Average Stay

shikha j.loyalty-iconfamily

We had 4 rooms (2 x twin, 2 x double) rm nos were 402, 403 and 404, 405. The twin rooms were good, with enough ventilation thru windows, hooks to hang jackets etc on, enough table space. But the doubles were cramped, no hooks or enough table space. The worst was that both the double rooms had bed bugs. Both the couples in these rooms woke up each morning with bites. That just shows that these rooms were not cleaned properly in a long time. Another thing was that they don't give mineral water bottles ( norm is to provide 2 /day) all other hotels in our entire trip used to give the normal plus extra if required. Only the location of this hotel was good. Food was also very very oily. Hence overall not happy with this hotel.

Hotel location is good (near clock tower and mid of market ) but the food is average not many items also the breakfast menu is too limited. Taste is average also. Some issues with the washroom (jet spray is not working properly and shower as well. As per my view the hotel is bit costly as per their service.
