Slightly to the east of the sanctuary stands a 23 m x 19 m rectangular two-storey masonry building with storage rooms on the ground level, a central pillared hall, and a triclinium without pavement. The roof was supported by arches. Fragments of stone and stucco decoration were found, as well as a small altar. It is supposed to have been a hostel for the pilgrims to the sanctuary, and/or an administrative building. It was not used after the middle of the fifth century AD.
