Satya's blog - Atlanta trip 2008

Went to Atlanta. Stayed at Hotel Hilton near the airport. Room had small roaches, had to move rooms. Hotwire says, 4 star hotels at 2 star prices. True, also get 3-star rooms. Was nothing special. Good view, the kid enjoyed watching aircraft. Hotel lobby etc were bling, rooms were ordinary. Shrug.

Indian restaurants were a waste. "Chat Patti" was way, way too spicy. Liked the Ikea store. Freeways were big, busy. Shrug. Saw tornado damage on tall downtown buildings. Ate at original Chick-fil-a in Hapeville. Parking in downtown is a pain. Driving anywhere is a pain, either freeways or lots of red lights.

Atlantic Station is a crazy place -- two levels of underground parking with a small-town-wannabe area above. In the middle of downtown.
