Arrive at hotel inside poor neighbourhood (6)
I believe the answer is:
ghetto
'poor neighbourhood' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'arrive at hotel inside' is the wordplay.
'arrive at' becomes 'get to' (synonyms).
'hotel' becomes 'h' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'inside' is an insertion indicator.
'getto' enclosing 'h' is 'GHETTO'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ghetto that I've seen before include "City quarter to which Jewish people were confined" , "Poor district" , "Densely populated slum area" , "Area for those deprived" , "Densely populated city slum" .)
