Saraswata, India Jun 20, 2026 07:00:00 AM

Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: The rooms were good and beds were comfortable. The bathroom and amnities were also good. The distance from the Mall Road is very less which is really appreciable.

Negative: However, the approach roads are extremely inconvenient for anyone especially the elderly. The cafeteria is completely veg which is their prerogative of course but ordering food takes 1-1.5 hours because of the improper motor vehicle accessibility. The caferia food is not up to the mark and they specify complementary breakfast outside which anything you order is chargeable.

Summary: Stay only if your physically fit enough.

Reviewer Type: Extended Group

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Very nice staff, clean

Negative: I’m not ok with them charging extra payment portal fees that aren’t disclosed while booking. I paid an extra 4% for the razor pay fees. This should be included when I book. The required app is a huge hassle. I went to the front desk just to ask for towels, but they told me I had to order them through the app. I went back to my room, spent 20 minutes digging through emails for confirmation codes and completing check-in forms, and it still didn’t work. In the end I had to go back downstairs anyway and manually type my credit card info into their computer. For something that claims to “simplify travel,” it was incredibly clumsy. Sometimes you should just be able to ask for towels and get them. Checking in takes a long time and is a headache. It feels like you’re applying for a visa, so many questions that they have no need to know. What’s my occupation got to do with my hotel stay? The beds were too short for me. (183 cm) Hostels in general are problematic. People snore and are rude. Guys who weren’t even in our room were coming in and out all hours of the night and using our bathroom. We reported it to the front desk but by the morning they were already gone and there’s nothing to be done. And it’s not even that cheap! I was in a group of three and so it would have definitely cheaper elsewhere to get a hotel. And then we would have our own private space and wouldn’t have to deal with rude people. And maybe in a good location.

Summary: It’s fine, but a hotel is the better choice
