Total chaos. I paid for two nights when I checked in, but was told that I had to check out after only one nights. After I provided proof that I had a reservation for two nights, I was allowed to stay for the second night. Then after the second night, I was first told that I had to check out and re-check in and change rooms. Then after I was packed and ready to check out/in, I was told that they were trying to allow me to stay in the same room. The facility is charmingly rundown. Some other issues. No hot water in the shower. The restaurant waitstaff "accused" me of being a freeloader. Etc.

Our 1 Night and 2 days stay at the UK was phenomenal. The staff was active and helpful. I want to shout out for Santosh (HouseKeeping), Executive Chef during our stay, Bheru Singh (Office Manager), and other staff who have been interactive, watchful, and supportive during our stay. The delicacies and ambience was amazing. I would take Taj UKP during my second visit to Gwalior.
