Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room didn't have minimum amenities like A/c, a small refrigerator, an electric iron. Not even a wash cloth provided. I got a room on the third floor, with no elevator. And had to climb the stairs 3 to 4 times a day. I booked the Hoel on Expedia which clearly showed that breakfast was included in the price. When I when for breakfast next morning I was told I have to pay for breakfast. First day and till evening 2nd day there was no hot water in the bath room.Altogether a very bad experience.
