Delhi Digs

This is the alley where my hotel was located in Delhi. It’s an area called Paharganj. Lonely Planet calls it "hyperactive" and says that ""with its seedy reputation for drugs and dodgy characters – (it) isn’t everyone’s cup of tea." I’ll second that. I’d call it pure chaos and I wish I could remember reading that statement before I rented a room there. The odds are, I won’t rent a room in the area again if I ever go back to Delhi, I don’t care how well situated it is. There has to be better value elsewhere. There couldn’t be much cheaper. I’ve come to believe that $8 a night for a room, even in Delhi, may be a little too cheap.
