Hostelry where one is always said to be at home (3)
I believe the answer is:
inn
'hostelry' is the definition.
('inn' can be a synonym of 'hostelry')
'said to be at home' is the wordplay.
'said to be' shows a homophone (sound like).
'at home' becomes 'in' ('in' can be similar in meaning to 'at home').
'in' sounds like 'INN'.
'where one is always' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for inn that I've seen before include "Jamaica, for one" , "Commercial premises" , "Old hostelry for travellers" , "Pub providing food and accommodation" , "Possibly Jamaica" .)
