easy accessslow elevatorsbarking dogs

the location had easy access to places i needed to get to around the city.

the elevators seemed ancient and slow i half expected king farouk to step out i think they were original. the breakfast buffet food didn't taste particularly fresh i saw some questionable pastries i avoided. also, street dogs barked all night it sounded like a canine convention.
