“Extremely regrettable”

The Osaka Corona Hotel in western Japan has been eerily quiet and empty the past few weeks. "Our name is extremely regrettable," Kohei Fujii, the hotel's sales director, said with a sigh as he sat in an empty cafe in the lobby. 

A sign advertising discounted bottles of Corona beer stood at the front desk, but there haven't been many customers at the hotel to take up the offer.
