Great Manager; Uncompromising staff

We had a small baby accompanying us for the visa interview. Our train was to leave at a later time and we asked for some extra grace time. Initially the staff was uncompromising on our situation. However, the Hotel manager Mr. Balaji was very helpful. Full marks for the hotel manager and none for his other uncompromising staff, who did not even care when we said we had a small baby and wanted to charge double the room rent.

Very Bad.Dont opt

I had a stay in this hotel for 2 days with my wife.I was totally disappointed after seeing the room.It was smelling paint and full of construction noise,when i explained the staff about the paint smell he was smart enough to say they can provide a room freshener :-) . I got struck by his reply and understood no point in talking to this guy in the middle of night.I asked them to give another room and the condition of the room was little better and without any adoption we had to say there for 2 days.I won't recommend this hotel to anyone.

Rooms lack proper lighting

The room has dark coloured walls and the lighting is terrible. I felt like going out and not return after spending an hour inside the room. I wish it had been better. Everything else was good though. No complaints about the service and facilities. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Complimentary breakfast was good. Coffee was bad. If you have any business to attend to around the hotel (visit to U.S. Consulate for example)

The staff at the front desk was rude and Abussive and even threatened.... The sheets were not ckean, no hot water in the shower.... The control swithch for the lights were located behind the TV monitor and one has to really search for it. I dont understand the logic behind that...

Worst Hotel Booked on Hotel.com

It was Pathetic all the way. On photos looks a new hotel but was an Old property done with superficial facial treatment. To start with the Rooms are very small for the price we pay. More so, the 1st room the Toilet assembly was shaking. No Hot water having complained told the hotel has only Luke warm water.... pathetic. No good accessories provided. Having force to change the room, the new one was no different. My Chennai based Collegues was very surprise to see the rooms & even advice me to move out but couldnt has the entire money was paid to Hotel.com. The Worst the entire water line was choked from morning 6-11 AM. Had to use the bucket service for washroom. Its was so bad ... Please requesting all my Hotel.com friends to avoid this hotel.

Poor inventory for expedia booking

They have different inventory for Expedia booking. Rooms are very small and and not worth for money. Things are given only when you ask otherwise they do not give you.
