individual bedroom are four-poster beds, hanging with heavy velvet drapes.
The walls end not with a finished ceiling but instead with a few bare wooden flying buttresses, holding up nothing at all — the dorm opens to the sky above. No matter the time of day, it is always night, and the full moon illuminates the dorm with a soft light. The constellations change with the time of year (with time running too fast to correspond to your IC time in Tokyo-F). It doesn't seem to matter that ✩ZRAEL's dorm isn't on the top floor.
The floor of the main room is made entirely of thick glass set atop a steel lattice, which offers a view of the vast, dark ocean which lies beneath. The surface glows softly in the light of the moon, but beyond a certain depth there’s only darkness visible. In the corner of the room is a hatch that allows access to this sea. As with the moon, it doesn’t seem to matter that ✩ZRAEL's dorm has several other floors below it. This sea is populated with a variety of demonic sharks - their corruptions mirror the wildlife that exists in Tokyo-F as a whole. Each species of shark is only as aggressive as its non-demonic counterpart, so swimming is generally safe if one is careful. However - a there is a pentacle above the hatch that leads into the sea: using Nightmare Vision on it (or just activating the relevant ☆ZRAEL-only phone app) allows one to choose to cause it to glow either red or blue. A blue pentacle will make all sharks entirely docile unless harmed, but a red pentacle will cause the sea to turn blood red and the sharks within to become frenzied, attacking any non-shark they see within the sea.
Opposite the sea hatch, a pipe organ rests against two walls, a grand parabola of pipes and excess. It squats just short of scraping the buttresses, golden devils adorning the alcoves of the thing, standing proudly atop pipes with spears held aloft and scaling the sides with spears held in their teeth.
Each bedroom in ☆ZRAEL’s dorm has a miniature version of their main balcony -- stone balcony with pentacle-laden iron railing, complete with the same stone columns though atop them is only a simple overhang roof, though it still accomplishes the job of shielding the occupants from the sunlight. All rooms are soundproofed.
They all come with a raised firepit, surrounded by comfortably cushioned, heart-patterned cast iron chairs. A gloomy looking doghouse occupies a corner of each balcony.
Each balcony offers the same view as the main balcony, though unliked the main balcony they are not accessible from outside of the hotel.

The walls end not with a finished ceiling but instead with a few bare wooden flying buttresses, holding up nothing at all — the dorm opens to the sky above.
