2/10 Poor

Poor service and not comfortable

Rude front office staff with zero courtesy! Rooms very hot, AC not good. No windows!! No exhaust in wash room! Over all horrible. Not good for business travellers. I won't stay here again or recommend to anyone. May be good for wedding reception guests who don't need to stay but just need a room to change etc.

This is a 2 Star Hotel with US standards

Bed sheets and towels are very old and stained. There is no tissue in the room. While hotel staff are nice but not many speaks English. Which is unusual for India. It is a 2 star hotel with US standards.

Nice property but hotel itself needs fixing up

Stayed 3 nights. Rooms need updating. Mixed results with staff: some very friendly while others not so pleasant. Great property for strolling down to waterfront.
