“This spot appeals to solo travelers valuing a dependable, straightforward stay; plus, bringing your cat along seems remarkably easy. From what I gather, though, keeping expectations modest appears wise: some rooms may show their age, and amenities lean toward basic. For unfussy visits focusing on function over frills, it could be a solid fit.”
