charm-free zone
Any place -- town, neighborhood, company, department, or corner occupied by a few people -- which is boring, unpleasant, or both.
That neighborhood is safe, but it's a charm-free zone.
Nobody on the fourth floor of that dorm has any sense of humor; it's a charm-free zone.
When you get to the party, stay away from the corner nearest the fire place; it's a charm-free zone.
