A guest room at the Brass Embassy

So i am working my way towards obtaining "A guest room at the Brass Embassy", and trying to figure out what of the two ways of obtaining it is the better option.
I need an additional pair of eyes on this, since i suspect i am missing some important detail. I started playing only about two weeks ago so its far from unlikely.

Cost: 1250 x  Brilliant Soul
or
Cost: 500 x Brilliant Soul, 100 x  Muscaria Brandy, 1 x  Brass Ring, Connected: Hell 50, an Intimate of Devils 1
I currently have a reliable source of souls that i am using to convert to Brilliant Souls, and i could just keep doing that.
If i were to go for the second option, my Connected: Hell is currently 43, so that is not far off. And im already an Intimate of Devils.
I could buy a Brass Ring if i sold 2000 souls, worth aproximately 80-84 Brilliant Souls.
The Muscarian Brandy would cost 500 Brilliant Souls to trade upp to.
This means the purely material cost of the second option would be worth aproximately 1080 Brilliant Souls.
Asuming my Connected: Hell progress isnt hindered in some way , Option two would be the cheaper way.
Is there something i am missing here? Will the last 6 lvls of Connected: Hell be harder?

For brass rings I would go the Fidgeting Writer way.

Whoops.
In that case you need a Reported Location of a One-Time Prince of Hell + 8 Notability to upgrade. That will cost you 3200 Scraps or selling the location of the Nadir to the Great Game (Not Hell).
Or you could sell your soul and wait for Christmas. As a Shepherd I am obliged to discourage you or some such. Did you know the urchins stopped retrieving souls after being called B______s by some gentlemen on the forum?

Actually there's a couple of fate locked option on the brass embassy card that require an Infernally Diplomatic Privilege.
But it's probably not worth the non-Christmas cost.

So being the POSI that I am, what's the best route for me to get the final 4-room lodging: Brilliant Soul Grind or that with the Brandy, rings, connections and intimacy? And is Thieving of a particular character the best way in doing this (and if yes, which one or ones?) if not, what is the best way of acquiring the resources I need to grind to the end goal for this?
First of all, if you don't have yet a Gang of Hoodlums, get this first (it significantly increases the efficiency of getting Casing...).
I recommend to use Thefts of Particular character for most of what you'll need - Muscaria Brandy and Brilliant Souls. If you don't have a Brass Ring, get a few more bottles of brandy and convert them into rings.
As for the Hell connection: First, buy a Bright Brass Skull and use it to increase your Hell connection to 20. Then, make sure that your Connection level is at least 5 to both the Church and to the Urchins. When the relevant Hell/Church or Hell/Urchins conflict cards show up always side with the devils.
If you've reached the point of having all the materials and just short on the Hell connection, while waiting for more conflict cards keep grinding Casing and use it to Sell Information to the devils.
