Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Basic and convenient location
No frills waterfront location close to Taj Palace. Make sure you don't get conned by the Optometrist they have waiting in reception - we had come down to meet our local guide and thought was him only to be told by our actual guide that Hotel Staff would not let them wait in reception for us - bizarre but we had a great day tour. Laundry is super cheap

Part of the building is under renovation. However, this did not affect my stay at all, as I was not in the room during the day. The hotel is very conveniently located for Coloaba, Fort, Kala Goda, etc.

Excellent unless you can afford the Taj
A friendly hotel with a yesteryear feel in a great area with a very nice food, view and service frequented by locals at an reasonable price

4/10 Poor

Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Great location but noisy
Hotel was undergoing renovation of the elevator while we were there in January and they worked and were noisy late into the night with no acknowledgement or apology from the management. The staff were very expectant of tips and would hang around uncomfortably waiting for a tip. Had not experienced that anywhere else in India. Other than this feed back, the hotel location is good and good base to explore old Mumbai.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Great location - less than great experience.
The reception staff need service training. Pretty rude about passport / identification procedures and would have lost my FRRO document had I not insist in finding it upon leaving. Room was pretty threadbare with marginal levels of cleanliness. Not again and would definitely not recommend.

Great service
The hotel is not in the greatest condition but the location is fantastic. A 2 minute walk to Raj Palace and Gateway of India. Beds were very comfortable, wifi was fantastic, breakfast was good and the staff were just incredible. I was a female travelling alone and they guided me so well, organising cars to take me around, wait for me to finish and take me to my next location for a very cheap price, when I wanted to convert cash, they called around to many places in order to find me the best rate. I can not thank the staff enough for the great service they provided.

It was OK by the Colaba standards. Some renovations were taking place though with a lot of drilling sound here and there.
