"Tout a été parfait, merci ! Accueil impeccable (personnel souriant et soucieux de rendre service, on vous porte les valises), on m'a même acheté mon ticket de métro pour partir, très tôt le matin, parce que j'avais peur de ne pas pouvoir le faire à la station et l'application ne prend pas les cartes internationales ! C'est très propre, neuf, et très bien placé : un peu en retrait donc au calme, mais à 15mn à pied du métro, près de l'aéroport, près d'un très joli temple (Vadapalani, 20mn à pied)....
