...........................................................

On the bulletin board of the hotel somebody posted a note: "Please don't lick the walls." The walls, you see, are made of salt. In fact, much of the hotel -- the roof, some beds, chairs, tables and bar -- are made of salt. Even the floor is covered with salt granules. Twelve guest rooms with 24 beds and shared bathrooms surround a central courtyard.
