    Always avoid the capital cities and commercial hubs for staying. For eg: If you want see Tamil Nadu, instead of staying in Chennai, go to Trichi or Madurai and all other major destinations are kind of equidistant. If you are in Karnataka, instead of Bangalore, go and stay in Mysore, which will cheaper compared to other. In Kerala, instead of Trivandrum or Kochi, try Kozhikode (Calicut). All the second or third tier cities have good facilities and connectivity.

      There's a reason why it's called the City of Joy. It's a city with a soul, the cultural capital of India.
      also, a metro ticket which would cost upwards of 100 rupees for a journey would cost you max 25 rupees for the same here in Kolkata.
