There is something seriously weird about the map, apart from the fact that it 
purports to give "dirving directions"

From the looks of it, the hotel appears to be a stone's throw away from 
Crescent road and Mallige Medical Center that I visit. And two stones throws 
away from Hotel West End.

But the directions marked on the map on either side of the indicated location 
of the hotel are crazy. The map is oriented with the top of the map 
indicating South and the bottom is North. 

The road leading North West (downwards and to the right) from the Hotel is 
marked as "towards Bangalore railway station". That is wrong. Bangalore 
station is near the top right corner of the map. And the road heading 
Southeast (up and to the left) says "Towards Nrupathunga road" - a road that 
enjoys the dual distinction of having the least pronounceable name in  
Bangalore, as well as not being anywhere near the direction on the map. In 
fact the map says towards "Nrupatuga" road - a name that does not exist.
