When I arrived I was told that even though I had a reservation on ******* I could not stay there because they were not authorized to host foreigners. Their sollution was for me to call the hotel company and fix it, or call *******. I only had a data eSIM card. Eventually they sent me walking blindly through a horribly polluted and dirty alley to another hotel in the same chain (Treebo), but when I got there they said I could not stay there because I did not have a reservation. Thus the three hours on the phone with *******, who told me they could not book that hotel, even though the other hotel sent me there, because it showed not available on their website. Plus, I would have to wait for them to get authorization for me to cancel my original reservation without a penalty at the first hotel (the one that told me I could not stay there) and this would take up to 72 hours. Eventually I ended up staying 4 nights in a not very nice hotel by Treebo that I had not booked and that I knew nothing about because I could not cancel my reservation at the first Treebo even though they are the ones that told me I can not stay there. I could have reserved a much nicer hotel room for only a little more than this one. India seems to be a real mess. I have never encountered such disorganization. I can not get a train ticket because I need an Indian phone number to verify the IRCTC account. I can't get a SIM because online form only accepts 6 digit zip codes and US only has 5 digits.
