Dirty room, a bit of a walk to train station

I stayed here for two nights before heading to Agra. When i checked in, the bathroom was not clean and the sheets and towels all had stains and marks on it. Maybe just a common theme with 3 star hotels in India but this was a little bit worse. The hotel is also a bit of a walk to the train station and in a pretty sketchy area too. There are better options out there.

Great hotel, value for money, very pleasant staff

Although the hotel is in a little shady location in paharganj, service was great and staff were very helpful. Hot water, air conditioning was great. Room had one minor issue, it smelt a little of naphthalene balls which were used in adjacent washroom. Will stay again regardless.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities

Mediocre at best

Cons: walls, blinds were filthy; furniture was dusty; wi-fi was weak; staff never cleaned our room during a 3~night stay; walls were very thin so the room was noisy. Pros: Close to the main train station — within walking distance if you don’t mind a stroll through filth and chaos. Front desk staff was helpful. A/C worked well. By international standards it rates 0 stars; by Indian standards it’s a bit below average.

BEST VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY!!

If you are looking for a hotel on a budget, this hotel is your answer. I stayed at optimum for 8 days and I only have great things to say about this hotel and the staff! I am half Indian, half Nepali, from California, USA. I came to Delhi alone for my wedding shopping. I was looking for a safe hotel in a convenient location. I came across Optimum baba hotel on Expedia and loved the reviews. Being aware of the risks of a woman traveling alone in India , I was a little nervous about staying in Delhi by myself, but my concerns were soon put to ease by the staff. They went up and beyond to make my stay comfortable~from checking up on me regularly to helping me find the right people for all my wedding shopping needs~they even went to the extent of finding me a stitching lady who could stitch all my wedding clothes in a short time. All the staff are pleasant and super helpful and I honestly can not thank them enough for all their help, but I want to give a special shot out to Vishal (the chef), Kuddues (room service) and Vijay (the front desk receptionist). Vishal's food is dilicious!! I mostly ate at the hotel. and didn't get sick once. He was a great friend and always made sure that my belly was full with yummy food. Another HUGE shout out to Kuddus. He is the nicest guy who always has a big smile on his face. I was freaking out about my extra luggage and packing on my last day. He was so kind to get me the weighing machine and help me pack.

Hotel was ok

The neighbourhood is not appealing at all but the hotel itself was ok. The restaurant food was great but the restaurant area could be improved appearance wise. The stuff organised a cab guy for us who wasn't very helpful & ended up conning us so hopefully they improve on the services they help setup otherwise the stay was ok

Good-value hotel

Well appointed room, but the beds were not so comfortable to sleep in so it was somewhat disappointing for us. The bathroom was huge and shower was excellent. We found the staff to be helpful and friendly. We would stay here again, but probably need to change your beds selections.

Ideally located & super clean rooms

I had a super clean room on the second floor. Very well equipped with good beds and a clean bathroom. The food was delicious, the staff a bit slow especially at the time of departure otherwise, were very helpful. The hotel is ideally located, about a 15-20 stroll to the main market where there are lots of shops and restaurants.

A good stay overall

Conveniently located and everything is within a short walk. We did not eat food in the hotel as there are many good restaurants nearby which was affordable and served good food. The beds were nice, not too hard. The slight downside was the room was a bit small for us and the windows did not open properly apart from a good stay overall.

Nicest budget hotel I've stayed in

Definitely the nicest budget hotel I have ever stayed in. The rooms were spotlessly clean and atmosphere was very nice. An added bonus is that it is within walking distance of the train station and many metro stations are only 15 minutes walk away.

Honor what the booking clearly says.

I booked late night from an airport and my booking clearly said 11pm to 11pm (24 hours). But upon arrival at the hotel, at 4am, the receptionist said it would only be until noon (8 hours). Had no alternative so settled for 1pm (9 hours). Just want the hotel to honor what the booking says.
