Then comes the bed, pillows were dirty with stains and when pointed to the staff, they arrogantly says what’s wrong with it however they did change it for another shabby ones. Floors and bathrooms weren’t cleaned in months it looked like and to top it up, they wouldn’t let us checkout unless we paid for the rooms again after having paid for it on your website. Overall most terrible experience and horrible stay at this hotel. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/181E689B3FF0BD06BF65860F58E650E106834B1E1744196414634.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/EAA3C61CBE4ABFE36454CBDD86D3EB6516B4648E1744196416565.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/482A4ABEAB38B4ECD88DF2804955C93E583699EE1744196416717.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/94F3CB1888168248FE256591713349484196B8511744196416140.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### PRASHANTH 15 Oct 2024 ##### PRASHANTH Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Judith 29 Feb 2024 ##### Judith Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### amit bhoir 6 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### amit bhoir Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Pedro Fernando 28 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel cerca de los ghats La estancia en general fue bien, el baño es de concepto indio, donde la regadera queda integrada al baño y se moja todo...
