A set of rooms on the first floor can be rented out by speaking to the owner. After renting them, these rooms will become the new camp location while anywhere in the [[Lower City]] or [[Lower City Sewers]]. [[Alan Alyth]] normally charges 200 gold for the rental, but passing a Persuasion check allows the party to commandeer the entire penthouse suite for free.

==Notes==
* The tabletop D&D adventure ''Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus'' includes a description of the Elfsong Tavern, and explains the origin of its name: the tavern is haunted by the spirit of a long-dead female Elf who occasionally serenades the patrons. This is likely the voice heard singing ''Song of Balduran'' in the "camp" area upstairs.
* The lyrics of the song, sung by [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm15155521/ Mariya Anastasova] , which hint at the plot of ''Baldur's Gate 3'' and the ultimate fate of [[Balduran]], can be found in [[The Elf Song|a book]] in a desk in the rented rooms upstairs.
* When approaching Stelmane's room on the upper floor, [[The Emperor]] will have the following ambient commentary: ''"Stelmane's parlour - a place to receive clients and informants. I wonder if it's as I remember it."''
