Terrible Experience at Hotel Shiva Shagar Near Chennai Central

I had the worst experience at Hotel Shiva Shagar near Chennai Puratchi Thalaivar Dr. MGR Central Railway Station. I ordered a Butter Dosai, and it was served in an unclean bowl on a banana leaf. To make matters worse, the dosai didn’t even have a hint of butter! When I inquired, the staff was indifferent.

Afterward, I ordered a tea, which cost an outrageous Rs 42. It was barely sweetened and tasted awful, with a strange, chewy texture. Even a Rs 10 tea elsewhere would have been better. To top it all off, the receptionist’s attitude was dismissive, saying, "Eat if you want."

Overall, a disappointing experience I wouldn’t wish on anyone. Avoid this place if you’re looking for decent food or good service.

Good for a quick veg meal, but not the best...
