It looked a lowdown sort of place and the staircase smelt of the landlady's cats, but the rooms were cleaner than you would have expected. There were three cats -- white Angoras -- and they seemed usually to be sleeping in the hotel bureau.

The landlady was a thin, fair woman with red eyelids. She had a low, whispering voice and a hesitating manner, so that you thought: 'She can
't possibly be a French-woman.' Not that you lost yourself in conjectures as to what she was because you didn't care a damn anyway.
