We found Turin lit up with a pure bright light, and, as Simon declared, "looking one of the most purtiest places like, as ever he'd clapped his eyes on." We stayed at Hotel Trombetta.

We had several reasons for doing this.
First, it was a good hotel.

I had stayed there before, and so I knew.

It was also near the station, and fairly near the place where, according to Simon's sketch, Kaffar was staying.

We got into the hotel just in time for dinner.
