great locationfriendly nunsdining options

The location is GREAT near the train station. A short walk got me to the attractions. I found the nuns running the hotel charming. THEY WERE SO friendly. The area had shopping and dining options.

The street had scores of people BLOCKING IT due to an immigration office. The sign identifying the place was small.
