;
2/22 Kennet Lane; s ?675-1315, d ?785-1555; )
The non-AC
rooms here are reasonable value, a bit dingy and worn but kept clean enough, in shades of
brown.
Regal Lodge
( 28191122; 15 Kennet Lane; s/d ?380/490)
If you're in need of a cheap room near Egmore sta-
tion, the Regal can give you a small, dingy one with grubby walls. At least they change
the sheets and clean the rooms between occupants.
