This is a tired property, there was a hole in the floor covered by lino. Things broken and cracked. Yes, perfect location for ammeneties etc. But in room 1, do not stay. Things are rusty, shelves missing. Bed you can feel springs.

The reception desk was not attended at any time during the stay. I was directed to the room by an intercom at the front door and put the key in a drop box on checkout. This gave me a feeling the property was not very secure.

No brainer. Just choose this place.
I can’t understand why people spend the same amount of money to stay in a different hotel with no cooking facilities. This place might not be the Ritz but the money you can save because you can cook your own food instead of having to order in or eat out is great. Everything was clean and well maintained. I will be staying here again at some point.

Very tired shoddy workmanship and for the price it was very bad! Should stay in Travelodge or a premier in..apart from towels and bedding the place was soo tired and looked like a council flat in disrepair. Very noisy and hollow partition walls! Never again as I couldn’t sleep

I would really recommend this hotel since it will meet your privacy standards. It will make you feel at home. I really liked the kitchenette. It was very helpful. Needless to say that the staff were really helpful and respectful. I would really want to send my thanks to Nandeeesh because of his assistance to me on my last day.

Sort out check in ahead - like the Crystal Maze!
Interesting check-in. Couldn't work out how to get in once we were inside the building itself. There was a bank of six minisafes containing keys, each with a combination locks, to which we had no codes. We weren't sent any instructions other than the hotels.com confirmation. On the reception desk was a OYO card telling us how much they cared about our satisfaction with a phone number to call. I rang it, asking how we accessed our room. The gentleman I spoke to couldn't help. He needed a booking reference in a different format from that which I had. I asked if he could search for my booking by my surname. No he couldn't - only by arrival date or booking ref. So I asked him to search by arrival date. He did this - BUT HAD NO RECORD OF THE FLEXISTAY TULSI on OYO's system!!! How can this be possible? Anyway, after 8 minutes getting nowhere, I noticed another number - a Flexistay number. The gentleman on the end of this was helpful and told me my room number and that it was unlocked with the keys inside. Sorted! The room itself was OK. The floor could have done with a sweep. The road noise was terrible, despite double glazing. But there was a fridge cooker, iron, hairdryer, toaster, etc. The bed was comfortable enough and the room was a nice size.

In happy stay
Hi I stayed at Tulsi aparthotel before and it was really nice so booked it again .stayed at the same aparthotel and in the same room with my partner and it was really nice for the first day. The second day was not so good as my partner was sitting on the wheelie chair and one of the wheels came off causing my partner to a fall off the chair and hit his head.then on the Sunday night I went to go in the desk cupboard and the screws came through the holes in the to hinge.Now this make us have second thoughts about staying in this place again. As you don't expect somewhere where customers are staying to be that poorly maintained

Pleasant place to stay
I was amazed at how clean, organised Oyo Tulsi is. Rooms were as described. Well presented. I was able to use the kitchenette and nothing compares to a quiet, clean, serene well positioned apartment. Going places was as easy as 5 minutes. This is the place to stay when one is away from home.

Cupboard
Ok, it's a cupboard with a small window. Ok for just 1 night. The shower base overran with water because the water couldn't drain quick enough, so could flood. The Romainain Clearer, not too pleasant and pretends not to speak English - no good if you ask a question, but seems to understand when suits. The other Clearer is much more pleasant and helpful. Apart from that everything was fine and well.
