"Pros: The area is so bad even the indian taxi driver said "you no stay here, this the worst slum in Chennai " then when i walked in and said" ive got a room booked" he said "no" so i showed him the booking and then he said " all hotels in this part of the city have been banned from taking non indian residents " so i had to frantically seach for another hotel, but i did eventually get one in a bit better area Nowhere in the booking.com advert did it say no non indians" ~Nigel
